A wife and mother who signs
herself as Just a Housewife, has
been wondering just where she will
fit into this scheme OF national
defense. She writes:

Dear Just q Housewife: In

there are other women over

them only because their jobs are

work Is every bit as necessary.
It's the task Of upholding the
nations morale.
And that small phrase-up-
holding the nations morale
covers multitude Of tasks.
There's the job of seeing that
the sick are cared for; that the

that the young are kept busy

He perceived that hysteria had
seized the Italian pilot, that the
crew and gunners were making no
attempt to fight. So. increasingly
bold. he dived closer and more
insistently until the Fiat was near
to the sea surface.

my guns were out of commits

"WelI, sir. I didn't dare to tell

Job because the Italians weren't

from their bases In daylight. So

One late afternoon Christie was

Christie nosed his Spitfire down

conferred between the cross hairs

was acting jittery. So / circled
around and tried again, thinking
maybe the jam would untangle
somehow. But, no. Those dash

This time Christie was genuinely
angry. The Fiat was wriggling
and squirming furiously. losing
height rapidly in fluttery circles
No answering machine gun bursts
came from its rear gunners, no
