Mahogany for Clocks

Most good hall clocks of bygone
centuries have been made of ma
hogany, and today they are still be-
ing made of this wood. One manu-
facturer of distinction who uses only
mahogany, not only calls attention
to the rich beauty of thu wood and
how age mellows and enhances its
luster, but also gives these technical;
reasons tnr using it: Because it
is moss impervious to temperature
and humidity, it holds its shape bet
ter, does not swell or shrink or dis

Biz Game Hunters Must
Wear Bright Red

Local vendors report increas
ing sales of big game licenses
and tags as the open season con-
tinues.
That tragedy may be prevented.
attention is called to the statute
which reads:
1T shall be unlawful for any
person to hunt any of the big
game ANIMALS in the state under
any of the provisions of the law
of the state without such person
wears a cap or hat, shirt, jacket,
coat or sweater of bright red
color"
The intent of the law is to
make hunters as conspicuous be-
fore each other as possible. Fir
ing at moving foliage is to be
condemned as behind 1t may be a
human being. Many a tragedy
among hunters has been caused
by failure to determine what the
target was before pulling the
trigger.
Each licenes bears two metal
tags, one for all elk and the other
for deer. the hunter being re.
quired to attach one of them to
his kill" The license, which
in reality is a report, is return
able to the State Fish & Game
Commission at the close of the
season November 49,, the in
formation being used as record
of state big game hunters and
the magnitude of their activities.

with the support of our air forces,
that enemy observation and inter

countered Y Operations toda

plan
In initial crossings of the 'front.'
ier south of Sidi Omar contact
with the enemy at first was slight,
making it possible for British mcc-
ani2ed columns to cut deeply into
hostile territory. But, because Of
the speed of the Imperial advance,
a hCad-on clash with the Axis de-
Tenders was not considered far
distant.

BY ROBERT P. MARTIN

SHANGHAI, Nov 20. oUPl-Japa-
nese quarters expressed optimism
regarding Japanese American rela-
tons todar and reported that Jap
an had Offered to stay out of the
European war and guarantee Sibe-
ria's integrity in return for relaxa-
ton of American British freezing
regulations.
1t also was claimed that in neeo-
tiations at Washington Special En-
Voy Saouro Kurusu had offered a
promise that Japan would refrain
from pressing her southwark eX-
pansionist policy. 1t was said that
in return for lifting of the American
embargo against Japan Kurusu had
expressed japanese Willingness to
accept the good offices of the United
States in negotiating peace between
Japan and China
The japanese claims were received
with reserve but interest in diplo-
matte quarters.
SFEECHES EXPLAINED
A japanese source said the belli-
cose speeches before the Tokyo par
lament by Foreign Minister Shige-
nori Togo and Premier Gen. Hideki
ToJo were designed to prevent an
outbreak by radical. pro-Axis ele-
mentS in Japan who allegedly were
anxious TO sabotage any possibility
OF rapprochement with the United
States.
II was said that in event of an
amicable settlement of Japanese
American problems Tojo who is
a strict disciplinarian. would send
firebrands in the army to remote
posts and would arrest pro-Axis
civilians.
WOULD SAVE FACE
In such a situation. the japanese
said, TOTO would be in position to
concoct face saving formula and
strengthen MS hand by asserting
that Japan was achieving her main
obJective-settlement OF the China
affair.
Informed japanese here whose
information in the past has proved
reliable said that KuruSu went TO
washington With Instructions to
admit frankly that J&panS current
econcali, S!tdltiCn Was difficult. Il
was said that kurlsu was instructed
to pciat CT benefits tAat woult
accrue to 10th Japan and the Uritet
States If the shipping OF both coun-
tries were again to ply the Pacific
Neutral observers here who re-
Gently have visited Chungking said
there were increased demands there
for a Japanese-Chinese settlement
under the auspices Of the United
States.

Ellsworth Elliot, IT,,
 Has asInformative Book
''West Point in the COnfederacy' Contains Important
 Data and Statistics

find West Point in the Confeder- acy" more valuable as presenting statistical information than as an historical narrative, although the chapters in the first book are filled with interesting accounts of such men as Davis and Polk; Davis, Bragg and His Generals; Davis and Beauregard; Stonewall Jackson and A. P. Hill, and Collapse of the Con- federacy.
 It will also interest the reader to know that BOA graduates of the United States Military School served in the Confederate army. None of them is living. The author has gone to no little research in outlining and summarizing the military careers Of these men. He lists the graduates alphabetically, their year from West Point; then also lists the class rank of graduates who served in the war, as well as those who received breyets. Likewise of interest is 8 table of graduates from West Point who died while serving in the Con- federate army.
 The hrSt chapter or MT. EItOt , book tells of the West Point Cadet before the Civil War. In his first sentence he tells the reader what the present day candidate for West Point also knows, that is, "candi- dates for admission to the D. S. Military Academy were selected by Congressmen or were appointed by the President at 1arge'". At that time candidates had 8 high school education, not all but some, a col Iege education. Occasionally can- didate was educated by a private tutor. Much of the life at the mill tary school at that time, he said, can only be known by conjecture, and accurate and chronological records of the life were not gener- ally kept by the student who had no time for this.
 Throughout chapters of the book the readers vii find data that is valuable. The book will be princi- pally enjoyed by those who have a liking for military training and may have had some particular associa- tion with army life and training.
