| 10 Girls Per Man
Is r. A. +. Idea
|Of Washington

Reports that there are at least
10 women for every man in the Ma
tional Capital have reached the
ears of lonely British flyers on duty
at Carberry, Manitoba, Canada, ac-
cording to a letter received yester-
day by Commissioner John Russell
Young, addressed TO Your Lord
ship by two R. A. F. men there
The writers, signed as Charles
DAILY and Douglas Holt, asked Lord
Mayor" Young to do something about
the situation in the hope some lone
some girl here would at least write
to them under the address: 632523,
A. C. 1. DAILY C, Hut u B, R. A. F..
33 S. F. T. S., Carberry, Manitoba,

Mr.. Young's Office merely passed
the letter to the press. l. reads:
please excuse me for taking this
liberty, but I wonder would it be
asking too much to put me in touch
with some of the beautiful girls I
read about in the Philadelphia In
quirer. The report said there were
at least 10 women to every man, so
perhaps some of them might write
to my pal and myself.
1--WE have been out here 10 months
and it gets lonely even for us up
here. We are 100 miles from the
nearest big town so you can imagine
how fed up we get at times.
Once again, please excuse me for
taking this liberty and I shall be
looking forward to a reply from some
of your girls in the near future"

RipppSf Mess Hall in U. S.

tographers, radiomen. submarine
personnel and others.
Biggest Mess Hall In U. S.
Women visitors yesterday were
impressed by the largest mess hall
in the Nation, capable OF seating
5000 persons at time, after they
have served themselves, cafeteria
style, on metal trays that are di-
vided into compartments. All the
visitors ate with the men, sitting
on folding stool-type seats at long
tables. The food was good, plentiful
and substantial.
"You ought to see the boys eat,
especially when they first come
here" said one escorting officer.
"You ought to see them eat break
fast. They may have seconds, and
I have seen them go back for full
plates of thirds. I don't know
where they put it.
Women were impressed by kitch-
en-or galley-where the flour for
bread and pastry comes down from
upstairs and is weighed into correct
portions automatically; where the
temperature of the dough is con-
trolled by mechanics and where
great troughs of mincemeat for pies
were being stirred by paddle which
might have seen earlier days as a
boat oar.
Ais Cooks Working.
One hundred and sixty-five cooks
and bakers operate in this galley,
and $50 plain mess cooks. Three
thousand loaves of bread are baked
there daily. The stewards who deal
with this mass of foodstuffs admit
that the cost per man has gone up
2 cents per day within the last nine
months.
Visitors yesterday also saw class
rooms where the enlisted men learn
some of the traditional lessons of the
sea. One has a huge blackboard
arrangement with outlines of two
ships. A switch box controls the va
rious types of ships lights, showing
which are running lights, anchorage
lights, towing lights and distress
lights. From this chart and the
accompanying lectures the dry-land
seamen learn also the rules of the
seaway-which ship passes which,
according to international agree
ment. In another classroom the
seamen were practicing knot tipping
and learning what to do with the
bitter end" (This has nothing to
do with the connotation we now
give the term; it is simply the end
OF the rope all knots are made from.)
Help for Homesickness.
In the same classroom a chief
petty officer with 40 years of service
in the Navy discussed the differences
between the old days and the pres
ent. He frequently is used as
counselor for the recruits, to explain,
in fatherly way, some of the things
that make homesick boy homesick
and help him rationaliZe his troubles.

the jamestown Exposition was cele-

some change in the situation might
result from Japan's increasing
need for fish. a staple food Of the
japanese people.

Dimond interpreted Japan's ac-

The Alaskan delegate said that
the entrance of Russia into the

And those weeks when you couldn't

you would sit and admire her and
Leonard did, too. That was when Moth

baby was something she hadn't reck-

a stronger hold on Leonard than she
did. She made her first move when
she hired nurse. You didn't ever want

That convinced Leonard. Anyone as
familiar as the gardeners daughter
certainly could be trusted and besides
she had been under his mothers guild
ance all these years. You were back at
the big house then. In the spring Moth

the heart to argue with Leonard when
he told you about it. I'd never forgive

No, you won't let her get you down.
