LIGHTS

I see so many brilliant lights Down in the river valley. They burn as bright as ever Far out around us, And just beyond the river. We'll hope that nothing comes To mar this brilliant sight, Should we ever seem to lose our way, On some very dark or dismal night. They always show us the best way, Should storms by chance to come, We can view them far away Or very near at home. We know about that little lighthouse, Away down there near the shore Someone stays there all the time In the very darkest weather, And also when it's very fine. Let us keep our lights aburning Tn these dark and dismal days, And keep a constant faithful lookout, And guard our footsteps faithfully And be alert in all our ways And if the yellow jackets Attempt to get too near, Tn their quest for more and more, We will just burn up their nest, And sting them ore and ore. Then we view those northern lights Away up there toward the pole. We view that wondrous sight It is always new and yet 'tis very old

IHawaii'S Headache: 150,5OO JapS Among Its Population of 5OO,OOO
BY nETTY MACDONALD

NEA Service Stan C0FreSp0nuenS
 Honolulu, April 1 - If there's a knottler problem of this war in the Pacific than what to do about the Japanese in Hawaii, then harassed military ofiicials of that beleaguered outpost want no part of 1t,
 Figure every island Japanese as suspect, and you have i59,500 of the territory's half million popula- ton as potential enemies, Give those with American citizenship benefit of the doubt and you reduce the number to S5,lsS, which is still enough to populate Q siEeable city,
 It's Q nice problem that Nuthort- ties are trying to untangle as an Incidental = though possibly very crucial - part of the war with Japan. Many thinking Islanders consider wholesale evacuation as impractical and ridiculous, Employ ment of tough tactics might under- mine the morale of the majority of loyal Japanese. Yet liberallty might let the wiliest workers slip through the net.
 Until that December morning when Nippons planes blasted Pearl Harhor, the loyalty of Ha- walls Japanese was principally matter of academic interest,
 GAVE JAP SAILORS
 HEARTY WELCOME
 Local Japanese held parties when Japanese warships came to town, proudly escorted the Nip lpanese sailors to Honolulu points of interest, which more than once overlooked important military oh- jectives. Citizens now ruefully re- member the smirking little sailors in cheap cotton uniforms, blithely snapping pictures from city heights,
 But the first bomb on Pearl Harbor was the signal that sent a half dozen hunting agencies into action. The Honolulu FBI led the pack, flanked by, Army and Navy Intelligence officers, They were joined by the newly organized espionage division of the Honolulu Police, by military police and the shore patrol, immi- grafton officers and civilian agents.
 Directing the roundup was Ro- bert l.. Shivers, FBT chief for Fla. wall and G-man of la years eX- perlence. He did the job so smooth ly that most Honoluluans weren't aware of the drive. No one outside the authorities knows how many

 No" Christie whispered. Please don't talk, Tommy. I can't bear any more"
 Tommy's face turned red. Well, of all the pretty llow-do-you- dos. A grand reception, wouldn't call this"
 I'm sorry, Tommy, honestly I am. But I'm really feeling ill.,
 She closed the door after him. She walked about, emptying the ash tray, moving an ornament on the mantel, stirring the fire. Finally she sat down and let the |. tears come.
 He had come home that day, but he had not come near her, He had been with Sandra. She could see them together. Sanora lock- ing up at Bart, her dark hair like 8 cloud about her small face, her red poppy mouth lifted, her big dark eyes laughing at Bart.
 Tt didn't take her long," Chris tie thought, wildly. "I1l write him." she decided desperately I'll tell him I've found out there $ someone else. He'll know what l mean. I'll offer him his freedom, and I'll say want mine"

CHRISTIE LOSES SOMETHING
HENRY
CHAPTER TX

,Thre things - Tommy's letters to the family, Sandra's job, and the loss of Stephens were the sparks that touched of the marital explo- sion.
 Tommy's bitterness and his petty Jealousy of Bart, smoldering always near the surface, were all too ap- parent in those brief notes home. He didn't see much of Sandra, he wrote. Girls always went for in- signias and stripes, and it didn't matter whether they were worn by single or married men. Girls were funny that way. Sandra had her entertainers job and gave Bart credit for landing it. And was she appreciative. Oh boy! Bart was con suited about all the entertainment plans. You'd think he was the whole flying squadron.
 Mrs. Cotton said irritably: T think Tommy has a right to be angry. Fhy should Bart waste any time with this girl? Bart has a wife, and if I do say so, lovely one. I think all this is a reflec- ton on you, Christie"
 "All this?" Christie's tone was indignant. I'm not sure what you mean. You know how Tom my is - he makes the hugest mountains out of the tiniest mole hills. I happen to believe Bart loves me. Just because he is po- lite to Sandra, Tommy sees green"
 T suppose I'm not very mod ern," Mrs. Cotton retorted. But I don't believe in married men flirting around"
 Christie bit back excited words. She was furious with her mother v furious with Bart because she felt humiliated.
 T simply won't let anybody create trouble between us," she told herself. But her heart was heavy as she thought of Sandra, who was in a position to see Bart SO often, and who had no scruples about trespassing.
 Christie plunged more deeply in war work Red Cross, home defense, victory garden meetings. Jan told her she was running g race with her = to see which one would be the skinny girl in the circus.
 And your eyes = they're not exactly filled with happiness, my dear sister," Jan said. Wouldn't it be funny If you and I sat down And had truth game. It might help, but we can't. We're not made that way"
 ~In the first World War, they always said 'c'est la guerre'," Christie said slowly. T guess it's s&iil the war. It is upsetting 6 lot of applecarts."

villion. There's nothing better for shaking of a blue gose than a good gallop."
 All right!" Christie got to her feet, laughing.
 They were halfway across the pack when she called. You're cheating-on my side. No fair"
 Stephen quickened his pace and they were suddenly running close together. Tn the gathering dusk she failed to see the hole that seemed to open up suddenly in her path. She stumbled and would have fallen, but Stephen caught her, holding her close for a mo- ment.
 Christie could hear the pound ing of his heart. She drew away, speaking breathlessly Thanks, Stephen. I might have had a spill"
 T couldn't bear for you to be hurt" he said in a low tone.
 Christie avoided his gaze, and they walked on slowly. She was troubled. She must be more cas- ual in the future. Stephen had sounded = oh, well, romantic was the word.
 Tommy came home the following weekend.
 He loked around Christie's small living room with critical eyes. How does Bart like it9"
 "Oh, fine" Christie answered, without animation.
 Not good, not bad - but If 1t suits you, two, gues ist's okay. I thought I was coming in with aBrt last Friday, but didn't stand in with the Powers-That-Be, so I didn't get leave"
 But Bart didn't come home last week end" Tommy looked astonished. Then he laughed: Don't hand me that casual stuff, It was Friday, the 18th. Remember now? Bart and -shrcmtshtmtshtcmshcshrcmshcms Sandra were driving of and I re- minded them what day 1t was. Bart said 1t was lucky for him no matter what numerals were tackled on the day, and Sandra said she took her luck where she found it. Remember now? Did you have any bad luck?"
 "Yes, I remember" Christie said in a low tone. "Yes, I had some bad luck"
 What, for instance?"
 1T lost something" Christie's voice choked.
 She was fighting to be calm, to hold her head high until Tommy was gone. No use to let him know that he had pulled her world down for her in the last few mo- ments.
 You are looking pretty low, Christie. Bart !s, too. When told him SO, he threatened to pitch me out. He's a sorehead lately if IT ever saw one. Have you had q

 ridiculous" Christie spoke impatiently. T had been dating Bart three years"
 "Oh, dating! The time you really find out about man Is when the kitchen stove smokes and the kitchen sink is stopped up. Those Htle minor things, my dear"
 oh hush," Christie said. May be Bart was disappointed in her Maybe marriage had proved dull and different from what he had expected. Maybe he would have been ahppier with some girl who was fun instead of sober some- body who was taking the war seriously.
 She was sitting in little park across from the apartment the next Friday afternoon. Stephen found her there huddled under Jan's plaid coat - looking dejected and very much like litle girl.
 T thought you'd be here" he said. T know your schedule SC well, could meet you almost any time-anyWhere."
 You are not that godo," Chris tie said, moving over so he could sit beside her on the weather beaten bench T hop from place to place so fast can't keep ur with my schedule, myself"
 I'm a pretty good detective, Stephen said, smiling. Tt didn't take me minute to know why got my job back. There I was -jobless,( one day and the next day called back. MT. Wainwright told me someone in whom he had great confidence had confidence ir me. This somebody told him he was too big and fine to listen tc a lot of youthful and intolerant chatter. Funny thing, Christie, ii hadn't been so worried about Mother, I'd have wanted to stay fired"
 "Stephen!"
 Yep. There's something I want to do. I appreciate what you did anyway. I think you are abso- lutely the most wonderful girl ir the world"
 His words were soothing to the open wound that was Christie's I hurt pride. Stephen was a dear He thought everything she die was right-wonderful. Bart didn't He saw all her faults, and he probably wished she were a. lighthearted as Sandra. There's htle old blue goose on my shoulder" Christie said T can't seem to sahke him oil. :
