THE EDGE OF DARKNESS, by
william Woods-This book of Nor
ways valiant little people" will rank
as one of the great novels of this
war. A handful of fisher-folk with the
aid of the British who supply them
with arms, plot revolt against their
Nazi conquerors. Against this heroic
theme runs the counterpart of human
passions and loyal ties.
DON PEDRO AND THE DEVIL, by
Edgar Maass-Don Pedro recalled
these words: what is a man proflted
if he shall gain the whole world, and
lose his own soul2" This story of old
Spain is very adventurous and excit-
ing and filled with love and compass
sion. In his desire for atonement the
scene is set for one of the most
thrilling episodes in this extraordin-
airy book
ARMY DOCTOR, by Darwin Engel
DIR. Courtney had shaved and sacri-
feed for his medical degree. and he
intended to devote the rest of his
life to making money. Then came
the u. S Armys call for medical
men. An absorbing story of the max
ing of a doctor and patriot.
TELL TT TO LAUGHING STARS,
by Edward Havill-This is a percep-
tive novel of a young mans desire to
meet a double challenge to prove he
was good for the life he had chosen
while resolving his peculiarly personal
problem. How his efforts were COM
plicated is told with subtle insight.

The most effective exercise for los
ing weight was said by some wag to
be shaking the head.
Unlike many so-called wise cracks,
this one is sadly weighted with truth.
It is fact that no amount of rolling,
bending, swimming, walking or rid
ing will take the place of it if you are
already overweight.
1t may be more important to your
health and effectiveness in the war
emergency to reduce, if you are over
weight, than it is to put on weight
if you are not up to par.
And the only way to do it is to
eat less food. That means not only
sticking to planned diet for three
meals a day but saying "no" to be-
tween meal and going snacks,
to second helpings and to those false
friends, the afternoon pick-me- up
whether it is pop or something
stronger.
The first step is a physical examin-
alton and expert advice about your
diet. The second needs more will
power but, fortunately, the longer you
follow instructions, the easier it will
be to say "No."
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.
Mrs. G.. L. My hair comes out in
spots about the size of a quarter about
every six minths but comes in again.
I have had it for several years. What is
the cause?
Ans. Badness in patches is called
alopecia areata and the cause is not
known. The earlier in life it begins,
the less favorable is the outlook. Many
milder cases get well without treat
ment and some resist treatment for
long periods. Effective treatment is
complicated and must be supervised
by physician.
r. C. What is the best way to clean
dental plates? What causes black
stains?
Ans. First your dental plates should
be polished and all deposits removed

When Kathryn Grayson was
twelve years old she gave her first
addition, although she didn't real
ize it at the time. She was living
with her family in st. Louis and
because they loved music, she was
often taken to the outdoor amphi-
theater of the st. Louis Municipal
Opera House. One afternoon she
arrived early and in a moment of
childish Standardization walked
upon the stage and sang an aria,
which she knew by heart. Her only
listener was an elderly porter who
was busting off the seats. He
stopped when she began to sing
and leaning on his broom listened
entranced. At the end of the num-
Der he applauded heartily. Little
Kathryn was delighted at her sue
cess and says it really started her
on her career. She smiles when
she tells this story, however, be-
cause she learned afterwards that

Lee Claims Increasing
Support for Ban on
Army Camp Liquor
Measure Challenged as
| Opening Wedge for
NutionuI Prohibition
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Mounting support was claimed
today by Senator Lee, Democrat.
OF Oklahoma in his tight to ban
liquor from Army and Navy
camps.
As both sides took advantage OF
. one-day recess to marshal forces
for . possible showdown tomorrow
on Senator Lees bone e-dry" amend
ment to Z bill lowering the draft
age to 18, the Oklahoman told re-
porters some Of his senatorial sup
porters were people who don't
favor general prohibition"
But" he declared, they are for
my amendment"
The author of the teen age draft
bill, Senator Gurney, Republican,
OF South Dakota, said he hoped no
controversial amendment would
slow up It's passage.
Assailed 1t Prohibition Wedge.
Opponents OF the Lee amendment,
which would bar the possession, sale,
gift or use Of any alcoholic beverage,
including beer, in and around serv-
ice posts, viewed 1t as possible
entering wedge for q return to ma
tional prohibition. The dry zones
around camps would be delineated
by the Secretary Of War, and, op-
ponents said, might embrace large
population centers. The bill also
would ban prostitutes from the
designated areas.
what possible objection could
there be to the elimination Of liquor
in the Army camps and the area
around them?" Senator Lee asked.
Either they sell liquor in the
camps or they don't. II it is sold it
should be eliminated in the interest
Of military efficiency"
The draft bill, approved by a vote
OF 345 to Is in the House Saturday
comes up for debate in the Senate
tomorrow by an interparty agree.
ment Gen. George C. Marshall
and Admiral Ernest j. King OF the
Joint general staff have recommend
ed the lower age limit as a military
necessity.
Roll Call Expected.
Senator Norris, Independent, Of
Nebraska, only surviving Senator
who voted against this Nations
entry into the World War, ques'
toned the need Of drafting young
sters at this time, but like many
others, said he was inclined to gt
along with the general stairs recon-
mendations.
If Senator Lee can gain a rol
call on his amendment, several Sen
ators said, chances for It's adoption
are favorable. In the last few
months, numerous Senators hav'
inserted In the Congressional Rec
ord petitions from churches ant
other organizations urging the pas
sage of Senate bill 860-almost iden
tical with the Lee amendment-in
troduced by the late Senator Shep
pard Of Texas.
To gain a roll call, Senator LIE
will have to have the seconding
of at least one-fifth Of the Sena
tors present. He said he had no
polled the membership, but tina
several Republicans as we'll as Dem
ocrats had promised their support
