Gen. Bsbee served in the Civil

Gen. Bisbee's career was called AN
inspiration to the soldiers who fight
for democracy today" by Gen.
George C. Marshall, Army Chief of
Staff, who on learning Of Gen.
Bisbee's illness wired:
Your expression Of confidence
that the democracies will emerge
victorious from this great struggle
is characteristic of a brilliant soldier
who gave so many years IN the
service of his country"
Gen. Bisbee had been a soldier
with Maj. Gen. Arthur Macarthur,
father of Gen. Douglas Macarthur
He kept in close touch with recent
military developments by having
articles read to him.
During his 102d birthday inter-
view January % he waved aside
discussion of present-day military
affairs, preferring to leave that sub
ject to those better qualified than
myself"
Gen. Bisbee was commissioned a
second lieutenant in 1862 by Presi-
dent Lincoln and remained in the
Army until 1902. He was made
brigadier general by President
Theodore Roosevelt.
On his 10lst birthday, Gen. Bis
bee had as visitors Secretary of War
Stimson and Gen. Marshall, who
decorated him with the Order of
the Purple Heart and brought con-
gratulations from President Roose-
welt.
He is survived by a son, Raymond
B. Bisbee OF Albany, N. Y, and a
daughter. Mrs. Thomas Fefel of

Learn TO Face Solitude
Don't Run Away From II

THE TROUBLE with most Of
us moderns is that we never
learn how 10 be alone.
From the moment OF birth
we're surrounded with clutter
and clash and clang. There 5
always some one TO talk 10,
something 10 see, some place
10 go.
We're never still-never really
cast upon our own resources.
We never repoSe within our
selves. Nor face and find our
selves in solitude.
Indeed, the very thought OF
being alone gives most of US
the screaming meamieS. We may
for one night endure the eX-
treme agony of staying at
home with nothing 10 do. But
human fortitude can go no
further. With the next evening
star. off we dash 10 the movies.
the night club or the bridge
game.
Must Have Radios
Even when We race about in
our cars. the horror OF solitude
still grips US. Give US a radio,
or give US death!
Now, I've nothing against
radios Indeed, ! am very much
for them. and have installed
them myself in various parts
OF my home, including my car
Properly used, radio is
probably the most broadening
instrument the machine age has
invented. and there should be
one in every home.
But ! am very much against
our hysterical need of constant
noise and diversion as a means
of escape from solitude.
Not . Blight
Solitude is not a blight nor
nightmare. II is a normal and
necessary part of our human
experience, and no character
can become luSty or posed
without large amounts of il.
We need solitude as much as we
need sleep or food or fresh air.
We need il TO discover and de-
velop the truth about ourselves
to sift out the values OF life
to hear those voices which
can only come to us in the
quiet.
Once solitude was an &C
cepted, an unacceptable part of
all human experience. People
learned to live alone because
they had to.
There were no movies TO flee
to-no telephones or radios-no
swift transportation by auto
mobiles. People learned TO stay
put in both soul and body. and
were the stronger and saner
for il.

NEW YORK designers have

prove a point in unique styling,

Well, Claire McCardell started

It's a short long dress reach

inches from the floor, has

and an interesting twist 10 the

are made OF cottOnS. chambrays
and washable fabrics in smart
