Any Date Dress Goes,

Dates are no small portion OF
ones college career that she
knows, but she's also informed
that collegians have no truck
with fancy silks and satins. Any
thing goes for date dresses, as

The other choice was a nat

smart scholars. It's in the same

Fsmly Needs

During THIS growing season
we've had a chance TO practice,
Next year the beginners Will be
old-timers, able 10 teach other
beginners from their experience
and ready 10 care for more gar

1t is estimated that the aver
age family OF there IS such a

What 10 Do

What can we do right noY,
FIRST of all we can plant as
many late crops as possible so
thar Our gardens will supply US
with just as much food as TREY
can for as long as the weather
allows.
Next we can take steps TO
lengthen the season by planting
at least the smaller crops in spots
that can easily be protected,
maybe even construct a cold
frame to house late lettuce and
such and to give an early start
10 plants next spring. We can
also condition our soil for bet
ter crops next year.
Save Surplus
Then we can figure out Just
how TO can. dry. brine or store
all OF our garden surplus and as
much more in the fruit and
vegetable line as we can obtain
at reasonable prices.
A storage pat for vegetables
is not hard TO make and allows
many kinds to be stored for use
during the cold months.
We can also do a good part Of
our next springs gardening this
fall. including planting fruit
trees and the small fruits,
perennial garden plants such as
rhubarb and asparagus, and a
supply of perennial herbs TO
keep us in seasonings.
Some of these points will be
discussed in detail tomorrow
and during the coming week.
Evening star., 1942-08-27

a colonel, was one of the few mill
tary observers in the world who was
right about the fighting qualities
and efficiency of the Soviet Army.
After the United States recognized
the Soviet Union, Gen. Faymonville
became military attache to Moscow
serving from 1884 to 1899. He be-
came convinced that the Red Army
was lots better than practically
everybody was saying it was and
wrote his reports accordingly. There
were probably quite number of
persons in Washington who belit-
tied his reports and maybe some
who scoffed, that chap must have
gone Red" but since June, 194l,
Faymonville's critics have had
plenty of time in which to turn
red themselves. They were all
wrong about the Russian army and
he was utterly right.
This was not an accident for there
are certainly not half a dozen
American or British officers today
who know the Soviet Union from the
Far East to the Ukraine as thorouh-
ly As Gen. Faymonville does.
Throughout the 1918-1920 sojourn
OF Gen. Graves American Expedi-
tionary Force in Siberia, he served
as its chief ordnance officer.
Speaks Russian Fluently.
But before that while still in the
Philippines, Gen. Faymonville began
studying Russian. He now speaks it
with such f1uency that during the
recent Kremlin dinner in honor of
Prime Minister Winston Churchill
Gen. Faymonville was the only Al
hed officer who gave a toast in
perfect RusSian-and he, together
with Capt. Jack Duncan, United
States Naval Attache, was the re-
cipient of special recognition from
Premier Josef Stain.
(Gen. Faymonville is former
student of Georgetown Univers-
ity and Is member of Delta Phi
Epsilon, national foreign service
fraternity which had its incep-
ton at Georgetown. He studied
Russian there under Vladimir
Grovsh before going to Russia.)
Gen. Faymonville returned to
Eastern Siberia for 18 months dur
ing 1922-1923 on a special mission and
travelled widely in Far Eastern and
Central Siberia. He understands,
likes and Is very much at home with
the Russian people and to an excep-
tional degree he enjoys the con-
fidence of Russia's military leaders.
You cannot talk 10 minutes with
Gen. Faymonville without being i'm
pressed by the remarkable care with
which he chooses his words, by the
scrupulous exactness of his mind
1t would be impossible for a man OF
his makeup to make q snap judg-
ment about anything. In regard to
the qualities of the Russian Army
he has been vindicated a thousand
times over-because his mind pene-
trated much further than those oi
most OF his contemporaries and be-
cause ne never lowered himself to
writing what some people back home
at that time would have liked to be-
lieve.
