With fluffy hair and bright.
merry eyes. she declares that her
small stature has kept her home
in Canada. instead Of where the
fighting is going on. She wishes
that she were over there with her
brother Pierre. who is corporal in
the Air Branch. Her father is DR..
Leon Archambault. prominent
Montreal dentist.
Recently. she came to New York
City with group of RCAF f1iers
and was entertained royalty at the
officers club. Known as Fluff" by
her patients and the officers in the
hospital where she is stationed, she
got her title from the fact that her
hair peeks out under her nurses
cap. though that's strictly against
regulations.
The whole Archambault family
seems to be in the war. Pierre's

Flight Lieutenant Suzanne Arch
ambault wears an Air Force uni
form of the familiar blue shade and
has the stripes of fight looey on
her sleeve. Speaking of the men
under her care. she said:
mo matter what they've gone
through. they want to be gay and
chivalrous and talk nonsense. I'm
thinking of officers I've danced
with here at club parties and of
certain boys who'ye been patients

of bras and girdles and you can
work until chin and throatline are
flawleSs. All of these measures are
desirable. but nothing less drastic
than expensive and dangerous sur
gerry will reduce that troublesome
bustline.
Your solution lies in camouf1age.
The first rule is to try to balance
the silhouette. Skirts that flare out
from the waistline and are full at
the hem will help gracefully. Wear
rather light hose or leg
makeup and shoes that are inter-
eStingly cut, but sturdy enough to
give you a firm foundation. Avoid
anything that might make the feet
look tiny and pointed. even though
you are proud of small feet and
slim legs!
Get Away From VS.
Avoid anything that is cut close
~ through the bust, as tight fitting
clothes merely call attention to
your size. Have shoulders Of suits
and dresses padded. if necessary, to
give a square look and have full
ness from the shoulder to waistline
to conceal too ample curves. Try to
get away from the deep VS. and
diagonal necklines that so many
older women wear. Instead, try
deep square or rectangular neck
lines that show of pretty neck
and that graceful curve just below
your collar bone.
Take full advantage Of the low
neckline to sweep your hair high.
If your face is full. the hair may
be kept quite fiat at the sides and
swept to interesting height on top
of your head. If the face is thin or
other features are such that you
need fullness behind the ears and
on the neckline in the back. keep
the hair AS simple and neat as pos
sible and see that height is added
in the form of a pompadour or
graceful roll over the forehead.
Wear interesting h ats wit h
swept-up brims. Something me-
dunn in size is best. A tiny hat
would emphasize the bust. huge
one would make the neck seem
thicker and shorter. Avoid neck
laces of any kind. A pretty clip or
pin on your dress or lovely orna-
ment in the hair will add sufficient
glitter.
II the upper arms are fleshy, con-
ceal them with little puff sleeves
for evening. with sleeves that are
full atthe armholes and gracefully
tapered toward the wrist for day
time. Show a lovely back. if you
have one and can find a dinner
dress cut accordingly.
Dark Dresses Best
Dark dresses and suits will be
incest for you. II you wear fur
coats, select one from the light
weight. fiat furs and see that the
coat flares at the hemline. Follow
the same rule in picking out any
coat-no fluffy fur collars or de-
tails Of trimming that would add
bunchiness around the neck or
shoulders. You can carry large bags
and wear looking pieces
of costume jewelry. unless you are
short In stature. Then something
medium would be better.
You must get expertly fitted bras
and girdles. The large bust needs
careful support to prevent undue
strain on delicate muscles and It's
sues. Hips need holding to a
smoother. more flowing line. while
waistlines can sometimes stand
more nipping in.
See that your foundation gets the
very best of care. Girdles haven't
been rationed to the consumer as
yet, but with the scarcity Of rubber,
you should do your best to prolong
the life OF what you have.

MAJOR
EMMETT O'DONNELL. JR.
U. S. Army (Air Corps)

There were fourteen Japs above
Legaspi in the Philippines-until
they met "Rosie" O'Donnell. When
the big Air Corps bomber came out
of the clouds, O'Donnell was at the
controls. Twelve miles ahead, off
shore, lay the target = four Jap
transports. Twelve miles-and fight
ers swarming in, guns blazing.
With pursuit-pilot skill, he banked
the big ship, splitting the nearest
Jap flight. Two of his gunners con-
verged their fire, and fighter spun
down in flames. Five more fighters
cut in, and bullets tore Through
sides of the bomber. Again O'Donnell
reversed his turn, barely avoiding
collision. His wounded gunners
clung to their weapons-and two
more Jap planes went down.
The remaining Japs sheered off.
O'Donnell swung back to his target
through a storm of antiaircraft fire.
The bombs flashed down. Two direct
hits on crowded transports, then
back through another attack. A
fourth fighter fell to pilot-crew
teamwork, before a perilous land
ing on bullet-gashed tires.

SECOND LIEUTENANT
GEORGE S. WEIGH
u. S. Army (Air Corps)

Even before that fateful December
seventh, Lieutenant George Welch
liked guns. He was practising
ground gunnery early that morn
ing. When the first Jap bomb blasted
Wheeler Field. 1t was ten miles to
Haleiwa, where his own squadron
was stationed. With Ken Taylor,
another Army pilot, he drove it in
six minutes, with Jap planes straf-
ing their ear.
At Haleiwa, he took off with
Taylor zooming behind him. Twelve
enemy dive-bombers swept in over
Oahu, thousand feet below Welch
and his comrade. Welch dived, jap
tracers all but boxing him in. His
heavier guns were dead, but he cut
in the 80 calibers, swung onto the
nearest dive bomber. In a single
burst, he killed the gunner, dropped
the plane out of control.
With one gun jammed, he pulled
into the clouds. Reversing his course,
he dived back, shot a fleeing Jap
plane down into the sea. By now his
gun belt was empty and he raced
back to reload at Haleiwa.
AS he took off again, fifteen jap
planes came after them. Seeing
Taylor trapped, Welch charged into
the Jap formation. Taylor's attacker
went down in flames. Another dive
bomber was fleeing seaward when
Welch caught it with the last of his
bullets.

RIGHT FOOD FOR.
GOOD HEALTH.
Your Health and Vitality De-
pends on Proper Food
and Right Amount
BY CHARLOTTE SPENCER

That space of ground devoted to
raising family vegetables and
fruits will have new dignity this
year. Food for Freedom" "Vic-
tory Gardens" and other high
sounding phrases show just how
much Importance is now being at
tached to gardens.
We need more gardens this year.
First, because gardens produce
health. A family with plenty of
home grown vegetables and fruits
is better fed than many other fam
lilies. They can have more veget-
ables summer and winter at a low
er cost. Then, too, garden fresh
vegetables are a richer source of
vitamins than are those which have
been picked several days.
Second, because the country
needs to produce more food. To
feed our allies, our soldiers and
ourselves will take more food than
our civilian population used in
peace times. Some of this extra
food can be produced in well tended
home gardens.
Third, because transportation
will be needed for other things,
home produced food may become
easier to get than food from far off
places.
However, gardening ideas need
good guidance. AS the United
States Department of Agriculture
says 1--WE have no time, or seeds,
or tools to spare for wasteful plant
ing" Unlike Topsy, gardens don't
just grow. The experts warn us
of the necessity for good soil, good
seed and able planting. Given all
that they still warn of a shortage
of tools and swarms of insects.
In peacetime you can grow a gar
den for fun as well as food In
wartime you can't afford to dab
ble."
From the health point of view,
tomatoes and greens should get
first place in small garden. To-
matoes because, fresh or canned,
they are high in vitamin G and so
can replace citrus fruits which
must be shipped to Delaware from
Florida, Texas and California.
Greens get a priority because they
too are especially high in nutritive
value.
The Extension Division of the
University of Delaware has excel
lent gardening instructions. Con-
suit these and other reliable sourc-
es if you are wondering whether or
not it will be patriotic for you to
garden.

RED CLOVER IS
GOOD HAY CROP
Most Important Legume in
Delaware Farmers Plant
ing Program
SHOULD PLANT NOW

Red clover is the most important
legume in the Delaware farmers
program, reports Claude E. Phil
lips, forage crop specialist for the
Delaware Agricultural Extension
Service. He points out that more
than one-half of the total hay acre
age of the State is seeded to red
clover either alone or in combina-
ton with timothy, other grasses or
legumes. The normal red clover
seed requirements for Delaware are
in excess of 100000 pounds. Ac-
cording to the best information
available, there is enough seed to
take care of the 1912 seedlings.
There is, however, none to be vast
ed. Since this is the situation,
more attention must be paid to
seeding practices, Phillips advises.
Wise seeding practices will not only
conserve seed, but will also make
for more successful hay crop lat
er in the year.
Seed Clover Now
The best time to seed red clover
in small grain is late February or
early March. The ground is still
freezing and thawing at this time
and the soil has not been compact
ed by spring rains. This action of
the weather will cover the seed
sufficiently for termination. AS
soon as the soil warns up,the seeds
will germinate and the clover
plants will get an early start and
become firmly established before
there is serious competition from
small grains for light, food and
moisture. For those farmers who
find that they must seed later than
these suggested dates, Phillips rec
ommends that the soil be broken
UP just enough to cover the seed.
One good way to do this is to use
a grain drill with the disks set to
cut about three-quarters of an inch
deep. A rotary hoe set so as to
