ABOARD UNITED STATES
WARSHIP WITH THE ALLIED
FORCES Delayed Probably the
happiest-and most relieved-man
aboard this warship as it steamed
away following an attack on Jap
anese positions in New Guinea was
certain, red-haired young aviator.
Red" celebrated his 28th birthday
in his single seated fighter, charging
at a terrific speed on enemy ships
in Salamaua.
After straflng a tender and a
transport, blowing up two motor
launches and raking enemy barges,
the flyer returned to the ship with
out scratch and grinning broadly.
He had beaten the jinx which had
threatened to cut short his life-a
HEX" he said was put on him by a
fortune teller years ago.
At that time, the fortune teller
forecast a number of events to take
place in Reds life. He laughed at
the idea, but one by one the events
came true.
All Came True But One.
He began to worry. Finally, all
the forecasts had come true but
one-that he would not pass his
28th birthday.
The flyer became obseSsed with
this thought. AS a result, he took
every precaution in his flying trips.
Feeling that the chief danger was
to be lost at sea and then drift in
his rubber boat. perhaps to wild
island, the ensign collected equip
ment to take along on every flight.
The equipment included fishhooks
and fish line, hunting knife, an
extra f1ashlight, extra ammunition,
revolver, a small can of oil to keep
his revolver in condition, extra
patching equipment for the rubber
boat, quinine, extra food rations,
spare compressed air tubes for bis
life jacket, waterproof cigar
lighter.
He always carried a $40 bill under
his Identification tag and a picture
of his girl friend, for good luck. He
recently took out additional life in
surance and left money for the pre-
MUM with a shipmate He studied
up on the best method to battle a
shark.
Added New Items.
Just before the New Guinea at
tack he added several new items to
his collection, including cuff links,

shiny uniform buttons and various
trinkets to trade to the natives on
the island should he be forced down.
From the galley he obtained a meat
cleaver to hack his way through the
jungles.
Much of this equipment he car
ried continually, because he never
knew which plane he would fly. For
that reason he was nicknamed
"Pauncho" by his fellow aviators
because he bulged in places"
BY peculiar circumstance an at
tack against Jap positions in New
Guinea fell on his 28th birthday an
niversary-the supposed deadline of
his life.
II thought I'd make it," he said
as he climbed out Of his plane, but
I'm sure glad it's over Now I've
got nothing to worry about"

WhyDoWomen

Medical science says women blood generally has
. slight deficiency in red blood cells :. the
CELLS which transport life-giving oxygen from the
lungs to all body tissues. Together with the usual
periodic blood loss each month. red blood cells
become scant, with the result that women body
tissues are not fed the life-giving oxygen as
fast as mems. Consequently they tire more easily.
Women who are constantly tired. always
complaining never really feel 1907 perfect.

bly, do is to present the principal
angles of the situation as see them.
First of all. l do agree that
against the background of the
war the superficial conventions Of
propriety seem very unimportant.
In her own home town, the gossip
that might start. about any Joan's
hurrying off to say goodbye to
jim. will be measured by the repu-
tation that she has all her life
built up - or let down. A girl
who is much liked, and whose
character is known to be fine, can
do without criticism what a girl
less popular, less trustable, could
not possibly do.
Another point in the favor of
every Joan and Jim who are
known to have been long and
seriously intending to marry
is that their romance is not merely
the result of an emotional impulse
brought about because of the sud-
den realization of the danger into
which he is going. She. therefore,
should be able to count quite
surely upon the tolerant kindness
of the neighbors. Even the nor
mally censorious will have i'm
pulses of sympathy rather than
censure, should Joan have no other
way of saying goodbye except by
going within reachable distance of
his camp.
But il is Obvious that her
Uisit should be very brief. The
longer she stays, the greater
the danger not only Of gossip
but of cause for gossip. Long
hours spent alone together, at
q time 1hich seems to hare no
ton,Ovro,p, build up emotions
of incuicuiabie intensity for
,chich neither is prepared -
and ,pith ,ctich they may be
unable to cope.
On the other hand, the stand
ards of honor and integrity are
exalted, rather than lowered. by
the realities which every man en-
barking, and the beloved of every
man left behind, must face. l
doubt, therefore, very much wheth-
er Joan and jim will inspire feel
ings other than sympathy - If
they keep theiy standards up.
And yet in the last analysis.
cannot take the responsibility
of saying to Joan's mother: Yes
let her CO." Nor have | the heart
to say: mo. not without a chap
eronr'
Only Joan's mother - perhaps,
still more, her father - knows her
and Jim and their characters and
tenperaments, we'll enough to say
definitely yes" or no" In other
words, l must put the responsible
ity where it belongs - on them.

May she go to camp,
unchaperoned, TO see
him before he sails?
% &''t% %a<

MONG the many not easily
- solved problems of my
Z = younger readers. the one
which troubles me most is this:
Throughout the whole country, in
every Army camp and every Naval
station, there is a young soldier
named Jim who has in mind the
question of how he is going to see
a girl named Joan before he sails or
entrains. "Jim" is multiplied. of
course, a score or a hundred or a
thousand times, according to the
size of the camp or the station.
And in every city and village
in the United States, the young girl
Joan" is worrying just as much
if not more - about how she is
going to see jim before he goes.
And the words of the song 1T
may be for years and it may be
forever" are too nearly true to be
sung without break in the throat.
DilesnznA
"A TYPICAL letter from one Joan
tells me: Jim had expected to
come here, but now he may leave
at any moment and the first thing
we know he'll be gone, and it will
be too late. He telephoned. beg
ging me to come to the town near
the camp. But the trouble is. it is
very far from here. Even if Mother
could just drop everything at
home now to 60 with me. the
double fare and the hotel bill
would be more than we could
afford. If only some of my friends
who are married to men at Jims
camp were going, then could go
with one of these and everything
would be all right. But none of the
married men have been in train
ing as long as jim.
IL think should tell you that
we aren't exactly engaged, but as
all of our friends here know. we
have had an understanding for a
long time, and Mother says that
may go if you say so. She says
to tell you it is almost certain that
people will gossip if l 60, but
think I'll just die if l can't say
goodbye to him."
To Joan's mother and to all the
others who are putting this same
question up to me, 1 must answer
that I cannot take the response

Constable Ray Atwell, who ar
rested Mclaughlin Saturday, said
that, when he entered the store,
he found eight of the salesgirls
crying, and that they told him
they were crying because Nc
Laughlin had abused and cursed
them.
This morning Constable Atwell
said, THE things that Mclaughlin
called the girls, according to them,
of course are not printable. They
were things that no girls, or men
either, would stand for, and I feel
sure got in the store just in time
to stop Mclaughlin from getting
a good beating, because fathers
and brothers of some of the girls
had been told about the alleged
cursing and were on the way to
the store:
ut should be explained" Con-
stable Atwell added, that Nc
Laughlin, at the time l arrested
him, and also since he has been
released from Jail, assured me
that he had not cursed the girls.
He said that he might have spoken
abruptly, in directing them to per-
form their duties, but that he most
surely did not use the words they
said he had used"

FLEEING FORCES
OF ROMMEL ARMY
BEING OVERTAKEN
BELIEVED THAT FORCES OF
GEN. MONTGOMERY WILL
REACH TRIPOLI BEFORE
U.S.-BRITAIN UNITS
tBy Associated PressD

CAIRO, Dec. 21.-Fleeing rem
nants of Marshal Rommel Afri-
can corps are being overtaken in
various parts of the western
desert by contingents from Gen
eral Montgomery's Eighth Army,
some of whom are now more
than 100 miles beyond Ell Aghei-
la.
1t is believed here that Cen
eral Montgomery will reach
Tripoli before the American and
British forces that are passing
to the eastward through Tunisia
toward Tripoli.
Fighting in Tunisia today was
confined chiefly to artillery duels
and airplane bombings. The AL
lies continued their raids on
Bizerte and Tunis, and squad
rons of Allied planes have at
tackled Axis planes in the Medi-
terranean and over Tunisia and
Algeria. Results of the dogfights
were not made public by the Al
lied headquarters.
