Honored with fitting
ceremony at GAINESVILLE last

eran Newark insurance ex-
ecutive, on the occasion of
his 10th anniversary in the
insurance business.
The Newark Leader takes
pleasure in extending it's
congratulations to Mr.. Ran
kin, who has also been an
active participant in the ci-
vic and social life of this
community.
. The insurance business is
not the drab occupation
that many would expect.
Insurance performs a vi
tai stabilizing influence in
the lives of everyone of us.
There can be no doubt but
what Mr.. Rankin gets much
satisfaction out of handing
over a check for a fire loss,
an accident claim, and what
is more important the well
come life insurance check
which will take care of the
wives and children of a de-
ceased policy holder. The
insurance agency is a tre-
mendous agency for social
security, and we again con-
graduate Mr.. Rankin for
having such a vital part in
the business for so many
years.

Girl Refugee Is Now Talented Bass Violinist

After two years Of teaching herself.
Paula began to take~music lessons. She
could manage to pay for them herself
if she brought her lunch with her, saved
on carfare by walking the two miles
to the high school and made excuses
when other girls went out for a soda.
Her teacher finally decided that his
young pupil should have the best in
struction available in Chicago. There
was only one man to teach her, v.
Jiskra, the string bass virtuoso. Jiskra
had never bothered to teach girls He
was busy man. You had to have a
powerful right hand to play the string
bass and no girl, he said, had that
strength.
But Jiskra accepted Paula as a pupil,
She paid him what she could, when she
could, rarely the full fee. He even
loaned her string bass to take home
with her.

started teaching on her own. She had

the store, she ducked under the counter.
BY this time, all her ambition was
concentrated on one thing-owning her
own string bass. She played whenever
and wherever she could, in dance bands
and string ensembles. She taught and
she worked. She went on the road for
nine weeks with quintet. She didn't
eat, lost Is pounds, but when she re-
turned, she walked into music store
and handed the proprietor her savings.
She owned q string bass.

home seemed to be good omen. Things

scholarship to music school, was recon-
mended to the Woman's Symphony and
the Chicago Civic Orchestra and played
in both. She had all the pupils she could
teach. She was helping at home and was
even able to afford some clothes as pretty
as those she had had as child in
Munich.
At 81, Paula was playing first bass in
the Chicago Civic Orchestra. A girl OF
Paula's size who could play the bass viol
was an oddity but musicians listened and
were convinced.

I got a customer today who was
sailor who said he had been in the
battle of Midway Island. So I asked
him to tell me about the battle, and all
he had to tell was that it was hot as
the dickens down in the boiler room.
Now, judging by that, I think when
this war is over there are lot of peo-
pile who are going to want to know what
really happened.
First, there are all the sailors and
soldiers and marines who never know
what is going on because they are inside
of tanks or down in submarines or up
in the airplanes, where they never get
to see anything.
And then there are all the big shots

First, he had to fnd out how much
drinking water man needs working in
that heat. He forced himself to walk
four miles in an hour fiat every morning.
The first two days his temperature went
up two degrees and he lost 800 cubic
centimeters of water (sweating).
The third morning his temperature
stayed normal and he lost $500 cubic
centimeters of water. That increased
sweating is good. It's the body's way OF
cooling itself. It's also a scientists
guide to how much drinking water q
man needs
Machle decided that men fighting in
the desert must have three gallons of
water daily. (Were supposed to get eight
glasses day. Machle tried cutting the
water ration. But 1t didn't work.
Getting Into Action.
And here's the way those laboratory
ideas are translated into action. The
Quartermaster Corps has been notified.
1t means they must get three gallons of
water a man up to the fighting line
daily. Suppose there's 1000 tankmen
out in an attack. They would be fol-
lowed by one of our 6.000-gallon water
trucks. Just for drinking. More water
has to be sent along for washing and
laundry. Machle found that washing
water is just as important. Dirty men
develop infections. And infections cut
fighting trim.
There's much more that this labor
atory must explore.
They've already forced changes in
