things to her, things she had

CHAPTER

IT WAS wax, as Marg had said
II would be. aftr- being the first to
hear the grim Jews of the at
tack on Pearl t!arbor. Her first
thoughts. Of course, had been for
Captain Mercer, although she real
lied it would te weeks probably be-
fore she would know whether or
not he was alive. No news would be
good news.
libby, too, had her oWn personal
reaction, which she realized was d
personal and. therefore, selfish one.
Even in the face of such a big is
sue. such a grave issue as var,
each of us-especially if that per
son is a Woman-faces it from the
personal viewpoint. wondering If
her loved one. son, husband or
sweetheart VIII have to be among
those to make the great sacrifice.
Tibby's reaction was not this.
She was concerned, Of course. for
all those dear to her. Tommy,
Marg's John, Wayne, the boys back
home. But her first thought, as to
how this war would affect her per
sonally was that now Wayne could
not insist upon an immediate mar
riage. She knew that was a selfish
thought, almost a shameful one,
but it was n she could not sup
press or deny. 1t vas one she knew
she ought to examine and analyze,
for that vas not the sort of
thought she should have had.
Most girls would have reacted
exactly the other way. They would
have thought of marriage as soon
as possible, before their sweet
hearts could be sent away, Most
girls would have thought that they
must snatch happiness, brief hap
piness of which Marg had spoken,
eel more quickly than before,
since it might indeed be short

would be a "a Of postponement
of her wedding. 1t must be relief,
she felt. If so, she ought to analyze
her emotions still further. She
thought she loved Wayne enough
to marry him, but if she did not
love him enough to want to marry
him before he might have to 90 to
war, then maybe she did not love
him at all.
There she was. back in the same
old tangle. only knotted in worse
confusion. 1t was a tangle that war
should have unraveled, rather than
tying the threads tighter. 1t should
have clarified her emotions, in
stead Of clouding them into deeper
perpleNities. The irony of it all was
that Wayne took exactly the oppo-
site view, the expected. proper View
that a tiance should take. He

Stops Is Trucks
OF Strawberries

Thirteen trucks loaded with straw
berries are stranded at the Wash
ington Truck Terminal, 1919 New
York avenue NE, for want of gaso-
line.
AS trucks, they're entitled to all
the gas they need, but they can't get
it, according to Morris Fox, owner
OF the terminal. The trucks were
on their way to New York State and
stopped at the terminal for gaso-
line, but Mr.. Fox said he has had to
ration his curtailed supplies and
could promise each of the l3 drivers
only Is gallons.
They could get to Baltimore, but
I've checked with truck terminal
filling stations over there and. they

Meanwhile, the terminal Is sup

cargo was valued at around $50, 900.
