U. 5. Troops Declared
Ready for Invasion al

Men Not Being Trained

b. the Associated Press.
WITH THE U. S. ARMY GROUND
FORCES IN ENGLAND, Aug. TO-
American troops have taken over
some of England's defense areas and
are ready to help the British meet
German invasion, but they are not
being trained ito sit on the defen-
sive."
! Maj, Gen. NJ W. Clark, COM
mander of United States ground
forces in Britain, said in his first
press conference yesterday that
United States troops are coming "by
the thousand upon thousand" and
added that "the sooner second
front could be opened the better"
! The 46-year -old general said
American troops were ready to in
wade the continent at once If neces-
sary, although they could profitably
use six months more training"
Better Trained, He Says.
"In fact" Gen Clark said, "our
men are far better trained than
were American troops which reached
France in the same period during
the last war"
One important problem, he said,
was the need for adapting American
equipment and methods to those of
THE British. so an invading force
scan work as a team.

Shipping Only Bottleneck.
/ There is only one way to get real
experience and that is in battle"
Gen. Clark said. you can do only
so much in training. The picked
divisions being sent to this theater
have been formed at least a year
although this does not mean that
every man in every division has had
a years training.
After all, it is going to take young
men to keep up with the Germans"
Gen. Clark said shipping was the
"only bottleneck" in American plans,
but that great progress had been
made in cutting troop transport
vehicles to a minimum by using
trailers and other devices.
THE shipping problem made us
make closer investigation of the
excessive use of motor transport and
we found we could obtain just as
good results with fewer trucks" he
said.

CHAPTER xvH

He went out into the main cabin,
sat down at the table, and laid out
q hand Of solitaire; but when 1t was
laid out he sat staring vacantly at
the cards. He had reason enough
to be sick of solitaire. Then pres
emily he became aware that he was
infinitely weary, and that he had
as much reason as Karen to be In
need of sleep. He laid his head on
the table, convinced now that there
was no longer on the face OF the
sea any uncertainty worth keeping
a man awake; and was almost inn
mediately asleep.
He must have slept long time,
for when he awoke daylight was
coming in the ports. In front OF
him on the table had been placed a
tray containing wilted sprig OF
celery, and a glass of cold water
that sloshed about with the Holo-
kai's roll; but it didn't seem to him
much of a joke.
Then as he shook the sleep out OF
his eyes he was suddenly aware that
something was wrong. The sun APP
peared to be rising in the west; and
when he had thought about that for
q minute he knew that they should
have been in Honolulu many hours
ago. He could hardly believe that
the Holokai had been into Honolulu
harbor, and set Karen ashore, and
put to sea again, without waking
him up; but that was the only ex-
PLANTATION he could think Of at first.
Certainly the Holokai was tearing
southwark at roaring clip.
He went on deck and found In
yashi at the wheel. whats the idea
of not waking me up in Honolulu"
Honolulu" ~
"Don't stare at me like a block
head!" Dick shouted. what time
did we leave Honolulu"
"We-we haven't been to Homo
lulu, Captain"
"You haven't been-well, where
do you think you're going?"
"Why-Why-Oh, I was afraid of
this" Inyashi moaned.
"Well, speak upl What do you
think you're doing?"
"Miss Waterson--Miss Waterson--
she said you had changed the
course, Captain. She said you want
ed me to bring about and lay for
the Marquesas. She said you had
decided not to 60 to Honolulu. She
said you were asleep, and she said
I was supposed to-"
'Dear heaven" Tonga Dick said.
"You 60 ask her yourself. She's
UP there in the bow. Captain Tom
ga, try to set what course you say.
But I didn't know what to do when
she came and"
The mainsail was partly to blame;
the Holokai's low-swung booms
made part of the deck invisible
from the wheel. But the real rea-
son that Dick had not found Karen
before now was that he had not ex-
pected her to be there. It had been
very definitely fixed in his mind that
she was gone from his ship, gone
altogether out of his life.
He went forward hesitantly, part
ly humble, partly dazed by his luck.
He stood close beside her at the
rail, and drew her against him with
one arm.
"Well, good morning!" Karen
said. do you always sleep in your
clothes? Because I don't think it
does them any good"
Dick said stupidity, We've didn't
20 to Honolulu after all, did WEI"
Certainly not. Silly effort Of
yours-chasing off to Nuku Hiva.
Did you think you'd get away from
me as easily as that?"
A great cloud Of flying fish went
up before the bows of the Holokai,
making a Pickering rainbow ON the
face of the warm sea.

he stepped into James wayne .
office through the window, and de-
manded to know where Lilua was.
81 have no doubt" Dick agreed,
''that I am a, complete fool. Worse
than that-much worse-I am also
unlucky. I simply don't get the
breaks-and I suppose that's the
worst thing you can say about any
man."
"You get as good breaks as any,
one does. The principal trouble with
you is that you don't show any
sense"
81 think it's time for both of rs
to show a little sense. People never
get anywhere trying to dope out who
was to blame for what. II people
like to be together, that should de-
eide what they're going to do"
"Such as-?"
'What's the sense in going to Hon
olulu? / don't have to go to Homo
lulu, and neither do you. The Holo-
kai can just as well put about and
lay a course for Nuku Hiva. How
do you know you wouldn't like Nuku
Hiva? I'll bet any amount you'll
think it's a whole lot prettier than
San Francisco"
''My word" Karen smiled family.
81 believe it's meant to be pro
posal!"
"Can it what you want to-" Dick
said. Don't you think-don't you
think"
''Would you like to know what I
think? I think you're tiresome. You
sit there talking on and on, when all
a person wants is to 60 to sleep.
Now, you can sit there talking to
yourself as long as you want to,
but I'm going to sleep, anyway"
said Karen.
Dick stood up. 'I've got a great
mind to set a course for Nuku Hiva
anyway, and make you like It'll"
Karen laid her head on her arms
and closed her eyes. "You're al
ways shanghaiing somebody" she
said. "But ask yourself-what does
it ever get YOUR
Dick stood looking down at her
quiet face, and wondering why he
had ever hoped to understand this
girl. Nothing, I guess" he adj
mitted at last.

wrungout rag when they leave. They
do nothing for party but wreck it.
Muriel always is the best-dressed
woman present; she somehow
makes the other women feel con-
scious Of old clothes. She is nerv-
Gus, critical, proud woman who keeps
everyone else in a constant state of
fear that Muriel isn't having a good
time. Any interruption of a story
that Muriel is telling fills her with
sense Of deep pity for poor Jean.
jeans dreadful servant, jeans trou-
blesome baby, jeans responsibility
for the salad dressing, the door bell
and the telephone cause Muriel to
say admiringly, 'My dear, I don't
see how you put up with all this. It's
simply dreadful"
Annoys Her Hearers.
If any man or woman she doesn't
happen to know well, and approve,
is sitting neglected for moment in
Jeans parlor, Muriel never makes
the slightest effort at entertainment.
She lowers her long eyelashes and
looks at the floor. At the table she
contributes nothing to the CONVERSE
ton, and when small mishaps occur
she looks deeply pained-sorry
again for poor Jean! When anyone
mentions play or a book Muriel
brushes it at once; she says it is
rather like a much better play or
book that only she has seen. If she
can possibly correct anyone's pro-
nunciation she does it by immedi-
ately using the mispronounced
word; If she can annoy her hearers
by employing French or Italian
phrases she never spares them.
Her husband has one topic, sport.
The shooting Of deer, doves, rabbits,
the catching of trout and steelhead
and marlin are Guys sole interest;
it never occurs to him that other
men have better things to do. After
several cocktails Guy becomes noisy
and tactless and he and Muriel quar-
rel. This is the simple truth of it,
though it sometimes takes their
friends months or even years to dis
cover that neither Guy nor Muriel
really adds anything to the general
pleasure of any group.
If young couples just starting out
in life could study their list Of
friends carefully, and weed out those
who are only trouble-makers, only
destined to become more and more
of burden, much later discomfort
would be spared all round.
Unfortunately, when a man and
woman first are married, each one
brings to the partnership a legacy
of dear old friends. No one ele-
ment in marriage is more danger
GUS than these same jolly persons,
who refuse to recognize the fact that
anything is changed, and want to
60 right on with the irresponsible
old round of restaurants, night
clubs, dances, ball games and col
lege gossip. One of the newlyweds
likes this sort of thing, but to the
other it is apt to be gall and worm-i
wood.
