bitterly. They won't let other people live
in peace. We must beat them so bad that
they can never start another war"
i That, assuredly, is another incontro-
vertible war aim. Those who would live
by the sword must perish by it. We are
fighting for the right to sit on our porches
in security and peace.
Near the end of my beat is the roadside
tavern, run by Joe Meggs. Before rubber
and gasoline shortages, Joe used to do
quite business with motorists. Now he
has to depend mostly on local trade and
his temper is none too good. When
told him he would have to dim out his
entrance lights he grumbled a bit. That
set him off on the rubber situation.
There are some people in Washing
ton," he said, who ought to have their
heads examined"
ONE of the men at the bar took him up
on that. He told Joe he ought to be re-
ported to the FBI for making such an un-
patriotic remark The argument was get
ting hot when Ed Burns, who also lives
on the neck, came to Joe's defense.
Lets leave ewitch-hunting to the Nazls,
Ed said. We've all got right to cuss out
the government, thank God, as long as
we are loyal to it"
And there, l am sure, is yet another
thing we are fighting for - perhaps the
most important of all. We are fighting for
the preservation of government which
we can discuss and criticize and change,
if we wish to, at the same time that we
love and serve it - government which IS
of the people and not over them.
My beat is very small one. The finger
of land which it covers is not even speck
on a map of the United States, but the
people who live there are typical OF
100000 other Americans. Back of
darkened windows freedom burns brightly.
The common people, everywhere, can tell
you what we are fighting for.

ro0TER. Chief regulator of Army life
is the camp trumpeter. 'Bugler" is not his
official calling - and he blows trumpet,
not a bugle. The trumpeter is the gent
whose music sets the routine OF every SOL
diers day. He tells the boys when to get
up, when to eat, when church services are
being held, when to get their mail.
A trumpeter has Al calls to fit almost
any situation. They're divided into four
groups. WARNING CALLS includes First Call
which is the get-ready signal for revelle,
retreat, parade, mess, etc. FORMATION
CALLS includes the signal to assemble at a
DESIGNATED place. ALARM CALLS has one OF
the most exciting: To Horse - mounted
men grab their horses and arms and get
ready for action.
SERVICE CALLS is the largest classlflca-
ton 26 of them, including Sick Call,
ordering all sick to report to the surgeon;
Water Call, signal for all mounted men to
water their horses. Most popular Service
Call: Payday March, signifying that troops
will be paid.
SPOTTER. One of the most competent
veterans in the Armys Aircraft Warning
Service is June Moeller. Miss Moeller is
plane spotter at the observation post in
Southbury, Conn. She goes on duty more
often than any other of the posts observ-
ers. She also is credited with being able
to hear planes seconds before her COL
leagues do and she can identify every one
that comes over.
Miss Moeller will be eight her next
birthday.

neck. While was making the rounds of
his property recently, to see if any lights
were visible from the sea, he told me about
a little trouble he'd had with picnickers.
An automobile load of strangers had
parked beside his cottage, tramped across
his newly seeded lawn and had built fire
on the little private beach in front of his
house When Bradley politely informed
them they were on private property, they
gave him an argument. This is free

shades, Old Charlie invited me to SIT down
and rest myself Then he told me about an
argument he had had with the man he
was working for. The boss had called him
a doddering old jackass, it seems, and
made other unpleasant remarks.
And what did you say?" asked him.
Old Charlie took his pipe from his
mouth and gave me a straight look,
why. naturally" he said, Il amt never
let anybody bulldoze me. l can always get
another job. If can't, reckon can dig
clans for living. l told him to go to hell. :"
HIcHr there, l believe, Old Charlie
illustrated one of the most important
things we are fighting for - the dignity
of the individual. If there is any one thing
for which we are rislking everything in this
war it is individual freedom - the pre-
cious privilege of being able to tell any
one, including the boss. to 60 to hell.

That may have made the pic
nickers pretty mad, but, like Old
Charlie, George Bradley voiced one
of the principles for which we are at
war to the death. We are fighting,
certainly. to preserve the inviolable
security of every mans home.

TICKS ARE BACK
BE CAREFUL

Ticks are back again in thu
Maryland woods. The possibility
of contracting spotted fever
popularity known as tick bite fever
from infected insects brings this
warning from DR.. R. H. Riley,
Director of the State Health De-
partment to all whose work or rec
reation takes them into thick-in-
Tested areas.
"Spotted fever-c- tick bite
fever-is contracted" DIR. Riley
said, "from the bite of infected in
sects or from absorbing the infec-
tious material into the system,
through a scratch, an open sore, or
break in the skin. The disease
does not spread from person to
person.
"While not all ticks are carriers
of the infectious material, it isn't
safe to take any chances with any
of them. They are all possible
sources Of danger, and you must
act accordingly.
"Remove any ticks found on the
body without delay, but very care
fully, so as not to absorb any of
the infectious material through a
possible scratch or break in the
skin.
"Protect the fingers with bit of
soft cloth or paper. If the insect
is deeply embedded in the skin use
small forceps if possible, to with
draw it.
"Swab the place with iodine; dip
your fingers and the forceps in al
cohol and wash your hands with
soap and water, thoroughly, after
wards.
eff you are camping or working
in a tick-infested area protect
yourself with suitable clothing.
Search your clothing and any poss-
ible hiding places on your body for
the insects, twice a day-oftener,
if necessary.
"Children playing in uncleared
places. or in woods along shores
should be looked over very care
fully. Don't forget to search be-
hind the ears, on the head and in
the hair.
ga vaccine that has been found
to be of help in preventing the
disease, if given early in the sea-
son, can be obtained without
charge through your County
Health Officer"
In its early stages tick bite
fever may resemble measles, in
fiuenza, typhoid fever, meningitis
or typhus. DIR. Riley said. On that
account it is very important that q
doctor be called whenever suspic-
ious symptoms develop after per
son has been exposed to ticks. The
presence of the disease can be con-
firmed by laboratory tests.
! A leafet on Spotted Fever, which
answers many of the questions
that people ask about the disease
has been published by the U. S
Public Health Service. Copies of il
can be obtained by writing to the
