BOYS HAVE TO TAKE TT

Their living conditions probably aren't any better than those i1 crowded Washington. And when it comes to finding girls to date, they would feel lucky If there were one girl to every eight men around an army camp.
 And their work Is really work =. not anything as physically easy as typIng or carrying messages.
 So, the girls look pretty silly de- ciding not to work for the goyern- ment--when they know how badly the government needs them-Just because living in Washington isn't quite as exciting as they thought It was going to be.
 If women are going to be that frivolous and unpatriotic in their attitude toward war work, probably conscription of women would be Q good thing.
