In the big barracks early supper had long
ago been eaten. Dusk was here Measles held
them prisoner. The vast main room contained
hundreds of cots, yet it seemed empty, per-
haps because it was so stupendous, perhaps
because the boys were so quiet. The old sta
ton wagon chugged its way through the open
door and waddled into position before the
tiers of seats that extended up in the form of
an amphitheater
Like bits of steel attracted by magnet
the boys who had been listlessly lolling on
their cots or playing desultory games now
leaped into the seats as the old station wagon
was magically transformed into a motion
picture machine. Over the broad side of it
the screen was unrolled. The darkness was
dotted now by the red eyes here, there, every
where of sociable cigarettes, and the quiet
was broken by the healthy normal sound of
boys laughter. The picture was comedy
and they loved it.
When the film was finished the ancient
vehicle did a protean act again and was trans
formed this time into a lunch wagon with
coffee and cookies and cigarettes for the TAX
ing. The rather dour lad from Texas who had
been sitting on the steps munching choco-

because of this hour of entertainment and

Not too many miles away shabby factory
had been converted into barracks and there
was dance going on. The local organizations
of the USO had gathered together the young
girls from the nearby towns and had brought
them out in buses and cars or whatever could
be assembled, and now. in their trim little
suits or their print dresses, they were prancing
through the figures of an old-fashioned square
dance with the uniformed boys. The music
was phonograph hitched to loudspeaker;
the floor was splintery and rough; the room
was close. Ladies round the gents and gents
around the ladies! Ladies round the ladies
and gents round the gents Ali join hands!

NO NEED of movie here. They were having

Somehow the last, though, was the best.
We bumped our way, still rafting and creak-
ing, across bridge on our way back to New
York. Hallway across We stopped. There
seemed to be no reason for stopping here in
the middle of the bridge with the water
rushing below and darkness all around and
midnight almost two hours behind us. But
the leader of our unit disappeared for a
moment and there came the sound of voices
and hallooing. Then, like something out of a
Barrie play. there appeared a very small SOL
der with very big gun. He seemed to have
come from the depths of the river. He had
really been stationed by one of the bridges
piers. He was wet. cold, friendly. engaging.
A pint-size man of war. As his teeth closed,
chattering, over the rim of the hot coffee
cup knew, finally, why it was good to send
laden station wagon off into the night just
short distance into that hinterland beyond
New York which is so near and 50 terribly far.
It's lonely war. And the young aren't

Fannie Brice's deathless line, the USO may
not be as pretty as the girl they left behind
them - but it's awful good company.

"HEY called it Mobile Unit This proved
to be masterpi.ce of understatement
That vintage station wagon of the
United Service Organizations (USO to you)
proved to be not only mobile - it was elastic.
1t had more vertebrae than dinosaur. In it
we Travelled from Times Square to New Jer-
sey's Orange Mountains and returned in one
piece. A triumph of spirit over matter if ever
there was one.
This is lonely war. Perhaps lonely isn't
exactly the word. 1t is kind of guerrilla war
fare on a stupendous scale. Little groups of
men up in vast bombers. Little groups of men
on oil tankers. A handful of Commands
panicking port. Two or three lads trained to
scan the heavens from solitary mountain
peak. That's one reason why the United
States and its Allies will win the war. A people
accustomed to democratic form of govern
ment will prove people accustomed to think
ing for itself and acting with initiative Still.
it's often lonely chore, this war, and that's
where the USO comes in. Since that little trip
in the rattle-trap station wagon starting at
PM from the corner of Broadway and
Forty-fifth Street and ending at AM back
IN New York I'll probably never gulp hot
cup of coffee on cold night - see group
of boys and girls dancing - watch a motion
picture thrown on rigged-up screen by an
unprofessional operator see a searching
beam thrown across the night sky like the
finger of God - that won't recall that little
jaunt.
Noisy But Cheerful
WE WERE surrounded by notsam and jetsam
There were l,5O0 gay pasteboard boxes con-
tanning games that had just been contributed.
There were cartons of cookies, cans of coffee,
cooking apparatus, pots and pans, motion
picture outfit. Rafting, banging, creaking
and jouncing. off we went in the general direc-
ton of lot of lonely boys up there in the
Jersey hills. Heaven knows they could hear
us coming We sounded like whole tank
corps bouncing along the road. There was
something sort of cheerful about it, though,
OF course when you're in the Army you don't
say you're sometimes lonely and you don't
look it, but you may be, just the same You
may be sitting up there on high hilltop from
which, at night, you can see the dimn1ed-out
glow of New York, but you might as well be
up in the Rockies, it is so remote from your
actual contact. And this is where the Mobile
Unit of the USO comes in.
Our first stop on this Santa Claus trip was
at a big building on the outskirts of town.
It originally had been an armory and it now
was barracks. Everyone in it was quaran-
tined with measles they're awfully young
these soldiers of ours. and if you think
measles aren't lonely try them sometime.
A large brick-colored soldier from Texas was
seated on the steps eating frozen chocolate
oonfection but it didn't seem to be lifting his
spirits. It's funny thing about Texas.
Though it's big state it is sparsely settled;
yet it seems that every third soldier you meet

Nine Days Left to Com. plete Preparations to
 Comply With New Rules

With only nine days to complete preparations, Waterbury today was stepping up its plans to comply with the dim-out regulations ordered by the Army. The dim-out was dis cussed at length yesterday at e meeting of the planning board of the Waterbury Defense Council.
 Mayor Vincent A. scully and William T. Jebh, manager of the Connecticut Light & Power Co.,, plan c conference on street lights, all of which can operate after Nov. 90 with only reduced wattage and with shades obscuring the upper portion.
 Motorists must have the upper half of their car headlights ob- scured. Housholders can allow no light above the horizontal to be seen, shades must be drawn three quarters down, and windows fac- ing south must be shaded com pletely.
 Display and advertising signs outdoors are "out' for the dura- ton. Gas stations and parking lots may use only 6 few small bulbs, Restaurants and tavernS must shade all their window, allowing only foot-wide strip from four to six feet above the sidewalk, In- terior lights must be shaded.
