URGE PLANNING
NOW FOR JUNEAU
VICTORY PLOTS
Orders for Garden Seed
Should Be Placed
Immediately

With victory gardens taking an
even more important place both as
an increased necessity and as
patriotic effort, Gastineau Channel
residents should begin to plan now
for paintings in the spring" Mrs.
Wellman Holbrook, President of the
Juneau Garden Club, announced
today.
Pointing out that seeds are scarcer
than in former years, Mrs. Holbrook
said that orders should be placed at
once in order to receive desired
kinds and varieties. =
Had a survey been made of the
successfully grown garden produce
raised on the Gastineau Channel
last year, it would represent, know,
an astonishing sum in cash value
she continued.
When one considers further that
this locally-g grown garden stuff saw
ed untold amounts of shipping
space, the Importance of even more
extensive local gardening is appar-
ent," she went on.
Warning against planting Of
one kind of quick maturing veget-
able, the Garden Club president
recommended instead successive
paintings of favorite kinds, SO they
would mature over a period OF time.
Radishes, green onions, chives and
peas would fall in this class, she
said
Flower raising will have to give
place even further to the raising of
utility green stuffs, both for patriotic
reasons and because the shipping of
bulbs to Alaska has been banned
by newly passed Federal regulations,
she said.
First Garden Club meeting of the
year will be held the second Wednes-
day of this month, Mrs. Holbrook
said, the time and place to be
announced later.

Cold Waffle Fan
Offers Advice.

To the Editor OF The Star:
IAN Idea Maybe Not Worth
Thought" in yesterdays Star, by Sen
timental," indicates a lack Of economy
in housekeeping. Has the writer never
heard of refrigerator? If she has,
why not put the leftover batters and
other foods into the refrigerator until
an opportunity comes to use them. Ever
eat cold pancakes? If the batter Is good,
they are all right Being on a limited
starch diet, my doctor approved the idea
OF using pancakes and wafdes in place
OF bread. as the ingredients are more
varied. I make up my wafles for lunch
once a week, using the batter which is
good to the last drop" and put the
pile of waffles in the refrigerator with
damp cloth over it and draw the
waffles daily until used. Friends laugh
at my eating cold waf11es and drinking
cold coffee but wouldn't trade for bread
sandwiches and hot coffee, even il they
were not taboo in my diet. Some scien-
tist said that coffee was just smell and
hot water, but braved the test and find
more pleasure in cold coffee with milk
and pill, than formerly with cream
and sugar. We make a lot of fuss about
not being able to eat this and that but

surprised that we did not try before

inhibitions to adult age, resulting in

Another Problem Entirely

According to news story in Mon
days Star there is sufficient war
housing" built or building In this
area and 1T Is improbable that any
more will be authorized. The diff
ference between this war housing
and the low-cost housing planned in
connection with slum elimination
should be kept clearly in mind.
One reason that the war housing
In this area has failed to relieve the
local congestion which makes for
slum conditions is that only the war
workers are eligible for war housing.
Many Washington Negroes, not war
workers, have been evicted from
homes razed to make way for Gov
ernment structures. With no other
housing available, they have been
crowded into areas already too
densely populated. The new pro-
gram contemplated by the Commits

own favorites can almost talk, in very
real sense.
1t is seen that among themselves they
have highly developed cat language.
sufhcient for all the purposes of life.
In regarding the lower animals, So
called. human being has difhculty at
times in keeping his own kind and theirs
from being mixed up.
1t is very easy to attribute to them
human thoughts and emotions. This
leads to sentimentality and loss Of per-
spective.
The real friend Of the cats will know
his own worth, as human, and neither
| drag himself down to the animal plane
nor try to draw them up to him.
AA
The cat tones, we believe, are suscep-
tible OF far greater reach than many
persons believe.
This is true Of many living things.
Even the inflexible language OF the
dog can upon occasion manifest itself
as plainly as if words were used.
The cat far excels the dog in its
cries. The chatter Of female cat
upon seeing a bird through a pane Of
glass is utterly unlike any other sound
made by the members of this tribe.
1t is to be supposed that heightened
affection at the time Of death lends a
super quality, at least in the ears Of
friends.
These sound waves, it is not difficult
to believe, tend to make a sound picture
in the hearing organs, which are all
ready to spring into life, at least for a
few seconds, every time certain sort Of
sound wave impinges on the air.
We believe that the sounds our cor
respondent heard were not from the
| great beyond, but rather were the direct
result Of a somewhat similar sound
coming out of the air from some place
and causing the sound wave patterns
held in the hearing to become almost
alive If not fully so.
1t is not always realized that great
many children have voices which star
| tlingly resemble the cries of cats.
Only the person who has had many
cat friendships will realize this, perhaps,
but 1t Is true. Often it is impossible for
the person well acquainted with both
voices to tell one from the other.
1t is quite possible that there tend to
| remain behind certain sound vibration
| patterns, which are quite invisible, but
are easily stirred into activity, causing
the hearing apparatus to hear" what
no one else can hear.
In this way the last sad cries of a
beloved pet linger in the ears, as well
as In mind and hearts, and become
at times OF heightened emotion heard
again, until at last they are gone, and
are never heard any more.

nevertheless and was extremely Thoughts
ful and courteous to me over at the
House as we'll as in his Office. When he
learned my soldier son was to be in the
Capitol the next day, he invited us to
lunch with him and his secretary in the
House dining room. There he intro
duced us to number of his colleagues,
including New Yorks lady Representa-
tive. I was pleased to meet her. She
appeared able, efficient and unspoiled.
Our Representative was especially Rra-
cious to my soldier son. I'm sure his
service in the First World War has given
him an understanding attitude toward
our boys who now are SO Loyalty defend
ing our country. I'm sure, too, he was
cognizant Of the fact that we had little
time left in the Capital City and he put
forth every effort to help US make the
most of 1t. His secretary took us
through the Capitol Building and spent
quite some time with us. The time spent
with them leaves the most pleasant
memory. If I were ever to be member
of Congress hope I'd be just as thought
tul OF my constituents as he and his
secretary were to us.
Later on, in the rotunda of the Capt.
tol, the former neighbor boy from home
who'd made good met us there. He left
no stone unturned to take us here and
there. pointing out all historical places
and making sure We missed nothing. 1t
Is refreshing to meet old friends like
him who, after years in the city, do not
forget their former friends and neigh
bors.

"THIRTTETH STREET.

Dear Sir:
Il want to tell you an amazing thing
about cat, and to ask you II you think
it could be true.
Recently our old cat died He was
longtime pet, beloved by the entire
family
"On the night Of his death sat up
with him all night.
"At almost regular intervals OF about
10 minutes he would meow in a peculiar
tone such as he had never used before
in his long life.
when I would pat his head then, he
seemed satisfied but in about 10 minutes
he would cry out again.
when We were digging his last resting
place, all the time 1t seemed to me, at
intervals, that I could hear his voice.
Il do not believe it was imagination,
but that actually heard him.
These calls came more or less all
day, but at increasing intervals, and
finally they ceased.
do you think he really called to us
from the place where all good cats go?
Sincerely, A. N"
+ =
This phenomenon has been noted BY
many persons in connection with house
cats.
What one actually hears, of course,
is not the animal, because he is gone,
but a sort of impression which has
been built up by repetition.
This impression, however, is more than
just an impression.
1t Is something that hovers in the
mystic realm between worlds, so that
no one can say either that it is, exactly,
or that it isn't.
In other words, as we see it, it is i'm
possible to say exactly what it is, be-
cause nobody knows. Perhaps in the
sensible years to come, when peace re-
turns, such matters as this will receive
renewed attention.
The cat, we believe, is the only animal
which projects its cries into forms which
llnger, whatever one chooses to call
these forms.
The cat through the centuries has been
regarded as psychic animal
Almost every one knows how, when
coming into a room, 1t will suddenly
stop and stare fixedly at some point.
Let human being look as hard as he
can, he can see nothing Yet the
cat sees something, and every one who
watches it is convinced that it does.

The cries of the house cat have an
augmented effect upon persons who re-
gard them favorably.
They are clear, liquid and varied, so

the war the Raj was in process of
changing over from the lightly
armed biplane fighters Of a dead era
to the Spitfires and Hurricanes.
There simply were not enough planes
to tight the Germans over Europe
and also defend England, and with
the handwriting Of defeat plainly
discernible on the continental wall
the decision to defend England was
made. Even then it was not possible
to concentrate primarily on defend
ing the cities of Britain. In a sense,
they had to be sacrificed so that the
most damaging blows could be struck
at the German raiders at minimum
expenditure of Raj planes and
pilots.
Both of these were hard decisions
to make. but they have been vindi-
Gated by experience. The Battle of
Britain, which began on August 8,
1910, and which ended on October
81, has never been resumed by the
defeated Germans. Goering switched
to the night blitzes and even these
were becoming too costly to sustain
when the Lutwaffe was withdrawn
from it's Channel bases in mid1941
to prepare for the attack on Russia.
Now the shoe is on the other foot,
and it is the German fighter COM
mand that is straining every nerve
to turn back the Allied bombers that
are reducing the Reichs cities to
rubble. But Goering and his Luft-
waite have not yet demonstrated
that they are capable of duplicating
the performance of the Raj three
wears ago today.

by and never blink--he who so soon may
be sent overseas. But 1 determined not
to spoil our last visit together. Mothers
somehow are given the strength for
each days need. I'll never forget his
smiling face as he waved to me when
my train was pulling out of sight. That
picture Is treasured memory.
Now I am back home on this Iowa
farm, feeding chickens and managing
these fertile acres, just trying to do my
bit, conscious and ever reminded of all
our sons are fighting to preserve. I see
the tasseling corn, the stubble fields
where wheat and oats so recently waved
their golden heads, cattle and hogs fat
tening.
Yes, I've been to Washington. 1t was
all so different from what we had
planned in those bygone years which
now seem so long ago. Yes, I'd seen and
talked to so many. I'd gotten the diff
ferent viewpoints-as one grows older
one learns to listen as we'll as to talk.
I've never asked anything from either
political party-but after returning
home-back to this Iowa farm-Im
conscious more than ever of our oblga-
ton to our Nation. Our Government is
what We make it. There must be some
safe, sane, middle course. We must hold
fast to all the good things we have at
tanned and toss into the discard the
things which would destroy our way Of
life. My son is still in the Army camp
near our Nations Capital. I'm resolved
to do my bit out on this Iowa farm so
that his service, along with that Of
thousands Of other boys in uniform, will
not be in vain.
