Week Of Planning

BY MRS. GAYNOR MADDOX
NEA staff Writer

Your week Of planned buying and
ration arithmetic gives you 30 red
points for five-pound leg of lamb,
on Sunday. Prepare the meat care
fully and roast in the modern way
10 get most flavor with least pos
sible meat shrinkage.
The Waterbury Democrat. [volume] (Waterbury, Conn.) 1917-1946, 1943-05-14

Why take the unnecessary dia-
mond finesse until you find out
whether or not the heart suit will
break? The safe play is to win
the third club, then lead small
spade to dummy's queen, estab-
fishing a spade trick. OF course
East will return a club, but now
if the heart suit breaks, you make
five heart tricks. two diamonds,
q club and a spade-nine tricks.
Once again I cannot help but
say, count your tricks and the
squeeze plays and end-plays will
take care OF themselves.

Pacific Area Soldier,
Thirst for Education,
Mrs. Roosevelt Saws

Duty IN the South Pacific has de-
veloped great thirst for educa-
ton" among American soldiers, Mrs.
Roosevelt declared last night at Con-
stitution Hall. where she was guest
speaker in the first of the 56th an
nual lecture series sponsored by the
National Geographic Society.
1.-THE question most frequently
asked during my tour Of Army
camps in the South Pacific area
was DO you think when we get
home we'll get chance for educa-
tion?'" she said, and added that
this was due partly to the great ele-
ment of individual responsibility
resting upon these boys in jungle
fighting. They have developed a
resourcefulness and ingenuity they
have never known before"
The soldiers have had to meet
many new and serious things in this
theater of operations, Mrs. Roose-
velt continued. "They have fought
in terrain they have never seen be-
fore. They are fighting in jungles
when they've never seen jungle.
They are fighting in swamps when
they never before imagined that
such existed"
Hardest Lesson.
Their hardest lesson, she said. has
been to learn that you cannot trust
a Jap. I'VE are trusting people
and believe all people live by the
same standards as We. The boys
with each other and with any one
from home are still the same open,
happy, cheerful youngsters-but not
when they talk about or deal with
the enemy"
Another question which concerned
the boys "over there" was Whats
happening at home?" She said that
they had heard that the civilians
were going to be hungry this winter,
and were worried. They wanted to
know how rationing was handled
and if meat was really hard to get
Was it awfully bad at home?"
I'VE can be proud of the way
our boys have behaved in New Zea-
land and Australia" Mrs. Roosevelt
added. They have been wonderful
ambassadors. And we should be
grateful for the wonderful way they
have been taken into the homes of
the New Zealanders and Austral-
ians."
Mrs. Roosevelt said that when
she first visited the islands and saw
the dense jungles and swamps she
didn't see how "the boys advanced
at all-that is, until I saw them in
training"
In Mud to Waist.
In the swamps, she explained,
the boys sometimes sink in the
mire to their waist and with carry
ing a machinegun. that's no joke.
Nor is it to be afraid to move or
you'll be discovered first. They
must learn the ability to be notion
less for hours at time"
She lauded the movie as the
only real entertainment the BOYS
can count on day in and day out"
She greatly commended the work
Of the Medical Corps in curbing the
course Of malaria in the supply line

anything where war is going on"

Robinson CrusOe In Real Life
Lived Four Years On Lonely Isle

lutionary period, when Chile was
fighting for independence from
Spain, patriots who were captured
by the Spaniards were banished to
the islands, confined in coves until
Chile became free and liberated them.
The Juan Fernandez islands are
famous not only as the abode of Rib
inson Crusoe. Isolated from the
mainland, they are inhabited by
strangely different plants and ami
mails, by means of which scientists
have studied evolution. And today,
fishing companies are established
there, fish of many types abounding
in the surrounding waters. The
gian Juan Fernandez dobsters, fire.
quently reaching length of from
two to three feet, have become fa-
nous the world over for their tasty
meat.
Since the days of Robinson Cru
soc" the Juan Fernandez have
known a checkered and interesting
history. No longer are they the
desolate rocks jutting from the blue
Pacific that Selkirk chose for his
exile. In a world at war, the is
lands occupy a strategic position as
outposts for the defense of the con-
tinent in the Pacific area.

Combination OF Factors Explains Loss
And Delay In Mail To Overseas Forces

forces from one point to another also
is responsible for delays. Censor
ship also may cause delays, altho
this is held to minimum.
SHIP SINIINGs
Ship sinkings account for much OF
the lost mail. Many thousands OF
letters and packages have been lost
by enemy action.
Many postal patrons have Won
dered why there is better service
from the foreign destination to this
country than from this country to
the foreign destination. This Is be-
cause less mail comes from the
armed forces than goes to them and
that on return trips more space is
available on the ships. In addition
the location of addresses in this
country is more stable than that OF
the overseas personnel.
V-MAIL PRIORITY
V-mail letters are given priority
over other types of mail and general
ly are sent by plane.
The post office has no facilities to
provide the addresses and locations
of soldiers, sailors and marines
abroad. When it is necessary to OBJ
tain such addresses they must be Sc
cured from the Office of The Adju-
tant General, War Department,
Washington, D. c.; or in case of
sailors from the Bureau of Naval
Personnel, Navy Department, Wash
ington; and of marines from the
Marines Corps Headquarters, Navy
Department Building, Washington.
