North Yard Elect
By Mary E. Holloway

Where did Andy Hiding get the blisters on his hands? We under stand he is planting Victory Gar den up near Fort GriswOld. The sod is pretty tough, eh Andy?
 Are you going to have scare crow to keep the soldiers away from your tomatoes?
 George McMann reports that Jimmy Sheehan, the youngest member of the electrical gang, has grown exactly one inch taller since his arrival at the E. B. Go.
 Jimmy came to us in January of this year, and he's doing 8 swell job. Incidentally, Jimmy is going out in the model to work.
 There seems to be great deal of controversy in Dept. 331 on the following matter:
 If you put pail of water weigh ing twenty pounds on a scale, place a live fish weighing five pounds into the pail of water, the scales will still register twenty pounds.
 Can you prove 1t to be right? Please write in your answersD
 Bertie O'Dell and several others have been arguing over this mat ter for the past few months. Please help us to settle it as soon as pos Sible.
 Either write in your proof, or submit 1t to Dept. 331 main yard.
 Thank you.

FIGHTING SONS

There are many boys of many
 states
 Engaged in this terrible war; Each one is doing his part So we can live in peace once
 more. Our boys are fighting very hard And all they ask of you Is to buy a bond so you can help To see them win through. Yes, our boys are fighting mad For they shall always remember The dirty trick Japan played On the 7th day of December. When the Axis picked on the Unit
 ed States
 It made peace loving people mad. For Japan is going to get paid
 back
 More than once and twice as bad. So don't be surprised, Little
 Tokyo
 When our boys come marching Waving the flag that beats them The flag that shall always win.

 It seems that we have a few sun worshippers in the office, because that first sunny day few of the girls went out and tried to get enough to last them the sea- son. Most of them came back camoufaged as boiled Holsters; some couldn't get in at all.
 Congratulations to Papa Dimick, he just gave birth to (what am saying) his wife just gave birth to another exemption. (What are you doing, Dick, timing them?) Thanks for the cigar anyway.
 I certainly would like to be in Maxwell's shoes right now as he is on a weeks vacation. He prob ably is on some beautiful beach enjoying the sun and Waves or sailing in his boat.
 By this time many of you have missed Ann and just to ease your minds she is now painter at the main yard.
 Florence Small has also left us for a few weeks. She has gone to the main yard to give them a help ing hand until something or other happens and then she is coming back.
 Best one of the week: Mike Cam estrari having everyone guessing what that six-sided thingamagig with no openings was. He got all sorts of answers: from private rotating bar to minister's pulpit and from a raffle stand to a saw ing the woman In half trick, but 1t was only novel idea for hlS work sheets. Sort of a rotating file.
 P. w. of the Go. inspectors Is hoping that his little exemption will arrive before July 1st and C. w. of the same dept. Is hoping that his will arrive before December Is.
 After driving for years without an accident, C. S. is now a full fiedged driver, yep, she just got her license

In West Africa, where 1t. Max
well is serving, she found the natives
exceptionally friendly, intelligent
and in many cases very well edu-
Gated. 1t. Maxwell has succumbed
completely to the lure of native
foods, speaking in glowing terms of
"Jalloph Rice with Palaver Sauce" +"
which is comparable to Spanish rice.
She finds that the natives are eager
to please the Americans and are
flattered to learn that their native
foods are SO enthusiastically re-
ceived.
After completing nurses training
at the Kansas City General Hos
pital No. 2, 1t. Maxwell served as
ward nurse at Los Angeles County
Hospital for four years before en-
. tering the Army Nurses Corps.
1t. Maxwell described her voyage
to Africa as "uneventful,' but adj
mits that She went native upon her
return to America, shouting: Good
o. (Which means tops to you and
n1e)
In Los Angeles, 1t. Maxwell will
visit with her parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
Charles Maxwell, and six sisters and
one brother s~ .5ss

Taking top honors for unique

flee. The WAC's Christmas tree is
very beautiful. understand the
reason for the WACs not wanting
their boy friends to put presents on
the tree is: (dig it?) some are eX-
pecting presents from several and it
wouldn't be right for all of them to
be present at the staged time. Those
presents on the tree are to be from
home and one another. Nov it
wasn't told to me. only heard"
Making nice Christmas scenery
are the lovely greetings placed on

this way-our bug1er belongs to the
