Uncle LeMiA
Says: ~

I pity the man who doesn't like
to read book on rainy day.
Some of the toorries Uhich come to
US are really none of our business.
A lot of things can be done with
money, but saving it seems to be
the hardest.
OF all the animals, the dog
seems to get the most out of life.
He knows how to love.
Many a good business has been
built up primarily on good man
ners.
Fashion wears out more apparel
than women do.
Veil admit that inquisitipeness turned
in the right direction is useful, but not
in ours.
The mystery of what is in the
dishes you like most somewhat
accounts for your fondness for
them.

Salvaging Never Stops,
Even on the Battlefield

With United States Middle East
FOrces-The American army serv-
ice forces salvage work never lets
up-even on the battlefield.
Battle, and conditions attendant
to battle, causes breakage and re-
duction of much materiel to junk !;
but great deal of it can be re-
claimed, and no small amount of
enemy equipment is turned to good
use against the former owners.
Worn shoes, canvas, baskets,
boxes are repaired and used again.
Shells, remnants of tanks, propel-
lor blades, rubber tires, steel-all
are piled in a compound, and as
soon as the pile gets large enough,
it goes back to the United States
for processing, eventually coming
back to hit the Axis.
The government is doing every
thing possible to save money and
shipping space and to repair,
where possible, materiel so that it
can get back into the fight as soon
as possible. 1t means lives saved
and battles won.

we've had two supplementary pay

Mind you," I put in, "I'm not
complaining. I eat regularly and I
have a roof over my head. I can
get haircuts and movie tickets

Rugged,1ess of Horses

Looking over the list of retired or
injured horses, a somewhat baff1ed
non-combatant wants to know why
a human athlete carries so much
more ruggedness and durability than
a horse.
The answer is fairly simple. re-
call no human being who was ever
called upon to carry from 1000 to
1,100 pounds upon such slender un-
der pinning. Babe Ruth was a
marvel in supporting from 225 to
$50 pounds upon thin ankles for 20
years.
When a 1,050 pound horse steps
into a hole or a rut, particularly
when the animal is travelling around
80 miles an hour, something is bound
to bend if not to break.
Injuries and ailments have be-
devilled the 1943 racing season.
When it opened the menu looked to
be one of the best ever presented.
Whirlaway, Alsab, Shut Out, Alache.
and Market Wise were among the
handicap stars. There was Count
Fleet to handle the three-year-olds.

An Angle on Betting

Considering the fact that all work
ing mutuel machines, plus an in
creasing number of bookmakers, are
breaking all betting records this sea-
son, your correspondent has gone to
work on the best advice one could
give to the millions of dreamers
who believe they can still beat II
per cent.
You can't tell folks to stop bet
ting-any more than you can tell
them to stop breathing or stop eat
ing.
But after careful survey, lifted
from the old-timers, there are few
details that at least may cut down
their losses. And that is the big idea.
Here were the betting suggestions
that a number of betting veterans
offered
1. Don't try to beat every race,
with IL per cent working against
you. 1t can't be done.
2. Bet on the nose-or to win and
show-not win and place. The show
bet may protect you. Practically no
old-time gambler ever kicks in with
a place bet.
8. Here are the factors that must
be considered
Past performance-jockey-track
condition-weight-post position
stable-and the betting price. Beat
ing the price-the overIay-can be
a big factor once in a while.
4. Duck tips and lunches.

Dangerous Threat

In Turkey, a man may receive
a sentence of from one to three
years when he wounds another
and the victim RECEIVERS. Howev-
er, he receives from four to seven
years when he merely threatens
another with weapon, as the re-
suits of the threat" were never
realized and the victim might have
been killed.

As Young Ladies Do,
This One Had Her Choice

The manager of business firm
who was a widower had noticed
that his son seemed rather in
terested in his pretty secretary.
The young man had only recent
ly entered the firm, and the boys
father did not care for the pros
pect of an early engagement. He
determined to speak to the young
man, but was forestalled by the
girl, who entered his office and an
nounced that the son had proposed
to her and that she had accepted
him.
