Dear Colonel:
Well, the sparrows are leaving the
park but the squirrels are coming
back-the tomato season is on.
All day long all you hear in the
lobby of the Montezuma is tomatoes
tomatoes TOMATOES! Then you
duck the lobby and go over to the
park. Again: tomatoes-tOmatOes-
TOMATOES! I wonder if guys in
other professions CD or trades keep

Do you suppose when a bunch of,
for instance, plumbers get together

pipe, etc.? Or if butchers debate on

Pointing to a map of China,

Jap planes out of the sky for five
years, young Chennault said:

kidneys?
I guess, at that, thought has
always happened. I can remember
when I was kid, my old man who
was a hod-carrier, would get to-
gether with a bunch of IriShmen
who all carried the hod, and over a
can or two of beer they would kid
and laugh and lie to each other.
You know, in those days forty
years or so ago, all the hod-carriers
were Irish-remember? The younger
generation wouldn't know about
them. But a hod-carrier' job was
to load up that hod with bricks or
mortar-it only weighed about 110
pounds-and put that hod on his
shoulder and carry it up ladder
to the bricklayers on the second or
third floors. Incidentally, all the
bricklayers were German tradesmen.
They used to get around $40 per
week. The hod-carriers got about
$12. But my old man used to say
that the hod-carriers had cinch.
All they had to do was to carry up
the bricks, "but thin Sauer-kraut
brick-layers had to put thin to-
gether."
He also used to say: Many is the
laugh L had on thin Dutchmin.
used to wait until about five minutes
before noon, and thin I'd shtart up
the ladder with it, I'd just about
get to the top-rung of the ladder
and the whistle would blow for noon
lunch. I'd back right down, with
that load, and say to thin Heinies,
IT hell wit ye. I'll bring it back
at one o'clock
incidentally, Colonel, speaking
about building houses-did you know
that Andy Bookas is building a
house up on Crawford street? So
far it's cost him nothing. Seems
he won the lot in poker game.
And the way he gets his bricks He
stands in front of his place and
thumbs his nose at his neighbors
and they keep throwing rocks and
bricks at him. He says he's already
got enough for the first floor, but
they don't all match He hasn't
figured out yet how to get the roof
for the building.
He's one of the few single guys
left in town now. Offhand, all the
eligible bachelors Iscan think of are
Andy, Joe Bacon, Charley Bauer,
and the DUMMY.
That's about all, except if you
can use your influence you might
write to Mayor Hudgin and ask him
to put few Stats in the park
benches Anyone with broader
seat of knowledge than Max Arnold
can't fit into the seats.
Best regards,
MARTY.

You MAY THINK Germany is growing weaker.

In many military respects, she is actually
growing stronger. Here's how:

grow shorter, her military might will
gather power, like coiling spring. The
Nazi armies that fought furiously az

Caucasus will fight even more furiously
as the fighting approaches Poland and
Germany proper.
