Passing Score
Of Charm Quiz
Wins Popularity
BY ALICIA HART

Best criterion of a. young girl S
charm and adult behavior is her
attitude toward older people. From
a practical angle, it's good thing
to be charming, because older
people give out jobs, hand out col
lege grades, make recommended
tons.
So, let's conduct a quiz to see
what your charm rating is. Cues
lions to which I hope you c a n
honestly say "yes' and if you
can't, will do something about it
are complied by the faculty of
the John Powers School, where
girls attitudes are coached.
Do you stand up when an older
person enters the room?
Are you an interested listener
when an older person talks of the
past?
Do you suggest bridge and mac
tive games when there are older
people present?
Do you steer conversation to
topics that interest older people,
too?

something for the men themselves.
But when it comes to doing some
thing for their wives it is often a
different story. Yet most service
men would probably have their
morale boosted much more by
knowink their wives were being
looked after and remembered than
by anything that could be done for
them.
The Wilmington morning star., 1944-08-30
BY RUTH MILLET

The young woman, whose hus
band is still in this country, said:
81 think war wives have a lot Of
nerve to try to keep up social
life with couples. After all, 1t is
awkward when they entertain with
no man around to act as host. And
it's worse when you have to invite
them back, because who wants a
lone woman at a party?"
It would be hard to beat that at
titude for downright selfishness.
The wives who still have their men
at home ought to feel that the
least they can do for the war wives
of their community is to give them
a little social life to break the mo-
notony of being lone woman"
After all the men who go to war
are fighting and some of them are
dying for the men and women who
are leading civilian lives. And their
wives are taking the rap of loneli-
ness and separation for the women
whose husbands are still in this
country.
There is still another angle. The
woman who thinks a war wife
hasn't any business trying to stick
with the crowd of married couples
she and her husband joined in
peace time would be the very first
to criticize a war wife for making
different kind of social life for
herself by dating other men.

gists coroborated Sab Ding and

found oil enough to - excited
about.
They did, however, serve to
prove fairly well that there was
vast amount of overthrusting in the
area, and that while the wrinkles
on the surface were reflection of
a structural condition, the surface
was not reliable guide to subsur-
face highs"
For a long time, operators let 1t
go at that Since the surface was
not a reliable indicator of the sub
surface, most stayed out of the area,
choosing instead to drill where
there was at least a reasonable con-
formity between surface and sub
surface beds.
Several factors have contrib
uted to bring about a renewed
interest in the area.
One was an extended survey con-
Quoted this year by a U.S.G.S. party
While the U.SG.S. is as usual
tagging in reporting on the survey,
it is authoritatively reported the
biologists found the Devonian,
wherever exposed, to include pc
troliferous source beds in close con-
tact with good reservoir rocks.
The DevOnian where penetrated
by wells drilled quite a distance
east of the Rockies, closer to the
crest of the Sweetgrass Arch, has
been found notably lacking in both
oil showings and porosity.
Belief is now growing that
somewhere close TO the noun
tains, If proper structural con-
dstion can be found, the DeyOni-
am where penetrated win carry
oil, In rocks with sufficient
p0rOsity and permeabiIity TO
yield IL readily.
This belief would have left OPP
orators right back where they
started, admitting the possibility of
production if proper structural con
ditions could be found, but baffled
in finding such conditions, had not
4 another factor entered the picture.
That factor is the seismograph
and II has been used intensively in
the area during the past year
Enough wells in some sections of
the area have been drilled to the
top of the Madison lime to provide
an accurate check on the instru.
ment, and some very extensive sur.
veys have been made
Such surveys have further re-
vealed that even the most painstak
ing surface mapping is of little
value in locating either Madison OF
| Devonian highs" in the area af
fected by the mountain thrusting
though a sharp-dip surface struc
ture may be paralleled by subsur
face wrinkling in the immediate
area.
While numerous operators

only few are out In the open
and results Of some of the work
now under way are not ex-
pected TO become apparent until
next year.

JOB PLACEMENTS

Waterbury Credited With Finding Work for 276
 Handicapped Persons

Job placement of physically hand. ieapped persons by the United States Employment Service offices of the War Manpower Commission, showed a substantial increase during Aug ust, State Manpower Director Wil- liam J. Fitzgerald announced today, ln disclosing that approximately i.066 such persons were found ems pleyment. This compared with 033 placements of physically handicap. ped persons in the previous month.
 At the same time, the Manpower Director for Connecticut said that during August the United States Employment Service offices, through clearance, brought into the state 220 workers. The majority of these workers, he said, were from New York state where some POO were ob- tained; i7 from the nearby New England states, and the remaining i2 from other states.
 The city of Waterbury led the state in the placement of physically handicapped persons with a total of 276 jobs, with Bridgeport second with 266 placements recorded. The report shows that approximately l43 placements of physically handicap ped persons were made by the Hart ford office; llS by the New Haven United States Employment Service office; eo in New Britain; and 3l in Norwich. Placements by other United States Employment Service offices in the state include Ansonia
