3-They tend 10 be, although
there are exceptions. This -
partly because people of high
intelligence average better in

their greater intelligence gives

 l GIFT ITEM FOR SOLDIERS

HEADQUARTERS, ALASKAN DEPARTMENT, Sept. 2o-dt still may be sweltering in the East and Middle West, but it is Christmas time in Alaska and the Aleutian chain which points it's arrow like a dart at the heart of Japan.
 The folks in the States who have sons and husbands serving in Alaska and Aleutian posts shouldn't plan on buying flow CTS to add to their Christmas dec orations--for that is the number one choice of the men for' the Christmas preSent to send home.
 This was revealed by checking every Post Exchange in the de- partment clear out to the tip of the Aleuians.
 The specially designed cata- logue put out by the parent Ex- cange, originated a year ago to fill the needs of the men serving overseas, is chuck full of gift sug- gestions for every member of the family.
 Each PIX here designates a per- son in the organization to be available during certain stated hours to fill out the orders of the men. The orders are sent to New York and the gifts, bedecked with Christmas wrapping and contain ing an appropriate card bearing the sender's name, are mailed from there.
 Orders are being taken until October 1st, with a guarantee of delivery in time for the Yuletide. Some orders will be taken after that date, without the delivery guarantee.
 The number one item of flow
