OUR medics never give up. Like the kid

on the operating table twice. His heart ac-
tually stopped twice. but both times the doc

These needles, nurses and internes give

Keep Shoes
In Good Repair

TODAY IN time OF ratloning
it is imperative that we all keep
our shoes in the best of repair.
Be sure to get your shoes re-
paired as soon as they need
attention, especially if they
need new heels, because run
over heels will throw the shoes
out of shape. This can cause
foot troubles and in the long
run you will be out more
money.
When your shoes get wet the
best way 10 dry them and have
them keep their shape is 10 stuff
them with newspaper. Stuff the
paper, in tightly. and let the
shoes dry naturally, away from
any heat. Then rub them well
with saddle soap, foot oil, or
petroleum jelly.

Bose Pears
BY PRUDENCE PENNY

FRESH FALL and winter
pears from the West are again
in the markets. The good news
is that the crop is excellent this
year - estimated at about a
million and a half boxes over
last seasons supply.
Right now is the time to use
Bose pears-those long. taper
ing, slender-necked beauties
that take on such a rich CHINA
mon color and simply drip with
sweet luscious juice when ripe.
The Bose is the first OF the new
crop to move to market and is
seasonal only until January.
The Comice variety is in sea-

Serve in New Ways
That's why the latter is the
one to use now in many differ
ent, taste-tempting ways - in
salads, fr'.it cups, pies, buildings
and baked like apples. 1t is par
ticularly good when baked.
Many stores and markets are
now Off ring fall md winter

cally preripened and can be
eaten Immediately on purchase.
These are called conditioned or
redi-ripe and provide the ulti-
mate in eating quality. Bose

tive that nothing was further from his
mind when he foretold of devastating
air raids against Germany and Nazi-
held territories than to imply that the
second front would be postponed.
Washington and London are aware
that the chief condition to keeping the
present understanding between the Big
Three-America, Russia and Britain
is the opening Of an invasion Mr..
Churchill has pledged himself definitely
to this Job and any deviation from the
military plans set at Teheran as long
as he is Prime Minister likely would
break up the triumvirate which has been
consolidated by the signing Of the agree
ments In the capital Of Iran.
Political considerations, it is said in
responsible quarters, did not enter into
the Teheran picture except as a side
light. They were settled at the earlier
conference of foreign secretaries at
Moscow. They may have been per-
functorily discussed by President Roose-
velt, Mr.. Churchill and Premier Stain
to confirm further what had already
been settled. But Premier Stain is re-
ported to have been most emphatic in
his insistence that the Allies start ham,
mering at the Nazi military power as
soon as convenient so that a large
pincer movement can be applied from
the east and the west.

Stain also is reported as having dis
couraged the idea held by so many
specialists in this country and Britain
that Hitler could be made to surrender

NOBODY Is reading anything any more,
even handwriting on walls.
One OF Mr.. Vandenbergs leading Jour-
nalistic supporters in Washington re-
ports happily that Mr. Vandenbere has
coined new slogan: The President is
running for fourth term on an anti
Congress platform Could be. But
what platform is Mr.. Vandenbere run
ming on, Whatever he is running for? If
we consider the Baruch report to be
the work OF presidential agent, then
we must at least concede that it showed
conciliatory presidential attitude to-
ward Congress, that it turned the de-
mobilization job over to Congress. If
Mr.. Vandenberg represents Congress
tnen ne and Congress have won a great
victory in the report.
But he seems to have been so anxious
TO continue the fight between Congress
and the President that he disreearded
the victory. treated 1t as a defeat, and
went on with the hostilities.

Of the river Dvina. But the head
waters Of that river already are
assailed by Red attacks in White
Russia which are growing in in
tensity. Thus the entire German
defense system is under continuous
pressure which presumably will not
slacken until the temporary respite
due to the spring thaws that are
still a considerable distance away.
All this furnished the background
for Marshal Stalin's confident pre-
diction that "the German Fascist
war machine has been placed by the
Red Army on the verge of complete
defeat. 1t should now be clear to all
that Hitlerite Germany is advanc-
ing inevitably toward catastrophe. I"
His only qualification was a warning
against overconfidence or COM
placency, coupled with the necessity
for united, unremitting effort to
speed the day of final victory. Here,
Stain and Churchill strike the
same note.
