 We've seen girls who have been used to everything marrying Serv. ice men, and In order to be with them aS long as they are in this country, living in one drab room and working all day to help pay for even that kind of existence.
 We've seen girls who have neveC before been away from home sub- hitting to the regimentation Of Army and Navy life, because they couldn't bear to go on feeling "use- less" in war time.
 We've seen wives, who never dreamed they would have to bring up their children without any help from their husbands, stepping in and taking over the job
 
 NO EXCUSE
 We've seen women used to secur- lty all their lives giving up their homes. selling their furniture and living on q nttel money because their husbands gave up good jobs to get into uniform.
 We've seen mothers courageously take the news that Q son was miss. ing in action, and 90 right on with their war work.

Now South would bid six hearts, showing two kings, As North could then count at least B tricks he would bid seven no rtuTnp. As Hawk said, this is cer- tainly the right answer in this case as the combined hands have all the tricks.

or against a minority bondholders'
petition that the Florida East Coast
Railway reorganization case be re-
opened.
The briefs must be filed on or
before December 8.
Last week, S. A. Lynch and Jo-
seph B. Whitman asked the COM
mission to defer action on the case
long enough to allow them to file
brief in support of their petition
that the case be reopened for con-
sideration of new reorganization
plan.
A plan accompanying the petition
would permit purchase by the At
lantic Coast Line Railroad Of 60
per cent of the reorganized Florida
East Coasts stock.
The st. Joe Paper CO. of Florida,
owner of about SIS per cent of the
Florida East Coasts first and re-
