Oxon Hill Purchases
Flag Honoring Boys
In Armed Forces
Prize Contribution
By A. Deanna Pirce, IL,
Oxon Hill High School.

Although we at OXon Hill are
small in number, we have contri-
buted much to the war effort. We
have fitted ourselves for service to
our country by taking advantage OF
the offers made to us. BY Offers
mean the wartime schedule pre-
pared by Army and Navy officers tc
give students better chance for ad-
vancement in the services. The
schedule includes physical fitness
preflight aeronautics, trigonometry
ana - surprisingly, perhaps "a re-
gular English class in which theme
writing is stressed.
Not only have we followed this
schedule, but we have also given
many of our boys to Uncle Sam and
their number is increasing rapidly
We expect to relinquish at least one
more boy in February, Richard
Daniels.
Two of our boys have been killed
in line Of duty. In their honor, and
in the honor Of our other boys in
service, the National Honor Society
is purchasing a flag. This flag will
consist Of navy blue star and,
under 1t, the number of boys in
service. Also, it will have a gold
star and beneath it will be a num-
ber indicating the boys who have
died in action.

I know more about them. I don't

I've written letters to Mickey Ver-

Dom Di Maggie, Boston Red SoX
outfielder; Tommy Bridges, Detroit

The way I get the players ad-

Uncle Rays Corner

In the story which he left about
his travels, Marco Polo speaks many
times about Kublai Khan, the DOW
ertul monarch who ruled China. O,
Cathay, in the 18th century. In one
place in his account, he says:
'kublal is styled the grand khan
or lord of lords He is of middle
height, neither tall nor short. His
limbs are well formed and his Skin
Is fair. His eyes are black, and his
nose is we'll shaped and strong"
Besides the Mongolians and Chi
nese in Kublai's empire, there were
many wandering Tartar tribes.
These people" Marco says. 'offel
incense and prayers to their chief
god, who is called 'Natigay.' They
keep his image in every home, and
show him great respect. At their
meals. they never fail to take a fat
morsel of flesh and use it to grease
the mouth of the idol"
Shortly before he reached 38
Marco talked with his father and
uncle about going back to their ma
tive land. They had been treated
we'll in Cathay, but were lonesome
for their old friends.
Kublai did not like to have them
leave, but at last agreed. He asked
them to escort a Mongolian princess
to Persia, land then ruled by
Arghun Khan, grand-nephew.
Ihe princess was to become the
bride of the Persian ruler.
Two years were spent in the trim
to Persia, and when the party
reached there Arghun was dead
But 1t seemed necessary for the
princess to be turned over to some
one, so she was given in marriage to
the khan's successor on the throne.
From Persia, the Polos made their
way to Venice. They had been gone
from the city for "a years, having
been in Cathay II years of that
time and having spent the other 7
years travelling.
In those days, Italy was far from
being a united country, and wars
took place between the cities. In a
war between Venice and Genoa
Marco fought as a Venetian soldier
and was captured. While held by
the enemy, he told his story to a
fellow prisoner, and this man wrote
down what he heard. Thanks to
the event the Book of Marco Polo"
was prepared.
Marco was freed after year and
returned to Venice. There he was
married to a woman known as Do
nata, and three daughters were born
to the couple. He became better
known than the elder Polos because
he had composed the Book of Marco
Polo" He lived to the age of 70,
dying in Venice in 1924.

If you are one of The Junior Stars
rural readers, you may get a worth
while money-making idea from this
note from Henry Richardson, II,
who attends country school near
Bannack, Mont:
Il earn money by building the
fire at the schoolhouse. I go over
at z o'clock in the morning, empty
the ashes and start the fire. I also
carry in the coal. The School Board
pays me S. a month, with which I
have been purchasing War Stamps. .
How do you earn spending money?

one of The Junior Stars prizes of

There's an art to painting land.
scapes, or playing on the flute
1t requires hours of practice to learr
to make a suit.
The art Of it is knowing how, anc
why and where and when.
The art of living every day is rarely
known to men.
1t first requires cheerful smile
when things are getting blue,
And then you're always ready tc
begin your life anew.
Tolerance is next on the list-it soon
removes all doubt
And flying on the heels of it is
Health, to help you out.
When happiness comes naturally
you're really doing fine.
You now can go into the world and
live life divine.
Remembering these teachings shows
that you've made quite a start
For there is no use in living if YOU

the stamps all portray produce of
the island and are in pastel shades"
Whether or not such labels really
are needed for postal purposes or
merit being catalogued is, perhaps,
a matter of opinion. But conserva-
tive collectors, it is fair to say, are
not friendly to them. The De Gaul-
list movement" lacks the status of
a government.
In review of the 1914 edition of
the Whitfield King catalogue, pub
llshed in England, says George A.
Scott, the Philatelic Journal of
Great Britain notes that no fewer
than 94 different stamps issued dur
ing the German occupation of Po-
land are listed without price quota
tlonS. These include both German
and Polish stamps with overprints
and many sets in new pictorial de-
signs. Considering that the cata-
logue's listing of new issues of
enemy-occupied countries is natu-
rally incomplete, the Journals re-
viewer observes: "We do not envy
the publishers of world catalogues
when the end of the war lets loose
all the monstrosities. The numbers
alone will run into thousands. and
it will be no easy matter to decide
what is worthy of recognition and
what Is not
w. Narajowski, Assistant Finan-
cisl Counselor of the Embassy of
Poland, IA Wall street, New York
City, says: THE present issues of
postage stamps of Poland are for
use on letters posted on Polish
merchantmen on the high seas and
warships all over the world. The
Polish Postal Service, which has
been operating since 1e41, has been
re-established in accordance with
theterms of the Universal Postal
