The Army's semiautomatic rife,
adopted in 1886, is enormously called
"guh- RAND" even in the Army

The miSpronunciation apparent

that "guh-RAND" Is the French
pronunciation of the name Garand.
Not so. The French would say:

and the I'd" silent.

But he gave her the pass. 1t got her by
guards on the waterfront. Edith. this first
time, left her camera at home.
She hired girl to watch the twins while
she sat on pierheads and watched the dun
mage, which had been dumped off the ships,
drift with the tide.
There are some things that simply cannot
be concealed from foreign agents - the long
lines of freight trains pouring vital cargo
onto the wharves, and the massed ships
taking on cargo.

The days passed without incident. except
that Jerry's restlessness increased. and the
day the newsletter mentioned that Brother
Jerry Latime1 is doing great jO6 on the home

A BIG ship. showing rust through its war
paint, tied up one morning. A sister ship
appeared that afternoon, and by the follow
ing night the great wharf was crowded. Some
things the freight trains brought couldn't be
covered up - tanks, big guns and landing
barges.
Things had been quiet for weeks now. and
it was but human that the Coast Guard patrol

one evening. what's to prevent power boat

Such boat wouldn't have chance. The

As JERRY LArIAER opened the long enve-

twin sons into the yard to play. Tom and
Jerry were too young to understand their
fathers explosions of self-disgust.
well! Wellw Jerry Senior exclaimed.
We'll see what the brothers in the bond are
doing in the war" His college fraternity had
always meant lot to him.
In A few moments he was grinning. Edith
What do you think Don did?" Don, she knew,
was liable to do most anything He spotted
Jap troop train. Waited until it was running
along high bank. He dropped bomb in
front and stopped it, another behind it, and
prevented retreat. Then he blasted off the
bank and covered it up" d" He was silent awhile;
then: What do you know, Edith? Remember
Freddie? Flying over Jap-held island, and
they shot an engine out. Had hell of time
making it back. Imagine Freddie in jam like
that" Another quiet period; then: "Oh! Oh!
Harry saw Jap torpedo slam into one of our
new battleships. Water went higher'n the
mast. She didn't even slow down. He stopped
abruptly, scowled.
Edith thought, Noso IFS coming.
And what am doing?" Jerry growled.

Tom and Jerry think when they grow up?
Where were you, Daddy, in the war? And
Daddy will have to answer, Oh your father

effort at home If those kids are as smart as
we hope they'll be, they'll think Daddy's
answer was lot of hogwash - that Daddy
was heel who hid behind his wife and kids.
Do you know where should be?"
Edith knew where Jerry wanted to be more
than anywhere in the world. He was The
Tribunes" ace photographer. and he wanted
to be in a camera plane getting important
pictures with those superb cameras the Army
provided. He wanted to give his amazing
skill. and his life too if necessary. to helping
arrange world that would be safe for the
millions of Toms and Jerrys all over.

was hanging onto jerry Win the approval
Of the Army and Navy. Jerry's camera had
uncovered one Nazi agent at work, and had
helped clear up slowing down effort in a war
plant by revealing how it was done. In the
State School of Journalism. he had suggested
the idea of press photographer using his
camera to clear up crimes. The dean had given
him encouragement, and Jerry had become
something of a specialist.
There was nothing to prevent his quitting
The Tribune" and joining the Army - ex-
cept his conscience When the brass hats in
sisted he was of greater value on the home
front, it was difficult to argue the point, par
ticularly as he was right then working on an
important home-front problem. A series of
fires had broken out on the waterfront, and
the arsonists had left no clue. Port of en-
barkation officials were afraid of major
blaze that would stop the steady flow of
troops headed for Pacific areas Thus far
Jerry hadn't gotten anywhere in uncovering
the methods the firebugs used in breaking
through the ring of guards.
Now, as he alternately stormed and read
the fraternity news letter Edith tried to calm
him Finally she said, Last week went to
Colonel Rand and offered to take your place
for the duration OF course" she added, with
a touch of resentment 'he didn't take me
seriously
Hardly anyone ever did She was the small
dainty type that inspired men to help and
protect her. They were forever putting her on
pedestals, thinking her too frail to look out
for herself in the hurly- -burly of life. The fact
that she could, and did, descend unaided from
the pedestals, and sometimes beat them at
their own game, made no difference. Photog-
raphy was an example.
She'd suddenly decided to major in it at
the School of Journalism when she'd seen
Jerry Latimer emerge from darkroom. and
had fallen in love with him - just like that.
Mansfield, the instructor. had tried to dis
courage her from taking the course, shrewdly
suspecting her motive. He was sure Jerry was
going to be wiz at photography, and he
didn't want any cute little trick working be-
side him, cumming up his progress.
But she d had her way, and when Jerry had
graduated with honors, Mansfield had told a
friend, He can credit Edith with part of his
success She can do anything with camera
that he can.
She'd never done anything with it CONNER
cially, however Instead. she'd married Jerry
- which was what she'd intended to do all
along - and been an adrniring audience for
his camera triumphs. They'd had struggle
at first, what with the coming of the twins
and one thing and another, but finally Jerrys
camera had solved a crime, and after that
they'd been sitting pretty.
Now. watching the conflicting emotions
parade across Jerry's face as he read what his
fraternity brothers were doing, Edith felt like
