How to Grow Up to Be d, Soldier

A 13-year-old boy who wants to be
an infantryman when he gets a lit
tie older is closer to his goal by two
official handbooks and letter of
encouragement and advice from a
busy brigadier general, according to
the War Department.
There will always be an Army

than a mechanic, or a doctor, or a
salesman" Brig. Gen. George H.
Weems. assistant commandant of
the Infantry School. Fort Benning

The letter was forwarded to the
Infantry School, where Gen. Weems
paused in the midst of training
duties to answer it promptly and
send along copies of the Soldiers
Handbook and the Handbook for
Officer Candidates.
The general wrote that "the best
way that young man can prepare
to be soldier-not very exciting,
I'm afraid-is to prepare mentally
by learning as much as he can, in
school and out; by observing the
rules for good health and building
a strong body, and by developing

BIundford Sees Threat
Of Lime Shortage
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
A threatened shortage of agri-
cultural lime in Maryland was re-
ported over the week end by Chair
man Joseph H Blandford of the
State Agricultural Adjustment
Agency, who said three possible
sources of relief already had been
sighted.
He explained that Maryland
farmers have contracted to use a
record quantity of lime this year.
The State AAA Committee alone has
ordered 100000 tons for distribution
among $4,000 cooperating farmers,
while commercial sales to farmers
were running even higher.
The shortage may be ayerted
through the use of Maryland prison
labor to produce lime, the reduction
In industrial demand for lime may
ease the situation, and the War
Production Board, in an emergency,
could divert lime from industrial
reserves, MIR. Blandford said.
