TOUGH SPOTS ARE SPECIALITY
 OF A. E. K.

To aid soldiers in any kind of a financial jam-except six missed passes in a row, of course-Army Emergency Relief was organized over year ago, by direction of the Secretary of War. ABR is financed by public contribution, and by such shows as This Is The Army. And it fast-acting operation, stripped of all red tape, ready to render aid to soldiers or their families when it's needed most. The whole idea is to enable soldiers to skip any wor. ry connected with money.
 You've probably heard a lot about Army Emergency Relief but this is how it works, in case you don't already know. If you are ir a spot and short of cash, report i'm. mediately to your CO, telling him exactly what the situation is Don't overbuild the yarn, or lie, because facts are checked by the American Red Cross Then, if your case warrants help, you will be sent to the Special Service office where a few details are recorded and check is handed to you.
 Your family may apply, too-at the nearest Army camp, the Red Cross, or direct to Army Emergen- cy Relief, War Department, Wash ington, D. C.
 The help you get is not always cash. Sometimes it may be ton of coal, food, shelter, clothing or hos pitalization. All loans are made without security or interest and are naturally considered moral obiga- tions of the borrower. You can pay them back on an installment plan if you wish.
 Additional assistance furnished by Army Emergency Relief in- cludes dope on getting proper al- allowances, arrears of pay and the like. And dependents are advised of their privileges under the Soldiers and Sailors Civil Relief Act of 1922, or legal rights on rents, insurance or taxes.
 Army Emergency Relief is, in fact, source of help in almost any jam and you should take advantage of it whenever you need help. Tell the folks about it, as well. And never skip a chance to support ABR or any of it's money-raising plans. you never can tell!

The 9o2nd is filled with good in- tentions for the coming year. This column has discovered the Resolu- tion lists of many of our compli- ment. We believe that through CO., operation, we might help these men toe-the-line, and therefore are dis closing some of their VOWS.
 We understand that TIA Emil Berilla has resolved to lose at least 20 pounds during the coming year, and that Pvt. Henry Schneider is going to gain 20. Smiley" Mehlin will be G.I. during 1914, and that Edwards, LeMerrer, and Murnane are going to join the s. c. T. U. Soldiers Christian Temperance Union).
 The cooks were overheard talk ing a solemn VOW to prepare noth- ing but the best of meals, and to set Macaroni before us not more than once week during 1914. "Colonel" Conder will continue to be the model soldier" of the com- pany and will strive to get at least four more stripes in the New Year. If Thiele can find his comb, he will comb his hair at least once week, and "Skurk the Jerk" Shurko is go- ing to get his hair cut every month without fail. So remember fellows, let's all cooperate and help these men keep their revolutions.
 For you unfortunate fellows that were able to get home for Christ mas, we must tell you about the gay time that "Bondy's Boys" had right here at the field. None other than S/Sgt. Constantine Jones Shimanski cooked the turkey. Hon. ors go to Pfc. Leonard Shouse for his fine biscuits and pies, and the general hard work he did to make the day success.
 We had as our guests, group of WAC's from the Base. It would have done your hearts good to see the beautiful table manners of 902, and heard the polite, scin- tilating dinner conversation of those wolves Adamson and Mark unas. M/Sgt. Shumaker actually had no Five O'clock shadow on his handsome chin.

ment was provided by Pfc. Winfield "Swoonatra" Shattuck, who sang carols and few popular numbers. Our WAC friends loved him, as we knew they would. One vivacious brunette WAC by the name of Margie (can't recall her last name, but it is written on the back of an envelope in our other pants) played the piano. It was a good time, and we can't help feeling sorry fo1 those of you that were able to spend Christmas at home.

Christmas has come and gone again. The spirit of the occasion was celebrated in the chapels on Bradley Field under the supervi- sion of the chaplains, with a big Christmas Eve Pageant and Party We had a real live Santa Claus who had many gifts which he bestowed sumptuously upon everyone present. The Christmas Pageant with it's characters (soldiers dressed in oriental robes portraying the Wise Men and Shepherds) reproduced the birth of Christ. The congrega- tion in attendance recalled the an cient story of the greatest of events in our history.
 In chapel No. 1 at Midnight Christmas Eve, the solemn High Mass was conducted with a large crowd at hand to worship. The Mass was broadcast over Station WTIC, Hartford, Connecticut. Rev. John Kennedy delivered an inspir- ing sermon.
 We are now beginning the New Year of 1914. We shall look forward to new adventure, experience and opportunities. It would be well for each of us to take an inventory of ourselves, to see wherein we have failed or have made a success. We should mend the broken parts of our character and cultivate our faith with new determination to grow in grace and favor with our Master. It is time to revise our code of New Year resolutions. At the head of the list we should place our purpose to attend Church ev- cry Sunday and all Holy Days.
 The chaplains of Bradley Field wish you a Hapy and Prosperous New Year.

WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT YOUR INSURANCE?

Often men in service are incliR- ed to feel that the arrangements they make in personal matters ara temporary, and that after the war all will have to be cancelled and remade on a civilian basis. This is certainly not true where Nation al Service Life Insurance is con- cerned.
 Though this insurance is a gov ernment project, it is by no meana only a wartime one. When serv' icemen convert their policies al the proper time to insurance of types other than the 5-year levea premium term policy which they originally bought, they are obtain ing insurance which will offer them every protection they could get in commercial life insurance policy. In other words, National Service Life Insurance will carry right on through into civilian life if the proper steps are taken for conversion.
 Another important fact is that rates will be no different upon the mans entering civilian life. Rates of course will vary with the diff ferent types of policy taken out upon conversion, but the soldiers change in status will have no bearing on them whatever.
 Former aviation cadets whose insurance was paid for by the gov. ernment while they were cadets should be especially careful to ar. range for their insurance on an enlisted mans status. Those ex-ca- dets who do not feel sure that theil insurance is satisfactorily cared for, as we'll as those who have made no arrangements at aIL should confer with their squadron insurance officers at once.

FEARFUL AIR RAIDS SOON, SAYS GENERAL H. H. ARNOLD

Fearful and terrible air attacks are in prospect for Hitler-domi- mated Germany this winter and spring." Gen. H. H. Arnold, Chief of the Air Force, told a press con- ference this week, after he had made tour of the Mediterranean war front.
 "We are bringing over to this theatre and also to England great numbers of bombers, undreamed of a year ago." General Arnold said. "The RAF will bomb every city in Germany by night, and we will by day."
 He suggested that American bombers were about ready to strike by day at every point in Germany, Hungary, Bulgaria and Rumania.
