Dorothy Dix Says

Second wives are often eaten up
with jealoSy of their husbands
first wives. Frequently this is not
without cause, because many a
poor, laundering. tactless hus-
band will not let his departed
Maria stay buried in the ceme-
terry, but is forever dragging her
out of her grave and throwing
her in the current wife's face.
OF course, it is silly for a wom-
an to get green-eyed over a ghost,
but no wife enjoys being remind
ed that she was not her hus-
bands first choice and that she
is sitting down at the second
table, or maybe the third, to par
take of the warmed-over affec-
tions and romance of the man
she loves. Naturally she knows
it, but she does not want to have
the fact rubbed in.
Now, in reality, instead of re-
garding their husbands first
wives as their enemies by mar
rlage, so to speak, and being
jealous of them, the alive wives
should look upon them as their
benefactors and be grateful to
them. For where the first wife
soWed, the second wife reaps.
Because Maria pinched pennies
and hoped buses is the reason
that Gwendolyn rides in high
powered automobile and wears a
mink coat and matched pearls.
Also. Number Two has the ad-
vantage of getting a husband who
is conditioned.
Now futile as is the jealousy of
a second wife for a first wife and
lncomprehensible as it always Is
to her husband, it is heart
breaking problem to many
woman who lies awake at night,
sobbing bitter tears into her pill
low, while she wonders what to
do about it. For she knows it
Is folly to remove all physical
reminders of No. l from the
house when she can't sweep all
the memories of her out of her
husbands mind.
Perhaps these unhappy wives
>will take tip from clever wom-
an of my acquaintance, who is
the third incumbent of her hus-
bands heart and home, and who
deliberately set herself to cut her
dead rivals out by SURPRISING
them. To begin with, she had
the initial advantage of being
young and slim and pretty,
whereas her predecessors had
been ladies who, before they
passed on to place where there
is neither marriage, nor giving in
marriage, and hence no senti-
mental complications hadf ac-
quired the middle-age spread
and lost whatever pulchritude
they possessed as girls. Also, she
was a foxy gal who knew on
Evening star., 1944-02-20

which side her bread was but
tered.
So, instead of banishing her
predecessors portraits to the at
tic, she hung them where they
confronted her husband when
ever he raised his eyes from his
newspaper, and where he could
not help contrasting them with
the glamorous young creature at
his side.
Then she went sleuthing among
his old acquaintances until she
adroitly found out the little Pc
culiarities of the ex-wives that
were likely to have gotten on a
husbands nerves. They were
good women, both. but Maria was
a nagger and so bossy that her
husband had never known bis
soul was his own, and Evelina
was a poor housekeeper who
half-starved her family.
So, No. 3 made good on all
counts in which the others had
failed, and she never, never,
never has to listen to her hus-
band tell about the dear de-
parted"

Skin Rasbes
Need Care
BY PStvjcis Ljndssy

The girl or woman who has
a chronically blemished COM
plexion should not treat II With
the ordinary run Of cosmetics.
When . skin persists In having
eruptions or . rash. something Is
wrong, and II q consultation with
a doctor Is not possible, then one
should inquire about medicated
acne lotions, or medicated
creams.
There is q cream and q soap
which doctors are recommend
ing for mild skin irritations.
They seem to help.
The treatment consists of
washing the blemished area (this
does not apply to adolescent
acne) with the medicated soap,
rinsing and drying. Then the
puttylike cream is applied. Reg
ular use OF this cream during the
night and day, on the cleaned
skin, will relieve many minor skin
irritations.
This same cream may be used
on an ailing scalp and full di-

after 20 years Of. experience at moth
ing but that job, he says, he thinks
he'll get used to it.
His first assignment was with the
25th Infantry, with which he served
in Hawaii from 1915 to 1920. He was
sent to France from 1920 to %; and
upon his return to the u. S., was sent

Trainee Is First to Achieve
Perfect Score in Fitness Test

Fort Mcclellan, Ala = Setting a
fast pace for the Infantry Replace
ment Training Center to match,
Pvt. Lewis Thomas, Jr., of Co. D,
2nd Bn., is the first man at Fort
Mcclellan to score 100 per cent in
the Center's physical fitness test.
Pvt. Thomas. 20-year-old former
lumberjack. of Eutaw, Ala, COM
pleted less than month of muscle
conditioning grind, and went out to
the drill field to set this enviable
record:
"a pushups
300-yard run in AZ seconds
IA burpeeS in 20 seconds
75-yard pickaback run in IA sec
ondS
70-yard zigzag run in % seconds
The test, given at the end of a
training cycle to one ''cross section"
company in each battalion, sets GER
tain standards which, if attained,
entitle the performer to a 100 per
cent rating. These standards are
as follows: 34 pushupS, 300-yard
run in 45 seconds or less, II burpees
in 20 seconds, 75-yard pickaback run
in 20 seconds or less, and 70-yard
zigzag run in 80 seconds or less.
According to the Cycle, camp
newspaper, as many as 1000 men
have made the attempt to score 100
per cent, but Pvt. Thomas is the
first to make the grade. His rec
ords in the burpees, the pickaback
run, the zigZag run are the best
ever scored at the Fort, stated the
Cycle.
The physical fitness test also in
cludes a four-mile march to be
made with full field equipment in
Sc minutes. When trainees can do
this on top of all the other exer-
cises, they are considered to be we'll

in the 9th inning to give them
victory over the under-rated
827ers. The final score for
the game was 10 to 9.
Gaskin of the "Tankers" pitched
a good game, allowing but 10 hits
and holding the Sou to 2 runs u4l-
til the 9th inning. In the meantime,
his teammates had accumulated
runs for their side.
Scales, starting pitcher for Sou,
was off his stride, having to be re-
placed by Davis, in the 5th inning.
Davis, a newcomer to the Post,
worked we'll with Green, his battery
mate, to hold the 827 to more runs
forsthe 5 innings he pitched. Errors
in .fielding and throwing hampered
SOUS showing.
Aside from Pitcher Gaskin, Boee,
Jackson, Early, Frederick, Elmer,
Harden, Adams and Williamson
represented the 827. Elmer, with
a triple, homer and a single, was
the "big gun" of the 'Tankers."
BY playing almost perfect ball
against the highly-touted Williams
Field Fliers," Sunday, the Sou was
able to beat the "state champions"
by score of to 8.
Mccoy pitched excellent ball,
striking out 16 batters, and his own
workers backed him up in the
field and at the plate, "socking the
apple" when licks were needed. Luke
knocking a homer with two men on
and Young duplicating the feat
with one on, accounted for of the
runs scored. Moore, Turner and
Young each crossed the plate twice,
while Wright and Luke chalked up
single runs for the total victory
tally.
Additional players for Sou in the
weekend games were: Hinton,
Brown, Powell, Lowhorne, Richard
SON, Beasley and Johnson.
The Filters pitcher, Hyland,
scored two of their three runs be-

Nayx-Notre Dame Game.

On Saturday afternoon l had the
good fortune to see the Navy-Notre
Dame game at the Municipal Stadi-
UNI in Baltimore and although l was
pulling for the Middies to win,
looked for a close score, with per-
haps the extra point after touch
down deciding the game.
But what really happened was a
Navy victory that was far more
cne-sided than even the 32-13 score.
The story of the game is soon
told. 1t was just a case of trying to
break down solid stone wall with
loose rocks on the offense and try
ing to stop battering ram with a
picket fence on the defense.
Notre Dame never even came
close to even bending the Navy line,
but whenever Navy took the ball,
they just opened up the center of
the Irish forward wall, as if some
one had pressed a button to open an
electrically controlled gate. Their
backs needed little or no interfer-
ence in running the ball, they just
waited till that hole in the center
opened up and then ploughed
through it for first down after first
down.
To me. one of the outstanding
features of the game was the fact
that Navy was only forced to punt
three times in the entire so minutes
of play.
In the second half, Notre Dame
took to the air and while their pass
ing attack, spanked by Dansewicz's
accurate pegging, netted them their
two touchdowns. it was noticeable
that the pass receiver never got
away on any long runs after sharing
the ball. The Irish attempted 80
passes and compelled IS, but their
net gain on passes was only 1854
yards. Navy completed three out
OF nine passes for a gain of AZ yards.
The vital statistics of the game.
however, were these. Yards gained
rushing-Navy 314. Notre Dame 96.

BEHIND
HOME PLATE
Bx DOUG STEWARD

Quite a few schools have been
forced to drop football from their
athletic schedule this year, due to a
lack Of players, but the shortage of
manpower didn't stop that bunch at
st. Mary's High School.
When Father Dausch called the
boys out for practice he was only
able to put thirteen boys on the field
but they went right to work and
lined up a four-game schedule, a
schedule, by-the-way, that would
have done credit to a school three
times their size. They booked two
games with the Frederick Senecas
and one game with the Mercersburg
Junior Varsity squad and st. JOS
eph's of Martinsburg.
They played their opening game
against the Senecas last Friday af-
ternoon on the Baker Park gridiron
in Frederick and put up whale of
a fight. Trailing Is to at the end
of the half those Is youngsters came
back and held Frederick scoreless in
the second half and, just to show
that despite their lack of replace
ments they still were full of fight,
they pushed over a touchdown OF
their own in the fourth quarter, on
25-yard end run by quarterback
Martin.
Father Dausch has now got his
squad up to Is and those two extra
reserves will be big help in their
three remaining games. The squad
travels to Mercersburg tomorrow
to meet the Junior Varsity there.
They come back home for game
on the 18th with ST. Joseph's of
Martinsburg, the game being played
on the Hagerstown High School
gridiron, and then close out the sea-
son against the Frederick Senecas,
in Frederick on the 25th.
