CARTER of Pasadena, California,
recently passed away. -.
Sal has nicknamed those three
sharp cats, JERRY EVANS,
SCOTT TYLER and CHARLES
BRADLEY, "THE THREE MUS
KETEERS" of the Twin Towns.
. Thanks to smiling MRS. DES-
SIZE GRESHAM who called in,
congratulating Sal on the fine
writeup E. S. gave her last week.
If Uncle Sam decides to send
home some of the boys who have
been across seas SEEM active duty,
we hope TALMADGE CAREY, JR.
will be one of the first ones home.
Heard that a fine lookin' Aus
tralian chick is mighty, mighty,
fond of Talmadge tooD HAT
TIE Light, now of Milwaukee,
Wis, was in Mpls. for a short
visit last week while en- route to
Lutsen, Mimi, to visit her par
entS. -.
SONG OF THE WEEK:
Duke Ellington's orchestra can
really swing out on that mellow
tune, "DO NOTHIN' TILL YOU
HEAR FROM ME-" Park-Your-
Carcass says that's his favorite
tune. Methinks Parky oughta add
one more line such as, 'Do Nothin'
Till You Hear From Me And When
You Do Hear We Still Won't Do
Nothin' Or Go Anywhere" :.
ORANGE BLOSSOM SNIFFERS:
Just heard that personable MI
LEE LUCKEE and A. JAMES
LEWIS of st. Paul are planning to
waltz down the aisle in the none
too-distant future. :.
TWIN TOWN TIDBITS:
A group of st. Paul gals had
quite a fine time last weekend en-
PERTAINING some of our soldiers
down at the U. S. o. Center in st.
Paul. The boys, who came from
one of the Southern camps, were
en- route to an Eastern Camp.
PVT. ROMANO JOHNSON of
Daniels Field, Ca, has been in
town on furlough visiting relatives
this past week. PFC. EDDIE
ANDERSON of Camp Ellis, Illinois,
was also in town this past week for
few days visiting his wife and
parents. JOHNNIE and
CATHERINE HARPER'S (the
former Catherine Quarterman)
baby daughter is really adorable,
isn't she? Just heard that
DOROTHY MARTIN, former St.
Paul lassie, now with the Army
WACs, recently married a fine
Eastern lad. (And what Mpls. boy
about town feels mighty blue?)
That st. Paul man who has
such a terrific reputation of bein'
one of the leading wolves about
town is liable to get "took" yet
cause one of Mpls'. smartest "wolf-
esses" is on his trail and I mean
she's hep, too. -.
IN THIS WEEKS MAILBOX:
Received an interesting letter
from ALFRED HARRIS, M. o.
M. M. &c, a former st. Paul lad.
Alfred is in the navy and is sta
toned aboard mine sweeper based
at San Pedro, California. He says
the crew is all colored except for
the officers and his department is
the engine room, which he is in full
charge of. Alfred says he still
reads this paper regularly and en-
joys SAILS column immensely.
ROBERT COOPER, another St.
Paul lad, is also stationed at the
San Pedro Base. ALVIN HARRIS
(Alfred's brother) is attending
Army Finance School at Fort Ben
jamin Harrison, Indianapolis, Indi-
ana. We wish Alfred the best of
luck in his First Class Motor Ma
chinists Exam which he will take

colored boy at the base with that
rating and we know Alfred will be
the second. Was glad to hear

NORMAN "SIR" Light, who is
down in Shreveport, Louisiana,
training men on maneuvers. Nor
man sends a fond hello to all the
