By the Way

"Just kindergarten stuff" said
Mrs. Joseph Pagan when we COM
plimented her on the beautiful
Christmas tree at the USO Club
at 1911 H street, for which she
herself had made all the decora-
tions with the exception OF the
electric lights and the gay paper
decorations for the New Year eve
party. Well, it looked a far cry
from the kindergarten stuff we
remembered having done in our
youth. 1t was all just about the
most professional looking trim
ming that you'd find anywhere,
and don't think that the hun
dreds of servicemen and girls
who saw it and enjoyed the holi-
day parties didn't think so, too.
Mrs. Fagan is the wife of
lieutenant in the Regular Navy,
now on duty in Washington. Al
though the Fagans have lived
pretty much all over the world in
their Navy career - for many
years in the Orient-this is their
first duty in the Nations Capital.
A duty which has already lasted
five years. They have a small
apartment which Mrs. Pagan
cares for herself, and since she
has always liked doing things
with her hands and has quite an
artistic fair she volunteered to
the USO as a sort of doer of odd
jobs. Well, it seems there were
plenty, especially during the holi-
day season when decorations ran
out all over town and tree orna-
ments weren't to be had any,
where. Mrs. Pagan got to work
on that Christmas tree and she
made use of every odd box or bit
OF tinsel or old wrapping or
bright colored paper and ribbon
that she could lay her hands on.
She made the most beautiful little
scenes out of lily cups-pasting
bright colored papers and stars
on them for decoration and tying
little silver bells to them with bits
OF bright ribbons. She used old
nail polish boxes, embellished
with gay stars and Santa Claus
faces to make pretty ornaments
old ribbon cartons that made
spinning wheels, festoons of
wooden beads and a paper dolly
which made lovely halo for a
paper angel at the top of the tree.
When it isn't Christmas at the
USO Mrs. Fagan still finds plenty
to do for the young servicemen
and women, who have come to
feel completely at home at 1911
H street.
Since the war began she has
done volunteer work for the Red
Cross and for civilian defense
but that was Office work and she
feels that dealing directly with
the servicemen, as she is now. Is
almost more fun than any other
war work she has ever done.

Political Border States
MavDecide Next Election

WASHINGTON. Oct. II -R-
The five political border states
may decide the coming election. In
the opinion of Simon Michelet'
Washington attorney and longtime
head of the National get-out-the-
vote club.
1T can be said convincingly that
as 60 the five border states SO
goes the presidential election,
Michelet said today in a state,
ment Analysing trends since 1926
in Kentucky, Maryland, Missouri
Oklahoma and West Virginia.
sDisagreeing with those who con
tend New York and the Pacific
coast states will decide the issue
in November" he recalled n
four of the five border states voted
Republican in 1920 and 1924 and
all five in 1928. In each of these
wears the COP presidential candl'
date won. In the past three presl-
dental elections all five voted 1o1
President Roosevelt. .o
But since the 'off-year' 1889
there has been a marked drift OF
the election vote in each OF the five
states" Michelet continued. This
is shown in all election tests-the
vote for governor, for U. S. Sena'
tor, for member of the U. 5. House
of Representatives.
'In 1898, the democrats IN the
border states had all five COVER

nors, all 10 u. S. Senators, and all
but three members of the House of
Representatives from the five
states. Six years pass.
I'm 1914. the Republicans hold
the chair of governor in two
states, Kentucky and Missouri;
two U. S. senators, from Oklahoma
and West Virginia; and 16 mem
bers of the House-a net gain OF
two governors, two U. S. Senators,
and 10 members of the House."
Michelet, after recalling that the
Democratic plurality in the five
states dropped from an aggregate
of 1929, 1852 in 1882 to 599,976 in
1910, while the Republican vote
rose from 1,662,51 to 2,272, 223,
said:
'"They may not 60 back to their
Republican affiliations of 1920,
1924, and 1923, but they have de-
parted from their 1926 political
records SO far that they now rank
with New York, Pennsylvania and
the Pacific states as one of the
main fighting grounds of 1914. "
