hours for a stretch. At noon we
opened K. rations. 1t was bitter
cold.
HAVE DOG MASCOT
Enlisted men had brought along
q Wire-haired terrier which be-
longed to one Of the sergeantS. We
couldn't have an invasion without
a few dogs along At the rest halts
the terrier would get out in the
fields to play and chase rocks with
never any worry. 1t seemed Won
derful to be cog.
The English roads had been al
most cleared of normal traffic. Brit
ish civil and army police were at
every crossing. AS we neared the
embarkation point people along the
roads stood at their doors and win
dowS and smiled bon voyage to us.
Happy children gave us the Ameri-
can OK. sign-thumb and fore
finger in a circle One boy smilingly
pointed a stick at us like a gun, and
one of the soldiers pointed his rifle
back and asked us with a grin:
Shall l let him have it?"
One little girl, thinking the Lord
knows what, made a nasty face at
US.
Along toward evening we reached
our ship. 1t was an LIST. and it
was already nearly loaded with
trucks and armored cars and SOL

NORMANDY BEACHHEAD, by
Wireless On our first morning al
ter leaving London the army gave
us assault correspondents a semi
final set of instructions and sent us
off in jeeps in separate groups, each
group to be divic ed up later until
we we're all separated.
| We still weren't given any details
of the coming invasion. We still
didn't know where we were to go
aboard ship, or what units we should
be with.
AS each batch left, the oldSters
among us would shake hanCS. And
because we weren't feeling very
brilliant, almost our only words to
each other were, Take it easy"
The following morning, at another
camp, 1 was called at am. All
around me officers were cuSSing
and getting up. This was the head
quarters of a certain outfit, and
they we're moving out in motor
convoy at dawn.
IN BATTLE GARB
For months these officers had
been living a civilized existence,
with good beds, good food, dress-up
uniforms, polished desks and a
normal social existence. But now
once again they were in battle
clothes. They wore steel helmets
and combat boots, an6 many carried
,>ookC on their hacks
They joked in the sleepy pre-
dawn darkness. One said to an
other:
What are you dressed up for.
A masquerade"
Everybody was overloaded with
gear. One officer said:
1.-The Germans will have to come
to us. We can never get to them
with all this load"
This most-repeated question, ask
ed jokingly, was:
rs your trip necessary"
These men had spent months
helping to plan this gigantic inVa-
sion. They were relieved to finish
the weary routine of paper work at
last, and glad to start putting their
plans into action. If they had any
personal concern about themselves
they didn't show it.
I rode with the convoy COM
mander, who was an old friend. we
were in an open jeep. 1t was just
starting to get daylight when we
pulled out. And just as we left IL
began raining-that 6ismal, cold,
cruel rain that England is so cap
able Of. 1t rained like that year
and half ago when we left Tor
Africa.

quently heard claims that fewer
birds were taken this fall.
According to the conservation de-
partment, total pheasant kill on the
9,000-acre Prairie farm between
Chesaning and Saginaw was exceed
ed only by the kill Of 1941, when
hunting pressure was IS per cent
greater. The total kill on the 1892
acre Rose Lake wildlife experiment
station tract near Lansing was
slightly greater than in 1913.
Hunters success on the Prairie
farm, as measured by birds per
hunter day CAD was relatively high,
only slightly less than in 1913 when
hunting pressure was about two
thirds as great. The pheasant kill
per each 100 acres on the Rose Lake
tract was 81 for 1914, Go for 1943.
Hunters took 1,451 birds on the
Prairie farm, 1913 at Rose Lake, dur
ing the recent season.

This rink will be equipped with
side boards, regulation nets and spe-
cial lighting. Also to some of the
players, hats off. These kids are all
going to pitch in and help Wagner
in building the rink. At present
two teams from Wyandotte are en-
tered. The Department will contact
Trenton, Ecorse, River Rouge,
Lincoln Park and other down river
towns to form a regular league.
The City Basketball League is still

Milk-the Versatile Food

Over and over again I hear peo- pie say, T just can't drink milk!' We'll, why worry about that? You can EAT milk as well as drink it and really it doesn't matter as long as you get the milk you need. Yes. you need milk whether you are Q child or an adult. However, adults need only half as much or one pint daily as compared to that of one quart for children.
 There are many milk dishes such as cream soups, milk buildings, creamed vegetables and ice creams. Consider yourself getting approXi- mately one glass of milk in two or three average servings of milk dish es. Milk may be used i'll place of water in making breads, cooking cereals and making gravieS. So It is easy to provide milk for people who dislike drinking 1t.
 Cheese is another way of eating milk as far as protein and calcium value received is concerned. Pro- tein, as you know, builds muscle for children and rebuilds what adults wear down. Calcium is the neces-

Hunting for sugar saving items that are sweet-tooth satisfiers is an every day job for 1944 homemakers, but the hunt can stop right here for today. Spread crisp soda crackers with a simple frosting, bake short time in the oven, and presto - there's a favorite of many long years-MARGUERTTES.
 Marguerites are so easy to make that the children can do it them selves (and they love it). They also have the benefit of being sugar. stretcherS de luxe They're ideal for dessert and they go perfectly with milk, tea or coffee for a youngsters or grownups' mid-meal snack. With crackers as base, each tasty mouthful is packed with concentrat- ed energy that is needed to keep the step brisk and the spirits high on active days.

 ton which can be cured by home remedies.
 Garments that are too small are constant source of discomfort and irritation. They may cause a child to be fidgety, fretful and quar- relsome, without his being aware of what the trouble is. More serious still, they may interfere with nor nal body growth and development, or result in permanent physical defect.
 RISK PERMANENT INJURY
 In the early years of the childs life his bones and muscles are soft and undeveloped. They are easily strained, or pulled out of line by the continued pressure or pull of badly fitting garment. A coat or dress that is too tight may cause round shoulders and lead to per- manent poor posture. Shoes or stockings that are too short cramp the bones of the feet, strain foot and leg muscles, and throw the body off balance. A shoe that is run over in the heel has the same effect.
 The rationing of shoes and the prevailing high prices of clothing may cause real hardship to a child unless parents realize the importance of providing clothing that will comfortably accommo- date his rapidly growing body. It is well to remember that mothers last years hat won't hurt anything but her pride, but Sonny's last years shoes may cripple him for life.

sary mineral for building and main- taining strong bones and teeth. AL so is is involved in the clotting Of blood and and in nerve control. We have a difficult time to get enough calcium unless we use milk. You couldn't possibly eat 31s pounds. carrots or 19 eggs or IA oranges of B 1-2 potatoes instead of using one pint of milk. The impractical- ness of those amounts of food Is very evident.
 But milk contains many other necessary food nutrients. It Is an excellent source of riboflavin - one of the B vitamins-which is neces- sary for young and old. Growth, good eyesight, and healthy skin need riboflavin. Also milk furnishes a good share of the other vitamins, especially vitamin A and thiamine Because of its vitamin, mineral and protein content lit is protective food and helps the body grow and build resistance to disease.
 With all these nutritive eSSen- tials 1t is easy to understand why milk does more for you than any other food.

travagant compliments.
 And she explains that tempta- tions have increased even more for the teen age girls in England than in America.
 She ends her article with: ''There is increased promiscuity among young people. It is a prob lem we are trying to tackle.
 But the increase has occurred in every war when there has been an expeditionary force in an al- lied country and home life has been disrupted and discipline of young people relaxed"
 If the writer thinks that kind of article is going to ease the minds of American women who are in love with men stationed in Eng land, she just doesn't know Amer ican women.
 THEY'LL WORRY MORE
 All that a discussion like that will serve to do is make Ameri- can women more worried than ever about their men-beset by girls who find them terribly romantic" and by more abandoned corps of Vic- tory girls than we have here in America.
 No, that article isn't going to do much to help the morale of American women.
 What they like to hear is the kind of reassuring comment that OSa Johnson gave the women whose men are in the Solomon Islands.
 She said: "The women there are ugly, dirty and smelly. There are no Dorothy Lamours."
 If an authority on the women of country can't be that reassur- ing, he might as well keep still, so far as American women are concerned. Anything less than that jus tstarts them worrying and won- dering.
