NOTES FROM NEW IRELAND
A Combat Correspondent Jots Down A Few Items From
Green island Somewhere In The South Pacific
By SERGEANT RAY FITZPATRICK
MARINE Corps Combat Correspondentl

GREEN ISLAND, New Ireland
(Delayed) = The Seabees of the
United States and the Kiwis of New
Zealand are becoming fast friends as
they work together on this most adj
vanced Allied holding in the South
Pacific.
Hello, Yank," and Hi, Kiwi,"
have become the standard greetings,
when men of the two forces meet.
The Seabees and the New Zealand
ers spend a good part of their pre-
cious free time together, exchanging
stories and "reminiscences, compar-
ing notes about their homelands,
kidding about their respective ac-
cents and trying to learn slang ex-
pressions from one another.
New Zealanders are frequently
invited to join the Seabees at chow,
and Seabees are invariably invited
in for spot of tea'' in the after
noon
The Kiwis are responsible for the
defense of the island, while the
Seabees are making miraculous
progress on an airfield, roadways
and other installations.
Americans stationed here point
out that there were few more fit
tingly named places for them to
observe St. Patrick's Day.
Navy Seabees of Irish descent
fashioned numerous large sham
rocks from palm fronds and cut
them from cardboard painted green.
Their handiwork adorned numerous
tents.
There was no lack of greenery for
the occasion. The island, aptly
named, is veritable mass of various
hues of green. Surrounding it is the
pale green of the South Pacific. The
Seabee utility uniforms are green,
while their jungle suits are of con-
trasting light and dark green.
Marine Corps and Army detach-
ments here, just over the hill from
Rabual, also observed the Irish holi-
day. A number of New Zealand
troops of Irish ancestry did likewise.
st. Patrick's Day music was pro-
vided by New Zealand bagpiper.
For the occasion, his instrument was
regarded as a set of old Gaelic pipes.
Most of the native population of
this island was placed aboard u. S.
ships today and taken to another
island where they will be out of
danger of Jap bombings.
Many of the natives are badly in
need of medical attention At their
new temporary home, they will be
given food and medical care and
allotted land and equipment with
which to work
The natives had never travelled
on vessels as large as those used to
take them on their journey. With
childish curiosity, they inspected
the ships from bow to stern.
An audience of battle tried Ma
rines, veterans of such campaigns
as Guadalcanal, New Georgia and
Bougainville, sat down to enjoy "a
movie show several nights ago.
First on the program was an Army
training film, Baptism of Fire"
AS on all UnitedX Nations-held
islands in the South Pacific, the
mighty Jap propaganda broadcast
by Tokyo Rose" is a big favorite
with American Marines, Seabees
and Army men here.
When it's time for Tokyo Rose"
to come on, Americans gather near
the loudspeakers for the joint pur-
pose of laughing at her routine
propaganda and enjoying the ex-
cellent American records she plays.

Filled with joy, Louis inched him
self along, being ever so careful not
to loosen the net. 1t was hours
before he finally saw light and a
few minutes later he was out In
the desolate field above the witches
den
The waquitoes were insects of
the underground and couldn't stand
the fresh air. Soon every one had
perished.
Meanwhile. the three sisters at
the other end Of the tunnel waited
and waited.
What can have happened?" cried
one. You don't suppose they really
hurt him too badly, do you?"
What pity that would be-"
sighed her sister. But, he is a
hardy lad-they can't have truly
harmed him"
Still, exclaimed the third, at
is strange we have heard no sound
I was sure he would have returned
with the box long ago"
So they waited and waited and
finally they decided to go into the
tunnel to see what had happened
They were not afraid for they had
trained the waquitoes not to sting
them.
Before we go we had better take
with us our SaucepanS," suggested
one witch. And the three evil crea-
lures snatched three saucepans from
thn elIr,hnorI a{t
ing themselves in the mirror, they
wrapped their gowns tight around
themselves.
In twinkling they had slithered
through the passage and popped up
on the other side.
Louis Steps Out.
They were just in time to see
Louis take his first giant-size step
across the field. The witches were
stunned to see shoes that would
move 1000 miles in single step.
They were even more astonished
that the boy could have escaped
the angry waquitoes.
we can't let him get away"
cried one zsister. Think of our
reputation
'Of course!" agreed her sisters.
People will say the Witches of
Poldrex have lost all their evil
power!'
So each of the three sisters
climbed into saucepan and each
saucepan rose instantly into the
air and few off after Louis.
