GI's May Collect Refunds
On Unused Rail Tickets

That furlough- bound soldiers may
now obtain refunds on unused por-
tions of their railway tickets was
learned from a letter being circu-
lated by the American Red Gross.
The letter clarifies procedures for
obtaining such refunds and also
stipulates that the reduced rate
tickets are non-transferable and
that persons other than the original
purchaser may not use them.
Soldiers are charged a reduced
rate of a cent and a quarter per
mile on round trip furlough tickets
and frequently do not use the re-
turn portion.
The information that they may
collect whatever funds their unused
ticket calls for is good news to
many GIL, who rides the train
home and is able to return to camp
by another method of transporta-
ton.

Round the Mountain" In jungle
glade, he came upon five soldiers
making CT jive. All had improvised
instruments, but loudest of them all
was bull fiddle - made from an old

That is the latest example of what
a mainstay to an army in the field a
discarded oil drum can be. For the oil
drum only begins to fight for Uncle
Sam when its first mission as fuel
container is over. The examples
mount up:
In the Aleutians, empty oil drums
are used for drainage culverts, quon-
set-hut water tanks, fire barrels, tent
stoves and even dishwashers - the
chow line dunks its mess kits in
drums of steaming hot water. Flat
tened drums make roofing for dug
outs or flooring for tents. The tops
are used for STOP signs and markers
for misty Aleutian runways. A drum
can be made into a wing chair, or
a bathtub, with comfortable arm
rests. Pour the hot water in and you
think you're in the Waldorf.
