Dorothy Dix Says

people get 50 on our nerves as those
who just make us tired. In especial,
We could overlook few crimes in
our mates easier than we do their
being repeaters who harp perpetu-
ally on the same thing, or who sit
up In = frozen silence when we tell
them bit of startling news, or who
simply grunt when we try to chirk
them up with a funny story.
All Of which suggests that among
the chief duties of husbands and
wives is to keep their mates enter
tanned. Certainly it is their one
best bet If they desire to retain their
affections and keep them glad that
they married them, for when bore
dom takes up its abode on the
hearthstone, love flies out of the
window.
So my earnest advice to all bridal
couples is to provide themselves
with good line to feed to their
mates when the love talk passes out
Every young wife should study ur
on her husbands business and take
a genuine heart interest in all of his
plans and ambitions and be able te
talk shop with him, for that is q
subject Of which no man ever tires
And every young husband shoulc
bring home to his wife budget o1
the news he has collected during the
day and the good stories he ha.
heard.
It isn't enough for men and WON.
en- to be good husbands and wives
They have to be good companion,
as well if they want to make theil
marriages successes. To do. thai
they have to make as much con.
scious effort to be interesting ane
amusing as they would If they wer.
attempting to make good irnpres.
sion on q stranger.
So, husbands and wives, watch
your step, and when you see Johr
or Maria getting that patient, tiree
look, per. up your technique. Low
can be bored to death quicker thar
any other way.

The chief thing that is the matter
with domesticity is boredom. It. is
what causes husbands to philander,
and wives to nag, and children to
take to the streets and that makes
us add subconsciously "and thank
heaven for it" when we sing, There
Is No Place Like Home"
Boredom Is the explanation of
why SO many marriages are failures.
Why does the average married
couple spend their evenings yawn-
ing in each others faces? Isn't 1t
because they are fed up to the teeth
on each others society and are
bored to extinction? Why do hus-
bands and wives indulge in their
daily spat? Isn't 1t an instructive
effort to infuse little pep into the
deadly dull daily routine? What
makes children want to get away
from their comfortable homes and
good, kind parents as soon as they
can stand on their own feet? Ism,
it because they are surfeited with
the drabness. of family life and want
to get out into the world where
things are happening?
Isn't all Of this swapping Of hus.

VERSES OF HYMN;

From Mrs. G. P. B.,

For Miss A. M. W., Washington
who wanted to find the words and
music to the old hymn Ring Out
the Harbor Bells of Heaven" would
suggest she hunt in an old second
hand book store. The hymn Is in
the old l, 2, 8. 4, Gospel hymn book
and the first verse runs:
This life is like a stormy sea.
While on the windward and the lea,
Hang heavy clouds Of unbelief.

And bids the trembling souls rejoice.

Also wish to say something re-
garding the use of huckleberries as
some have asked for. They may be
used in muffins. cup cakes, cottage
pudding as well as canned and In
pies. OF course in pie tablespoon
or two of lemon Juice is an addition
for they are mild berry. Are de-

Jops Retreat
SwiftIyin
s. &. Asia
BY PRESTON GROVER

NEW DELHI, July 10--(F-
japanese forces are withdrawing
so rapidly from their Southern
Asia sphere that a survey from
this vantage point suggests that
a hard-pressed Allied campaign
during the coming fall and win
ter would recover the entire area
Already the japanese appear
to have conceded the loss of this
area by allowing the closing OF
the Hengyang corridor in China
through which garri ons in
French ndo-China could have
escaped. In Burma, scattered Jap
enese are fighting their way
eastward, evidently trying to es-
cape into Thailand.
Borneo is now hotly attacked
by Australians and Americans.
Admiral Lord Louis Mountbat-
tens Southeast Asia command
has been assigned the task of
reconquering Sumatra and NAL
ava and Singapore at the tip OF
the peninsula.
The Japanese withdrawal ut
the moment is extending over a
far greater area than the German
retreat into the central European
bastion and means that perhaps
within six months vast areas
long under Japanese domination
may have an opportunity to be-
gin a return to normalcy."
The whole aim of the japanese
Asiatic campaign seems directed
toward concentrating their major
forces in the area north of the
Shanghai -Hankow line. Bot h
these cities are certainly includ-
ed in the defense area, but south
ern China, save for the Canton
Hongkong area, evidently al
ready is being evacuated.
While Hongkong and Shang-
hal remain in Japanese hands
their defensive positions are still
strong, since there are no major
ports along the China coast in
between.
1t is estimated $4,000 Japan
ese soldiers-out of an original
tough force of more than 100000
remain in Burma, but they are
withdrawing in as orderly FASH
ION as possible in the direction CT
Thailand.
Most of the enemy troops In
Burma are classed as : service
troops and not as first quality
combat troops.
Japanese forces throughout,
however, are apparently we'll
supplied with equipment and am
munition from stockpiles accum-
ulated in three years of occupa-
ton, during which food supplies
were taken from the country.

The case of the twice-paid-for

AS he pocketed a check for

of relief. The matter had kept

when-like a bolt from the blue
he had learned that the lots
on each side of his home had
been sold out from under him
despite the fact that he had me-
ticulously paid all taxes since
acquiring the property in 1910.
NO WARNING

The F4U-4 already has been
in action, and the first japanese
pilot who ever saw one lived
only two minutes thereafter. Ma
rine Lieutenant Douglas M. West
of Excelsior, Mimi, flying with
a group of the new planes over
the Japanese home islands, saw
the enemy pilot first, dived or
him from out of the clouds anc
watched him crash = the ocean
after firing only 100 rounds
from his Wing guns.
The big change in the F4U-4
is the use of the pratt & Whit.
ney Double Wasp 28OO-C engine
for its power plant, the Navy
said. This gives it its speed of al
least 425 miles an hour, its abil-
ity to climb almost 1000 feet a
minute faster than the F4U-1
and ceiling high enough to
give it an advantage over high
flying, land based japanese
planes.
The engine is rated for 2,1OO
horsepower, and this can be in
creased in emergencies by wa.
ter injection.

literally "cheWs holes in the

Wor.Rovosed Europe Awaits
Allied Policy Regulations

/ American methods are too re-
pressive.
If the political complexion Of
Germany were the only one in
volved, the task would be easier.
But in reaching a tripartite
agreement, the western Allies
must take into consideration
this fact:
Communism is making a drive
for power in every country of
Europe. You see it strongly in
evidence in France. The Belgian
throne is tottering. The Balkans
are in volcanic upheaval and the
Likelihood is that the crowns of
Greece, Yugoslavia and Bulgaria
will find their place in muse
ums. Poland, Roumania, Czech
Oslovakia and Finland have
formed governments satisfactory
to Moscow.
All of this naturally is pleas
ing to Russia. Presumably it isn't
so pleasing to Britain who can't
but dislike to see thrones on the
continent disappearing, especial
ly those of Greece, Belgium and
Yugoslavia.
However, facts are facts and
must be faced as such by the
Big Three in Berlin. So far as
one can see now, any politica!
agreement will have to be along
the lines of permitting the vari-
Gus peoples work out their own
salvation (barring such isms as
Nazis and Fascism) without pres
sure from the great power.
Skeptics, of course, will raise
an eyebrow and remark that it
would be naive to expect such
an arrangement to work-that
influence will be used. Perhaps
SO, but 1t may be the only prac-
tical plan to follow.

The forthcoming conference of
the Big Three in Berlin-for
which President Truman already
has departed-can't begin day
too soon, because the affairs of
she'll shocked Europe are in such
state as to demand the quick at
tention of these ranking police
men of world peace.
Maybe it's putting the cart
before the horse to state the case
that way. AS a matter OF fact,
II looks as though the first task
OF the trio must be to put their
own house in order before at
tempting to purge a psychoneu-
rotic continent of its ills.
Specifically, the ISOLATION on
critical problems are awaiting
the formation of common polio
les by the Big Three. The biggest
task of the conference will be
to iron out differences OF view
point so that these common poll
cies can be established.
We have concrete cases OF d.
verpent views between the Rus
sians-on-the one hand, and the
Anglo-American Allies, on the
other. in the issue of supplying
food and fuel for Berlin and In
the method of dealing with the
German populace. And there are
other equally important lnstan-
ces.
Now there's nothing surprising
In all this, for it long has been
IN the cards, although it certain
IL isn't something to be shrugged
away lightly. The last meeting
of the Big Three was before Ger
many capituIated, and then there
was unity of policy in the COM
mon objective Of beating the
boche. However, as this column
frequently pointed out, differen-
ces were bound to arise as soon
rs the fighting stopped and the
political cavalcade began.
One of the first things the
Big Three will have to do, or so
