will be married here December 9.
Miss Nanette Tuchband says she
thinks the Army Transportation
Corps deserves a lot of credit for
her coming nuptials.
Less than week ago, Miss Tuch-

Corpl. Harry Kritt of 228 Hamilton

from the Pacific. He didn't know
where she was and she didn't know

They arranged long ago to meet

The biggest thrill I've had in

car out of the garage and asked the
attendant to fill 'er up"
Gasoline rationing did one good
thing for me. 1t made me realize
what fun it is to drive with the
family and just enjoy the rich eolors
of the Autumn countryside.

Wilder points up my own reaction
to this first post-rationing ride. It's

many of us to appreciate simple
things-the unexpected thoughtful
ness of neighbor. the discovery
that food picked from your own
garden is twice as delicious because
of the work you yourself put into
