Lady, you have the wrong angle. -

Christmas tree. There'd be no tree
this year. 1t was worse than childish
of Harv to want one. She wouldn't
have it. A package had been sent
to Harvey Jr. overseas in October,
but there'd be no Christmasing at
home.
Wicked, horrible, thought Mrs.
Weston, that people are going
through all the old motions of a
Merry Christmas. No one has right
to be merry.
"You looked super last night, -
said the man. "You are super,
honey. You're so beautiful" Mrs.
Weston turned slightly and caught a
glimpse of a fiat pretty face sur
rounded by blond curls. "You rate
orchids, honey" the man went on,
"and you're goin' to have them.
The constant ache in Mrs. Weston S
heart sharpened to stab. For such
fools her Harvey was risking his
life. Another block of their chatter
and Mrs. Weston would say, "The
money squandered on orchids, young
man, would buy good many war
stamps" or, "This is no occasion
for whoopee."
"Jack thinks the Army is going to
get him this time" 1t was the girl
speaking. "And is he scared!"
The woman next her got off and
another squeezed in. Certainly 60
ing to be big Christmas" observed
the newcomer cheerfully. "Were
you downtown Saturday? Worst jam
l ever saw"
Il was not" Mrs. Weston felt
compelled to explain. II am going
to town now only to select a wreath
for my mothers grave"
Behind her the young people were
still shrilling about Jack and the
Army. Tell him we'll give him a
farewell party. Tell him if he gets
shot he'll have pretty nurse" The
man was chortling. Let's get off
next corner, beautiful, You can buy
me drink
Liquor, thought Mrs. Weston furi-
ously. That explained their inces-
SAINT giggling over nothing. She
raised her voice. 81 don't see how
people can. think about Christmas.
How they can drink and laugh and
waste money on silly things. Life is
so terrible" her voice broke. Heav-
ems, people were staring! "My SON
somewhere in the Pacific" she
added hurriedly in a low voice. ct
I'm thinking of him"
She felt hand on her shoulder.
Lady you have the wrong angle"
The man behind her leaned forward.
Her eyes met compassionate blue
ones in face curiously pale. ''It
don't help your boy any for you to
have no Christmas. Be as merry
as you can. Like as not he'll be
back, fit as fiddle-like me-" He
lurched to his feet.
Something caught in Mrs. Weston's
throat. He was limping to the door.
The car jolted to a stop and the girl
thrust steady little hand I'm
der his arm. Drunk, thought Mrs.
Weston, drunk with the joy of be-
ing alive. She sprang to her feet.
without apology pushed through the
crowd. ''Wait!" But they were
getting off.
She was halted by the crowds on
the sidewalk. Standing ON tiptoe
she saw the couple turn in at the
dairy bar. A drink. They'd laugh
and make love over an ice cream
soda. Merry Christmas, soldier"
she whispered. BE as merry as you
can"
Misty-eyed, she walked to the cor
ner trimmed with Christmas trees.
"A small tree," choked Mrs
Weston. She wiped her eyes and
picked one up, testing its weight. 1T
must be strong, she told the ven
dor firmly. Strong enough to hold
up a good sized rubber dog. and

UNDECLARED CIVIL WAR
IN CHINA

New York (Soundphoto) Shan
tung province seaport Of Tsingtao
took a place in forefront in unde-
clared civil war in China when
thousands of Generalissimo Chang
troops were landed from American
transports. Occupied since Oct. IL
by u S. Marines, the possibility Of
involvement in clashes mas been
heightened by fact that Chinese
Communists forces ring the port by
land. Whether the Marines will
be pulled out of area dominated
largely by Communist troops re-
mains to be seen as other landings

of cancer lies in the DR.. Moseley
direction of providing answers to
the following questions.
/. What causes and controls the
growth of the normal living body
cell?
2. why does body cell growth
get out of control to form cancer?
3. What are The differences be-
tween the normal and the lancer
body cell?
4. What natural defenses does
the human body have against cam
cancer: how can they be strength
ened?
5. What influence does diet have
on cancer?
6. What can be done to help the
effectiveness of x-rays n radium
These questions and others will
form the subjects of new investi-
cations. Since cancer is really
the uncomfortable growth Of living
cells within the body, the whole
subject of the growth of living
things will be thoroughly studied.
During the war years. important
scientific problems were solved by
research teamwork in many differ
ent fields. Scientists attacked the
same problem from different angl-
es. The results of these investiga-
tions were then tied together and
out Of them came the great devel-
opments of wartime science. This
scientific teamwork proved very
successful. Therefore. the research
committee started the cancer pro-
gram by putting its confidence i'll
the same kind Of teamwork. In
this way, the methods employed in
the development of the atomic
bomb will be applied in the war a.
gainst mans greatest enemy-can-
Ger.
The tremendous advances in all
sciences during the war years have
re-awakened the world. to the great
possibilities of modern science.
Governments throughout the world
are preparing to hire scientists in
vast new research programs. Chief
among the subjects to be lnVeStlSa-
ted is cancer.
The National Research Council,
chief scientific advisor of Govern
ment has joined with the Americ-
an Cancer Society in the organic
alton of a national, ~peace-time at
tack on cancer. A half million dol
lars is being given by the Ameri-
can Cancer Society for the first
F, step in this great cancer research
program. This money will be TAX

brothers told on me for smoking
but they didn't tell on my sister
who smoked also. Now I am think
ing about running away. Shall /

Ans: The mere fact hat you are

children in the family to look up to
you and consider everything that
you do as an example. If you
smoke, they will want t smoke
what ever you do, they. childlike.

report your actions, they do so to
gain the consent of your parents

not the thing for you to do. AS
