couple Of tablespoons Of minced

Enough boiling water to cover went
into the pan. the lid was put on

water didn't boil away entirely.
When the birds were done they

Curacao, the juice of one orange and

With the guineas went tangerine

them of in a hot oven. About 10
minutes later we lowered the heat
and let the guineas proceed mod

and little salt.
When the guineas were nice and
tender, We took them out of the oven
and separated them in pieces as
you would a frying chicken. These
we returned to the baking pan.
Then we Drowned couple of sliced
onions to a golden brown in butter
and added IL cups Of cream to the
broth in which the birds were
cooked, putting all in a pan on top
OF the stove.
Into the mixture went a cupful of
canned tomatoes, some basil, 4

the contents Of small can of mush-

cayenne, etc. This was brought to
boiling, being stirred all the time.
When ready, the mixture was poured
over the pieces of guinea in the
baking pan and all set to simmer
ing in a medium oven until the
meat was almost ready to fall from
the bones. The sauce should be
almost the consistency Of the cream
gravy one serves with fried chicken.
These guineas were deliciously
moist and tender and needed no
further dressing up," so we served
them with tiny new potatoes boiled
in their jackets and a crisp green
salad on the side.

are adaptable to use in a salad in
this way:
Stone the cherries, sprinkle CO.

Add half the amount of water

has come out of the cherries by
soaking them in sugar and flavor

Allow to set-chill-cool, and pour
over cherries and serve with may

marshmallows may be cut into
pieces with scissors and added to

II maraSchino are used instead of
bing cherries the full amount of

Serve with hot, crisp salty waters.

the wall was about 70 by $50
feet.
There was a screened slot
near the top of the door for
the guard to peer at us. At the
bottom was a tiny door about
six inches square through which
our food was showed.
We were supposed to get a
half hours exercise each morn
ing from 1890 until IL, but If it
was raining or If the guards
didn't feel like it we didn't get
even this brief chance at lib
erty.
OF COURSE, we got to know
" our guards pretty well, but
they never could understand us.
A Japanese guard takes il as
his right to strike prisoners
whenever the whim seizes him.
These guards would beat ma
tives-Chinese or other Japa-
nese-with their fists and the
natives would not resist. though
they would scream until il
would turn your blood cold.
But we would resist and the
guards couldn't understand why.
Our attitude baffled them.
Sometimes they would threaten
us with their swords and we'd
fall into a fighting crouch and
beckon them to come on. Then
they'd step back, spout Japa-
nese at us and shake their
heads.
A favorite expression of their.
was:
American. kokOro vance," or
at least that's what IL sounded
like, we learned that IL meant
"American's heart Is no good"
Often they would get angry
enough to strike us, but they
didn't know how to use their
fists and their blows didn't hurt
much.
But they really got sore at
George Barr one day. 1t was
terribly cold that day and there
was snow on the ground, but we
were let out for exercise and
we had been cooped up so long
that we decided to jog-trot
around the small exercise yard.
The Japanese had given us
slippers to wear and these Slip
perS kept coming off as well we
ran. So, even though il was cold
and snow was on the ground
we removed the slippers and
ran in our bare feet.
When il was time to go back
to our cells the guards motioned
us to wash our feet in the snow.
George was leading us that day
and he ignored the order.
LIE pointed to a faucet inside
IL the prison and started to-
ward it. One guard seized him
and tried to push him back, but
George gave him the elbow. All
of us followed George.
The guards were infuriated.
They were jabbering and
screaming at George, but he
ignored them. However, they
wouldn't let him wash his feet
at the faucet, though they per-
mitted us to do so.
Then three or four took
Detroit evening times., 1945-09-25

George outside again and started
to work over him. But George
wouldn't take il.
He ducked and lodged and
slugged a couple of them and
ran back into the prison. He
was shouting for the captain
of the guards and so were the
rest of us.
Then the guards forced us
back into our cells and tried to
corner George in the corridor
outside. We could watch through
the slot in the door. We shouted
encouragement to George and
he proceeded TO give the Japs
a boxing lesson.
OF course, it was an uneven
contest-one thin, undernour-
ished American against seven or
eight husky Jap guards-and
eventually one of them closed in
and tripped George.
LIE BEGAN to grind his knee
II in Georges chest, bat
George was so angry by that
time that he found strength he
didn't know he had and he got
hold of a pocket in this guards
pants and ripped the pants right
off him.
Apparently this was a terrible
disgrace for the guard. They
quit beating George then and
] supposed they would have
killed him in a few seconds, but
just then the captain of the
guards came on the run.
He ordered George put back
in his cell and then he con-
ferred with the guards. He gave
an order and in a few minutes
about 80 other guards came in
and the whole gang marched
into Georges cell and took him
away.
They took him back TO the
exercise yard and laced him
into a straight jacket and tossed
him in the snow.
A FTER 80 minutes, the Japs
"A loosened the laces and let
him breathe for a minute or
two, then they laced him up
again for another half hour.
They had to carry him back to
his cell.
