We've seen everything from

train. A cowboy chasing a dogie
near the railroad tracks. A box
of live, foot-long turtles on the
sidewalk in front of a San
Francisco Chinatown store. A
two-motored plane that whis-
tied along beside us briefly .
Mexican track workers shout
ing, "Cigaros! Cigaros!" as our
train creeps past. And they
scuttle and scramble in a whirl-
ing of arms and legs when the
soldiers and sailors toss some
smokes.

five minutes in the last 500
miles, not that I'm gripping, you
understand. Just watching them
is entertainment enough for
anybody. But the scrapes they
can get in and out of!
WE HAD full afternoon be-
w tween trains at Oakland.
Some of them, including one
group Of three, took the ferry TO
San Francisco and happily went
broke on the far side of the
city. They got on a street car
and had ridden mile before the
conductorette got around to
them. Then they engaged the
girl in an argument, trying to
explain how vital it was that
they get back on time. The girl
didn't convince very easily, but
by that time they had reached
the ferry so they demurred no
longer at being put off the car.
I'm not quite clear as to how
they got aboard the ferry with
out tickets, but l understand
that the general method was the
same. Anyway, they caught the
train all right, aided somewhat
by the fact that the ]. &. in
charge had told them the train
would leave at z o'clock.
Actually it wasn't scheduled to
leave till $40, and it was
little later than that when we
got under way.
Yeah, these sailors are good
company, if you don't let 'em
get you down, and already I'm
learning to respond when the
boys in dungarees or undress
blues ask what time va got,
mate?" or How soon'S chow,
Mac?"
At first they called me SOL
der" but evidently decided that
it wasn't quite proper or some
thing. So they lapsed into
standard navy argot. Why,
they've even got me calling the
Shore Patrol "a boatswain's S
mste-"Boats." How'm I doin' /,

IL the Jap war machine can be
seen in the fact that east-west
mainline railroa d s operate
through the city, as does the
powerful electric system which
carried the voltage necessary TO
operate the MitSubiShi airplane

There is no doubt that these
installations were either dam

the latest B-29 raid.

~ of breath. II is uncomfort-
able because Of the labOred,
difficult breathing. DySpnea is
often the earliest sign of
damaged heart. 1t causes more
discomfort than all Of the other
heart symptoms together.
According 10 Doctor Tinsley
y. Harrison Of Dallas, the con-
tInuauon Of dyspnea adds fur
ther strain 10 an already dam
aged heart and so intensities
tho condition which caused the
Shortness Of breath in the first
place.
There are different kinds OF
dyspnea. For example, there is
the shortness Of breath. which
comes only after exercise. II
always occurs when the heart IS
failing and means that the re-
serve strength of the heart IS
lacking. Orthopnea is short
ness of breath which comes when
a person is lying down. Dysp-
nea occurring In the evening IS
the type in which the difficulty

creases during the day and may
prevent sleep.
CARDIAC asthma is a kind Of

ours IN heart disease due TO
high blood pressure and hard
cned arteries. The attacks of
shortness OF breath come at
night, and there usually is a
\lection Of fluid IN the lung
ues. OF course, If the heart
disease is severe enough, the
shortneSs Of breath may lower
the pressure within the chest.
This may further increase the
congestion in the lungs and
bring on pulmonary edema or
fluid in the lungs.
The treatment Of such cases
consists in the proper adminiS-
tration Of morphine by the
doctor. Giving the morphine
will lower the breathing rate
and bring rest TO the heart
