1 trained personnel has been and probably always will be 8 clerk. Ev- cry unit in the Army from Army headquarters down through battal- ion, company and even detachment is in need of trained clerks, Men who have had any previous practical experience or training asa clerk are needed These men are given one of two types of additional training by the Army. They are either sent to school to learn the Army system of. clerical work or they are given lon the job training" by working to- gether with an experienced clerk.
 Liberal Ratings Given
 Ratings for. clerks are liberal, re- Vealed Major Lease. Company clerks hold the rank of technician fifth grade, while chief clerks in higher headquarters become tech- nical or master sergeantS. Although 1t is doubtful whether a man could become a technical or master Ser- geant during a single three-year en- listment, the major said, man could look forward to becoming a technician fourth grade in that pe- riod.
 Other popular schools which the Army provides are radio mechanics, rnachinists, photography, airplane and engine mechanics. sheet metal workers, ordnance, supply, crypto- gfaphers, radar mechanics end oper- ators, and engineers, including Struc. tural or highway.
 Although the schools operated by the Army are staffed by expert in- structors. are completely equipped with machinery and laboratories, and provide practical as well as the- oretical experience, Major Lease em- phasized that they will only help man If he wants to learn. Any man entering the Army can become a skilled technician capable of holding any similar job in civilian life If ne applies himself diligently to the training offered.
 An Army school is unlike attend- ing 8 civilian school because the student is constantly given prac. tical experience. It is unlike learn ing a new trade in an industry be- cause the Army offers all the back ground theoretical training not or- dinarily given in a civilian industry.
 Besides the excellent training giv- en by the Army, a man is assured of good pay, comfortable quarters, medical care and recreational facil- ities, Major Lease concluded. Also upon the completion of his enlist ment, a man is eligible to attend c trade school or college under the c. I. Bill of Rights.

maining upon completion of the course. Experience in bookkeeping or typing is desirable. Men enlist ing for three years, and possibly some enlisting for two years would be given preference in being accept ed for the schooling.
 Included in the training are mili- tary correspondence and filing, typ ing, public funds, accounting, fiscal system of the War Department, pay of enlisted personnel, officers pay and allowances, and travel allow ance of War Department Personnel. Recruiting officials again explained that similar courses are given by all branches of the service. Probably the best training along this line is given by Army Finance.

course would probably have to be a two-year erlistee in order to be ac- cepted, explained Major Lease.
 Courses in automotive nainten- allce are not given only by the Air Force, explained Major Lease. Every branch of service offers that type of training because every branch of service has vehicles that must be kept running. Other excellent courses are offered by the Armored Force and by the. Quartermaster Cdrps.
 A course which will appeal to stu- dents at Wilby High School is a class in training to be a finance clerk-typist. In order to qualify for the ten-week course, Q man must be high school graduate and must have at least one year of service re-

at the back in a low line on the
neck. V or l. neckllnes are best.
Avoid square cut.
The inverted triangle face has an
extra wide forehead and cheeks
that come to a rather sharp point
at the chin.
Place rouge rather high on the
checks tapering the color far back
at the place where the cheeks begin
to narrow The mouth should be
rather full almost to the corners

A touch Of rouge on the chin will
help to tie" the lower part Of the
face with the coloring in the cheeks
and make il seem shorter at this
point.
Bring the eyebrows downward
at the sides to hug" the eyes.
An unnatural upward curve to the
hrows only tends to increase the
width from ear to ear. The hair
should be arranged softly over the
ears and a little forward on the
temples A forward movement on
the forehead creates a heart shaped
face which is unusual and interest

area to avoid creating "hollows"
since the long face Is almost always
a thin face. Blend the rouge out
as far as possible to the hairline.
The mouth should be made rather
full at the sides-almost as full as
at the center. A touch Of rouge on
the chin will help to shorten the
face but go lightly.
The eyebrows should be rather
straight to carry the eye across the
face instead of up and down. The
hair should be arranged with full
ness over the ears but keep it of the
cheeks. The use Of low bangs or
soft Curls on top without height
and partly covering the forehead
will be flattering. Avoid length in
the back. DO NOT wear Y necklines
hut use rather high necklines either
round or square. The fashionable
"bOat-neck lines" are good and
chunky necklaces are becoming.
The triangular face is broad at
the jaw and tapers Off to narrow
forehead. Your effort should be
to minimize the jaw line and in
crease the width at the forehead.
Rouge should be carried low at the
back part Of the cheeks with faint
coloring below the ear and emphasis
on the cheek bone. Rouge Is used
to shadow the face AS well as to
add color, LipStick should be APP
piled so as TO avoid following the
downward curve Of the chin. Keep
the color at the natural lip line,
rather square on the center of the
lower lip.
The eyebrows should be extended
fairly straight on the sides carry
ing the eye farther out at the mar
rowing part Of the forehead. Ar
range the hair SO as to give breadth
at the sides of the forehead by
using n low side part and keeping
the hair fairly fiat on top. Have
full swirls or curlS on the sides and
carry the fullness down to the

in New Guinea were the phono- graph, the radio and the camera. Most camps had at least one pho nograph and it always seemed to be playing. Radios were much scarcer. During the World Series in St. Louis as many as ten thou sand boys would gather from all parts of the jungle to crowd around a radio and listen to the short-wave broadcast.
 One experience in hospital in Hollandia I'll never forget. I wis ited "psych" ward, which is a tough assignment anywhere. Most of the kids in these wards were a little more nervous or more home sick than the rest. Few of those I saw were serious cases and, just as all the others, they were inter ested in baseball.
 I'd get lot of questions, some a bit on the silly side. But the one I still can't answer was asked me by colored boy.
 "Al," he said, "are all ball play CTS crazy?"
 He was looking straight at me when he said it.

 led the religious services but took charge of recreation and entertain ment and, when it was needed, were an inspiration to the men.
 The first thing you can't help noticing in Finschhaven is that every CT is in the laundry busi- ness. It was daily ritual for them to be lined up, knee-deep in one of the brooks that ran near the camps, scrubbing away at their clothes on their homemade wash boards. The dust, the mud, and the rain made every day washday
 The trouble with washing your clothes was that, with the rain, you could never get them dry. The boys taught me how to dry by things quickly-by hanging them from the side of the jeep, like a flag, as I rode along. It got my clothes dry, all right. What they forgot to tell me was that they would also pick up the dust and odor as we drove along, leaving me worse off than before.
 Mail delivery was the most pop ular day in camp. They'd always be on the lookout for the mail trucks and you could see them open their letters, some hastily and others slowly, as if they were afraid to break the spell. But it was heartbreaking to watch the kids who got no mail, and they'd console each other: "Your mail is probably so heavy, it's coming on a truck all by itself"
 After visiting a few camps, l discovered that the pin-up-girl business was nothing more than a press agents dream. There would be few pictures of stars, but most
The Nome nugget., 1946-01-23

of the pictures that hung in the huts were pictures that represent ed home. The only pin-up girl the boys got at all excited about was one of their own making. A bald headed fellow fell asleep in front of his hut one afternoon, so they painted a pin-up girl on his head.
 My activity in Finschhaven cov- cred everything from a daily radio program of fifteen minutes to in- terviews for the "Foxhole Observ- CT" and "The Guinea Pig"-"New Guinea's greatest mimeo daily"
 covered fourteen hospitals. In addition there were stage shows for the Engineers, the Air Force, the Navy and many other outfits.
 Travelling is dangerous in most parts of New Guinea. Atmospheric conditions made flying tough, but from the way these Air Force fel- lows around here do it, you'd think they were crossing the street. l still get palpitations of the liver thinking about the flight that took me from Finschhaven to Hollan- dia, with the pilot skimming not only the trees but the waves, too.
 It was in Hollandia that I saw Jap propaganda tactics for the first time. But the pamphlets they dropped as we'll as the short-wave ramblings of Tokyo Rose were treated with superb contempt by the GIs.
 In her own peculiar way, Tokyo Rose was a big source of entertain ment. The boys would sit for hours listening to her play the best American records, and many times they would have jam sessions to her swingy ones. That was meant to get the kids dejected and home sick enough to surrender, as they were asked to do, both over the air and in the elaborate throw aways.
