tlful pets.
You may inquire, what makes a
fish fanc1er?" This may seem a diff
ficult question to answer, but in my
case it has definite response: "Our
well-known friend, the guppie."
People who know nothing at all
about tropical fish have usually
heard of guppies. When a neighbor
gave me a pair of them, just the
sight of those brilliant little fellows
aroused my interest, and I soon be-
gan collecting many kinds of fish,
such as swordtails, mollies, head and
tail lights, and tropical catfish.
My curiosity received added stim-
ulation by a visit to the famous
Shedd Aquarium in Chicago last
summer. On display there were
many exquisite and delicate inhabi-
tants of the seas, including sharks,
giant angel fish, octopi, poisonous
sting rays and, of course, many
varieties of smaller fish.
I have now had my tank, which
holds 10 gallons, for 2 years and I
have observed the strange habits
and diseases of my pets. For in
stance, I have discovered that fish
suffer from many illnesses, such as
cancer, tuberculosis and fungus
growths. Although I have been un-
able to cure these ailments, I hope
to become more successful as I con-
tinue my investigation of tropical
fish.

building an enlarger, however,
found enlarging to be even more
enchanting than the other phases
of photography.
The cost of building this enlarger
amounted to $3.50, representing quite
a saving over a manufactured one,
which would have cost me no less
than $50. Besides economizing on
my enlarger, there is a certain feel
ing of satisfaction which comes from
working with an instrument which
you yourself have built.
Since I have been processing my
own pictures, and have learned the
construction of cameras, I have been
able to take photographs far superior
to my earlier efforts. I started last
June and have had wonderful oppor-
tunities to take snapshots since then,
as our family took trans
continental trip during July and
August, on which encountered
much Photographic material. When
school opened, I became the photog-
rapher for the little Hoya, and the
Copula, our school paper and year.
book, respectively.
The secret for all you fellows and
girls aspiring to make good snaps is
to think of everything you see in
terms of its pictorial value, to learn
as much about your camera as you
possibly can, and to have some au-
thority criticize your pictures SO you
will not make the same mistakes

Significant War Scenes by Battle
front Artists" sponsored by Chrys-
Ter Corp, which opened yesterday
at the Corcoran Gallery of Art ap-
propriately signalizes the theme OF
Memorial Day, and, at the same
time, provides an exhibition of en-
during interest. 1t has an advantage
and a disadvantage, both inherent
in the time Of its creation and dis
play. First shown lin New. York
City last February through ApriD
Is months after the war ended, it
lacks the iInmediacy which gave the
many combat art shows of 1941-45
emotional overtones.
On the other hand, 1t has the
benefit Of perspective, or reflection,
having been painted when the clam
orous incidents of actual warfare
were past, and the artists were able
to get the larger view, varying of
course, according to their individual
temperaments.
If there were only one great
painting in the collection Of is, it
would be a gratifying proportion.
Actually, there are several which
are outstanding, and the others are
technically competent records of
important events and situations.
Consequently, Chrysler Corp. can
congratulate itself on its postwar
art project.
The Burden Is Outstanding
Surprising all other paintings in
the show Is Joseph Hirsch's THE
Burden" with its inescapable i'm
plication. 1t epitomizes the primary
tragedy of war. The haggard young
soldier, his face gray with fatigue, is
bearing the cross, both literally and
f1guratively. The composition is
dynamic, with its many diagonals,
the somber color scheme adds depth,
and the actual painting is superb. 1t
is difficult to imagine any one be-
holding this work without being
deeply touched.
George Grosz' "The Juggernaut"
is a symbolic landscape Of filth and
destruction, representing in the
artists words "the futility of all
war" It seems to me that this falls
somewhat short of other war paint
ings by the same artist, which have
been shown at the Corcoran: THE
Survivor" and "The Wanderer," for
example, for a truly tragic capture
of man Is greater than any scene
without him, however desolate.
Thirteen Of the 16 paintings de-
pict specific events, divided almost
equally between the European and
Pacific war theaters. In few in
stances, they provide similar pairs,
although unintentionally. After the
Hirsch, the two outstanding paint
ings, In my opinion, are Ogden
Pleissner's Tank Breakthrough at
st. Lo" and Frede Vidar's Manila
Retaken." Both are thrilling, and
admirably painted. They have SIM
liar themes, but differ markedly in
their handling. Mr. Pleissner has a

Wasps
Prize Contribution
By Rosemary Make, 9
pnrksida School. Silver Sprina


I am the digger wasp. I am not
like other wasps at all.
One day thought I would take .
walk, SO decided to visit the potter
wasp and see how she built her
house. saw why she is called the
potter wasp. 1t Is because she makes
her house out of mud In the form
of a jug.
Then I decided to visit the sand
wasp. I thought she had a funny
house, too. When I saw her, she
was coming out of the sand. She
was busy, so I went on my way.
Then r decided my own way was
best, because I am the only tool
using insect. I pack down the earth
with small pebble which I hold
in my mouth and use as hammer.

Questions and answers:

s&uCotlU1lS d1lO hIlSWCIS.
Question from o. K. r., Washing
ton, D. c.: Can you help me locate
school which teaches interior dec
orating?"
The central office of the VA here
says there are likely to be CORES
pondence courses in that field.
Write the International Cores
pondence School, Scranton, Pa, and
tell them what you want and that
you're a veteran entitled to CT Bill
education. Or write to the District
of Columbia Board of Education,
which has q list of all schools in the
District approved to give CT Bill
training.
For schools in Maryland, or Vir-
ginia, or any State, write the State
Board of Education at the State
capital.
From Mrs. LIT, Spokane: my
son, an ex-Marine, kept his insur-
ance for three years while in the
Marines. Now that he's out he says
he doesn't need it any more. Can
I pay it for him?"
Sure you can. But at any time
he wants he can cancel his policy,
and I'm afraid there's nothing you
could do. However, can't you talk
him into understanding the value
OF National Service Life Insurance?
From CIV, Scranton: "I had
$4,000 worth Of NSLI but cashed
1t in one year after I, had con-
verted it to a 20-pay life policy.
Can now take out another 10,OO0
policy or renew the old one?"
No, not II you actually cashed
that first one In. However, If it had
just been allowed to lapse, you could
reinstate it.
From J.H.W., Jonesboro, Tenn:
rs the Emergency Maternity and
Infant Care program still In effect?"
Yes. If you were in one of the
lowest four pay grades at the time
your wife became pregnant she
should be entitled to free maternity
care. Write your State department
OF health, at your State capital, for
particulars.
From Mrs. CA, New Orleans:
my son is going to school under the
CT Bill. When his time runs out
can he complete his education with
a Government loan?"
No, not that I know of. There are
GI Bill loans, you know, but vet
eran can't get one to pay for his
education. They can only be used
for homes, farms or business. i
From Miss J.M.G., Oklahoma
City: Three years ago met AM
awful nice guy who was stationed
out here in the Army. He wrote
after he went overseas, for many
months. I've lost some of his letters
and can't remember his home ad-
dress. How can I find out what
happened to him?"
The War Department says you
should write to Headquarters, Army
Ground Cor Air) Forces, War De-
partment, Washington Is, D. C.|
Give the last service address of
your friend that you can remember,
the complete address down to his
company. They will send you a.
roster of that company if you ask
for it, and will also send home
addresses of some of the men who
were in the outfit. This might work,
and 1t might not. But it rates a try.

Pieces of Copper
Prize Contribution
By Jondo Riley, s
TT
Chevy Chose Elementary School

Once a upon a time, there lived
a poor man and his wife and two
children in their home on the side
of a mountain. The father worked
in the fields; the wife did the house
work, and the two children minded
the goats. One dark rainy night in
May, when everybody was asleep
two brownies crept through the
open window and put one copper
penny under the mans pillow and
then crept out again.
The next morning, when the wife
took up the pillow to shake 1t, she
found the penny.
"Oh. my! Where did this come
from?" she asked.
No one knew.
1t kept going that way, and at
last they became rich and lived
happily ever after.
