New Hearing Aid
Battery Charger
Cuts Hearing Costs

The new Mercury battery de-
vised for the armed services, and
constantly improved during the
last four years, is now safe to
charge. The RM 1 is the small
est battery ever made for a
hearing aid, being less than a
thimble in size and the charger
cuts the cost of operation to a
new low. The Mercury battery
differs from the carbon type
battery by giving a full level
tone from the time you start
using it, until it is finished. 1t
can be charged from 2 to s
times. RAY FARNELL & AS
SOCIATES, w. 1886 Sprague

Alienation Of Affections
Wrong, Even in Dog Case

NEWPORT NEWS, VA.-Alien-
alton of affections, even when it's
only puppy love. won't be tolerat-
ed here, the court said.
That was the ruling Of Police
Judge John Massey when he found
himself confronted with a new YER
sion Of the old eternal triangle"
The defendant, Lee Miller, was
charged with cursing and abusing.
His was Thessalonia Smith.
Miller denied any back room
language. Instead, he charged that
Smith had petted and fed his dog
so much that he just didn't like it
and told Smith so.
The judge observed:
"It looks like the main charge
should be alienation of affections
of a dog, and I've never heard of
it before"
Then he ordered:
Miller to pay a $40 fine for in
correct language.
Smith to ignore Miller's pups
advances and, above all, to stop
feeding it.

heroism Held Inherent
In Entire Human Race

PITTSBURGH. - According to a
declaration by a hero-recognizing
agency, which preferred to remain
anonymous, heroism is an ''inher-
ent trait in the human race"
1t was commended that "heroism is
prompted by what happens on the
spur Of the moment and what the
man has in him.
But the basic characteristic Of
human nature itself is to try to help.
Therefore a great percentage Of
people would respond to the situa-
ton and try to be helpful. It's an in
herent quality Of a human being.
"Station in life doesn't have
much bearing on heroes. They
come from all walks Of life, the
poor, rich, and middle class. We
have no heroes under the age Of 8
"A child doesn't distinguish be-
tween danger and nondanger. After
that heroes car be any age. Hero
ism frequently Is almost a reflex

American Sailors

grounding Of the big Mo-"
Many Of the sailors voiced salty
disagreement with an order for
roomier garb, complete with zip
per to replace the customary 49,
button trousers. Pockets, too,
would be provided in the new uni
forms.
D. R. Feria, steward, third class,
from the Philippines, mourned the
passing Of the pants with 10 buttons
representing the 10 colonies.
Every part Of our uniform
stands for something" Feria said.
IF they change it, they will take
away some meaning that has been
with the navy for 200 years"
An Atlantic fleet headquarters
spokesman said privately that in a
recent poll aboard the cruiser Co.
lumbus not a single man favored
the new blues.
1.-THE new jumper looks like a
sack" said Apprentice Seaman
Jack R. Cunningham, 10, Of Ash
tabula, Ohio, who serves aboard
the m~inesweeper Peregrine. IT
don't like the pockets in the pants.
It looks too much like a civilian
outfit. I enlisted to be a sailor and
I want to look like one"
Seaman, first class, Bobby j.
Davis, 10, of Athens, Ala, predict
ed that a sailor wouldn't have a
girl in any port.
If they're going to give us civil
ian clothes, they ought to take
away u I'D identification and
liberty cards, too" Davis said.

American Bride
Less Costly
Than Primitive

WASHINGTON, D. C.-America',
lovely women may set up a how
at this. but it's a fact that Ameri
can brides come cheap-origina
cost, that is-compared to theil
les~s-civilized sisters of the gras:
skirt sets in primitive lands. Anc
no less a source than the Nationa.
Geographic Society is the authori
ty for that statement.
The society points out that the
American lover who has 81 or so in
his jeans a purchase a marriage
license and hustle his gal to the
altar. There. after the usual
pledges, he can slip the parson
whatever he can spare and be away
Oh his honeymoon.
But 1t isn't that simple among
primitive tribes.
Take New Guinea. There the ma
tive SWANS find a price tag Of 5000
on their lady loves. True, they can
go into the woods and pluck a few
wild flowers and maybe spear a
wild boar for the wedding feast,
but there still remains the original
cash outlay.
May Cost $3.50
In Nigeria, the high cost Of brides
Is causing a fine old to-do. Among
the Ibo-speaking people of that coun-
try, a shapely, pretty gal may win
for her pappy as much as $3.50,
while the parents Of a homely girl
with skinny pipes and buck teeth
would have to be satisfied with
three NANCY goats.
Around the world where BRIDE
buying Is an accepted custom, a
girl must hide her head in shame
unless she earns something for
papa.
Among the Kaffirs, members of
the Bantu rae of South Africa, a
girl who is not bought with cattle
is dubbed an "old cat" by her
campfire sisters. An "old cat'' down
there adds up to n wordsworth
less"
With the Kuki-Lushai people of
Assam, India, a young man is ex-
to give a few gourds of fire
water to his sweetheart's parents
when he calls to ask her to be his
own.
Groom Goes to Work
If the folks accept him, he moves
in on the girls father and goes
to work. He becomes a SER
want in the household for three
years. Then, if he has behaved, he
IS free to wed. But another two
years Of servitude is required be-
fore he can 60 into the woods and
cut down the material for his own
hut.
In Alaska, the situation is differ
mt. A hopeful sutton of the Kenai
bother to ask for parental
consent. He slips silently into the
I'D mans igloo and begins to cook,
lean and take care Of steaming
lp water for the baths. If he does
good job, he is allowed to work
for a year, then he can marry
he girl and start igloo inhabiting
n his own.
All of which makes America a
yonderful country.
We fellows expect, by tradition,
D have the papa-in-law foot all of
he bills for the wedding, give us
set of sterling and maybe a new
ouse for a wedding present.

Judy Garland's memorable Tech
nicolor musical, THE Wizard OF

piece reprint and again energies as
one of the most delightful and color
full production ever filmed.
The picture retains the wizardry
of l.. Frank Baun's book, read by
millions, together with an adult APP
peal in plot, dialogue and song. In
addition, it has some of the most
remarkable color sequences ever de-
vised for a motion picture. II you
can figure out how some of these
tricks are done, you're magician.
Judy Garland. as the wide-eyed
Dorothy who is blown away by
cyclone and finds fantastic adven-
lures in the Land of OF, is the same
sparkling, infectious and lifting
voiced Judy of such recent hits as
Easter Parade" and THE Pirate"
One of the high spots of the picture
is her singing of "Over the Rain
