They both wanted to 60 TO the

Now the STATUE or MR..

said, @All right. all right, but /
really don't like very much to

So they all started 10 carve a
head for DRAGON PLUSH.
French CLOTHILDE scooped out
two big round eyes. The CHINA
DOGS made him a long nose. The
littIest Of the CHINA DOGS
pinched 8 nice fat wsr1 or the

some saucer-sized ears. and the
STATUE OF Mr.. PICKWICK
got busy on the mouth Of ORA
CON PLUSH.
But the STATUE OF MR..
P1CKWICK carved very slowly
and he was making q little mouth
instead Of a big dragons mouth.
But when they pat the dragons
head with the little mouth on
DRAGON PLUSH, he just yawned
very wide and stretched il into
q dragons mouth.
How do you feel. my dear

CLOTHILDE.
I'm raring 10 80, answered
DRAGON PLUSH, I'm raring to

In another adjudication. the De-

The econd question is whether OF

evacuated or excluded from d mill
tary area within the meaning Of
Section I of the act.
"There would seem to be no doubt
that he was so excluded" the de-
partment held. This would have
been true even If he had remained
within the boundaries Of Military

case of persons who were evacuated

Congress did not intend to with
hold compensation merely because
legal ownership happened to be in
a member OF the family who, be-
cause of infancy Or illness. happened
to be in position where he could
not personally care for the property
at the time of his evacuation.
TT is, of course, impossible to
know what the situation would have
been but for the evacuation Of the
entire family" the department said.
But WHEN infants and other persons
without legal capacity are deprived
OF the services and care of their IA
miles, their interests are usually
safeguarded in some fashion by the
community. Where such persons are
unable to make provisions for them
selves, 1t is common practice, for ex-
ample, for guardians to be appoint

The department reached the con-
clusion that "a person of Japanese
