technique I'd long since perfected - the sne-to-be-
refused offer to help. It has two basic requirements:
knowledge of the right and wrong way to do some
thing and dogmatic insstence on pursuing the
latter course
Suppose you bunder in on someone about to paint
his kitchen. Don't turn around and run. Speak right
up tive got some spare time, you volunteer Get
me some paint and fetch me an extra brush"
He shakes his head. mot yet,'' he says THE
walls are dirty have to be scrubbed first"
Of course he's absolutely right, but you demand.
''Whered you get that crazy idea?"
That's what the directions say"
Directions? What do they know? No sense in 60
ing to all that trouble to remove dirt when the paints
going to cover it anyhow"
But the paint will peel, he protests.
"S1liest thing ever heard" you insist. Give me
the brush. Where do you want me to start?"
Ifyouve employed the technique correctly which
means going strong on the pig-headedness he will
now force you out of the house. tactfuly otherwise
and you're free to 60 home and loaf. However. your
offer has put him under an obligation to you and you
casually remark that there's large rock embedded
in your driveway and you could use helping hand
when he has few minutes to spare Of course if he
shows up later with some sticks of dynamite you'll
realize that he too has mastered the technique.
My First Mistake
MUST again stress the importance of knowing the
difference between the right and wrong ways, and the
perils of being an ignoramus This was indelibly i'm
pressed on me early in my career as mis-heper. A
friend had an asparagus bed, and he said that he
couldn't play tennis with me until he did something
about the weeds.
/ made my usual enthusiastic offer to help and
followed through with the first completely cockeyed
suggestion that came into my head: "Just sprinkle
lot salt all over the ground You got enough handy"
To my horror it turned out that there was widely
held theory that salt good for asparagus besides
being weed preventative 1t turned out further that
my friend had several large bags of rock salt But
since the idea mine he figured was an expert and
let me do the whole job spen the better part of the
next hour sowing salt and kicking myself in the pants
But you can be sure haven't slipped up since.
Either know the wrong way to do something or
keep my trap shut. My reputation as an always
wiLing-to-help guy is ace-high.
Incidentally I'd love to come over and help burn
your brush pile. Well pick nice breezy day so it
will burn WELL and I'll bring bucket of gasoline just
to make sure The End

But this very fact spells the diff
ference between killing power and
ineffective firepower.
The present US. Army commit
nications system has been tested
and proved in battle. 1t has en-
abled American commanders to
contain and, in many instances,
defeat armies far superior in
numbers.
The Russians have learned the
hard way that a division without
communications is like a muscle
without nerves.
Russia now is making every ef-
fort to provide its forces with a
communications system as eff
cient as that of the us. Army.
Since the beginning of the Ko-
rean conflict, the Russians have
i'm. ated every major u. S. tech
nique.
It present, u Fer cent of the
Russian infantry organization is
assigned to communications du-
ties. In the US. Army, the figure
is Is per cent. If the Russian eff
forts to improve their conmuni-
cations system are successful, the
three per cent differential is GER
tain to be closed.
US. artillery has proved to be
the most flexible and, therefore,
the most powerful known to the
modern world. A very significant
comparison of modern comnuni-
cations-controlled artillery YER
sus the older style-can be drawn
from the Korea7 conflict.
US. operations in Korea are
supported by artillery which is
the last word in effectiveness due
largely TO communications. North
Korean and Chinese artillery
units ere at a great disadvantage
because they often are limited to
pre-arranged fire missions be-
cause Of a lack of communica-
tions. Forward observers are un.
able to obtain fire on targets OF
opportunity. Communist infantry
units are unable TO obtain rapid
counter-battery fire, so necessary

With the ever increasing need for
trained professional services TINS
question is asked at all ages. There
has seldom been a little girl who
didn't enjoy putting her dolls to bed
and playing nurse. This little pa

Chicago is no exception. She is tell

Just like YOU.
Favorite places for duty in the
340O bed hospital are the children's
wards and the child development
plavroom; and in the three years 1t
takes to achieve her diploma every
student has the opportunity to learn
the care of children.
Because statistics prove that the
graduate nurse also makes a Won
derful wife and mother; and is in
variably leader in her community,
the University of Illinois Cook
County School of Nursing has
adopted the slogan Your Nursing
Education is Never Wasted.

loss of manpower

powes-goes into action. The ar
tiilery OF an entire corps-on the
average perhaps 270 guns ranging
from 105-millimeter howitzerS to
eight-inch rifles can be concen-
trated and fired at such carefully
calculated intervals that all pro-
jectiles, literally tons of high ex-
posives, strike the target at the
same instant. The result is mass
destruction-and wholesale death.
Such a mission is simple for u.
S. artillerymen but it is far be-
yond the capability of Communist
armies.
No army in the world benefits
so much from a full and rapid
flow of intelligence as does tht
US. Army. This is dependent upon
rapid communications adequate to
carry the load of information.
The supply system of the US.
Army is geared to support. the
flexibility and high mobility of
combat forces. But without COM
munications, the supply system
would fail.
To reduce communications and
thereby decimate the effectiveness

abandon one of the most favor
able factors that has made the u,

"One of the key factors promot-

greatly expanoed use of fertilizer
and lime. Fertilizer use nationally
reached an all-time high in 1851,
totaling 20,988, 740 tons. That was
"A per cent ahead Of the previous
