earth. Miss Lucas sat up al
most all night comforting
him.
On another occasion q
WAC came here to attend
the funeral Of q brother. It
was showing. She was from
the South and had no heavy
coat. Miss Lucas lent her
her own fur coat.
Another time q Marine
came to the lounge and said
that he had q friend in town
whom he wanted to meet. But
all he could remember was
that her name was Mary.
Miss Lucas and her staff
worked on the problem for
five hours. They must have
made dozens of phone calls.
Mary was traced.
"Our policy is never to say,
NO to a boy until we have
tried" Miss Lucas said.
One occasion Miss Lucas
remembers with tenderness
is the time she overheard q
WAC, who was about to get
married in an Army chapel,
say she had always wanted
q formal wedding.
"a fancy wedding you'll
have, my child" Miss Lucas
told her.
So she and her staff ar
ranged for a church wedding.
They rounded up the neigh
bors. Flowers were picked
from the backyards Of houses.
And a big, formal wedding
took place followed by q re-
ception at which cake and
coffee were served.

The section Of the lounge
reserved for servicewomen or
the wives of servicemen is
equally comfortable. Miss

The interest that my readers
show by expressing their
opinions in their letters is
most gratifying and I thank
you all. However, the Ques-
tions pile up to a point where

Therefore once in a while the
question box"!
@. We are rather amused,
and quite surprised, by an
invitation to a so-called "bar
party" To be given for a
young man who is to be mar
ried next month, it has all
the earmarks of a shower"
You are instructed to bring
a gift for the bridegroom,
and something for a bar is
indicated. Could this be a
first, or is it becoming a Gus
tom for the men to try and
grab some of the attention
usually shown the bride-to-
be by having showers also?
Wives are invited to this
party, too. The world is really
getting mixed up! Have you
heard of this new trend?
Mrs. L. P. w.
A. I can't say I haveI To
my way of thinking regular
showers" for the bride-to-
be are overdone to q point
that Is ridiculous. 1t seems
to me that the time has come
to stop this foolishneSs. One,
or at the most two, showers
for the bride are enough, but
today five or six of these
parties would seem to be the
order of the day. Not only
do these surprise parties"
become boring to those who
are invited, it also costs quite
q lot Of money when you are
hooked" to buy, let's say,
five shower presents, and on
top of this a formal we'd
ding gift. The idea Of hav-
ing showers for the bride
groom should die aborning!
This would be Just too, too
muchl Common sense has
got to enter this picture
sooner or later. I feel very
strongly that it should be
sooner! Right now!
@. The baby Of q friend
Of mine died shortly after
birth. She is, of course, heart
broken. She has asked me to
write you to find out whether
or not she should return all
the lovely gifts that were
given her by relatives and
friends during the months
before the baby arrived. If
she should return the gifts,
must she send a note with
each one explaining why she
is sending it back?

Lucas saw to it that each
child got two toys.
Boys passing through the
lounge write home about the
service given them. The
mothers write thanking Miss
Lucas for it.
On occasion Miss Lucas
herself writes to a mother
telling her that her son was
in the lounge. This service
is performed only If the
soldier asks for it.
One mother replied to such
a note: Il have sent five sons
to the Army. Which son did
you mean?"
A native Of Charles Town,

been a social worker all her

USO Director Recalls

Star Staff Writer

by MOhAMMED A. hAUF, Jf
Star Staff Writer
Miss Mary E. Lucas is a
woman who has her own
guiding and helping way with
members of the armed forces.
For the past IL years she
has been the genial director
of the USO lounge at Union
Station. AS such she has
come to know thousands upon
thousands of service person.
mel who pass through the
station on their way to bases
all over the world.
Her help to them, given
personally or through her
staff, has ranged from getting
a soldier billeted for the night
to sewing a button on his
uniform and taking care of
his puppies and white mice.
Due for retirement at the
end of this month, Miss Lucas
has both sad and humorous
stories to tell of her acquaint-
ance with men and women
of the three branches of the
armed forces
She recalled, for example,
the WAVE who spent a night
in the lounge. A year later
she came back to introduce
her husband to Miss Lucas.
The year after that she re-
turned to show Miss Lucas
her baby. But the following
year she was back weeping
because the baby was des-
perately sick at the Walter
Reed Hospital.
USO Motto
The motto of the USO Is
"a Home Away from Home"
And Miss Lucas knows how
to live up to it.
Seventy per cent Of the
soldiers who pass through
this lounge are kids from the
ages Of II to 20. They are
away from their homes for
the first time in their lives.
Drawn from the hills and viii
lagos, they are bewildered
when they come to this big
town.
"They can get into mis-
chief, but while they are with
us, I see that they DON'T"
Miss Lucas said.
Sometimes a kid will ask
me all kinds Of foolish ques-
tions. It's very important to
find out what the boy wants
when he asks crazy questions.
Maybe he just wants to talk,
or tell someone his expert
enceS, or to show someone
the things he has brought
back, or, maybe he is just
plain lonely. These are nat
ural states with any person.
"The thing to do is not
to repulse him, or be brusque
with him, but to listen him
out, and be gentle about it.
Our policy is never to be
rude no matter how rude the
kid is. 1t pays to be that way.
The session normally ends
with the kid and us becom-
ing friends" Miss Lucas
added.
The Sad and The Happy

came to attend the burial Of
his soldier father in Arling-
ton Cemetery. The father was
