AN ESSAY

A little boys essay on geese:
"A geese is low, heavy-set
bold which is mostly meet and
feathers. His head sits on one
side and he sits on the other. A
geese can't sing much on ac-
count of dampness Of the mois-
ture. He amt got no between
hls-toes and he's got little bal
loon on his stomach to keep him
from sinking. Some goosses
when they gifts big has curls on
their tails and is called ganders.
Gamblers don't hiatt to sit and
hatch but just eat and loaf, and
so swimming. If | was a goose,
I'd rather be a gander.'

t##l#. 80 "- as
life and fondly reminisces the
old days when, women Of the
most Improbable character
entered the Army because OF
their patriotic fervor. These
women would do anything to
serve their country" Conse-
quently, it was fitting for
Ruby, when Colonel Stephen
w. Holderness, Fort Dix chief
Of staff, paid special tribute
to her at the retirement c:ere-
mony, to act like both a soldier
and a woman at once; to feel
highly honored" as a soldier,
and to cry" lie a woman.
In twenty years OF working
with men, it is only natural
that Ruby should have some
interesting views on them. She
claims, II would never work
for a woman" She feels men
are 'more broad minded" and
Ruby means it in both senses.
However, she thinks, Men are
more understanding than
women and are less picayun-
ish. They solve problems bet
ter than women" Lastly, she
adds, Besides, when you get
in a bind, tears always work
on them" Ruby is always IN
character.
Still, Ruby does not feel that
men are superior to women,
each excels in different
spheres" She doesn't think a
woman is fitted to be a truck
driver, but she would like to
see more women mess ser
geants. "They would pay more
attention to the details; the
things that make a meal nice"
After being feted at many
luncheons, such as a recent one
at the N~oncommissioned Offi-
GERS Lounge of the 9Th Train
ing Regiment, where she was
presented a piece of luggage
and an engraved lighter from
the Senior NCO's of the Regi-
ment, Ruby will prepare to
return to her island" Her
reasons for going back are con-
sistent with all the things she
has done and has stood for in
her life. Ruby would like, ITO
help my country grow, and
help the young girls learn how
to contribute to this growth
and ft into its society" RUBY
