GLASBENA MATICA VABI NA KONCERT V NEDELJO V nedeljo večer ob osmih bo priredila Glasbena matica pod vodstvom Ivana Zormana sijajen koncert v avditoriju SND. Program za ta koncert je res nekaj posebno lepega in vsak Slovenec in Slovenka bi ga morala slišati ter si poživiti svojo narodno zavest ob nebeških melodijah. Ves prvi del programa obsega kantato "V pepelnični noči," kjer nastopijo soli in zbor. Besedilo je našega goriškega slav-čka Simona Gregorčiča, uglas-bil ga je pa p. Hugolin Sattner. V drugem delu so pa največ mični odlomki iz raznih oper, kjer nastopijo: žensko zbor, solisti, kvartet, dvospevi in mešan zbor. Glasbena matica zasluži, da bi pela v nedeljo večer nabito polni dvorani. Vstopnice lahko kupite v predprodaji pri Mrs. Makovec v SND.

April 29, 1944 MacArthur pod drobnogledom Zadnje čase je bilo v časopisih in po radiu številnokrat omenjeno ime generala MacArthurja v zvezi s kandidaturo za predsednika Zed. držav na republikanski listi. Točasno je MacArth ur, kot je vsakemu znano, vrhovni poveljnik vse zavezniške bojne sile na južnem Pacifiku. Kar se tiče njegove kandidature, trdijo njegovi osebni prijatelji, ni general odgovoren zanjo. Njegovo ime je prišlo v javnost brez njegovega privoljenja po njegovih obože-vateljih. On sam ni pa niti z besedico omenil, če bi sprejel kandidaturo ali je ne bi, če bi mu bila ponudena po delegaciji nardone republikanske konvencije. Nobene postave pa ni, da bi take kandidature ne smel sprejeti, najsi je aktiven general v ameriški armadi. Samo kampanje se aktivno ne sme udeležiti, dokler je v aktivni službi. Nekateri mislijo, da bi bil MacArthur v času vojne velika privlačna sila pri volivcih in da bi republikanska stranka ž njim sigurno zmagala. Drugi pa, o tem zopet dvomijo in trdijo, da general nima dovolj prakse kot administrator in diplomat in da to, če je dober vojaški poveljnik, še ne zadostuje, da bi bil tudi dober predsednik naše Unije. Ker se vsak dan sliši in bere njegovo ime, naj-naše čita-telje nekoliko podrobneje seznanimo s tem odličnim Ameri-kancem, ki je pri odhodu s Filipinov obljubil, da bo še prišel nazaj in ako opazujemo njegovo sedanjo vojaško strategijo, vse kaže, da bo svojo obljubo tudi izpolnil. Tujec bi morda dobif vtis, da se smatra MacArthur kot superiorno osebo. Toda taka sodba na prvi pogled pozablja vzeti v poštev istočasno njegove fine kakovosti, ki so karakteristika njegove notrannje osebe. Reči se pa mora o tem junaku, da mu je popolnoma vseeno. kaj kdo misli o njem. Ako je gotov, da je v pravem, mu je popolnoma vseeno če se kdo strinja ž njim ali pa ne in se ne boji ne kritike, niti mu ni mar pohvala. Mnogi so mnenja, da bi bil moral ostati s svojimi četami na Filipinih, ker potem bi ga smatrali za mučenika in junaka. Fakt pa je, da če bi bil MacArthur prepričan, da je njegova navzočnost na Filipinih potrebna, bi bil ostal tam, ne glede na to, če je dobil od svojega vrhovnega poveljnika (predsednika) ukaz, da mora oditi s Filipinov. Položaj na Filipinih takrat, ko so jih zasuli Japonci, bi ne bil prav nič drugačen, a naša bojna sila bi danes ne imela tako izvrstnega poveljnika na Pacifiku. MacArthur ne da popolnoma nič na publiciteto ali popularnost. Kar je njegova glavna skrb je moštvo, ki služi pod njim. Nikdar ni še po nepotrebnem žrtvoval vojake, ako je msilil, da bo dosegel svoj cilj na kak drug način. Pripravljen je pa vsak čas vzeti nase delež v nevarnostih na fronti. Kot vojak je hladen in sistematičen kot stroj, z velikim znanjem vseh vrst bojevanja. Predvsem ga diči ena lastnost in to je, da zna reči tudi — ne. V akutnih vprašanjih se odloči naglo in sigurno. Lastnosti in zmožnosti svojih podrejenih častnikov pozna do pičice. In kadar je na tem, da poveri komu važno nalogo, jo bo poveril tistemu, ki se mu zdi najbolj sposoben za to, pa naj bo potem ta že njegov največji prijatelj, ali pa največji sovražnik. V tem oziru ne pozna general absolutno nobene osebne naklonjenosti, ampak samo gotova fakta, ki govore za čPoveka. Z eno besedo— MacArthur je človek, ki ga mnogi občudujejo, pa malo kateri ljubijo. Občudujejo ga kot izvrstnega vojaškega poveljnika, da mu je malo kdo par, ne ljubijo ga pa radi tega, ker živi samo za svojo vojsko in za uspehe 'Svojih fantov in nima časa, pa tudi ne volje za družabno občevanje, za poklone in podobno. Takim poveljnikom Amerika brez skrbi lahko zaupa svoje sinove. i iiiii'1'i'ii iiriiiriiiriio BESEDA IZ NARODA •M"MiM"M"tM UM** 4 | M I W*tHlt I t | M) 1. i I^M-MH Lokalni odbor Št. 2 JPO-SS J'1 pomagati, kadaf vidimo, da to lahko storimo. Vse društvene zastopnike in zastopnice lokalnih društev obveščam, da se vrši zastopniška seja v torek 2. maja ob osmih zvečer v spodnji dvorani SND na St. Clair Ave. Redna seja vseh zastopnikov in zastopnic bi se prav za prav morala vršiti že zadnji torek, ki pa se iz gotovega vzroka ni vršila. Zato ste prošeni vsi, ki zastopate svoja društva, ali ki se sploh zanimate za to človekoljubno akcijo, da se gotovo udeležite te seje. Podano bo tudi finančno poročilo o zadnji prireditvi, nakar boste zastopniki in zastopnice lahko poročali pri svojih društvih. Torej bodite točni v torek 2. maja ob osmih zvečer, da bomo lahko ob času pričeli s sejo in tudi hitro skončali. Na pomoč! Frank A. Turek, tajnik -o-— Ameriško-Slovenski državljanski klub Skrbi jih pa le! Nemci venomer trobijo svojim poslušalcem na radiu, da bodo zavezniki sicer izvedli ali poskušali z invazijo, da pa ne bodo nikdar prestopili silnih trdnjav na zapadnem obrežju. Videti je, da so Nemci sil'no nervozni, ker ne vedo "ne ure ne dneva" invazije, vedo pa, da je neizogibna. Zato skušajo z vsemi propagandnimi sredstvi, da bi vlili pogum v srce narodu doma in vojakom, ki čakajo za utrdbami na zaveznike. Oni dan je pariški radio nenadoma in z važnim naglasom naznanjal: "Invazija je blizu, bližje kot si kdo misli!" Nemška komanda je posvarila čete vse od Norveške do južne Francije, naj odbijejo ogromni naval zavezniške armade na zapadno obrežje, ki "lahko udari vsako minuto." Berlinski radio je poročal, da zavezniki zbirajo silne mase vojaštva na angleški obali za invazijo preko preliva. V isti sapi pa nemški propagandisti vpijejo: Ali so zavezniki pozabili, da stoji pripravljenih 300,000 nemških vojakov za sprejem? Zopet druga nemška radijska postaja je vpila:.'"Vsak nemški vojak se mora boriti kot lev v bojih, ki so pred nami." Francoski kvizling Laval je jamral: "Prepričan sem, da se bo ob času invazije vsulo nad Francijo na tisoče zavezniških parasutarjev." Tako si Nemci in njih kvizlingi dajejo pogum, v upu in strahu, nekaj pričakujoč, pa ne vedo prav za prav, kaj bo. Njih strah ni neupravičen. I Barberton, O.—Dne 7. maja ob sedmih zvečer bo seja našega Ameriško-slovenskega državljanskega kluba, v dvorani društva Domovina ,sklicana v glavnem zavoljo primarnih volitev, katere se bodo vršile dne 9. maja. Letošnje primarne volitve bodo posebno važne za nas Slovence v naši državi Ohio, vsled kandidature našega rojaka Frank J. Lauscheta za guvernerja na demokratski listi. Velika večina slovenskih vo-lilcev v Barbertonu in v okolici je že včlanjena v našem klubu, vendar pa imamo še precej naše odrasle mladine volilne starosti, katera še ni pri nas. Starejši članstvo aje prosi, da naj jih opozori na l&^firiia volitve, ker noben Slovenec naj ne bi zanemaril iti na volišče in tam voliti za Lauscheta, ter mu tako pomagati postati naš prihodnji guverner in obenem prvi slovenski guverner v zgodovini Združenih držav, kar bi seveda bilo našemu narodu v zelo veliko čast, in kredit. Da je Lausche splošno priljubljen publiki kaže tudi dejstvo, da se je v našem mestu ustanovil po v politiki vodilnih osebah Lausche-for-Governor klub ,kateri bo sklical shod nekaj dni pred volitvami, kar bo poročano v našem lokalnem časopisu in iia katerega bo najbrž prišel tudi kandidat sam. V. Lauter. -o-- V pozdrav materam Polagoma nas zapušča starka zima in cvetoča pomlad se nam približuje prijazno kot mlada nevesta, pomladno sonce se nam smehlja kot nedolžno dete v zibelki in nam podaja svoje žarke v objem. Narava §e s prebuja in pomladanske cvetlice že poganjajo svoje glavice, da jih poljubu je topli veter, ki ziblje drobne ptičke po zelene-čih vejah, kjer si pripravljajo svoja gnezda, kjer se bo rodilo novo življenje. Res krasna je pomlad, vsakdo se je veseli. Da se bomo ma- Program bo j ako lep in vsak posetnik bo imel res lep užitek. Na programu bo več živih slik, posebno pa bo lepa slika v spomin umrlim materam in pa slika materam vojakov. Pri tej zadnji sliki nam bo zapela Mrs. Agnes Žagar "Rožni venec" in pa "Oj, večer je že Mla- dina pa bo nastopala v petju, plesu, godbi, posamezno kakor v zboru. Poleg tega pa bodo na programu tudi lepe deklama-cije. Ves program bo vodila V slovenščini Viki Hočevar. Po programu pa bo ples in prosta zabava. Plesalci se bodo lahko zavrteli ob zvokih mladinske godbe. Miss Viki Hočevar je pobrala skupaj vse najboljše talente iz mladinskega oddelka vseh treh društev SDZ v New-brugu, da bodo nastopili na tem programu. Ker je ona voditeljica naše mladine tukaj, zato bo gotovo tudi ona najbolje poznala njihove zmožnosti. Torej člani SDZ in vsi ostali, napolnite dvorano, sezite po vstopnicah in s seboj pripeljite tudi svoje' prijatelje, da se borne skupno z mladino poveselili in vsaj za trenutek pozabili svojo otožnost in težave življenja, s katerimi smo tako silno obdani. Pozdravljeni! Apolonija Kic, članica društva št. 20 SDZ. -o- Vsakemu kar mu gre Radi poveličujemo vse ustanove, posebno narodne, radi pa pozabljamo take, ki so v resnici zaslužne za v blagor in v korist naroda. V tem mislim na šolske sestr6, na katere se le malo kdaj ozremo v javnosti, da bi jim dali zasluženo priznanje! En vzroft je namreč ta, ker je njih stan tak, da ne pričakuje javnega priznanja. To pa nas ne sme motiti, da bi lhi ne smeli, ali pa da nam ni potreba izraziti do njih naše priznanje, saj delajo za nas, za naše malčke, katere želijo, in si vse prizadevajo, da bi jih naredile časno in večno srečne. V tem se bo sukal ta dopis, ker se mi vidi potreben. Tudi sestre so ljudje, saj so iz naših družin. Pri tem so pa še izobražene, učiteljice so! Za to ne bo nič proti nobeni postavi, če se človek izrazi njim v priznanje, bodo vsaj vedele, da se zavedamo njih požrtvovalnih del. Da bomo bolj spoznali njih vredno žrtvovanje in sodelovanje, za katero so se posvetile Bogu v službo .moramo vedeti, kako veliko delo vrše z vzgojo naše mladine v naših katoliških šolah. To moramo vzeti na podlagi našega verskega prepričanja, drugače bi bilo o tem pisati nesmiselno. Kot katoličani pa se moramo zavedati te vrednote, katera se ne da opisati, le starši, katerim je na tem, da bi bila njih deca vzojena in izobražena tako, da bi.odgovarjalo za ljudsko in za versko stališče, ti starši samo, bi lahko napisali knjigo o vrednosti teh šolskih sestra. Od vzoje vsakega otroka je odvisna njegova bodočnost. V teh besedah je zapopadeno neizmerno veliko misli, katere bi lo razveselile tudi me slovenske matere v teh žalostnih časih, ko se dale na široko opisovati. Ako dan na dan vzdihujemo v tež kem pričakovanju, kdaj se nam povrnejo ljubljeni sinovi z bojnih front in da za hip pozabimo na vse to, nam bo mladina Slovenske dobrodelne zveze v Nevv-burgu priredila j ako pester program na Materinski dan, 14. maja. Torej, ne zamudite te prilike. Tu bosta videli zmožnost naše maldine ter ji s svojo navzočnostjo daste pogum, da bo ta naša mladina nekoč zmožna voditi našo Slovensko dobrodelno zvezo. Zato pa jo moramo sedaj pripraviti na to in bi hotel dati malo primere, bi lahko zapisal takole: "Družina, ki ima sina ali hči, katera jim je vse na svetu, in se ze.lo boji, kako bo ta sin ali ta hčerka vzgojena, da bo srečno živela na svetu. Ta družina bi rada potrošila mogoče tisoče, samo za to, da bo njih ljubljeni otrok prav in dobro vzgojen. Da bo srečen on in znjim še starši." Tu imamo pred seboj primero, ki velja za vsako družino, ki ima svoje otroke. Kje je družina, da ne bi želela svojemu otroku najboljše vzgoje in sre- če na svetu. Če jo bo imel otrok jo bodo znjim imeli tudi njegovi starši. Vsaki družini je otrok tudi tako dragocen, da ga ne bi mogel nikdo za noben denar odkupiti. Torej, se razume, da je vzgoja za slednjega otroka tako neprecenljivo dragocena, važna in pomembna, da se to ne da opisati. To veliko in odgovorno mesto pa očetje in matere lahko in brez skrbi poverijo tem šolskim sestram. Zakaj ? Zato, ker so za to učene, vedo, kako ravnati z malčki, ki so še kot taki, kakor tudi pozneje, ko odrasejo, ko zahteva vzgoja drugačno učenje in nadzorovanje. Tako, torej to, kar bi za drag denar mogoče učili dragi učitelji, store ta naše šolske sestre učiteljice tako rekoč zastonj, s požrtvovanjem, s čistim namenom po njih redu in poklicu za pravo katoliško vzgojo in izobrazbo. Da, še bolj, nego najbolj učeni profesorji! To pa radi tega, ker so nežne in se prilagajo nežnim srcem v nežni besedi, v prijazni in ljubez-njivi maniri, ker poznajo blago srčece malčkov, ki je kakor rahla žemljica, v katere vsajajo rožice lepih otroških čednosti. Tako v času malčkov, ki začno pohajati v šolo, dalje pa, nikar ne mislite, da so te sestre tudi samo za take malčke in da nimajo zmožnosti za vzgojo starejših učencev in učenk, bodite bre zskrbi. Te učiteljice so temeljito učene, lahko bolj kot najbolj znani učitelji in profesorji in zakaj? Zato, ker so se posvetile samo za vzgojo mladine in jih ne moti nobena druga stranska politika, kar se toli-krat zgodi z učitelji, ali z učiteljicami privatnega stanu. Kolikokrat smo že čitali, kaj se je dogajalo v publičnih šolah med' enimi in drugimi. "Sestre so tudi umetnice." Še druga stvar je pred menoj, da pišem ta dopis o sestrah, to je njih umetnost v kinčanju oltarjev. Le oseba, ki se zanima samo za vrsto umetnosti, se povzpne tako v umetnosti, da zadene pravi slog, ki odgovarja dejstvu, za katerega se gre. V naših katoliških cerkvah, posebno med nami Slovenci, ki ljubimo cvetlice in olepšave, so naši oltarji tako umetno okrašeni. da se oči ne morejo istih nagledati. To mi potrjuje dejstvo, d'a tako rad posnamem obličje stare cerkve v novo, kakor se oživi tudi duh vernika, ko se zamisli v sv. skrivnosti, zunanja lepota zbranih cvetlic, je lep pripomoček za zbrane molitve. Kdor je bil v cerkvi sv. Vida na velikanočno nedeljo, potem pa še dve nedelji za tem, ko se je pričela 40 urna pobožnost, ta je moral, rad ali ne rad, priznati izvanredno umetnost v okinčanju velikega oltarja, ki je bil okrašen s tako sijajno zbranimi cvetlicami. Ko sem to opazoval, se mi je zopet ponovila misel, ki mi pravi: "Zakaj mi ljudje izdajamo toliko za cvetlice za naše rajne, kateri jih ne vidijo, za cvetlice pa na oltarje Bogu, ki jih je ustvaril, se le nekateri zmenijo, večina morajo le sestre same zbirati skupaj po nikeljnih, to nikakor ni naše pravilno ravnanje. Ob kateri drugi priliki bom napisal, kako bi se dalo to izboljšati. Za danes naj zadostuje. Čestitam sestram in jim izrekam veliko spoštovanje.

That's the motto Elsie Kle-mencic goes by .It was her first game and she even out-played some of us "oldsters." How did you do it, El? What "blonde" had Matt Mlinar out the night before? He had to mark his ball with white chalk and even then he took the wrong one! Tch, tch, tch! I can account for one of Fanny Zak's strikes! Any gal would be sure to get a strike if a handsome male crom across the way would wink; we inderstand, Frances ! I also know why Millie didn't get many strikes! (I wonder if it'd be wise to spill it, yep? I think I will.) 3he had her eye on a soldier! These Women!!! Frank Mlinar made every ball count. He topped us all with a score of 204. (OK Frank, you can exhale now—a 'big chest" doesn't become you! I never could put "heels and bowleg" together. By "heels" I don't mean you, or you, or you, but the high-heeled sandals Jo Kozel wore while bowling. Ag Kosec looked like she was "rar-n' to go"—to sleep! Maybe it's time o switch to "Sanka Coffee" instead if the "Franka Coffee" she's been Irinking. (Remember the last meet-ng?) This world is full of surprises! Jane Cntihar and Angle sure surprised us by showing off their bowling techni-iues. Well, times up, more next time! -o- Remember "Way back when the only mile runner we could think of was Joie Ray. and about that time prohibition was making Its bow and opening up a lot of jobs and graft pots? * 'Way back when Babe Ruth was: a pitcher and a good one . . . ball players and sports writers wore caps . . . and bath tub gin was the scientific marvel of the early proliibiiton era? * 'Way back when automobilists bragged about doing 500 miles a day . . . and carried two spares . . . and there was a baseball team at every grade school, high school and college? • 'Way back when the Olympic Games were renewed and every race and creed shook hands all around . . and flivers came out of Detroit with self-starters and everybody was happy? * 'Way back when the Japs invaded America, but with a baseball team . and things looked so good we thought we'd have two chickejjs in every pot, and 15 golf clubs in every bag? * 'Way back when Judge Landis arrived on the scene and gave the peanut industry a big boost . . . and the first breakdown in men's dress came with the advent of the soft collar? --o-- STRIKES AND SPARES There arc plenty cf "Pin-Up" girls these days but where in the world are the "pin up" boys? . . . Can't you just picture us Orels left standing on the side-lines of Omarlo Bowling-Recreation Hall—all because of a shortage of "pin boys." ir was almost a whole "half-hour" before they finally took "pity" on us bv sending someone to set up the pins that we Orels were just aching to knock down. (That's about as far as we did get . . . "aching"— that's all.) A run, a thump, and a crash!!! What was that? Why that was Jo Zajc starting off the game, but right! Jo played a swell game that day, but one could notice that ssmething was missing. Her "inspiration," Frank Pa-vellch preferred a fishing trip rather than an Orel Baling Party. Eleanor Karlinger and Helen M(?giic made their appearance* in a "Feck-a-boo' fashion. Brief!—but very nice! For some reason or other my mind kept wandering to the pia-pen at Stu-Sek's farm. Why??? If you could only hear the squeals Maryanne Sever let NEWS FROM OUR BOYS Continued From Page 4 shop: Hook On, tailor. One local merchant is named "Sing On Kee" and he doesn't_£ell ukeleles, either. But, Y. K. Look is an optometrist. That's really typical here as far as names go. A thumbnail sketch of Honolulu reveals many items of interest. It takes some time to get used to houses without chimneys. Rainbows, sometimes double and again triple, one sees almost daily, over the valleys. Lunar rainbows, a true rainbow seen on a rainy moonlit night, are not common, but are something to see, when they do appear. The rain, or "liquid sunshine," as it is called, is truly that, for it rains on one side of the street and not on the other—sort of a "now you see it" and "now you don't" affair. Papayas are melons which grow on trees in a cluster at the top. Out on the Pali Road, one can see an upside-down waterfall. The water falls up, from the strong winds that blow from underneath the falls. A few farmers still use the old-fashioned water buffaloes, to plow their rice fields, and in Hawaii, rice is bought in hundred-pound bags instead cf one-pound packages. , War has brought congestion to everything, for we wait in line to shop, to eat, to ride, to drink beer, to see a movie, or what have you. But it takes a. lot of men to win a war, and we have lots of them here, so we're not kicking too much. Staggered hours have helped the transportation some. As "Sol Pluvius," (a favorite Honolulu columnist) says: "It's not only crowded at eight and four o'clock, now it's crowded all day long," and he's iust about right. Those of us who thought we were coming over here for some good fishing, surely got fooled. Not even the old time Hawaiians, whose diet consisted largely of "fish and poi," get to do much fishing. The Mahimahis, the Kihikihis and even the Humuhu-munukunukuapuaas, (colorful fishes), are plentiful and will stay that way, I guess, for the duration. After the war, this place will be a fisherman's "paradise." We do have lots of genuine Hawaiian music, and believe you me, the "canned" variety that we used to get back home, is far from the real McCoy. It takes the perfection of Hawaiian weather, the profusion of Hawaiian flowers, and the pale Hawaiian moon, to give it the blend that makes real zest. Could be, that this cornbin ation gained for these islands their title: "Paradise of the Pacific." Could be, too. the same combination brought on the all to true epithet, "Paradise of the Prolific," and I do mean prolific Hawaii is a beautiful place, even now as it bears the scars of Hirohito's landscaping job of Dec. 7th. What it will be after the war, I can hardly imagine, due to' all the militant changes the war has brought to Hawaii. I'm quite sure it will be different, but just between you and me, I'm not going to stick around and see, for although this place is a paradise, I'm going to try, if I can. to get back to the good old home town as fast as I can. I'll close now, with my best regards to all my firends and with love to my folks. I'll finish off now with "Aloha Nui Loa," which means "Till we meet again." Pfc.

I have one suggestion for them, as long as the editions are going to the boys in the service all over the world. How about having them devote a few lines to a Slovenian American dictionary to help over tome of the words and phrases? It's not hard to learn to read it. Some of the boys that don't know a word of it, would try nad make something out of it, if' they had a little help. How about calling the editor and telling him of my suggestion? Your loving son.

PUBLICITY COMMITTEE -—o- Curtain Going Up It is Sunday evening of April 30 and you are ushered into a comfortable seat at Slovenian National Home. The house lights dim and the curtain goes up. Before you stands a group of well-known singers. They are ready to give you the best performance of their life. Yes. thev are the Glasbena Matica organization. For its spring concert. Glasbena Matica has arranged a very appropriate program. The main feature of the program will be the well-known contata, "Ob pepelnicni Noci," by p.1 Hugolin Sattner. Composer Sattner needs no introduction among the Slovenes of America. His compositions are sung and played in churches and other places where people meet to hear Slovene classics. Excerpts from your favorite operas such as "Carmen," "Tales of Hoffman," "Rigoletto," "Martha." and others will be included in the second half of the program. Therefore, do not miss the opportunity of hearing your favorite group of singers. Remember the date, tomorrow evening, April 30, at 8 p. m. at Slovenian National Home on St. Clair JOSEPHINE MISIC Toastmaster: "If* I tried to explain to you the intricacies of the new income tax blanks I should only display my abysml ignorance. I prefer to leave this to our guest speaker." * Sister's Suitor: "Johnny, I dislike to tell you. but last night at the. party your sister promised to become my wife. Can you forgive me for taking her away?" Johnny: "Shucks, that's what the party was for." • The two girls were exchanging confidences over the luncheon table. "What did the Sergeant say when vou told him you'd be a sister to him?" "Why the rascal had the nerve to ask me to lend him a dollar so he could take another girl to a movie." • A scoldirife wife can say endless disconcerting things, and she hits or misses: but a silent woman says everything. • One of our soldiers in England, unused to the British vernacular, was nonplussed by the friendly suggestion that he join one of the natives in a pot of ale. O. K„ said the soldier, who jumps in first? The top-kick flays his cringing brood, With language lurid, crisp and crude; The colonel's equally emphatic, But uses cuss words more grammatic. * A marine in the Makin Island assault accidentally sat in a large can of red paint on one of the landing barges and a large red splotch was left on the seat of his pants. The landing effected, the marines lay on his stomach, firing at Japs, when a medical man happened along and mistook the paint for blood. He began snipping with scissors while the marine continued firing. It wasn't until the entire seat of the pants had been cut out that the marine laid down his gun, looked over his shoulder and growled: "What the hell are you doing?" * . Nervous bridegroom to clergyman: "Is it customary to cu^s the bride?" Clergyman: "Not yet. son." * Georgie had been called up with his group, and in due time was made orderly in the officers' mess. Here he was told that his duties were to rise at four o'clock each morning. clean out the mess, always to do as he was told, and give no back-answers. "Rlght-ho!" said Georgie cheerfully, "I can manage that. It'll be just like being at home wi' the missus." * A Customer: "Why do you have an apRle as your trade mark? You're a tailor." Tailor: "Well, if it hadn't been for an apple, where would the clothing business be?" under your hat. is t° . n, Hawaiian whiskey '6 short for Okolehao for Okole Maluna, We boys m toms up." supt flowers and beautiful hula girls, etc. It really is s°' on moonlight nights, only the Army keeps me gives me any time to take advantage of all the tunities and enjoyables. I don't doubt that you all wonder about the grass shacks. Well, that's just "Tourist Bureau" baloney, 'cause there just isn't any. The only ones in captivity are those in the Bishop Museum, and one up in Manoa Valley, where Robert Louis Stevenson did his writing in the early days. It is quaint and in a truly tropical setting, for I can well imagine Robert swinging a "mean pen" up there, surrounded, as he no doubt was, by swishing hula maidens. Hula skirts, incidentally, are not really made of grass, as we've been led to believe. The native girls take long "ti" leaves, shred them into narrow strips, and then drape them somehow around the section where they shake the most, ha, ha, and then they go to work. A large percentage of Honolulu's population is in uniform, white or khaki, and how the boys, who still wear civvies are envied, when a good hot day rolls around. Informal dress prevails for all but servicemen . . . aloha shirts of wild color and still wider designs, slack trousers, sandals or barefoot, no hats, no neckties . . . my. what a life! Yes. I'm beginning to speak Hawaiian, but still have quite a ways to go, before I can keep up a conversation. The Hawaiian language is truly simple enough, but in my case, it does get rather complicated. We are Malihini's (newcomers), until we are here long enough to become an old timer, or Kamaaina, which simply means, longer than the other fellows. The white people are called Haoles. the Chinese, Pake, the Hawaiians are called Kanakas. and the Japanese are Hapani, that is their appropriate name in polite society. We're never done or finished. we're simply. Pau, or to be more emphatic, all Pau. Pilikia is a word that many a buddie works overtime— it means trouble and how some of these buck privates can get into Pilikia. A hole in your sock is a Puka, — to wear your hat at an angle, is to wear it Kaoakahi, and to have a little Al and the gals we are with, are Wahines. means a Keiki, so draw elusions on that one. ^ Honolulu is a strivings' up to date buildings. rK5' palm trees, etc., ana p department stores v- i thing that Cleveland h^l . ings comoare with tne pp are tropical in style. , has open Lanais ■ months of training pir^f ii Corps as a dive bom^ $ j I Unhurt in Battle, Injured at Rest Carlisle Barracks, Pa.—Lt.
