O. Little. He was rdui cated for the ministry and held several pastorates before engaging in school work. He followed that profession for many y.-ars and was successful. Poor health forced his ' retirement a few years ago and he . served several years as a justice-of-the-peace. in all his work he was sincere and conscientious and hie many friends in this city and county are grieved liy his passing. -0 Boys and girls 14 to lit can play an Important part In the war effort, but their labors must not be exploited. Gov. 8< hrlcker warned this week as he announced a program aimed at casing the labor shortage in the state. After a study of a report made by this committee on Child Delinquency and Employment, he announced steps would be tak* n Immediately to educate employers and the public on all state and federal regulations concerning employment of minors, and at the same time the state division of labor is to begin surveys to determine what jobs boy* and girls can fill. Gov. Schrlcker stressed that the war emergency can not be used as an excuse to suspend any of the laws designed to curb child labor evils. He has directed the division of labor to make a survey to determine what [Kists boys and girls can till "without danger to their heal'k 6i to their morals" and in accordance with existing regulations. In many cases, the governor believes, a boy or girl will be able to replace an older worker not now working at hie highest skill. The Quinine Box: Refuting Axis-Inspired ruipors that the Cnited States is short of quinine to safeguard our troops fighting In the South Pacific, on the jump-off from North Africa and on other tropical fronts. Norman Taylor writes in the July issue ot Scientific Monthly that: "Unde Sam has been accused of bungling in getting crude rubber out of the Far East, but a handful of army and navy doctors, remembering the fever-ridden days of building the Panama Canal and the many tropical fronts of World War 11, has accumulated from Java the largest stockpile of quinine ever seen in this country. While Its amount Is a military secret, and ita whereabout even more so. those tons of quinine will stand guard over thousands of American txjyskeeping them from serious malaria —as deadly as enemy bull-ta.” Fortunately, this foresight in acquiring quinine was matched. 40 years ago. by the persistence of our ally, the Dutch in growing in the face of ridicule huge quantities of cinchona trees in Java. The genus . cinchona, a first cousin to coffee, turn bark from whkh quinine, one of four valuable alkaloids. Is ex- , traded. When Jara fell to the Japs about a year ago. a flood of bad second guesses and tumors swept the U. 8.. because over 90 percent •’ the world's quinine supply for control of malaria came from the Netherlands Indi-a However. American accumulation of quinine was begun before Pearl Harbor so that Yanks fighting on scattered tropical fronts would have ample quinine to guard their health in malarial attacks. Although qeinin.

SYNOPSIS Mary Norman, attractive widow and successful decorator, was delighted when Judith Lambert, daughter of an old friend, dropped in to ate her. Judith, whose home is in California, is en route to Maine for the summer. The families had been neighbors before {udith’s father died. She asked for lary’s son. Dr. Matthew Norman, adding, "He was my first cruahbut he didn't know I existed.” Mary told her that Matthew plans to have his own office soon. Judith promised to stop off again on her way home in the fall Aa Mary dressed for dinner with Lynn Mortimer, long her devoted friend, she indulged in a little mental matchmaking anent Judith and her son . . . For twenty years Lynn’s wife has been a mental patient and, for almost as long, he has been in love with Mary. Although they never discussed it. Mary is aware of his love bat feels there ie no room in her busy life tor anyone except Matthew. Leter, she ie completely floored when her eon telegraphs that he and Irene Murray, a nurse, have just been married. Mary had met Irene but never suspected Matthew's interest was other than platonic. She wires the newlyweds her congratulations but is too upset to sleep. f • t CHAPTER FIVE ‘ Lying there, Mary tried to remember all she knew of Irene Murray. She had graduated from the hospital a year ago. She was, Matthew said, an excellent nurse, eonscientious and intelligent She eame of substantial stock, in the West, and had had two years of college before entering training. She was small 'and very fair, with large sober blue eyes and a controlled red mouth. Too controlled, Mary had thought fleetingly, for a girl of her age. She had met her several times: Matthew brought her to dinner or had eome 1a with her after taking her some where to dine. She was not at all like the other girls with whom he had amused himself while in college. or at medical school ... those girls, his remembered, had been bright as parrots, and aa shrill, with flyaway hair, too much make-up. too high heels. Seductive girls, alike as two peas in a pod. some of them clinging, some overindependent. some a little stupid, end others too wise. But she hadn't worried. Matthew had said, his jaw very like her own in masculine mold. “Don't you fret, mother, I've a tong war to go yet and l*m not tying myself down ... Beeid. *, I haven't met the girl yet with whom I'd want to spend the rest of my Ufe.** A sophisticated young man, Matthew. Perhaps it was in a measure her fault, she thought, as they had been eo much together, and she had never treated him as if he Were X ehild. But if a fault, a good om.
