SOMEWHERE IN AUSTRALIA, July 13.—That historic one-armed paper hanger who was supposed to be such a busy guy, should try

running a Red Cross service men’s club in an Australian advanced base like Port Hush-Hush here, where I hold forth. He'd learn what “busy” means. My heart sank when I saw the old, dirty and worn-down hotel that we were to take over. The entire kitchen was a nightmare, and after I saw that remodeling job through, I was practically a master carpenter, concrete mixer, plumber and what have you. We scrubbed and painted the whole place. tore out partitions, put in bright furniture, more lights (we pamper and oil our generator every three hours, pray over it every 15 minutes) and gay draperies and managed to make our Cobweb Castle into quite a nice place. My chief pride is the patio, which is cool and now newly planted with ferns, palms and hanging Phyllis Pedigo orchids. We are very small here, but we manage a : home atmosphere which the boys like and return | to on every occasion. They feel so much at home that they raid the | ice-box at night. Of course we never let them know that the ice- | box is loaded with goodies ahead of time on purpose. It would spoil their fun. I make lemen and chocolate cream pies and devil's food cakes for | the soldiers to cut at night. You should see them piling in after shows and dances for pie and cake before catching their trucks back to camp. And it is not unusual for a plane to travel a roundabout I also make pies

and cakes to send to hospitals. = ” 2 s = ”

YES, WE'RE BUSY. From first aid, which I render many times a day, our work ranges to sewing on buttons, finding that last hamburger, giving advice to some GI who thinks his best girl has forsaken | him, and writing hundreds of letters to mothers, telling them that I've had their sons as guests at the club. We have a snack bar at the hotel where we serve the only pasteurized milk and ice cream for miles around, hamburgers, cheeseburgers, candy, fruit drinks and ice cream sodas. A In addition to all the foregoing, the variety of Red Cross services

Then there are the frequent occasions when I make contracts for wood and garbage hauling or act as night watchman, showing GI's to their rooms at 3 a. m. ‘ ” » ” n y » AND I HAVEN'T EVEN MENTIONED being zoo keeper. My pets include small and large kangaroos, wallabies, goats, snakes (I was given a baby python, but sent it away). I've also been given dogs of many breeds (and no breed), cats, complete with families, and I once acquired a koala beer, which T was not allowed to keep. We never know what will break next. One recent event not covered in the handbook was the stage management of a wedding. One day, with much fluttering of eyelaches, Mary Servos, our Australian downstairs maid, shyly told me that she wanted to be married. I put on my most motherly air and asked if she loved Joe. Well, she admitted she liked him. I insisted that she bring him around for introductions, which she did. Cpl. Joe Normyole appeared to be a fine young man, from Melbourne, so I approved and gave her my blessing. Mary had never been away from home before, and when I learned that she intended to travel on the train in a white satin dress, wearing a pink hat with orange flowers, I decided I should take a hand. It turned out that everyone at the club had a hand. o n on J n N A LOVELY WEDDING DRESS was borrowed, complete with tulle veil, and we three Red Cross workers gave her a going-away dress as our contribution. I also undertook the reception, which was a grand success. > Many customs here are different from ours, one being that the bridegroom never gives the bride a bouquet. She always carries artificial flowers which have been handed down in the family as heira oe { looms. But I decided that we would have a real wedding bouquet with or white satin streamers and everything, The American-style posy made a big hit, They even cut the cake in American stvle, with the bridegroom helping the bride wield the carving knife. One of the Yank soldiers present wanted to cut the cake with his big knife, which they call a Jap Tickler, but this idea was promptly vetoed. I have supervised quite a number of wedding suppers and luncheons for Americans, but I believe this is the first time an Australian couple had a strictly American-plan wedding in a Red Cross service club.
