THANKS VERY MUCH, BROTHERS POYNTER:

You suggested that we not forget a tribute on Mother's Day—You've written the finest tribute we can think of-—second only to the tribute ever present in your hearts—too deep and too tender for utterance. Without the spiritual lift, without those poignant memories of home—and of happier days to be re-lived—the whole struggle and sacrifice would soem to be dreary and pointless! This postscript of yours speaks for all boys in service—it is an index of what will be the over-all thought on Mother's Day—as the Sons are poised and prepared for the Great Day of Decision~—to make those longings come true. A profound salute to you all! L STRAUSS & CO, INC

Speaking of the weather, we had a dry Sunday Nz last week for a change. 4 . . . Not a single drop = of rain. That upset the old superstition that if it rains on Easter Sunday, it will rain for seven straight Sundays. . It stopped a} three hd this year. . . . Df. \ Herman G. Morgan, the\ health board secretary, warns us to expect a big crop of mosquitoes this summer, unless the weather gets good and dry and dries up ponds and other mosquito breeding places... . . Worst of it, he says, is that the pesky insects may spread. malaria and similar diseases carried home by service men who have been serving in the tropics. . . . The city garbage department is convinced that summer is just around the corner. . . . So the summer schedule for collection of garbage and ashes went into effect this week.

Checks on Race Fans—

THE OPA HAS announced it is checking on the Hoosier motorists whose license plates were spotted by investigators at the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs last Saturday. . . .
