‘Oh, So Very Tired’

A FEW YARDS AWAY soldiers dug industriously, Pvt. Jose Rodriguez, San Rafael, N. M., and Pvt. Richard Santos, San Antonio, Tex. I thought of the rich warmth of their southwest—and here they chopped through the snow and frost, and the cold crept across the hillside. ““I think we keep not too warm,” Jose observed. “But our machine-gun command is in the valley. We get hay and three branches for cover, “We fix.” All through the forest the men dug in. Some used shelter-halfs “Stretched overhead, with the. branches set to keep off the slanting snow, Tanks poked their ugly noses from the edge of the forest, tank destroyer guns were camouflaged with their crews .in holes around them. Fires burned hither and yon, the men were setting cans of food close to them, then eating the hot rations with spoons. Along the road came the 30 Jerry prisoners we had seen captured earlier in the day. They carried three wounded comrades and one American. Behind them walked a dazed and blackened American, who had been blown down but had miraculously escaped wounds, when a mortar shell landed five feet from him. Down the hillside and across the clearing came a company just relieved. They hadn't shaved for days. The snow clung to their overcoats. Their clothes were wet and dirty, Their eyes were tired—oh, so very tired, and they stumbled silently, looking at nothing, talking to no one.

While we're on the subject of birds, here's a suggestion for Parks Superintendent Paul V, Brown on how to get rid of the downtown pigeons. The suggestion: Buy an autogyro and fly it around the downtown buildings for a few days. That would soon drive the pigeons to distraction— and other haunts. An army autogyro flew low over downtown buildings about 4 p. m. Wednesday, circling the courthouse, statehouse and other buildings several times. The noise of the motor and the whir of the rotors. drove the pigeons nutty, They flew "every which way in terror. Another half hour of it, and they'd have taken off for China, which would be a good idea. . . . Speaking of pigeons, an American Medical Association news bulletin received here entitles its leading article: “Case of ornithosis that was traced to pigeons reported by a Wisconsin doctor.” The doctor says he has evidence that hyman ornithosis, a disease contracted from pigeons and similar to psittacosis or parrot fever, is more prevalent than is commonly believed. He adds that this disease carried by pigeons “may be present in a-fairly high percentage of the recently increasing number of cases diagnosed as virus pneumonia.” Get busy,

Pale Green Sir!

AN INDIANAPOLIS, ear, nose and throat specialist who had occasion to correspond with a fellow craftsman in Brazil (South America—not Indiana) had his letter written in Spanish, not knowing that the Brazilians speak Portuguese. In due time, back came a reply, which opened with the salutation: “Presado Colegio.” Doc called in his Spanish interpreter. She took one look, then began looking baffled. Said she: “Why, instead of ‘Dear Sir,’ in Spanish this ¢alls you, ‘Pale Green College’.” The rest of the letter was just as incomprehensible. Finally, suspecting the language might be Portuguese, the crafty interpreter obtained a Portuguese‘English dictionary, and the puzzle was solved. In Portuguese, “Presado Colegio” was found to mean: “Honored Colleague.” And another international crisis. was- averted. :

Strategical Question

A WARPLANE of any type is a fragile, expensive weapon. Its"speed and facility of movement logically Indicate that it is best fitted for use against supply lines, munition dumps and munition producing facilities. : Prior to the break-through of the last Nazi offensive, they must have “been concentrating men and equipment for at least a week:or so. Certainly we know that Old Man Weather dealt-the Heinies an extra ace with a prolonged dose of bad flying conditions. But prior to the start of the break-through, what missions had been assigned to our overwhelming airpower? Had it been detailed to work against enemy combat forces or had it been assigned the mission of hammering the Nazis’ supply lines out of shape? This is strictly a strategical question which can be answered only after the war. As soon as the Nazi offensive was under way, we immediately learned that 2000 to 3000 allied planes were hammering the Nazi supply ines. But not until then. This by no(means is intended to be critical, because all the‘Yacts are not at our disposal. This only represents what airmen are talking about.

SECOND SECTION ID YOU KNOW? Philippines Foxes Smell

By. FREDERICK C. OTHMAN United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Jan. 12.—The Philippine islands are noted for foxes that smell like skunks.

A few years back a Filipino who didn't belieye all he read in books counted them again. His tally was 7081. That's official. . These islands are populated by people who speak 82 different

languages, hate Japs, and are shaken gently at frequent intervals by-earthquakes.

While many Filipinos conduct placer mining operations with coconut shells, few grow rich. The sap from the shoots of the coconut, tree is known as tuba and is consumed as soda pop.

The Filipinos guard against this unless, of course, they are in the vinegar business. ” ” » FROM THE nipa plant they make hats, houses in 30 minutes per house, and ginebra.

There aren't many of those smelly foxes. And every one of the 7981 islands is perfumed by flowers too numerous to mention here. The Filipinos eat rice and fish. There is plenty of both. Their rice comes in white (Chinese restaurant variety) and/in red, blue, yellow, deep purple and black. Each variety has a different flavor. » » » 3 WHEN A Filipino goes fishing, he has a chance of hauling in any one of 20,000 different varieties.

SO WHAT NEXT? Pipe Tobaccos May Disappear With Cigarets

By GWEN MORGAN United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Jan. 12.—Pipe smokers, who so far have largely escaped the plight of their cig-aret-smoking brothers, may soon be joining them in line: at tobacco counters.

There have been mounting signs of scarcity of many popular brands of pipe tobacco. Tobacco industry spokesmen, here to°seek price increases, said today that the shortage would become severe -by March, ‘ WF 3 JOHN R. MURPHY, general manager of smaller tobacco manufacturers, said pipe tobacco makers were producing either at a loss or at so ‘little profit it was impossible for them to continue. ss x =

_ THE OPA has promised to make a study to see if price increases are warranted, but Murphy was not hopeful of the outcome. “You see,” he said, “OPA insists on considering pipe tobacco pro- - duction as a part of the cigaret industry, which js making money, and not as a separate business which is not.” . OPA’s comment was that the smoking tobacco men wanted “relief without delay” whereas it was not OPA policy to permit action until - investigations "were completed. » » » MURPHY intimated that if things keep on the way they are pipe smokers will have to turn to snuff and chewing tobacco. He said the chewing tobacco industry was in good position to take over the ex-pipe and ex-cigaret smokers because it had been granted price relief. “The happiest men nowadays,” he added, “are manufacturers of spittoons.”

It takes a while to get transportation: these days, even in an emergency, so Mary Anne was born before her father a n d mother could get to the maternity ward.
