Rough-On-Lice When the Allied armies occupied southern Italy they found the may- or of a village to be a former New Yorker who had been home to Italy on a visit when he was trap- ped by the war. He had a son-in- law who had been in the Italian army. "When he came home," said the father-in-law, "he had .three pounds of lice on him." This is one horror of war that is now con- trolled. A new chemical has been developed which is deadlier to lice than any other insecticide. It is a powder and one sprinkling on soldiers' clothing provides anti- louse protection for a full month. The Wrong Time And Wrong Place But for the war, comments the { Los Angeles Times, Mexico these last few months would have been one of the world's hot spots for news--and literally, The one and only mountain born in this gen- eration is rising to the atcom- paniment of volcanic fireworks , within 20 miles of that republic's capital and a meteor as big as several houses recenly fell in the State of Sinaloa. "Too bad", laments the Los Angeles paper, "the former did not pop up under the Imperial Palace in Tokyo and that the Tater didn't land on Berchtesga- en." Nuality counts most -- for that rich, satisfying flavour which only a fine quality tea yields, use.. Fliers Just Had To See Berlin Made Trip In Crippled Plane Playing Hide and Seek With Nazi Fighters He just had to see Berlin, So, when engine trouble separat- ed him from the bomber group he was escorting, 1st Lt. Charles F, Anderson, Mustang pilot of Gary, Ind, flew on alone, played hide and seek with a swarm of German fighters and returned to base safely. Anderson was about 20 miles from the German capital 'when his engine went bad. "I turned around and started for home," he related. "After I had gone about 10 minutés I began thinking what a pity I had to get that far and then miss seeing Ber- lin, * - - "1 said to myself, 'Oh, well, why not try it? So I turned around and headed into the capital all by myself. When [I thought I had reached there, I pecred down through a hole in the clouds--and there 'it was all spread out before me. It looked like Paris when we took the Forts to Le Bourget." (Incidentally his group shot down 18 fighters that day). Six Focke Wul's attacked derson over Berlin, "1 dove into the clouds," he said. "When I sneaked out again there they were. I kept repeating this but every time.I got in the open they would be lined up abreast wait- ing for me. So I just stayed in the clouds until I reached the middle of thie English channel." But Anderson's troubles were not over vet. His air speed indicator had been knocked out and he did not know how fast he was going. "I knew I was going to have to have someone help me down." About that time a fellow pilot, 1st Lt. WW. Williken, Rockport, Mo, came along, noticed Anderson's plight and coached him in prepar- ation for landing. "When I heard Williken's voice, I knew I did not have Anderson said. "He circled twice before he caught up with me be- cause | was coming in too fast. He - said 'Now your air speed in 130. Then after a slight pause he said, 'It's 120. Then '110. Pull your throttle back. You are straight into the wind. You shouldn't have any trouble landing. "I didn't but [ had only a few gallons of gasoline leit." Canadian Troops Inspected By King An- . Thousands of Canadian invasion troops were inspected recently by the King, who walked ncarly four miles through long lines of soldiers drawn up on both sides of roads in the big second-front camps. Wearing field marshal's uniform, His Majesty spent 11% hours with the troops. Several times he halted to speak to officers, privates and non-com- _missioned officers, and as he passed "through the lines of different regi- ments each commanding officer walked beside him and told of the unit's preparations for the attack on Europe. The King questioned officers about weapons and training, and showed the keenest interest, in de- tails of their work. As he finished his walk through each group the troops gave three cheers and waved their caps in the air. : ; He ate at a Canadian head- quarters with Lt.-Gen, Stuart, acting Canadian army com- mander, Maj.-Gen, P. J. Montague, senior officer at Canadian military headquarters in London, and sev- eral high-ranking~ Canadian inva- sion commanders whose names. are still secret. Despite Nazi Snipers Officer Gets Lunch Lieut. L. IV. Edwards, of Reigate, Surrey, is a fast man when it comes to thinking, about food. One day before dawn he crawled to the crest of a hill dragging a telephone with him, and when day- light came he relayed information back fo his artillery unit that re- sulted in seven direct hits on a big house which the Germans held and which was. causing serious trouble to the forces on the beachhead. After the house was destroyed, Edwards tried to get back to his original position, but was pinned down by a German = sniper and forced to lie there until noon with no chance of getting back in time for lunch, Edwards solved the difficulty by picking upi the telephone and or- dering lunch, The lunch, with an additional 30 feet of wite, was at- tached to the telephone line and . Edwards hauled in his lunch hand over hand, maintaining. communi- cation with his unit at the same itmé; . Later in the afternoon ft began to raift and when Edwards saw the sniper remove the telescopic sights from his rifle and begin to wipe them off; he: made: a break for it: and won, to worry," Kenneth: % By VICTOR ROSSEAU DANA CHAPTER XXIV There sounded the creak of sad- dles, the scamper of horses hoofs, Then came Coggswell's sudden challenge out of the dark: "Sky high, the pair of Your covered!" : Panic-stricken, Lonergan twisted this way and that, as he recognized the sherifis voice. Now, in the faint starlight, he could see two mounted figures looming up out of the scrub close at hand, "Beat it!" hissed Curran in his ear. "Theyre on the wrong side of the gully!" Dave and Coggswell had come up on the other side of the ravine which, at this point near its blind end, was little more than a coulee. It was, however, too wide to set a youl horse to jump it. Next instant Cur-~ ran was on his knees and firing at the two mounted figures. Dave felt a slug thump into his saddlehorn. He emptied his gun at the flashes, and heard a yelp of pain. He saw the other figure rac- ing away, diml, outlined against th. sky. Then Curran was follow- ing, bending almost double, weav- ing in and out of the scrub, with his hand clapped to his ear. "Git Miss Lois, Bruce. I'll handle this pair!" the sheriff shouted, and he raced his horse around the blind end of the gully. ~ * - * Dave, cramming fresh cartridges into his gun, saw the two weaving figures attempting to mount two of the group of horses that were clus- tered together rear the cabin en- trance. Coggswell was almost upon them, his gun blazing. There came a single shot in return, then the thump and clatter of hoofs, and one of the pair was racing along the trail, leaning flat upon his horse's neck. This was Curran, making his get- away at top speed, while Coggswell was struggling with Lonergan, Dave raced his stallion to the sl eriff's side. ! "We'll git the other, Bruce," said Coggswell, "See if Miss Lois is in the cabin." Dave required no third invita- tion. He dashed into the shack The candles were gutfering on the table in the outer room, but the room was empty. But in the small- er room Dave saw a little figure gagged and bound. "Lois! His voice went out in a cry of fury. He ran to her side, slit the gag with his jackknife. "Lois! Lois!" he whispered. "They ain't harmed yuh, honey girl?" * * * She tried to speak, but gould only reach up for Dave's neck. He bent to covered her face with kisses. "They ain't harmed yuh?" "No," said Lois in the faintest whisper. "I'm all right, Dave," Dave swung about as the sheriff entered the cabin with his prison- er. "I got her, sheriff, he called. "They ain't harmed her. Who was the other coyote, Lois?" "Curran!" Lois' voice was just audible, "Yeah, Curran,' said the sheriff grimly. "I reckernized him. Dun- no yet who was shot, but I'll know soon. Yuh best come through Lon- ergan," he continued. "No use spiutterin like "a trapped cat. There's too mich evidence against yuh. And I'm stayin' here tifl yuh talk" : { Longergan glared at his captor, then seemed to wilt. "Coggswell, « I'll talk--1I'll talk to yon," he said, "I'l talk when we're alone, Get me?" . "No difficulty about that, said Lonergan. "Bruce, s'pose yult take Miss Lois back to her .cabin on yore horse. She'll. be feelin' bet- te: there, and I'll see yuh there before the night's through." * * . . Dave picked the girt up in his arms and carried her to where Black Dawn was standing. He raised her into the saddle and swung up behind her, "Dave, they shot Mr, Ferris," whispered Lois shuddering. "I heard the shot. They trapped him here." "Ferris?" Dave cried, He pulled Black Dawn around and rode up to the cabin door. "Sheriff, Lois says it was Ferris that they shot just now." ' "Yeah," came the sheriff's grim voice, "Mr. Lonergan's just told me that. I'll be seen' yuh later at* the Hooker cabin, "Bruce. Keep yore eyes peeled for Pedro." Dave turned the black and rode off along the gully again. They rode through the canyons and were approaching the thick undergrowth at back of Hooker's cabin. Dave leaned forward. "We're home, Lois, darlirg." he whispered. "And rt looks as if all 'our troubles was just about over." And as the words leit his mouth, there came "the crack-crack-crack of six-guns from a clump of scrub to the left, » x Black Dawn leaped convulsively. A bullet whipped Dave's hat around on his head. Another pas- sed between the reins, searing his knuckles. Black Dawn's legs bent under him, The horse was going down. "We got the coyote!" yelled Curran exultantly out of the scrub. A second man ran forward, and Dave recognized the Mexican, Pe- «dro. But Dave was already on' his feet, and had nulled Lois to the ground. His gun belched answer, Pedro howled as the bullets caught him in the chest and abdomen. Then he flattered out, his scream of death cut short, and dropped al- most beneath the staggering stal_ lion. As he fell, Dave leaped to one sid: and emptied his gun into the thicket from which the flashes had come. Two wild shots from Cur- ran answered him, -then came the audible click of the hammer upon an empty cartridge. Dave was on kis feet again and rushing forward. With a vile curse, Curran wheeled his horse and raced through the scrub toward the Hooker cabin, Dave was .10 more than twenty yards behind him when Curran reached the open, and he had al- ready jammed fresh cartridges into his. cylinder. He saw Curran work- ing frantically with his gun, while hi. horse, frightened by the sound 'of the discharges, reared wildly. almost unseating him. * * a Yelling: obs..enely, Curran spur- red his horse and dashed across the:mesa, and'a.moment later Dave could hear: him forcing his mount down the steep side. He sent a last shot after him and 5 uster bombs: fi - to! broken open, sca inc ries like matchsticks. bomb, lower right, broke shortly alter photo was snapped, FIRE RAINS ON GERMANY. ' sry FAL Dr.Cha ses N ran back to Lois. She was stand- ing beside Black Dawn, who was on his feet. again, "Lois, yuh ain't hit?" Dave shout- ed. "No, no! Did he hit you, Dave?" "Nary nick, But he hit Black Dawn' Dave eried, He had heard the bullet thud into the stallion's body Dave ran his hand along the flank, and felt | the blood' dripping from the shoul- der. With his fingers he traced the course of the wound, It ranged up- ward. Suddenly he felt the bullet just beneath the skin. It had been deflected by the shoulder bone, and seemed to have inflicted only a slight, glancing wound, Dave. leaped into the saddle and gripped the horse with his knees. Black Dawn responded with his usual gait, though he was quivering from head to foot. It was clear that neither bone nor sinew had been seriously injured. (Continued Next Week) Briton Commends Canadian Farmer Ex-Minister of Agriculture Says Britain Could Learn Much From Our Farmers Lord De La Warr, former leader of the House of Lords and ex-min- ister® of agriculture who has just returned to England from Canada, told the guild of agricultural jour- nalists that British farmers could learn a great deal from Canadian farmers. : The Canadian people as well as the British people, he said, do not realize how great a contribution the Canadian farmer has made in the war. ; "Canadian farms have lost more . than 400,000 men but production has increased 45 per cent. It speaks eloquently for the immensity of the war effort of the individual farmer, his wife and his family." Discussing farming on the praries he said: "Farmers are tackling dif- ficult problems of deterioration of the land with vision and courage, through changing methods of ag- riculture, irrigation and the intro- duction of mixed farming." J He had high praise for Canadian stock breeders.

Control Of Cancer © Shown In Films Following the trend toward visual education the Ontario Branch of the Canadian Society for the Control of Cancer is pure chasing moving picture films deal- ing with the control and carly treatment of cancer which wilk be available upon application to the Society, at 24 Bloor Street, East, Toronto, to organizations, clubs, churches, or any other interested group throughout the Province of Ontario. The latest available statistics on cancer dcaths in Canada quote over 13,600 deaths a year from this disease throughout the Domine ion," This number is topped only by heart diseases in the death dealing afflictions of the human race. Approximately 5,000 of the 13,600 deaths from cancer occur in_ Ontario. The Canadian Society for the Control of Cancer hopes to reduce this. high dcath rate th ough the use of the new films, lectures, talks and continued educa- , tional material sent out to the public emphasizing that early can- cer can be cured.
