When the conversation a- mong the guests Is centred about one person who Ig present and Is so complimentary that it U real- ly embarrasolng, what should a person do? Anwer 1. The decorations of tut in- formal tea are not so elaborate And the refreshments are more simple.

Poor Shots A United States merchant skip- per was preparing to send a mes- sage to the' Ilritixh corvette Flonoyiucklc lyinR noi\r him in a Hussion port recently, when 15 German dive-bombers attacked the harbor, shaking his vessel with bombs, The bomber* were gone and the ship was still trembling, Brit- ish sources said, when the cap- tain began his message, concern- ing purely routine mutters. Not until the very end diil hi- tfike notice of the raid. "The I'aporhaiiKer's boyn," he fluid tersely. "Are sure rotten bombardiers."

'Hilt llu WOtult'i f'll i umglr," Jap Plans Fail In Indo-China Anti-Japanese Attitude Com mon Among The Natives The Office- of War Information reports that a Japanese campaign to win the allegiance of French Indo-China natives had failed and that "an anti-Japanese spirit is common among the people." For a short time after the Japa- nese troops arrived, OWI said, "there were indications that the newcomers were not unwelcome to the native population. The Japanese made overtures to the Annamite circles with separatist tendencies and played up to the natives by paying double rickshaw fares and distributing free cigar- ettes." Partial Conscription The natives' first impression ot the Japanese was "nullified as ad- ditional troops arrived," OWI said. "Large numbers of natives have been subjected to partial conscrip- tion. They receive from the Japa- nese a minimum wage for double the work asked by French con- IructorB. Tralnloads of natives have been moved from the North to the South without any con- sideration for family ties. Natives were inadequately housed, and jammed into military trucks to points wher the Japanese wished work to be done. "At one occasion ;U Haiphong, the Japanese authorities, unable to get more than a half train load of volunteer labor, sent out a military bnnd to ]>ly popular airs. Soon a crowd of listeners gathered around the band. Japan- ese troops formed a cordon around the crowd, and allowed the natives out one by one. Those who could not prove they were regularly employed worn marched off under guard to the train. A high French official stopped the train before it reached Hanoi, and after a lengthy argument the Japanese took the train hack to Haiphong and released their pris- oners." The OWI did not dim-lose, the of its information. The Unknown One It is the pilot instructor who takes the fledgling nir student and (fives him his first dual time In the air, nurses him into con- fidence in his ship, and eventually .sends him off solo- with a |>:il on the Imi'k, and a cold lump of ice in his own heart.

What Science Is Doing ALCOHOL FROM ORANGES A process for the production of 190-proof alcohol from waste cit- rus fruit for the manufacture of " explosives has been perfected at the United States Citrus Products Laboratory in Winter Haven, Fl. The cost of producing one gallon of alcohol from pressed juices will be approximately two-thirds of the cost of producing one gallon of alcohol from blackstrap molasses. Citrus pulp and peel waste from the Florida canneries is usually pressed out to supply annually 35,000 tons of dried pulp cattle feed and 61,000,000 gallons of "juice." Because the citrus rinds and pulp are mixed with lime be- fore pressure is applied, the juice is unfit for human consumption and is a pollution nuisance. Front twenty-five gallons f this waste juice one gallon of 190-proof al- cohol, and about twelve and a half ounces of dry yenst can be made. OLD RUBBER If you think that the bit* of old rubber that you cun contri- bute can make little difference in winning the war, consider these facts: An outworn tiro can pro- vied us much as sixteen pounds of reclaimed rubber and n inner tube about two and five-tenths pounds. Fifty feet of garden hose yield twenty pounds of scrap and a single pair of four-buckle all- rubber arctics three pounds. There is a pound of rubber in every foot of rubber floor matting and another pound in nn old hot- water bottle. In most cases, re- claim constitutes from -0 to 40 per cent of the rubber articles thai we use.

Adam Wakcnshaw was a dead- end kid in a dingy industrial dis- trict of Newcastle and the most troublesome of a widowed moth- er's 13 sons. Even when he grew up and went off to war she told htm bluntly that she would not miss him. Rut today his drab dwelling is one of the proudest homes in Eng- land for the Ix>rd Mayor of New- castle and his entourage called there to pay respects to Adam's widow and their three-year-old daughter. The Lord Mayor told the widow she could find solace in her loss in the knowledge that Adam died in gallantry so outstanding that he won the Victoria Cross, the Empire's most coveted war de- coration. Adam was with the Durham Light Infantry at Matruh in the Libyan desert. In one of his let- ters home- he wrote his mother: "I am sorry for all the trouble 1 caused you . . You said you would not miss me but you will." The enemy attacked his anti- tank gun. All Adam's crew mates were killed or wounded. Adam's own left arm was almost blown off but, one-handed, he loaded and fired his gun five times. Wounded again, he dragged himself buck to fire still another time when a direct hit smashed the gun and killed him. What probably would have given Adam satisfaction equal to his decoration was his mother's forgiveness. "He was a wild lad," she said, "but there never was any real harm in him. "Ho was right when he said 1 would miss him." Chinese Casualties Total 6,000,000 China lias lo.it about t>, 000, 000 in killed and wounded ngninst Japan's 12,500,000 in five years of war, Pr. George Yeh, London di- rector of the Chinese Informa- tion Ministry, estimated recently. He put Chinese army strength now at roughly 18,000.000 men und said a 20 percent, bigger har- vest than in 1!M1 hud averted any food problem. In the year up to last June, he said, ilic Chinese had fought 5,580 engagements. MF 1 PLUG SMOKING TOBACCO Britain Bombed With New Type^Of Plane German sub-strat<fsphere bom- bers equipped with supercharged Diesel motors, have made several daylight attacks on Great Britain recently, it is announced. The first such bombings nf Brit- ain were made from altitudes of nearly 40,000 feet by modified Junkers 86-P's fitted with experi- mental pressure cabins. This type of plane is the third new weapon in the German air arsenal for daylierht forays against strongly defended British ports and cities. The others are the four-motored Heinkel 177 which carries eight tons of bombs equalling the capacity of Britain's biggest machines and the bomb-carrying Focke-Wulf 190's, the special function of which is to speed over coastal targets at low altitudes and get away fast before the speedy British Spitfires can reach them. The F.W.-190's are prim- arly fighters. Huns Lose 60,000 Flyers In Russia The Moscow radio has announc- ed that the German air force has lost 60.000 men in Russia.
