Un doubtedly you will meet some one who will answer with the cynic's reply: "What's happy about it?" That's one way of looking ai It. The year 1!M3 is going lo a tough year In many respects. There will be more and more shortages. Added lo the rationing of I Ires, gasoline, sugar, coffee, . meat and other items already un der administrative control, doubt less will be brought scores of articles ol food, clothing and mer chandise. We will pay the heaviest taxes ever known in the United States Victory tax, income tax. hidden taxes, automobile use tax, and other levies thai will cut deeper and deeper Into the family bankroll. We may grumble and complain about these changes, but there are few persons, If any, who will object to any real sacrifice that will In any way contribute lo the success of the war effort. Our criticism will continue, but that criticism, as In the past, will be directed at bureaucratic ineffi ciency rather than at the re quired deprivations. There will be sad news of casualties among those we love. There will undoubt edly be setbacks in our war ef fort. There will be many disap pointments, mixed with rejoicing. Allhogether, 1!M3 is going to be it hard year, particularly on the nerves and the emotions. But, on the other hand, 1!M3 can be a most happy year. It very probably will prove to be not only a turning point in the war. but the beginning of a new era of social and economic life. j We already have seen the bal ance of power in this global war swinging to I hi? allied nations. Undersecretary of War Patter son said recently: "This much can be said wllh assurance. The year l!M3 will be a fighting year (or American troops. We will be fighting In Europe and Asia and Alrica anil on the seven seas. We will seek j out the enemy wherever we can! find him not on one front or on two fronts, but on any front i where na.is and Japanese can lie engaged in combat." If the prediction of Secretary Patterson is fullilled ami (lie American soldier, sailor and ma rine, properly equipped, is given an opportunity to tight, we have every confidence that victory is ill sight. We believe the American is the Im'sI lighter in the world, and will give odils on his aliilily to best even a superior number of enemy lighters. We coiiiidcnl ly believe that II victory is not won In 111 13. the year w ill sec the struggle approaching an end, Hul the year mc enter today will bring forth many thinns that will make our live, better, bright er and happier. The greatest ad vances in science lesull fioin war, because II is under such pel iod.s of stress that scientists arc at forded the mniH'j, the tools and the opportunities lor reseati-h. while, at the same lime, they are spill 1( U nil IV 11,1 -'I'll i' "I in ti s sity. I Medical science is making le markable discoveries. New meth , oils have been developed ln : treatment of wounds to save Hum i sands from permanent disability ' New anesthetics have hern Imuid . to ease slitterlng. New drugs hae liccn discovered and developed to save lives anil s)H'cd recovery. The know ledge gained comci nine; diet will, alone, increase the normal span of lile in ytais lo come. The discoveries of medical science In the past few months doubtless, during the next decide, will save more lives than will be lost in this war. From the test tubes today are coming new plastics, new textiles, new comiounds that will ease our labor, protect our health and add comfort In our homes in years lo come. Aviation, which reached adoles cence in the last war, is maturing toduy. The future will see world wide airborne commerce. The planes of tomorrow will be a far cry from the box kite affair flown by the Wright brothers on the sands of Kilty llawk. The science of electronics Is performing miracles, which, when released from the shroud of. mili tary secrecy, will astonish all ex cept the few who have knowl edge of whut the future holds In this field. These are but a few of the revolutionary phases that will reach a peak in 1!M3; a year that promises adventure, anxiety, sus pense, Joy, sorrow, and a promise ol better living a mixture that combines to produce a Happy New Year. Editorials on New (Costinuad trnm ! l. (referring to tile Koteinlkovskl fightlngl: "The enemy is sending in special detachments TO COVER UP THE RETREAT OK HIS TROOPS." AI the present critical stage of the fighting any hint that the Germans are beginning to. RE TREAT is fascinatingly Interest ing, j THE crisis of the great battle of j southern Russia will come if and when Hitler abandons his j costly Stalingrad adventure and; starts trying to get his unities j out of the trap, whose Jaws the Russians are fighting to close on them. MEANWHILE, there comes from the Finns in the far north a report that the Russians, after a long lull, have taken the offensive between Lake Ladoga and Lake Onega, to the northeast of Leningrad. It Is significant as indicating Russian power to strike at points separated by vast distances. EVERYTHLN'O depends on Rus sian striking power. THERE Is a general theory lhat the Germans were taken by surprise in northern Africa. This writer is inclined lo doubt lhat. For weeks before we launched our African offensive, the Ger man radio was telling nervously of allied operations in thai quar ter. It was the German radio that first announced the presence of American troops in Liberia. Hays before the African blow fell, the German radio was telling of heavy allied naval concentrations at Gibraltar. 11 is a fair guess that the Ger mans had all inkling of what was coming hut were so deeply in volved in Russia they COl'LPN'f HO ANY THING AHOl'T IT. If that is true, it Is much more significant than il they were, taken completely by surprise. j KNOWING wb.-t was coming j In Africa but LACKING Ihej ability lo do anything in meet it i would mean that Hitler had his hands full to overflowing already and KNEW it. I THERE'S a little more news j from Hut nia ! The British are reported only J.ri miles from Akyah. having ad- j valued apparently about L'l) miles In tile past week. They are to ! lowing down the swampy coastal I plain liclueeii the Hay ol Bengal ; and tile Arakan range ot moon--; tains.

THIS IS to make a solemn pledge that nothing shall be left undone to win the war and to win it quickly. The Penney Company regards its more than 1600 stores, its more than 40,000 men and women associates, as a group of tremendous vitality and force in the war effort. In addition, helping shoulder to shoulder, we include the thousands of people who supply us with what we sell; who in mills and factories all over the land produce with only one thought in mind: the speeding up of the war effort. But most important of all, are the millions who are our customers. They know that no sacrifice is too great for our common cause end they make it willingly and gladly. The Penney Company's job has always been to supply typical American families (people who live simply but well) with clothing and home furnishings at substantial savings. Those American Families are now the Home Frontl It is their iob to send an ever-increasing avalanche of supplies to those who are fighting our battles on the far-flung war fronts of the world. Those American families, that Home Front, can count on us to continue our efforts to supply the good American merchandise they must have to keep fit for their great task. We will continue, unremittingly, our efforts to secure their needs at savings: Today it is more than good sense and good management to save Thrift and Savings are now an imperative duty.

He has been as signed to a fleet aerial observa tion squadron on the Atlantic coast. A former student at Look ingglass high school, he enlisted in the navy, for six years, at Riverside, California. "Those big shells really whiz around," Private First Class Ed ward Jackson, 18, son of Mr. and Mrs. George Jackson, 1147, Corey Ave., Roseburg, wrote his parents fter under .v..i: U:m("rdn:ent in the campaign in North Africa. A student at Roseburg high school, he enlisted In the army in Nov. 1941 and was sent overseas last October. His letter was writ ten from French North Africa, where, he said, he had "seen enough action to last for it while." Letters might be a nui.th old tut they were so important that soldies burned precious matches to furnish illumination by which to read the messages, reports Captain Curtis Tlgarrl, son-in-law THE MOMENT- of Mr. and Mrs. W. W. Keasey of Roseburg, who Is now in North Africa. Captain Tlgard's letters were forwarded by his wife, a former teacher in the schools at Dixonville, Garden Valley and Edenbower. He tells of giving a 44-year old girl her first piece of candy for two years. "Lots of girls here," he adds, "but they look a little peaked from under nourishment. They all want sum, and a stick of gum will buy a friend." Mrs. Tigard added a note to the letter she forwarded, indicating that she might be worried as a result of her hus band's mention of the gum-loving girls, because shortly before re ceipt of the letter she had sent him a whole carton of gum.
