"All new applications are care fully reviewed by the county committee to determine if all pos- iibllltlcs of adequate financing through local banks or other rcdlt agencies have been ex hausted," suid Thomas, "If the, : application is approved, the smallest loan consistent with maximum war food production Is recommended to conserve re maining funds." . i As a second step 1 In placing FSA funds where they are most needed,' the financial status and progress of all present borrow ers in the program throe years or more have been reviewed to dotermjne If they have; become eligible for bank credit, It was explained.

A sentry walkinjr a lonesome post one night recently heard a flight noise behind him. He whirled and issued his challenge, but obtained no response. But each time he resumed his march, he could hear sounds, magnified by the quietude of the surrounding darkness. Finally, reaching a street lamp, he passed through the pircle of light and placed himself in concealment. As he waited, a small doe came into view, timidly following his trail. She seemed to be as lonely as the sentry, and within a few minutes they had struck up a friendship. After he had been relieved of ,duty, the sentry fftpk her to the troop area and fed her. Under the stimulus pf attention and good food she has become a favored pet and answers to the name of "Susie." Grantland Rice, noted sports writer, tc' s a strange tale in one of his current syndicate releases. The U. S. marines had just effected a desperate landing on fulagi island. Scout ing parties were finding tough sledding in the jungle. Japs surrounded the beachhead. Yet, within sound pf the battle, awaiting their call to join the fighting, a group ,of marines were playing a freak game of baseball on the beach. With a dead branch for a bat, they .were going through all the motions of a big league ball game. They had no baseball, but the pitcher, catcher and batter went through the mptjons, while ail umpire called imaginary balls and strikes. The baseruuners ran the bases, and a near riot occurred on a close decision at home plate, with a frenzied, partisan force of "bleacherites" joining in the play-acting. We cannot help comparing these incidents with the gib berish recently credited to some, long-haired psychiatrists, declaring that our boys, will return bloodthirsty, sadistic, without respect for law and order and bent only upon mur der and mayhem. Bosh ! They'll come home just the same, good, clean kids they were when they left. A little older, much wiser, mature beyond their years, perhaps, and with a look in their eyes that shows extreme confidence in themselves. They may, for a time, be a little rough in play and speech ; they're used to playing rough. On the other hand, they'll be more polite, better disciplined, more thoughtful, and, above all, more neat and prdcrly than when they left. But fundamentally they'll be the same, wholesome young men they were when they were snatched out of peaceful civilian pursuits to enter lives of danger, death and bloodshed. The prevalence of mascots jn the armed forces proyides officers wjth one of the major problems of the war. Every stray dog is given a home. Goats, lion cubs, bears, coyotes, the ever-prps.et racoon, and every animal that can be tamed is adopted as a pet. The soldiers overseas' seldom cat t.he hard candy and the chocolate bars with which they, are furnished. The candy goes to the kiddies who (ire quick (.0 cultivate the friendship of the soldiers. Many a dirty 'Arhb and Jtalian urchin is getting his first taste of sweets in many years because of the natural allcctjpn of every American for unfortunate youngsters. Boys wip lavish affection upon dumb animals, who sacri fice their sweets, and often their rations, to feed the chil dren and the hungry civilians around them, who can play a make-believe baseball game on sands within reach of sniper bullets are not coming home hard-boiled, cruel or defiant of law and order. Just as nature walls off an infected spot on a lung with protective calcium cells, so wjll the hideous recollection of war be interned i" a corner of the mind. You will not fjnd the veteran of this war inclined to talk of what he has seen and experienced, upless the incident be humorous. You perhaps will never know all that he has gone through. Even to his mind much of the horror will eventually seem like a hideous but hazy nightmare to be recalled less and less frequently. Though he may be today the best trained fighting man in the world, able to whip anything the enemy has to offer, he will discard at the quickest possible moment both the material and mental accoutermcnts of war, and will be the boy who loves pets, and children, and baseball, and Mom's apple pie, 1944. fj...L i-u . . fy I R.
