OUT OF THE WOODS By JIM STEVENS ('Its mortified I am at all the big talk that's been snortin over the radio of late, on how ever thin is to be rigged up so lovely when peace comes," said Larrity the Bullcock, as he paused in his chores to rest and ruminate on the shady side of a Camp 3 bunk- house. "It's not that I'm wan of thim soulless min who get wrothy over talk of anythin' on peace till We win the war oh no! What I feel is more sorrow than anger, and it is account of the neglect of the philosophic perfession of bullcookuv in all that's gabbed and writ on post-war plannin' "I mane it, sir. If the country is bound to indulge in daydreams over plannin for peace, bullcooks must be considered. That is, if we're to be practical. I'll tell you whi First off,' we should have a gov'ment projeck, with a hun 'erd million or so to start it off, and with a proper adminlstrat- : or, coordinators, expediters and perfessers. The first chore of thim all should be to undertake the enlistment and trainin' of young min of good will, medi tative mind, philosophic sperit and. of course with flat feet, cock eyes, or other such im pidimints to military service for the post-war plan army, to have thim . ripe and ready to pitch hi en peace when the war's done. The war would not be the con cern of- these thoughtful lads, but the war must not' be ignored. We cannot have our apprentice plan- and recruit philosophers meditatin' idly. So, to the p'int: "Thrue philosophy iver thrives and . flourishes . in . the forest So our post-war boys should be train ed in the woods, and have jobs in the woods while in trainin. Loggin has become .as much of a war job as rriakin steel or buildin' snips. However, sucn work as faHin timber, settin' chokers, and drivin' catsTiiver does and niver can ingender meditation it is all inimical to the like. But, ah, bull- cookin'J Bullcookin in the woods, sir, is the most philosophic way life anywan could conjure and bullcookin is essential to war lggm. You cannot imagine crew of loggers without a bull- cook. -There Is little In the (asks pt a bullcook to Intrude In his tmediUtiona as he goes about his day. He has spare time to - read nwrnnuni K,.11.Hn. ..j sjvfc Hcit ' War Stamps 1 i :VV special, program here today and to bend an ear to the raddio. The modest and simple chores of bullcookin' are not of a kind . to inflate a young man ' with pride, a thing always fatal to a philosopher. "I could cite much else In argy mint, but you have the idy. Post war plannin' is not enough, sir- we must plan for post-war plan in' and even plan for the plannin of post-war plannin' if we are to steam anybody up over anythin but producin and fightin to beat Hitler and blast the Japs. "So I give you the Division of Philosopher Trainin' through Bull cookin, of the Post-War Plannin Projeck ah, yis, I almost for got with meself, Marcus Aure lius Larrity, as Coordinator and Expediter in Charge. "Meanwhile, IH go and buy meself some war stamps.". .
