ent membership.

The Grand Outlook
Luneh period is spent outside,
the heating system has been
changed to a cooling breeze,
spring fever has gripped one and
all. week-ends are too brief, ar­
tificial light is blinding, nature
and it’s advantages are heckl­
ing us—which means that the
average human being realizes
that the long winter is at last
over. Now all that remains to
be done, is to adjust one’s self
to the drastic but grand change
and QM Repair Shop employees
are hard at it.
P.S. Sorry, but news seems to
be nil on the front here—Miss
Blue. (Ed. Note: So it would
seem.)

this week. In that year, according
to a War Department summary,
they’ve not only done a real Army
job. but have created a demand
for their services many times
greater than the number of
WAACs now available. Here are
a few of the year’s highlights:
