Byron reported at the an nual dinner of the National Confec tioners’ association. General Byron, who directs the special services division of the arm y, has toured alm ost every thea ter of operations to inspect the arm y exchanges. “ S cattered all over the world from the howling Aleutians to the coral reefs of the Pacific are thousands of lost and lonely little units nobody ever hears about," he said. “ They do dull but im portant Jobs. S c a rc e ^ any will ever see action. Life is an endless stretch of deadly monotony for them .” He added th at it isn ’t unusual for these m en to buy two or three boxes of candy at a tim e a t a PX.

WAR BONDS Reopening FLORENCE BEAUTY SALON Will Open SEPTENRER 20 F E A T U R IN G Air Force Paper Bel'.ltles the Fear of Snakes, Tiger* And Crocodiles. WASHINGTON. — Snakes, ta ra n tulas, crocodiles, m an-eating tig ers and other te rro rs of the jungle are “ strictly hokum ,” d eclares Air Force, official service journal of the arm y a ir forces, quoted by Science Service. And as for the dreadful h eat of the tropics, “ seasoned jungle trav elers tell us th at they have found Washington, D. C., in the su m m er much m ore oppressive than any jungle they've ever v isited.” F or the reassu ran ce of young avi ato rs about to go into the southw est Pacific fighting area, and especially for their anxious kinsfolk and friends who will be left behind, Air F orce has rounded up the best in form ation available, from n u m er ous persons who have known the tropics a t first hand. F in d in g s R e p o r te d . H ere are some of th eir findings: Poisonous snakes in the tropics are less num erous than they a re right here in the safe old U. S. A. You m ay get to see about one snake a month, on the av e rag e— and it will probably be a h a rm less one. Pythons, boa-constrictors and other " c ru s h e r” snakes do not attack hum an beings. Bites of the big tropical spiders (which, by the way, a re not tru e ta ra n tu la s) rarely happen, and when they do they are not m uch worse than a wasp sting. The one spider known to be really d an g er ous is our own Black Wi4ow, found in practically all p arts of this coun try. Crocodiles look terrib le, but they are too sm all-brained and sluggish to be really form idable. Since they swallow their prey whole, only a “ croc” m ore than 15 feet long would be likely to consider a m an as a candidate for a m eal. A slap from a crocodile’s tail is m ore to be feared than its toothy jaw s. Lizard Good to E at. If you see a big lizard, don’t shun him ; grab him . He is as good to eat as chicken. T here are no poison ous lizards in the tropics. The only known poisonous lizards, the gila m onster and its next of kin, the bearded lizard, are natives of our own southwest and ad jacen t p arts of Mexico. C arnivorous anim als need not be feared. T here are tigers in Asia, leopards and lions in Africa, but there are not m any of them and the few you are likely to run into will run aw ay in one direction fa st er than you run in the other. The one exception is a fem ale with cubs: fem ales seem to be quite unreason able in such m atters. Even the dreaded tropical leeches can be kept off with proper cloth ing. Or if they attach , they can be induced to loosen th eir grip with a little salt or alcohol, or the touch of the hot end of a cig arette. The real perils of the jungle are the tiny things: insects and germ s. P rotect yourself against m osquitoes, see to it th at your drinking w ater is eith er boiled or chem ically ste ril ized, use an antiseptic on cuts, scratch es and insect bites, and you will w ard off the real perils of the jungle.
