PLUS MARCH OF TIME; The IRISH QUESTION There's a poster on the wall of Sam Abernathy's store that doesn't say much. It just shows a cross, with a Yankee helmet on it -and the caption: "Light words are 'grave' words." It Isn't hard to figure out what that sign means. Loose talk has dug a lot of graves . . . and done a lot of harm here at home, too. And still you hear it. You hear, for instance, talk about our soldiers drinking and carousing around Army Camps. Of course, when you get the facts there's not an atom of truth In it A U. S. Government survey found our soldiers were the soberest, the best behaved in history-with most of them drinking nothing stronger than a moderate glass of beer. From where I sit, that kind ot "loose talk" can do just as much to undermine morale ' as any rumor that the Axis could in vent And it's up to every one of us to spike that kind of sabotage before it spreads. 3 J imm msmim o C?0Q CDOC3 Q33 SB CfcflsGD GfcB a o (Dog? etc QsGrifj Cfceffl Y FACTORY-CONTROL I IHiIE(DAIPPnM(B I 6.00-16 Tire For longer mileage and finer quality, have your tires recapped by the Firestone Factory-Control Method.
