ASK US ABOUT IT FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF HERMISTON With news favorable to the Allies, there should be no slackening of diligence and determination to win the war. Though the Nazis are on the run, and the Italians fleeing, and the -Japanese making no new gains, no prophets can yet predict how long the battles, on land, in the air, on the sea and under the sea, will last. The job must be well finished before another Armistice is declared. After that we will have the work, along with the other Allies, of re-organizing the affairs of the world. The reconstruction of new governments, the restoration of world finance, the facing of social problems, and the rehabilitation of cities and coun tries, will require more brains, deep interest in hum an welfare, and heavier finances than the conduct of the war. So far we have only begun the task that must end in a rebuilt, modern world. -------O------- After all, it has been only a regular Fall.

Divorced women who jail their husbands, do it partly for spite, but most of them do it be cause they are psychopathies, ac cording to a recent investigation. One ex-wife had a private fortune of $200,000 and still jailed her hus band for failure to pay her $60 a week. Another divorced woman had her husband jailed because he failed to pay her $50 a week al though he was making but $45 a week. This psychologist blames crooked lawyers for this dilemma, stating that divorced women arc persuaded to jail their husbands by these crooks.
