This hotel is Jam-packed and has been ever since we arrived.
There being 1.300 rooms that makes approximately 3000 army and
navy men on hand. For the general average is three In a room
when the boys from camp come to town. And they certainly came
over this week-end, and overflow everywhere Including Pershing
Square. And are they having a good time? They ARE!!!
However, let's repeat this for the army and navy. They are
having whoopee and lots of it, but it isn't rough and rowdy.
Moreover, at night from midnight until sun-up it is fairly still
whether army and navy orders or not we don t know. But the
four or five hundred civilians in this hotel appreciate that.
From about breakfast time until midnight, however, it is a
different story. The goings-on are much like those in the San
Francisco hotels the night before the big game heads sticking
out all around the court, a great line of extremely masculine
wnoops ana yells and banter going on, and bottles and glasses
crashing on the tiled court below at frequent intervals.

"Hi there, that you Tayk-sis?"

"8353, what's you-ahs?"
"Ask my pappy honey, got a drink?"
"Sure have, an it's sand-blast rye."

In fact an early Impression noted In this department before
has now been confirmed beyond all question. Your correspondent
has seen a good deal of the U. S. armj the past year from coast to

produced, and before this war is over, we believe, will demon
strate it is superior not only in the air but on land and sea to any
army In the world. We hope that doesn't sound like the time

In that direction we can't picture an army or a naw with
higher one. They are all feeling fine and rarin to go.

Last time I had the Impudence
to discuss this subject here I
received some peppery letters
from women who resent
ed the inputation that It Is not
advisable for laymen to own or
use a clinical thermometer ex-1

the attending physician. These
women abashed me by naming a

assured me) who approved of

Further history of Tiny's case:
The mischievous mother ln-
inctea on Tiny a "good dose" of
castor oil. As the effect of this
was not what the mother thought
it should be she next perpetrated
on the child the atrocity of an
enema. When the child had near.
ly recovered from that attack the j
mother repeated the enema.
In a day or so the child made
a good recovery nevertheless.
I say the doctor who advised
the mischievous mother to do
anything at all to the child, on
tne mere assertion that the
mother had discovered the child
had a temperature of 102 or 103
or whatever it was, is a shrewd
one, all right, but a quack never
theless. If he were honest he'd

The administration forces con-

208 are republicans. (Three re

UNITY NEED SEEN
IN WRITING PEACE
Washington, Jan. 3. (UK)
British Ambassador Lord Hali
fax told a meeting of the United
Nations Information board to
day that the writing of the
peace will demand the same
unity among the Allied powers
as does the winning of the war.
"I am convinced that, as the
dream of Axis victory fades In
to the grim prospect of defeat,
we shall receive from some
quarter, in some shape, propos
als for peace," Halifax said.
"But we have no' intention of
allowing Germany the oppor
tunity once again to brine dis
aster upon the world, and so to
any such proposals we can fore
cast our answer now.
We shall make no neare un.
til the forces of the Axis, east
and west, north and south, have
suffered final, unmistakable and
irrevocable defeat."
