So ended the letter from Southampton that told Mary and Gilbert Long a German bomb on June 22 wrecked their home. The letter came from Dorothy Daniels, Mary's sister, who had been living with her husband, Lieut.

Gilbert Long, chief engineer of the Guinness yacht Fatome, tied up In Se attle for "the duration."

Silent Horpo Marx Speaks First Lines In 25-Year Period NEW HOPE, Pa., July 29 (UP) Harpo Marx, silent part ner of the famed Marx brothers comedy team, spoke for the first tlmo in 23 years of acting last night In a summer theatre per formance of "The Man Who Camo to Dinner," a comedy by George S. Kaufman and Moss Hart. Flaying a character known as Banjo, the stage counterpart of himself, Harpo answered many a question as to whether he act ually possessed a voice or suf fered a speech impediment. In a clear normal, voice, his first words were; "I can feel the hot blood pounding through your With Everyone Household Arts by All Ma Rrnnk T Appealing Pel Quickly Stitched 7047 terlal needed; Illustration of stitches.

I also transplant ed the beans quite succesfully." There were two photographs of Dorothy Daniels in the letter, a calm, serene faced woman. They had been taken before Mary Long left England to Join her husband in Seattle, but Dor othy couldn't find them when Mary hurriedly left. However, the blitz recovered them, for when she went through the wreckage of 336 she found them. To go on. ". . . Poor Mis Haines, the chemist opposite to 356 lost her mother.

"Give Bert my love and tell him I never wanted a handy man so much in my life as now, but wa have no electricity only gas, and the flat irons don't go wrong. Shame! "Here's a bit to tell your pals on Jack's window (Jack Is the son of Mary and Gilbert Long and is In the royal air force) I found a i pound butter wrapped In a lady's underslip blasted in from somewhere, and a sleeve of Fred's coat hanging on the 'ook In the 'all was blasted through into the larder." A quarter pound of butter, the Longs explained, was somewhat more than a person was sup posed to have at one time. "And when you and Bert come home, there is a place here for you both and Jack until we can all get ourselves sorted out and deposited on our own muck heaps again. Vulgar cat?" So the Longs are in Seattle, waiting for the war to end, Gil bert Long doing his duty in maintaining the Fantome as his country wants him, Mary knit ting and working in the British war relief. Overseas there Is son Jack, and daughter Betty, and her two wee ones.

Writ, Win at Fliaa Yaur Raiarratfoa. aaw Local Youths Write Home About New Aircraft Jobs Letters from Klamath youths, graduutcs of tho local aircraft sheet metal school and now working for various plane manu facturers, indicate they are well pleased with their Jobs. Here's one from J. Mundlin of Routo 2, Box 333: "Greetings, we have arrived and have presumably withstood the greatest nervous strajn which accompanies applying for a big Job in a big city to a big company. May I say that my Im pression of Boeing Aircraft com pany i 'Just like a big brother'. In that many words. All thru the process of signing up we were treated very well and they were very patient with us. I am sure that all of the boys who came up to go to work are going to like Boeing very much. "It seems that some of the boys were not sufficiently im pressed with the fact that they needed proof of citizenship. Two of the boys were temporarily a little discouraged because they didn't have what was required as proof. Another forgot his birth certificate entirely. I don't like to see the boys run into avoidable obstacles and to that I am offering this as an open letter to the class if you care to make it available to the boys. "You will hear from me again, Mr. Carruthcrs, and to the boys, 'We hope to be seeing you at Boeing." From Joe Paulazo of Chilo quln: "I promised to write you about Columbia aircraft, so here I am. I waited a week so that I would know exactly how I stood. I will give you the facts as I see them. "I arrived here Friday, July II and had my interview the same day. Went to work the fol lowing Tuesday. The starting wage is 55c per hour plus a 5c per hour bonus for working nights. There are two shifts, 7:00 a. m. to 3:30 and 3:30 to 12:00 p. m. Half hour off for lunch. 40 hours per week and time and a Wf for overtime of which the day shift has been getting plenty. There are some tools required but they let you buy these at your own discre tion. The company Just seems to be getting under way in produc tion and if they build a larger plant later on, of which there are some rumors, I think this place offers great opportunities. "The men working here seem to be a swell bunch and I found it easy to "fit in." Living con ditions are cheap; I found good board and room for $30.00 a month." On May 2 two sheet metal courses were started at the Klam ath Union high school in con Junction with the program of the state board for vocational edu cation. The classes are held from 10:00 a. m. to 4:30 p. m. and from 6:00 p. m. to midnight Mon day to Friday, providing a total of 30 hours of instruction eacn week. Each class can train 25 students. The training program consists of. two hours instruction in mathematics and blue print read ing followed by four hours of shop work. Students are taught to lay out actual parts as used in airplane construction from the blueprints, to make the Jigs, and then cut and rivet the actual piece of work from aluminum sheet metal. The latest tools and machines are provided for this work. Whilo the original plans call ed for a 12-week course which would provide about 360 hours of training the heavy demands from the airplane factories have materially reduced this until a student may accept for factory employment with as little as six weeks Instruction if his progress has been satisfactory. Several of the earlier enrollees secured employment from the Lockheed company in Califor nia but at the present time the demand is from Boeing Aircraft at Seattle and Columbia Air craft of Portland. The Boeing company now operates three shifts, five days a week and pays time and a half, and in some cases for all overtime. Pay days are every two weeks and the beginning rate for trainees from the vocational school is 621c per hour, and after six months this is raised to 70c per hour. Definite employment is assur ed the trainee before leaving here so that he actually has a job upon satisfactorily complet ing the requirements. All em ployees of the company must be citizens and must present to the personnel department acceptable proof of citizenship. All em ployees must also pass a physi cal examination, be photograph ed and fingerprinted. It is hoped by Arnold Gralapp, new principal at KUHS, that ad ditional classes may be provided here in the near future, uarticu larly in the field of welding and related machinist trades. Any young men interested in employment with a definite fut ure in the aircraft industry should apply to Jack Almeter, manager. Oregon State Employ ment service, 242 Main street. There are a few vacancies in the classes at the present time due to several trainees having recent ly been selected for employment at the Boeing and Columbia fac tories. It is also pointed out that the local draft board is permit ted to grant deferment from military service to persons act ually engaged in defense in dustries. The two class instructors will be glad to give any additional information and to show inter ested persons the type of work that is being done by the classes in the rooms located in the base ment of the gymnasium at Klam ath Union high school. A display of article made in the class may also be seen in the windows of the First Federal Savings bank at Sixth and Main streets. ELEVENTH FOR BROOKS NEW YORK Curt Davis four-hit, 7-0 triumph over the Cubs was the eleventh shutout verdict of Brooklyn pitchers this season.

Several speed boat races were run and surf boarders present ed some versatile stunts but the audience was forced to take to cars and toher shelter to escape the pelting shower, according to P. C. Bcrgeman, master of cere monies. Several accordian numbers were played by Ronnie Trotman Mervyne Shuck, Jimmie Shuck and Donald Bowman. Speed boat operators were from Klamath Falls.
