Guide to American Cusioms
For Homecoming Soldiers Is
Described by Sgt. Joe Ward
The war department's trust

guides based on the old law,
"When In Rome, do as the Ro
mans do," would assuro the so
cial success of American sol
diers who adopted nutlve cus
toms In Africa, Chlnu, England,
and other countries has .boom
eranged in amazing fashion.
Now comes "A Short Guide
to tho United States" designed
to help veteran of African and
other campaigns adapt them
selves to the (luaiut way of
homo folks when they invade
America again. Extracts from a
new booklet are enclosed from
Sergeant Joe Ward who is with
an engineers outfit in the Afri
can theatre of war. Sergeant
Ward doesn't know the source
of tho clippings except that it
goes somewhat llko this:
"Americans usually open a
conversation with strungcrs by
asking, 'Well, what's new?'
Whatever you do, don't reply
by saying 'Allez.' Tho only cor
rect way to answer i 'Well,
what's new with you?" And
when you meet some one you
know, you Just merely auy,
Well, 11 be d If it oln't Bill.
Where In h you been keeping
yourself?' And whatever you
do,, don't kiss Dill on the
cheek."
Confusing System
American monetary astem la
rather confusing. Regardless of
their denomination, 9, 10 and
20 dollar bills are the same
size, A nickel (worth only 2't
franca) is almost twlco as large
as a dime (worth five francs).
Two dollar bills are tnboo and
the natives are extremely su
perstitious about them.
In some parts of the United
States, eggs in powdered form
are unobtainable and you will
have no other choice than to cat
them directly from the shell.
However, It is advisoble to boil
them first.
In the rural districts It is alao
difficult to get dried vegetables
owing to a lack of dehydrating
equipment. You may be shock
ed to see beets, turnips, cab
bage, and potatoes displayed in
the market places in their nat
Patton Leads
Surf Against Nazi Tanks
LONDON, July 14 (Ft Lieut
Gen. George S. Patton Jr., com
mandcr of the U. S. seventh
army invading Sicily, leaped in
to the surf from a landing barge
and waded ashore to take per
sonal command of bitter fighting
against German tank units op
posing the landing, MocI Monks,
Daily Mall correspondent aboard
a destroyer, reported.
At "General Patton's Amerl.
can bridgehead at Gela," ha
wrote, ... I was told the story
of Fottons great personal cour
age and the magnificent fighting
qunllty of his troops.
"When the Americans landed
at Gela they found the town In
control of two German tank real
ments. During the next 24 hours
the fiercest fighting of the whole
allied invasion took place. Twice
the Germans were driven from
the town and twice the Amerl
cans were forced right back on
to tho beaches.
"At this stage General Pntton
leaped into the surf from a land'
ing bnrgc and waded ashore to
take over personal command.

were driven back from the

these and in places you can see
people drinking stuff called
Coca Cola, orange crush and
many other kinds of drinks
which aro too many to mention.
Also several kinds of candy
burs if you have the ready cash
to pay for them.
"Binge" Same
In many respects, American
natives are no different than
people any where and what
they cull a "Saturduy night
binge is no different than what
happens when you Icon up
against a bar and drink a lot of
vin rouge. In churches, auditor
iums and other public places,
you will see women slipping
their foot out of their shoes and
wriggling their toes. This has
no religious significance. Do
not, however, attempt to Imi
tate them.
Always be courteous and tact
ful. Listen patiently when vet
erans of tho first World war
! bore you with stories of how
much tougher things were in
their fight. Remember, thoy had
to listen to the SpnnisliAmcrl
con war veterans, who, in their
turn, listened to the Civil war
veterans, etc.
Plastic Surgery
Likewise, when you notice
native women with their extra
chins removed by plustic surg
ery, don't congratulate them.
This operation la known as
"Losing Face" and the natives
are very sensitive about this.
Always remember the Amerl
cons are really very friendly
people, despite the ferocity of
their handshakes, and violent
back-slapping. Also their civil
ization is much younger than
that of Europe and Asia.
They ore overgrown children
at heart and should be treated
as such. In fact, any woman un
der 35 may be safely addressed
as "Baby."
And when you do all of this,
Buddy, you will know you are
home again.

Americans landed from the

tablished and the Americans had
pushed the Germans back to a

Sweetheart of Captain
Jack to Lay 'Eggs' Marked
'For Too and Tokyo Japs'
By GERTRUDE MOORE
Chairman Contest Committ..
Remember the old question,
"which was first, tho hen or the
eeg?" Well, for July 1943, it's
tho hen first the little bantam
hen that enters the Popularity
contest and wins the prizo with
the backing of her Bond buying
friends.
You will hear about the "egg"
Inter, when the heroic crew of
the "Klamath Pelican" whips up
a Tokyo omelette in Tojo's kit
chen. And don't be too sure
that it won't be done with the
"cgs" we buy for the bomber
this month could be.
It would be most interesting
to know the individual plans for
spending the money from the
Bonds when we have peace
again, but not half as interesting
as the thoughts of the boy who
places a bomb on the exact spot
where it will do the most good,
and knows that he will have an
other one to drop on the next
likely place.
We all know what it means,
not to have proper and sufficient
tools with which to do a Job
well. How dissatisfied we are
with the results, when we know
that we might have done it bet
ter with better equipment. If
we buy all the Bonds we can,
we know the boys in the air will
do the rest, they have promised
Uncle Sam they will, and it
would be a glorious thing, both

for them and for us, to have

can give them now our co

to do.
The busy little bantams that
enter the Popularity contest will

our Bond sales for July to your
attention. Watch the News
Hcrald for their names and then
place your Bonds on your fav
orite. The Business and Professional
Women's club and the Soropli
mist club are organizing the
Bond sales drive, but we need
the Bond buying power of every
one in Klamath county to put it
over. Make your pledge to the
