sion offices in 616 Oregon build­

Before our fighting pilots take to
the air for stratosphere flying they
must be ’’suped-up.” To do this the
pilot just before he takes off pedals
a stationary motor driven bicycle to
reduce the amount of nitrogen in his
blood. Otherwise gas bubbles would
collect in his blood stream.

The field’s excellent condition
is due to several facts, he said.
Considerable work, including fill­
ing and seeding, was done this
spring; it has been mowed and
kept in good shape all summer;
and no activity has taken place
there this summer. This is the
first summer the field has been
free.

O. T. Bateman, 1/c specialist
(mail), in the Seabees, was trans­
ferred several weeks ago from
Camp Perry, Virginia to Davis­
ville. He has been at the Sun Val­
ley rifle range for a week or so,
but will leave soon. He may have
a chance to come home.
Word recently received from
Melvin Powell, A.M.M. 3/c, a pet­
ty officer in the navy, by his par­
ents, Mr. and Mrs. Virgil Pow­
ell, .tates that he is fine and en­
joyed a nice trip from the United
States. At the time of his writ­
ing he was held over for a few
days at a small island in the
Southwest Pacific, and enjoyed
going out in the jungles with the
natives picking bananas and co­
coanuts. He said the ones they
gathered were so green they had
to trade them with the natives
for ripe ones, and that the natives
were very friendly and liked to
have them come and visit "them.
Melvin says “hello” to all his
friends, and would enjoy hearing
from them. His address is: L. M.

Fred L. Lusby, son of Mr. and
Mrs. C. Lusby, and Calvin J.
Sasse, son of Mrs. James Cox, are
Vernonia men who began train­
ing at the U. S. naval training
station at Farragut, Idaho this
week.
Now a second lieutenant in the
quartermaster corps of the army,
Hugh Caton, son of Mrs. Cleo
Caton, arrived here Tuesday to
spend a week’s furlough. Lt. Ca­
ton received his commission July
30 at Camp Lee, Virginia after
completing
officer
candidate
school there. The young officer
entered the army last December
and was stationed at Ft. Warren,
Wyoming until April, when he
was sent to Camp Lee. He began
training, which he described as
“very thorough,” on May 1.
Hugh says he is very glad to
be home and to have a chance to
see all his friends.
The stationary bicycle is an in­
expensive piece of equipment, but
the vast quantities of this and other
materials of war make it imperative
for all of us to keep our fighting men
well supplied by greater and greater
purchases of War Bonds.

garden plates
Now’s the time of year to take a
careful look at the fresh vegetables
on the market, for varied menu in­
spiration. The ways you can serve
these garden treats are almost limit­
less—and they do wonders for lazy
appetites.
COMBINATION SALAD PLATS— A whole
meal on one plate! Arrange shredded
greens on large plates. Lettuce,
other salad greens, or crisp, raw
spinach may be used. In the center
of each plate, place large tomatoes
hollowed out and filled with chopped
egg, meat or chicken salad. Around
the tomatoes, arrange a circle of
chilled, cooked peas, then another
circle of sliced, pickled beets. Pass
the salad dressing separately. Hot
cheese biscuits or toasted cheese
sandwiches are delicious with this.
And custard or pie fits in well for
dessert.
MIDSUMMER PLATTER — At one side of
a large, heated platter, place pastry
shells filled with creamed, sliced,
hard-cooked eggs and peas. In
separate groups place mounds of
sauteed, shredded cabbage, broiled
tomato halves and broiled fresh
peach or apricot halves. Serve with
toast or crackers, and follow with a
fruit bread pudding.
HOT WEATHER SALAD PLATE — Place in
separate lettuce cups a generous
serving of potato salad, chopped
spiced beets and cottage cheese, and
cooked, green string beans. Garnish
with cucumber and carrot strips.
Serve your favorite dressing sepa­
rately, and pass a plate of oven-hot
muffins. Apple pie and cheese will
polish this meal off.
