?ur P??t baa been organized and
in operation just a little over two
months. Our volunteer-list has grown
to 70. This number, in a community
of only 500, with a large part of that
500 children and colored people, is
one of which we are proud, Practi
cally every family is represented'
several families are one hundred per
cent volunteers. Our watches are
four hours long, but there are no
complaints, and some take extra
watches just to feel that they are
helping more to win this war. even
if in a small way.
Sixty of the volunteers have
watched will over the 25 hours re
quired to win an arm-band, and some
have over sixty hours to their cred
it Our chief observer has ordered
these bands and plans to make the
presentations soon.
Week before last an army plane
made a forced landing within three
miles of us. We regretted missing the
opportunity to send a "red flash,"
but were glad the land w as such that
the pilot was able to make his own
report. Mrs. T. B. Slade, who was on
watch at the tune, did however re
port the plane's passage and was
questioned in regard to its direc
tion, etc. But we still wish we had
seen it land.
A spot in front of the post was se
lected this week for the local Vic
tory Salvage Pile. It is good to see
this pile grow; for we know that
the more we can collect to knock
heck out of A. Hitler and his fellow
yellow Aryans, the Nipponese sons
ol Heaven, the less likelihood
there will be that we shall ever send
in the flash, "Enemy planes over
head."

He gave a graphic account of his ex
periences while in the hands of the
Japanese, and stated that person

hands of the Japanese The worst
feature, he added, was that all
means of communication was taken
away .and they were entirely de
pendent upon the Japanese and
street gossip gathered by their serv
ants for knowledge of what was tak

Japanese caused them very great
anxiety by giving elaborate details

struction of allied armies and na

them to America Mr. Olive told of
the destruction of Chinese cities
wrought by Japanese bombs. How

the Chinese immediately began the
work of restoration. He gave a great

days.

fashion last night, but the raid cost
the British eight planes. It is esti

the raids last night, leaving little of
