The former Fifth Avenue hat buyer captains a corps of 1,000 American women in the U. S. Army First Interceptor Command. They are responsible for report ing and charting the flight of every plane in the sky over a radius of several hundred miles around New York. Mrs. Gutwillig and h er staff work in a secret bomb - proof building in Manhattan. Outside are spotters, stationed every six miles, carefully scanning the sky for planes. They report every plane they see to plotters at head quarters (Mrs. Gutwillig’s staff) who chart the plane’s course on a map and report it to the Army for identification. (If it cannot be identified with the Army, Navy or Civil Aeronautcs authority, or ders are to shoot it down.) me women work with lightning speed, completing the job from spotting to identification in three minutes. It is Mrs. Gutwillig’s job to see that her staff is properly trained, in place and functioning to perfection 24 hours a day. She herself works six — sometimes seven— days a week and in that time visits each of the three shifts at least once. “I feel that no work is too hard in this job,” she says. “It means the continuance of life as we have known it—freedom of speech and the right to live where and as one wants. “The women of the First In terceptor Command are part of a group of 25,000 women vol unteer workers, doing similar jobs throughout the country. If and when the Women’s Army Auxiliary Corps becomes a reality and is finally mobilized and functioning, the interceptor com mand will be staffed from its ranks. But until then it will be ‘manned’ by volunteer workers — and we can use 200 to 300 more in our group.’’ Mrs. Gutwillig is young, attrac tive, dark-haired and chic. She is a French Canadian born in the province of Quebec, Canada. She came to the United States with her family when she was three and spent her childhood around Lake Champlain, New York. In 1930 she came to New' York, land ed a job as a comparison shopper for a large department store and eventually became a hat buyer for Fifth Avenue shops. She is now the wife of William S. Gutwillig, an importer, and is an American citizen. 5 * * a Canteen Class Is Organized By Burgaw Women BURGAW, May 28—A group o] women met in the courthouse Tues day night to organize the canteen course.

The kidneys are Nature’s chief way of tak ing the excess acids and waste out of the blood. They help most people pass about 3 pints a day. When disorder of kidney function permits poisonous matter to remain in your blood it may cause nagging backache, rheumatic pains leg pains, loss of pep and energy, getting up nights, swelling, puffiness under the eyes headaches and ditsiness.

They seem to think that they all have to follow the same pattern, or not be doing their share. School girls, working women, mothers of small child ren, and g r a n d m others who aren’t work ing in defense plants seem to think they have to contribute to their country’s war effort in the same way. They believe that only by en rolling in defense work can they do their part. They believe Ruth Millett that only by enrolling in defense courses and signing up for defense work can they do their part. They are wrong in thinking that, for there are many ways in which women can help in defense besides joining defense classes and organi zations. School girls can help at home or get vacation and part-time jobs that will help relieve the labor shortage. They can plan their edu cation so that they will fit into jobs where they are needed most. Women, supporting themselves Extra Special! One Lot RUFFLED CURTAINS Cream and Ecru $| Limited Quantity Sdwm dfarrelly & Go. HOUSE FURNISHINGS 302 N. Front Phone 5980 and contributing to the support of families, are helping the war ef fort in their daily jobs. They not only are not dependent on a man for livelihood, but they are holding down jobs that may release men for active service. Mothers of small children are making a worthwhile contribution when they are looking after their children. If they don’t do it them selves, someone will have to do it,, and it doesn’t make sense for a woman to hire an able-bodied girl to look after her children and do her housework while she does vol ^assess \ when you buY qrahma ®8®i If you like biscuit fresh and tasty.*.
