Front By PAUL B. MASON CINCINNATI,' O. — They are "nomadic but nice,” fly 75 to 100 hours a month, live out of a can vas B-4 bag, sleep when and where they can, see a iot of country, keep their mental and physical equili brium sometimes under difficulty, and hide their feelings from GI patients. . . Meet approximately 100 flight nurses of the ferrying division of the Air Transport Command who have handled something like 50 000 W’ounded returnees from all the far-flung battlefronts of the world. Talk with them,, and somehow you get the idea they care for their planeloads of patients like a mother hen cares for her brood of chicks. They recall jokes and gags which "the boys’* have played either upon them or among them selves. Some of the stories will clutch at the heartstrings. . . Like that of the young soldier, both legs tolown off by shrapnel who, as his plane circled his home city of Dallas, Tex., exclaimed "Well, cut off my legs and call me Shorty if I ain’t home!”— Not conscious at all of his grim pun. Flight nurses—those in the fer 1 ring division operate solely with in continental United States—are stationed at four ATCFERD bases: the second ferrying group at Wilmington, Del., the third, at Romulus, Mich, the fourth at Memphis Tenn. and the twenty first, at Palm Springs, Calif. All are under supervision of Lt. Col. Andres G. Oliver, air surgeon at ferrying division headquarters here. Many of the 100 are beribboned veterans of overseas service: more than a few have known what it means to be targets in combat. Seven of 33 nurses attached to the Fourth Group are at once typical and unique among girls in this service. Each of the seven wears the Air Medal with four Oak Leaf Clusters, earned in 14 months of hazardous flying over combat areas of the southwest Pacific. One, Lt. Margaret A.Richey of Georgetown, Tex., head nurse of the Fourth, was the first white woman to set foot on Bougainville. Along with the other six. she was with the 801st Air Evacuation Unit, oldest such outfit and first to leave the United States after war was declared. The other six were Lts. Beryl Laird of Homewood, 111., who in civilian practice worked in Har vey and Cook county (111.) hospi tals: Ethel Kovach of Owendale. Mich., currently with the 21st: Ann Ganzbuhl of Joliet. 111.; Lu cille Suida and Joyce Boisvert of Chicago, and Catherine Kolitsch of Appleton. Wis. The 801st operated 'out of New Caledonia for the most part, evac uating men from the New He brides and the Solomons. “In those days we flew without enlisted medical technicians,’’ re called Lt Richey. “Going in, we’d carry troops and supplies. Com ing out, we’d have patients sail ors, marines, soldiers. New Zea Lake Forest Women Form Sewing Club The sewing club for practical home handicraft will have the first meeting this morning at 10:30 o’clock at the Lake Forest Community building. Mrs. W. S. Pullen will be in charge to assist and teach anyone who needs help. All ladies of the community are invited.

Smith, Jr., of Winston-Salem; Mr. and Mrs. G. Franklin Smith of Newport News, Va.; Mr. and Mrs. Eugene M. Smith of Bladenboro; and Mrs. W. S. Benthal of Phila delphia, have returned to their homes after being here for the funeral of their father, A. G. Smith. Mrs. Benthallwas an aunt of the late Mr. Smith. landers, everybody. And you nev er saw a more grateful bunch. They couldn’t thank us enough for even a sip of water.” Another Fourth Group flight nurse, Second Lt. Henrietta SJ. Clair of Winner, S. Dak., 28-year old graduate of the University of Minnesota and 18 months in the Army, earned a citation for brav ery in the crash of a C-45, with 21 patients aboard. The plane crashed on takeoff. It started to burn, and among pa tients aboard were litter cases, un able to help themselves. Lt. St. Clair and her enlisted technician too kevery man to safety, even when it appeared likely the plane would explode. “How did I feel?” she parried. “I didn't feel anything. We just worked. But I got scared after ward when I got to thinking what might have happened.” Typical of the girls in many re spects is pretty and blonde Lt. Bessie Alene Holleman of Pickens Miss., attached to the 21st Group at Palm Springs. Lt. Holleman had just entered private practice when the demand for trained nurses for the armed forces increased. “But I’m satisfied,” she said the other day. “I wouldn’t take big money l'or my experience.” She flies an average of 15,000 miles monthly into all parts of the Unit ed States. One day she may be at La Guardia Field in New York, load ing and caring for men just flown from Europe; or in Miami, to re ceive patients who have been flown, via Africa, from the Far East. Or at Hamilton Field, near San Francisco, for men returned by air from the Pacific Theater. Air evacuation planes fly only in daylight never at night nor in bad weather. During times when patients are not in the air—as ov ernight or when grounded because of storm conditions, they are quar tered in the nearest Army hospi tal.

VEGETABLE COMPOUND Black Market Patrons Set Bad Example By RUTH MILLETT A recent cartoon expressed the iverage citizen’s reaction to the alack market better than a thou sand words could tell it. The car toon showed both the black mar keteer and the buyer as fat pigs. What can parents who cheat on rationing and who patronize black markets expect of their children, if they themselves set such bad examples? For anyone who selfish ly seeks more tnan his share of goods made scarce by war is a cheater. .... Parents should teach their chil dren the sound principles of thrift and the obvious necessity for co operation. Children should learn to make small personal sacrifices gracefully, especially when those sacrifices are necessary for the nation’s good. SET EXAMPLE Parents should give their chil dren reasons to be proud of them _not reasons to be ashamed. Chil dren should be able to feel pride in the part they and their parents are playing to help win the war. Instead, youngsters too often hear dad boast about his success in beating the gas rationing plan or mother telling her neighbors how she bought nylons on the black market. Can black market patrons hon estly believe that they are con tributing toe the sense of good citi zenship on the part of their young sters? The damage they are foing is irreparable—their gain is trif ling when compared to the harm thev are doing their own families.

Today, they number more than a million, one of the largest organizations for girls in the world. These girls form a sisterhood with Girl Scout and Girl Guide groups in practically every* civilized, demo cratic nation. Their program gives them the background and advance ment for things they do well. Wilmington has had the assist ance of these young women of America during salvage drives, recruiting WAC medics, USO work—so many jobs to further better living and backing our war workers and fighting forces. □ It’s the Girl Scouts who do the little jobs that mean so much—caring for children while mothers are in war work, tending the Victory Gardens to preserve food here at home. Honor, decency and kindness is the code to guide them throughout their lives. Congratulations, Girl Scouts, off Your 33rd Birthday ! ! ! HUE WATER POWER CO. ^ i
