Mrs. Ex-GI won’t need any re fresher course. Her wartime role is still too painfully fresh in her memory. She won’t have forgotten, for in stance, how she gave up her home and moved in, bag and baggage, with her parents or in-laws in or der to get along on her husband’s allotment, only to find the family without housing when the husband came home. iMor wm sne nave iorgotten how she naively believed that her man —if he did come home — would come home a hero, only to find that the men who stayed home had the insiue track in business and in the professions. She certainly can’t have forgot ten the period of “adjustment” that followed reunion after the war, nor the scars that separation may have left on her marriage. No, the war wives of World War II won’t need any refresher course to get them ready for World War III. The lessons they learned from World War II are still too painfully fresh in theii memories. Nobody could tell tnem more than they already know of what it is like to sit out a war. aaiAiag jadedsAva^ TT££"JJ jejfj ^ Do You Suffer Distress Of ^ U FEMALE COMPLAINTS V With Uncomfort- j able Fullness?

C. Pretlow, Jr., and Mrs. Eleanor Watts lined up last night to judge the masterpieces of Wilmington’s many salad artists, only to find judging much more difficult than previously considered. Tomatoes stuffed with cream cheeses, olives, chicken salad and a thousand other things, plus green lettuces, grapes, pineapple, banan as, avocados .shrimps and gela tin could be made more beautiful than the loveliest flower arrange ment. By 8 o’clock opening time for the show, the judges had still reached no decision on who should win first and second prizes in the five classifications of the salad making art. The show, which was under the direction of the Home Economics department of the New Hanover High school, was the display room for more salads—fruit, vegetable, meat or substitutes, special oc casion salads, and combination in cluded — than have ever before been assembled in Wilmington. Not only were salads displayed individually, but commercial es tablishments also exhibited the many types of salads. Among the restaurants exhibiting salads were Saffos and the H and W cafeteria. Mrs. Margaret Miller’s exhibit, a luncheon table set with a natur al colored monk’js cloth tablecloth and hunter green napkins was one of the highlights of the exhibit. Placed on the table were egg plants punctured with cocktail sticks holding shrimps, a wooden balance holding pretzels. and French bread in other containers. Mrs. R. H. Hubbard exhibited one of the largest and loveliest of the salads. A fruit salad basical ly, Mrs. Hubbard used pears coat ed with cream cheese on which she placed'half red grapes. In dividual portions were centered with a large bunch of fresh red grapes. Mrs. E. D. Williams also dis played a colorful fruit salad using green grapes surrounded by quar ter grapefruits filled with red gelatin fruit salad. Each portion was placed in a fluffy cluster of lettuce. Perhaps the most interesting ex hibit was Mrs. Owen Barry Smith’s rose and yellow cream cheese flowers, which were stuffed with chicken salad. Mrs. Smith uses an instrument which makes the cream cheese fall into petals form ing the large flower. Directors for the show, Miss Ruth Blackman, Mrs. Margaret Paulson, and Miss Shirley New land, all expressed their satisfac tion over the success of the show, the first to be held in North Caro lina. Salads were judged on appear ance, food value, and taste. Among the Wilmingtcnians en tering calads were: Mrs. J. I. Carrol, Mrs. Stewart Ramsaur, Mrs. R. L. Jones, Mrs. S. L. Crawley. Mrs. Owen Barry Smith Mrs. Paul Burton, Mrs. R. H. Hubbard, Miss Lillian Middle ton, Miss Lena Middleton, Mrs. H. T. Newland, Mrs. Edward M. McKoy, Mrs. C. F. Jones, and Mrs. William E. Brock.

Getting two crops from one plant doubles production in a small home garden. Black-seeded Simpson is one of the most dependable and popular "loose-leaf” varieties. When its leaves are sheared, instead of be ing pulled, new leaves will de velop for future salads. Oak Leaf lettuce which is grow ing in popularity, also will pro duce two crops from one stalk, as illustrated in the accompanying Garden-Graph.

THUG WAS SERIOUS NEW YORK (U.R)—James Mon cado, 28 was sitting in his real estate office when two bandits en tered and one produced a pistol. “I’ll take your money, pal,” said the man with the gun. “Don’t be sill.,” Moncado said. “We ain’t,” said the younger man, slugging Moncado on the chin. The man with the gun then took $800 from Moncado’s wallet and they left.

Some gardeners never pull up or cut off the loose-leaved varie ties of lettuce. Instead they pull off a few of the outside leaves of the plants. This allows the cen ter leaves to continue growing for future use. Lettuce frequently can be sown until almost the end of August with assurance of ample returns. It will even tolerate a light frost. When a cold frame or hotbed is at hand a few plants transplanted in October into such frames can be grown on through November and December with the protection of a glass covering. To hasten the maturing of late planted lettuce apply a nitrogen fertilizer along the rows but also be sure to give the plants quanti ties of water. If lettuce is allowed to grow slowly in poor ground, it will be tough and unsatisfactory. One way to have quality lettuce is to make it grow rapidly, which means that it must have good, rich ground and plenty of room. Merrie Land Marine Corps Sergeant Wed Mr. and Mrs. A. W.

It is true that most of the Life Masters are in the east, but I think that this question will be decided within the next year or two by competition between the two sections, A large group of eastern players went out to California last year, and an other delegation is planning ts at tend the tournamen; to be held November 5th to 9th, inclusive, at the Hotel Del Coronado. Coro nado. Calif. Today's hand came up ai uoro nado last year. The play is some what involved, and a good player might “blow” the hand. South wins the opening lead with the ace of clubs, takes three rounds of trumps, then takes the dia mond finesse. East wins and shifts to a heart, and down goes declarer, losing two hearts, a dia mond and a club. The correct line of play is to win the first trick with the ace of dubs, take three rounds of trumps, winning the third round in the closed hand, then lead the five of clubs. The opening lead of the club king has marked West with the queen. West has to win this trick, and he shifts to a dia mond. Declarer should go right up with dummy’s ace, discard his seven of diamonds on the jack of clubs, then lead the queen of dia monds. If East does not ccver, South discards a heart, because if West wins the diamond trick, there is no return he can make that will endanger the contract. If East covers the diamond, South trumps, and the jack and ten of diamonds provide discards for two of the hearts. Thus at most declarer loses two nearts and a club.
