You can set your watch by the fact that at 6:10 a.m., the General arrives at the stables of the Tenth Cavalry to mount the horse | “Trail Blazer.” For 50 minutes he rides along the Potomac on the Vir- | #inia side and returns to bathe and dress by 7:20. Then, after a 20-minute breakfast, it is only a seven-minute drive across the Memorial Bridge to the Muni- ti Building, desk before 8:00. | BOND Bonds?

It is a time of evil portent for old persons as well as for long- established ways of life. The clergy may find congregations preoccu- pied with personal troubles to the exclusion of philanthropic inter- ests. Heart and Home: Under this configuration there may be a ten- dency to indulge ih apprehensions regarding the future of the fam-| ily under changing world condi- tions. This is a time to bar all ideas that are in the least dis- couraging. High hopes in theé com-| ing of better ways of living and more equable distribution of the| good things of life should be nur- tured. This is a time when the| fathers and wage-earners should be encompassed by comforts and good cheer. Sacrifices should be con-| fronted cheerfully. | Business Affairs: New discoveries of valuable minerals are prognosti- cated. Hitherto undeveloped natu- ral resources will become of su- preme significance in national de- fense, Prosperity will encourage wirespread ventures in prospecting in western areas. Private enterprise will_ be /profitable, although " short- ages in certain tools and pieces of machinery may be felt by manu- facturers for civilian buyers. Labor troubles will continue to cause de-| lays in Government contraets. National Issues: Wise men and women will face facts regarding war with open minds which accept what is inevitable with determina-| tion to serve the nation herojgally. Plain speaking on the part of men and women who dare to point out defense weaknesses should be heard | without resentment, since the na- tional inclination towards y- go-lucky optimism ignores any perils. This is a date for careful self-analysis and wise a ise- ment of the real duties of citizen- ship. 3 International *Affairs: Astrologers long have foretold periods when reverses will be met by Britain and allied forces. The seers prophesy that history must repeat itself in the part which the United States plays in the second world}y war. Dangers . to the Western Hi 5~ phere will multiply before au- tumn, it is prophesied. Tl:?%mnl defeat of the dictators is forecast, but not until a terrible is paid for victory. Waste of mer and materials will be great through the entire summer. Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of pro- gress and good fortune. New friends will be many.
