Ann Sothern, anticipating this, gave strict orders on her recent tour, declaring upon arrival in camp that “T had come to entertain the enlisted personnel, and that teas and dinner parties in the officers' clubs were out.” Too often when an actress or actor steps onto the stage in an Army camp tour the entertainer sees the first five or six rows occupied with officers and visitors, and the boys who were really the ones the entertainment was meant for taking the back seats.

SIDES, Secretary. OFFICERS NOTE We have received communication from an anonymous enlisted man who probably speaks for a good many noncoms throughout Alaska. This man has the audacity to believe that when a movie actress or actor visits camp, he or she should devote more time toward visiting with the G. I. boys who form the bulk of the armed forces, rather than with the men in the pink pants who carry the most metal around on their shoulders. a Adding weight to s argument, he sent along a report from one of the actresses who, after a tour of entertaining at Army camps, accused the “brass hats” of making the trip a flop because they monopolized her time. The actress, Laraine Day, is quoted as that her time was monopolized by officers saying ranging from captains to generals and she ses si sty ‘ ging from captains to generals and she had scant |feasible to hunters so that the country may not gigning of peace treaties.

In South Dakota, it said, the pheasant hatch w: great this year that some counties have open seasons extending over several months, with hunters privileged to kill seven birds a day. This is only part of the story of the effects of | restriction of ammunition for hunters but it furnishes some idea of the vast amount of food which waits ‘n vain for the harvest. Tn America here has been so much talk of conservation of game in recent years that the necessity for the control of flocks and herds has been underemphasized When the amount of game is not controlled by a | sonable amount of hunting farmers must suffer | loss of crops. In time of war this means a double loss | to the Nation as a whole.
