Hale, is re- ceiving congratulations from his shipmates and friends in Key West receiving telegraphic news that he became the father of a baby girl on July 3rd. Word was also received that his wife, Mrs. Alice Miller, doing splendidly at the Naval Hospital at Mare Island California, where the baby was born, and that the baby has been named Carol Ann. ! | on Probably few civilians realize the trials that beset a navy fam- ily in their efforts to be together. Some of the navy wives show great courage in their determi- nation to be near their husbands. One such woman of courage is Mrs. Howard Harris, wife of Chief Commissary Steward Har- his of the U. S. S. Crowninshield. Mrs. Harris, with her five chil- dren, Alma, 12, Howard, 11, Roy, 8, Gertrude, 6, and Irene, 4, were established in their home at San Diego when Chief Harris was transferred east. She set out to drive cross country with her five children. At Livingstone, Ala- bama, they received word that Chief Harris was expecting another transfer, so they re- mained in Livingstone, a strange town to them, for two weeks awaiting definite word where to proceed. The word was to go to Philadelphia. They journeyed on to Philadel- phia but after only six weeks there Chief Harris came to Key West on the neutrality patrol. Mrs. Harris again started out, this time for Key West. And when she got here, her husband’s ship was not in port and it was ten days before he arrived. How- | ever they are now established in their home at 1113 Grinnell St., and hope that their re-union with the husband and father will last for some time. THE ANSWERS 2. At Rouen, France, in 1431.
