PARTY TIME—Nursery children celebrate at a recent party
given them by Mrs. Frank F. Carr. Mrs. Carr gave the party
as she stepped down as President of the Nursery Council and
Care To Be A Society Editor?
'A Long Tale
Can you imagine a more frus
trated or harried human than a
mere male trying to edit and
make up the society pages of a
newspaper?
THE ARMORED SENTINEL is
in just that sort of shape. Its
soldier editor who confesses he
doesn't know a teapot from a
toque is a shattered shaking
wreck of a man by nightfall each
Thursday after a harrowing day
in the composing room of the
Temple Daily Telegram where
he puts together Fort Hood's
weekly newspaper.
His condition is the occupa
tional result of any editor fight
ing deadlines galley proofs and
misplaced captions—but most of
all it stems from his weekly bout
with the society page.
To make a long tale of woe
short THE ARMORED SEN
TINEL needs an official society
editor.
The pay isn't much. In fact
it's nothing. The hours are
not bad though except that
Thursdays become the longest
day in the week. But it's an
1
exciting challenging assign
ment which transports the
post into the storied world of
the Fourth Estate— Distaff
Branch.
Seriously the SENTINEL would'
welcome the opportunity to fill
its long vacant society desk slot
with a Fort Hood wife who
wants to help. There might even
be a space for an assistant society
editor.
The job means an hour or so
a day on Monday Tuesday and
Wednesday to edit society stories
turned in by ladies' club re
porters and an all-day stay in
Temple each Thursday to put the
society page together.
Interested volunteer ladies who
would like to discuss the posi
tion are asked to contact the Fort
Hood Information Office tele-
John J. Heinsius of Co. C 51st
Inf. 2d Armored Division was
recently promoted *to 1st Lt.

Of Woe'
And boy what-a service to thephones 44215 or 34124 for
Fort Hood community! No longer! formation and appointment
will Fort Hood ladies have to
wade through the SENTINEL'S
society page as if it were a
foreign language—written back
wards at that. No longer .will
"white organdy overskirt" come
out as "thiew grodany veskorrit."
Fashion models will no longer be
referred to in such admiring sol
dier talk as "a bunch of good-!
looking dolls in creepy clothes."]
