A TANKER’S LIFE
Pvt. Marvin J. Watkins, who

ing poem:
They can have their G. I. and
O. D.’s,
They can have their navy blue,
But there’s still another fighter
I will introduce to you.
They call him the tanker,
His uniform is brown,
He’s a rugged individual
And he sure gets around.
He was trained at old Ft. Kno*,
The place that God forgot.
Where the mud is ankle deep
The rain, it ceases not,
i
He has peeled a millon carrots
And twice as many spuds.
He spends his leisure time
Cleaning up his duds.
He has set up many tables
And many dishes dried.
He has learned to make his bunk
A broom he sure can guide.
Now girls, take this tip
That I hand down to you,
Just grab yourself a tanker
For there’s nothing he can’t do.
And when he reaches heaven,
To St. Peter he will tell,
“Another tanker reporting,^ sir, j
I’ve served my time in hell.” !,

k . MOTHER’S MEDAL
I left her standing by the train,
Smiling through tears of grief and pain.
My striped collar showed the traoe,
i Of tears from that beloved face.
I wondered then why she showed fright
For wasn’t I prepared to fight?
For Victory, Freedom, Peace and Love
Protected by my God above.
For days I thought of her standing there,
Her smiling face, her graying hair,
Till God helped me to realize
The mystery of those tearful eyes.
Dear Mother; yours is the hardest fight.
For yours is the misery of sleepless niehta
And dragging days in the house alone
Watching for mail and the silent phone.
But when at last peace reigns o’er the world.
You’ll stand at the station, your flag unfurled.
To receive the medal that you have won.
The loving smile of vour homecoming son.
This poem was written after a three-day leave spent with his
goodly, by R. E. Bennington, Sl/c, and T. C. Hicks._

A
1
bride just starting out
JL on her career as n home-
maker has the responsibility of
learning to prepare good meals
for herself and her husband.
It’s not easy either . . . this
cooking for ju3t two persons.
The first thing to do is to get a
good cook book and follow di-
rections faithfully. The major-
ity of recipes are written in
amounts to serve four people.
However, most recipes can be
cut in half without harming
them.
Take cakes, for instance.
When you want to make only a
small amount of cake, divide
the recipe in two and make only
enough for one layer. After
baking the one layer, cut it in
halves crosswise and put the
nalves together with the same
kind of filling or icing you
would use on the large cake. Or
if you prefer, you can divide
the recipe and bake the cake
batter in cupcake form. There
are times, of course, when you
will prefer to make the full
recipe . . . especially over week-
ends when you may be expect-
ing guests.
Be sure to learn how to make
good coffee. You know there’s
nothing so dear to a man’s
heart as delicious, well-made
coffee. It’s so easy, too, that
there’s really no excuse for not
always serving coffee your hus-
band will like and enjoy. Here
is all you have to do.
Measure coffee and water ac-
curately, using plenty of coffee.
The recommended proportions
are two level tablespoons of cof-
fee to every six ounces of
freshly-drawn water. Be sure
to brew to the full capacity of
the coffee maker for most satis-
factory results. Keep equip-
ment immaculately clean, wash-
ing and scouring it thoroughly
after each use and rinsing with
clear water. Never boil coffee.
Never re-use coffee grounds.
Serve coffee immediately after
it is served.
Miss Billie Hooten of Dallas,
spent the week end at home.

I-' is a new Fall note, cleverly car-
ried out in the coat above, in striped
grey and hunter’s green, by a New
York designer. Note the large fabric
buttons, the sleeves caught with a
half-around cuff band, and the par-
tially belted, graceful skirt. Unlike
the strictly sports style, this is a
coat to top anything in your day-
time wardrobe. It's a surprise, too,
to find many of the season’s coats
less than full length, and without
any buttons at all, so that they may
be wrapped as you please. A boxy
model In black wool with a bit of
Persian trim can go anywhere, and
looks right even over an evening
dress.
