The retired Army captain didn't reappear for several weeks. Finally Fin-ally he came at night and, according ac-cording to the florist, was dressed in "flashy -new clothes." But while affable and chatty, he would not discuss the fire or his mysterious prediction about it. Every time the clerk brought up the matter, the customer changed the subject. More disturbed than ever, the clerk didn't know what to do and for weeks kept silent. But, finally, he decided that it was his patriotic duty to report his information and told the story to his boss who went to the Dies committee. The latter immediately put agents on the trail. NAVY MYSTERY Meanwhile, the Navy Department Depart-ment also is working on a mystery mys-tery which it is keeping very shush-shush. A night guard making ms rounds noticed a beam of light in a room where airplane files are kept. The guard quietly opened the door and found a man rummaging rum-maging through the cabinets with a flashlight. Like all government building guards, the guard was armed with a revolver and carried a whistle. But instead of seizing the intruder, intrud-er, the guard slammed the door and dashed all the way to the guard room on the first floor, and shouted to the officer on duty: "There's someone upstairs looking look-ing at files with a flashlight! What shall I do?" . The officer and another guard rushed to the plane room, but it was empty. They found only some opened cabinets and papers scattered scat-tered on the floor. A search of the huge building also proved , fruitless. fruit-less. The mysterious prowler Mad Vanished. The next day a check showed that no files were missing. Officials Offi-cials say the intruder must have gained access to the building during dur-ing the daytime and hid until dark. But that still leaves unexplained un-explained how he got in and out, since the building is closely guarded guard-ed with admittance and exit only by special pass. So far, only upshot of the incident inci-dent is that the bumbling guard has been fired. WATCH TIIE COMITADJII The thing to watch in the hectic Yugoslav picture is not only .the Serb peasants, but the "Comitad-jii," "Comitad-jii," bandit, warriors who have struck terror into the hearts of corrupt Balkan politicians for half a century. Literally translated, a Comitad-jii Comitad-jii is a "committee of one" who appoints himself to rectify the wrongs of his country or his community. com-munity. Banded together into "Comitadjii," they played a potent pot-ent role in the last war. And if the famed British military intelli gence was up to its old standards, occupying relatively respectable positions in the community. Near the Albanian-Montenegrin border, where one of the Merry-Go-Kounders was stationed after the Armistice, Serbian officials tearfully sought transportation in the trucks of American relief workers whenever they had to travel through the countryside. And at night, Serbian gendarmes, stationed out on the plains, locked lock-ed themselves behind a combination combina-tion of barbed-wire entanglements, entangle-ments, mud-walls and blockades of pointed timbers in fear of a dread Comitadjii raid. Many of the Comitadjii became be-came national heroes, probably the foremost being Kosto Petch-anatz, Petch-anatz, whose name has been featured fea-tured in the cable dispatches from Belgrade this week. Kosto's last name Petchanataz, means the "man from Petch", and was given him after he captured the, Albanian - Montenegrin city of Petch from the Austrians in 1918. Serbian legend has it that he accomplished this capture with only seven armed men. The story, of course, has not diminished in the telling. What happened was that Kosto advanced upon the city with a relatively' small . band of men, but stationed in the underbrush under-brush on each side of the road a horde of unarmed peasants whose hoes and pitchfork protruded pro-truded as if they were weapons. Then, calling the Austrian commander com-mander out of the city, Kosto demanded de-manded his immediate surrender, explaining that he had a large army advancing behind but wanted want-ed to spare civilian lives in the city. So the Austrians, uncertain as to what was" happening on the remainder of the then crumbling war front, evacuated the city (Copyright, 1941, by United Feature Syndicate, Inc.)

Your nose, barring colds, docs all right for ordinary purposes. But go up against some heavy exercise - and you can open up tyour mouth as well and increase the intake of oxygen. Your 1941 Buick with Compound Carbure-tion Carbure-tion works something like that. Its "nose," which is the forward one of your two thrift-size carburetors, docs a grand job of supplying "breath" for your engine on normal jobs. But when the time comes that your engine has to dig in for a tough pull or a burst of power, then your extra foot-pressure on the gas treadle opens up the "mouth" and your engine "breathes" through two carburetors. Simple, isn't it? Yet look what happens: Your engine always consumes gas according to the need. c By simply taking it easy when easy docs it and breathing deep when the work piles up, your power plant gets as much as 10 to 15 more mileage from the same gasoline. That, in these days, is nothing to be sneezed at. So why don't you get the whole story from your Buick dealer? Optional at slight extra cost on Buick Special models, standard on all others.
