Show Farm and Hom-ilies . . - by Baukhage With summer coming on probably a lot of the less energetic lads who join the army will apply for service with the ski troops. There is a report re-port that one pale young ski-trooper did such a good job of camouflaging himself during practice maneuvers with the army last winter that his fellow soldiers could not find him until un-til after the snow melted. The federal department of justice in Washington reports that during 1940 there was a major crime committed com-mitted every 21 seconds, a robbery every 10 minutes, a burglary every Ha minutes and a larceny every 35 seconds. The rate of minor crimes was much greater than this. Looks as though the national "offense" program pro-gram is not slowing down. |
