UNIVERSAL MILITARY TRAINING
Already the congressional battle is getting
under way about compulsory military train-
ing. Because of the need for millions of men
to fight World War II, most persons now
realize that compulsory training would have
been most, beneficial to America. ■
However, indications are that there will be
a large standing army after this war until
we know what kind of a peace will be made.
As the nation has the nucleus of a great
military machine, there is some reason to. be-
lieve That congress should not be too rapid in
making a policy that goes too far into the
future. , „
The Herald believes in military training
and if it is necessary, it is for taking the
youth of the nation for one year and giving
the specialized training.
The nation has a trained army, one that
can be deperfded upon for any immediate
emergency. Based on the experiences of the
past, it will be 15 to 25 years before the
United States will need a vast military ma-
chine again.
Congress may well give consideration to
a plan that will give universal, military train-
ing beginning 7 to 10 years ahead. It should
continue its previous policy of giving mili-
tary training in colleges and high schools,
as well as having the Civilian Military Train-
ing Corps and units like the National Guard.
But, 100 per cent military training for the
youth of the nation or soon after the close of
the world’s greatest- war would be expensive
and probably unnecessary.

* Library Notes
Easy book—“Nappy Planted A
Garden” by Inez Hogan,
Nappy wasn’t quite what Sister
meant when she said he would be
a real soldier if . he became a sol-
dier of the soil. But he got into
his uniform of blue denim and
laid out all his equipment—-shovel,
rake, hoe, garden hose and Flit
gun—and set to work under Sis-
ter’s direction. He planted, and
watered and weeded; he used his
Flit gun on armies of assorted
bugs. And at last Nappy had a
bumper crop of vegetables. Then
he ate and ate and ate—until his
jacket buttons popped. Every
child who has been eager to share
in the war effort will see won-
derful possibilities in Nappy’s bat-
tle with, the enemies ,of his vic-
tory garden. The drawings are
some of Inez Hogan’s best.
Juvenile book,? “Rabbit ill” by
Robert Lawson.
News traveled swiftly in the
rabbit family. Soon little Georgie
and Mother and Father were tin-
gling with excitement. So were
Porkey, the woodchuck, and Wil-
lie, the fieldmou^e, and Phewie,
the skunk. In fact, the whole hill
was a twitter. Yes, sir, everyone
was chattering that new folks
were coming!. Little Georgie was
more excited, than anyone. For
hadn’t he been chosen to carry-
the news across Connecticut to
his uncle? It was a dangerous
journey. Anything might happen.
No wonder Father made him re-
cite the names of all the dogs
along the way. Little Georgie met
these dogs, all right. And just as
though they weren’t enough trou-
ble, other adventures came along,
besides. Back home, everything
was upset, too, because of the new
folks in the Big House. What hap-
pened to all, of them brings a
special surprise in this unusual
story. *
Teen-age book, “Raymond L.
Ditmars: His Exciting Career With
Reptiles, Animals and Insects” by
L. N. Wood.
\ uurig Ray Ditmars thought that
collecting live snakes was the most
fascinating hobby in the world.
And once he had captured th<2jn,
quite naturally he wished to keep
them in his own home! His moth-
er and father didn’t care for that
idea at all. But Ray persisted.
Even though his home was in New
York City, he found snakes in
Central Park. And in the end, he
won his point with his family.
This was the beginning of a most
distinguished career. And when,
after many exciting experiences,
he was appointed to the staff of
the Bronx Zoological Park, he was
a happy young man. Expeditions
to far corners of the earth, danger
and daring and miraculous es-
I capes came to Raymond L. Ditmars
then. This true story of his thrill-
ing life takes you with him on his
I adventuring and reveals his im-
portant scientific' discoveries, the
benefits of which he gave to all
mankind.
j Adult book, “They Dare Not
! Go A-Hunting” by Dorthea Corn-
i well.
| Julia Greer had youth and beau-
ty and charm, but she was afraid
| of life—and of love. For her it
, was a carefully instilled fear:
“The more you love,” her mother
] had warned, “the more hostages
you give to life. The more ways
you can be hurt.” This is the ab-
sorbing story of how Julia escaped
from that fear. The first step
came when a wise family doctor
prescribed a new hair-d'o, a smart
hat, and a bottle of exotic per-
fume, instead of his usual medi-
cines. At the same time, an invi-
tation to cocktails at a neighbor’s
home brought a new warmth of
human contacts and a'wider hori-
zon of interests. But it was Julia’s
chance meeting with Mike and
Truda in the village drugstore
where the whole , town gathered
for refreshments and gossip that
brought the greatest change in her
outlook on life and made her a
surprised third person in an up-
usual triangle. “They Dare Not Go
A-Hunting” is a penetrating psy-
chological story o% one girl who, is
typical of many. Winner of the
coveted Dodd, Mead •— Redbook
$10,000 award, it promises to be-
come one of the most popular in
a long series of prize-winning nov-
els.

Maybe you think that servants’ entrances went out of fashion
with the brownstone-fronted mansions of the gay nineties, or
the overblown new-rich palaces of the roaring twenties. Don’t
you believe it! In fact, there are servants’ entrances in your own
home—not one but many.
Right in your walls, Wherever there’s an electric outlet,
you’ll find Reddy Kilowatt, your electrical servant, waiting to
come in and help do your work. He’s fast, strong, always on the
job, and works for only a few pennies per day.
While most other workers’ wages have gone up, Reddy’s
have actuary gone down. And even though he’s been doing a
lot of war work, he’s always been right on hand when you
wanted him to help with the housework. He still is. Whenever
you need him, plug in—he’s Reddy!
