BEDDIN' DOWN FOR CAROLE
A MARSHALL ISLAND BASE
—<7P)—When it was common
knowledge that Carole Landis
was due, GIs on many a south
Pacific isle moved their cots into
the makeshift theater the night
before to insure having front
seats.
“My dear,” said a nice old lady
to her granddaughter, “I wish you
would do something for me. I wish
you would promise me never to
use two words. One is swell and
the other is lousy. Would you
promise me that?”
“Why sure. Granny,” said the
girl. “What are the words?’

YOUNG PINES PINED
FOR SHOWER BATH
NEW ORLEANS, La.—(jP)—'The
southern forest experiment sta
tion recently rigged up on “out
door shower bath” to solve the
problem of growing pine-tree cut
tings.
“For years,” says E. L. Dem
mon, director, “foresters had been
sloshing pine cuttings in assorted
harmones and other exotic plant
foods. Nothing seemed to help
them take root.
“Not long ago we hit on the
idea of setting up a sysem of
overhead water sprays, keeping
the cuttings drenched. It clicked.”
As a result of the experiment
the south may some day boast su
per-producing turpentine trees.
Selected trees yield up to 10 times
as much turpentine and rosin as
ordinary pines, Demmon said.
