A tiny item out of Washington quotes an Ohio congressman as condemning the ‘‘silly shush' shush policy of many Iécal draft boards" in inducting men into the armed forces and calling for a “roaring sendoff” for draftees. ' The congressmen’s suggestion deserves much more attention than it so far has received: How in the world can you drum up any enthusiasm for . the war if you sneak the boys who fight it off to camp without eyen letting their friends know they're gone? As it is now, a man gets his call to report. His family tells him goodby. and perhaps an intimate friend or two wish him well. Then he vanishes. It may be weeks before most of his friends even know he has gone. = It's a military secret, they say, because bisting publicity, about inductions would give information of aid and comfort to the enemy. But how could information of this sort be of any possible use to the enemy? . Surely, the enemy spies have easier ways to estimate the total strength of our armed forces than to stand in line in each community throughout the nation and count the draftees as they march by. And if we gave our boys the “roaring sendoff’ which the congressman suggests, we wouldn't have to say where they were going, what unit or branch of the service they were assigned to, or anything else—except that here is a lad who is going off to war. to fight for your freedom and ours, and we're proud of him and want him back when it’s all over. Why not give the boys a chance to see that someone ir town appreciates what they're going out to do? Why not give their little brothers and sisters a chance to puff up with pride as they see the big brother march hy iglory, instead of being sent Off virtually in the dead of night as though it were something to be hidden? Why not let the mothers and sweethearts of these boys see their loved ones get a ringing cheer from all the neighbors and loved ones? Why not let us all show that we're behind the men who are going off to fight? What's wrong with getting ‘a little spirit into the war? Are martial music and marching feet and waving flags and cheering crowds to be forbidden just to make sure the boys are convinced their task is a grim and unpleasant one, rather than a glorious call to defénd everything that Ameri" cans hold sacred? We say all these things should be encouraged not prohibited—that no effort should be spared to give the boys a sendoff that will thrill them and let them all know’beyond any doubt that the folks at home are with them with everything they've got.— nento Union. ARTESIAN WELL FOUND AT TAHO Artesian well water ace exeellent qualities for domestic use has heen definitely found near the north short of Lake Tahoe on the Riolo Club property at the edge of the Brockway Golf Course, as ‘revealed to District Ranger H. I. Snider by J. V. Riolo; owner of the property. * . Snider believes this is the only known artesian fresh water found among the many wells drilled in the Lake Tahoe drainage of the Tahoe WNational Forest, although the hot minof the ground separate from and at the edge of Lake Tahoe since this area was occupied by. pioneer settlers and probably many hundreds of years before. Mr., Riolo informed Snider one peculiar feature about the artesian force of the water is that, since the well was drilled three years ago, the water stops running out of the pipe of its own violition about the first part of December and starts minning again about the first part of March, witha force. sufficient to ‘low through faucets in the Riolo kitchen without pumping, although pumping is necessary later in the summer, especially to raise the water to the second story. of the lodging quarters. Snider believes the reason for the variation of the flow is probably due to the ground at the higher eleva tions freezing in’ early winter, eutting off a large portion of the surface flow from entering the sub. strata, and when the ground thaws under the snow later in the winter, the water in the surface soils again ‘find its way down through the subterranean channel to the area near the lake. In -the past the fact that water \.Weeller dug-twenty to sixty -feet-deep within a half mile of Lake Tahoe and that the Brockway mineral spring water at the very edge of Lake Tahoe, all have a_ different chemical analysis than the Lake Tahoe water, has convinced local residents there is an underground -formation near the edge of the lake that is impervious to allowing these liquid sources to thoroughly .mix. This view is now further amplified by the artesion force which would not exist, of the underground flow to the lake was rot obstruceed by such an impervious ground strata, Snider states. Snider has observed that no wells dug in the Brockway-Tahoe Vista area have been known to go dry during the summer months, which indicates an ample supply of this most necessary of all liquids to sustain natural life of all kinds. Ranger Snider Celebrates Skiing Facility Recovery On March 31, Ranger H. I.
