GIVE ’EM A SENDOFF!
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.
