All of the girls must be investigated for reasons of military security. First aid service in the club was organized by a medical student at the city university. Helping her are two nurses, trained by French Red Cross—one of them the’ daughter of a French general. Food alone occupies 41 people, including a caterer, cooks, waiters, waitresses and dishwashers. Varied backgrounds have led, eventnally, to Red Cross; there are two waiters on the staff who worked as chief stewart and steward in the dining room of a passenger ship plying between Marseilles and Algiers before’ the war. Stranded in Africa when war came,’they were isolated from their families in France and have had no word from them in six months. Trying to cope with Americans’ strange taste for peanut butter and coffeewith-the-dinner brings occasional smiles to their faces.

Riley has apportioned $12,120 in gasoline tax money to Nevada*County as part of a $9,449(535 distribution for the quarter ending last June 30. Nevada County’s share was computed on the basis of°a motor vehicle registration of 4,808. Controller Riley said the apportionment was $2,587,023, or 21,49% quarter last year. Riley distributed one third of the $9,449,535 to the counties, and deposited the balance of $6,299,690 in the state highway fund. From the latter amount, the Division of Highways will allocate $1,574,922 to be evpended for highway construction in helping allied soldiers. residents of . should be dusted off, streamlined to! .
