THURSDAY, JUNE 21, 1945 NEVADA CIT Y NUGGET To the People of this Community How long will the war with Japan last? Everybody has an answer to this question but our best advice is not to base your bond buying on whether you think it will take weeks or years to win in the Pacific. The best war conduct is always to be on an all-out war : effort basis. General Douglas C. MacArthur gave you the tipoff on what to expect before your relatives and friends take-over 3 wrecked Tokyo. In the Philippine campaign only 185° Japanese surrendered in a slaughter. which cost them 308,180-men. Buy bonds in the 7th War Loan with a spirit of an American in combat. Give it to the Japs full force and with all your weapons. That’s the way to do your part in the vital, mighty 7th War Loan. Now—all together.

On the seventh morning, the Sergeant made him repent for having forced his will on two young girls of the town. And so, day' after day, the repentances went. And every day the crowd outside Sergeant Borth’s office in the Fascio grew, and the laughter got louder and louder. One morning Tomasino the fisherman called on Major Joppolo at the Palazzo. As he entered the building, and even as he‘walked into the Major’s office, he looked like an American sight-seer. His neck bent back on itself and his eyes wandered around in dull amazement. Major Joppolo was pleased to see him and said cheerfully: ‘‘Good morning, Tomasino.’’ : But Tomasino’s face changed from curious to sullen, and he said: “T did not) want.‘to do it.” “Do what, Tomasino?’’ “Come to the place of authority,
this Palazzo. I have never done it in my life. My wife made me do it ‘Why? What did she want?’’ “She said that if you had lowered yourself to cOme and see me on my fish-boat, I could lower my4 self to go and see you in the Palazzo. She wanted me to invite you to come to our house tonight to help eat some torrone which my daughter Tina: made. My wife is a difficult woman. I hate her. She thinks she is the authority in my house.”’ Major Joppolo said: ‘‘Please be so good as to tell your wife that even though her husband was _ so reluctant in the delivery of her message, the Major would be delighted to accept.’’ Tomasino said: “I am of half a mind not to tell her. I hate her.’ Major Joppolo — said: “What . . time?”’ Tomasino said grimly: ‘‘You are a man of authority. . You ‘decide what time.”’ : Then Major Joppolo suddenly remembered two sentences from the Notes from Joppolo to Joppolo in his" Amgot notebook. —He remembered: ‘‘Don’t. play favorites. . Be careful about accepting invitations. . .”’ It would be best if he were not seen going to the house of Tomasino. People like the interpreter Giuseppe. might misunderstand his motives. idea to go after dark. The Major made some quick calculations: let’s see, the sun goes down about eight fifteen, it gets dark.. . ‘‘How would nine o’clock be, Tomasino?”’ : Tomasino said sadly: ‘‘Hight, nine, ten—what difference?”’ '“PU be there at nine. What is . the address?’’ ee “Tt is a horrible house. Nine Via Vittorio Emanuele.”’ Promptly at nine o’clock Major Joppolo knocked on the door at 9 Via Vittorio Emanuele. Tomasino opened the door, but did not show the slightest pleasure at having a . visitor. “Come in,”’ he grurhbled. The Major stepped in and tried to shake his hand but could not find it in the dark. “We have to climb many stairs,” Tomasino complained. As a matter of fact, there was only one flight. At the top of it they turned into a brightly lighted hallway. Tomasino led the Major through the hallway to a narrow parlor. This parlor belied the unsociability of Tomasino, for its furniture consisted almost exclusively of chairs—a sure sign, in Adano, of frequent and numerous guests. BesideS the chairs there were only a large Italian radio in one corner and a round table in the center. The room was so narrow that from the chairs on either side one could reach whatever was on the table. Two guests had arrived before the Major, and their identity—surprised him. “Hi, Major,” said Captain Purvis, who looked as if he had been into a couple of bottles of wine, “Giuseppe told me the old fishhound here had a couple of pretty daughters. I was getting kinda lonesome. Giuseppe here told. me he’d bring me up. Good old Giuseppe.” “Good night, a boss,” said Giuseppe. He was much embarrassed; he had had no idea that the Major would show up. The Major was just as embarrassed as Giuseppe. He was thinking of those sentences from the Amgot notebook: ‘‘Don’t play favorites, a Be careful about invitations. * ‘Why, hello,” the Major said. ‘‘Haven’t seen the quail yet,”’ Cap-. tain Purvis said. ‘‘The old lady’s out in the kitchen. She’s a honey.” The Major sat down stiffly. Captain Purvis said: “Say, I didn’t know you were an old hand around here, you dog. Why don’t you tell me about these good things? You old bum, I thought you never did anything but work. .Tel] me, how are these chickens?’’ Major Joppolo said weakly: “I haven’t seen the girls, except one of them in church. This is my first time here.”’ Captain Purvis, who was unquestionably tipsy, said: ‘‘Hey, speaking of chickens, I heard one the other day. You remember where Hoover said once that he was going to fix it so there would be a chicken in every pot? Well, I heard the other day that after the U.S. Army was around these Italian towns for a while there was going to be a chicken on every lap.”’ (TO BE CONTINUED) It would be a good: a! ema ? % Page Three re PREMIER SECURITY! will do the rest. aS Ser Ss 4 ll.
