years: his hair-raising adventures well
behind him. He and Mrs. Service and
their daughter Iris lived the winter
months at Nice and the summer in a
home in Brittany.
Now they try to live the same way 1
here: The summer in Vancouver, B.
C., and the winter in Hollywood. But
Service will "streak back" as soon as
the war is over.
He’s not too pessimistic about this
war. He's seen others. He was in
Turkey in 1912 covering the Balkan
wars for the Toronto Star. He couldn't

Leaders Needed
“We need more leaders because of
the increase in the amount of work
that can be done by Girl Scouts dur-
ing the war emergency and the in-
crease in interest which is being
shown by girls who are not members
of already established troops," council
officials explained.
The Scouts have made more than
300 tray favors for hospitals, have col-
lected jars and muslin for health
nurses and are making baby trays, lay-
ettes, quilts. applicators and toys.
“Three quilts have been pieced dur-
ing the past month " Mrs. G. Walker
Beckley, of the service committee, re-
ported Thursday. The Scouts have
also prepared 1.326 dozen applicators,
and have collected more than 26.430
pounds of newspapers and magazines,
besides helping in the collection of
waste metals and old rubber
Bureau is Set Ip
The Girl Scouts have set up a ser-
vice bureau which corresponds to the
volunteer office of civilian defense in
adult war activity.
Through this bureau the girls have
been given service hours for assem-
bling Red Cross air raid kits and util-
ity kits and for sewing and knitting
dresses, sweaters and afghans. They
plan to supply cookies for the “Kiss '
the Bovs Good-bye" committee of the
council of civilian defense.

His "quite a bit" is in French banks.

Through the years of peace the
ordnance officers here have calculated
on a production problem roughly com-
parable to this—and as soon as the
~need arose they were able to expand
the manufacturing capacity to meet
their own calculations. This arsenal
is run on the business basis of any
mass production industry. It serves as

A plea for adult leaders to assist
Girl Scouts in participating in civilian
war emergency activities was issued
Thursday from the Oklahoma City
Girl Scout headquarters, as the organ-
ization outlined plans for its Volun-
teer for Victory training course, to be
held Friday in the John A. Brown au-
ditorium
Council members Thursday pointed
out that members of the Girl Scout
organization constitute one of the j
most enthusiastic civilian defense
groups in the city, but that not every
girl who wants to serve with the'
Scouts is serving because there are not
enough leaders to organize troops for
them.
The Volunteer for Victory Institute
will begin at 10 a. m. Friday. Waldo
Stephens, authority on international
law, who was formerly on the faculty
of Columbia university, will speak dur-
ing the morning session on 'What
Youth Organizations Can Do for Na-
tional Defense.” Mrs. A. P. Murrah

Tired of Writing
And all the while the blue-eyed,
pink-cheeked Mr. Service was chuck-
ling over the argument in a comfort-
able, brown-shingled bungalow in
Hollywood, hiding out, because now he
wants "to do just as little work as
possible."
He's tired of putting words to-
gether." He's written a million in
books, and another half a million in
newspapers dispatches.
But he's far from tired of living.
He s 68 now. But it's such a vigorous
68 that he recently played himself, at
25, in a movie. He still takes three-
hour walks every day. He's immersed
in music and composing songs.
He hasn't been back to Alaska since
he left it in 1912, already famous for
"riling such loved perennials as "The
Shooting of Dan McGrew" and "The
Cremation of Sam McGee "
