(IP) More than 5.000 women have joined the WAVES since the women's Naval reserve organization was established six months ago Sunday.

The Navy reported that trained women from this force had replaced 1,200 officers and 500 enlisted men in shore jobs, releasing them for combat duty. "Because of the highly successful replacement of men by women," the statement continued, "the Navy Department during 1943 will seek 4,500 women officers and 31,000 enlisted women for the women's reserve, while 4,000 officers and enlisted women are to be sought for the women's reserve of the Coast Guard."

This was the day Whit was going to Sandwich to fetch in the oxen he had agreed with Daniel Beede to buy. He told Melissa that he'd go down and see Jonas and find out how things stood. But Whit only stayed with Jonas a few minutes before going on to Bcede's.

He wanted his oxen; he wanted to know they were his. Beede noticed that Whit didn't have his gun with him, and as Whit was leaving the yard at the head of the near ox, his goad carried forward and his face very solemn, Beede said to him, "Now you look like i farmer!" HEZ HACKETT, the hunter, stopped by in November. He dmired the new baby. "He-one, ain't it?" he said to Whit. "That's what I heard.

Hackett mentioned some trouble the folks were having with the Britainers down in Boston, but Whit didn't pay much attention. It seemed so far away. After that, Whit and Melissa didn't see anybody except their near neighbors until spring. They came to a morning that was the middle of May, and there as still no word utuiiia.

"Who won?" "Soldiers, I guess. They was on top at the finish. But the m'litia done well. They kiil't more'n you'd think for." "Right in Boston?" "Handy to it, I guess. Twas up on i hill.

Comeau Third Floor 319 Clematis Street West Palm Beach Tel. 3769 I IKEEP'EM ROLLING: Helpful Hints For Motorists On Car Caro By WILLIAM ILLMAX NOTE SHOP EQUIPMENT In seeing that one's car is properly serviced, it pays to notice the equipment of the service or maintenance establishment one patronizes. Shop equipment manufacturers have contributed a great deal to the economy of automobile upkeep by development of machine tools that reduce labor enormously. Repair establishments which have this equipment are possessed of definite advantages in the matter of lower charges.

HOW TO EASE THAT SKID Motorists have been told for some years that the most effective way to break a skid is to take pressure off the brake immediately. Instinct still is triumphing over reason in spite of all warnings, traffic accidents indicate. It is difficult to remember to take one's foot off the brake when the car starts to skid, but it is far safer. BEARINGS STILL WORK Pressure lubrication and other improvements have taken a great deal of the strain and wear from the bearings of the modern automobile. However, they still are subjected to more stj-ain and wear than any other part of the car, and the owner never should allow himself to dodge giving them consideration.

The latest design helps the situation, but the motorist still has a responsibility. DANGEROUS ENGINE HEAT Allowing the engine to become overheated, engineers have long insisted, is dangerous. It therefore behooves the motor owner to pay especial attention to the car's timing. A late spark causes dangerous overheating. Loss of power, fuel waste and valve deterioration are the three main results.

READ THE BULLETINS The instrument board of the au tomobile is continually bulletining the condition of the various working units of the machine. Because these bulletins change so little ordinarily, thousands of drivers fail to read them at all. This habit is a one in many cases. The ammeter may be trying to tell a story of a short-circuit, the oil gauge may be bulletining the fact that the crankcase lubricant is low or exhausted, or the gasoline gauge may be telling of a paucity of fuel. It pays to keep abreast of the news.

KEEP TRACTION EQUAL Your sense of security born of the fact that the wheels on one side of the car have traction may prove to be false. Traction that is equal for all four wheels always is best, as you will recall if you ever have been stuck in the mud, because one rear wheel persisted in running free. Unequal traction on hard-surfaced highways is the reason for a great many dangerous skids. BE QUICK ON THE CHOKE Celerity in handling the choke, if it is not automatic, will save you a great deal of annoyance. Skill can be useful in handling this, much-abused feature of the automobile.

Here, briefly, is the effective method of handling the choker: Pust it in instantly upon starting. Pull it out the instant the engine threatens to stall. FACT WORTH REMEMBERING It amounts to a habit with some motorists, this trick of racing the engine to warm it up when starting. There is a strong temptation to step on the accelerator, but it is wise to resist this impulse. An idling engine heats more rapidly than one that races.

Furthermore, giving a lot of gasoline to a cold motor still is one of the best ways to burn out a bearing. Twenty-three thousand heavy bombers could have been built in the four hundred and eighty million man-days lost in this country last year through accidents. 0UR-SIDESH0S7 The Great Presto has nothing up either sleeve.

(Delayed) (iP) The commander of the first feminine AEF keeps her nose nicely powdered and knows how to make a lemon meringue pie and she's popular with the non-combat of Waacs, representing 39 States, who recently arrived here. Capt.

Frances Keegan Marquis of New York has the dignity of assurance. Often there is a merry twinkle in her blue eyes. In a Waac's "yes, ma'am" to her, there is an undertone of confidence. In addition to being the first woman to head the first unit of non-combat women soldiers to be sent abroad by the United States, she is also the first woman to be in charge of a troop train. She commanded the special train that carried the contingent from the Second WAAC Training Center at Daytona Beach to an East Coast port of embarkation.

Captain Marquis is the wife of Harry Marquis, a New York bus' inessman. She was on a trip to the Washington, D. headquarters of the Women's Army Auxil iary Corps when she learned Dec. 4 that she had been selected to bring the first detachment over seas. Capt.

Marquis was born In West Newbury, her mother's peo ple came from Tipperary and her fathers from Kildare in Ireland, rier ratlier, John L. Keegan, now nearly 80 years old, lives in Mel rose, Mass. "Keep your sense of humor," she says when the going gets a bit hard and she practices it. About five feet nine inches tall, she wears her brown hair in a short, soft curly bob. Her naturally clear complexion needs litfle makeup, but she considers nose-powdering part of being well-groomed.

After finishing her high school education in West Newbury, Capt. Marquis went to Simmons College in Boston, and later studied at Illinois and Columbia Universities. She has a bachelor of science degree. Too active for the role of housewife, she helped raise the funds from which New York's Town Hall was built, and for 13 years she managed the building. She was assistant director of the American Woman's Association in charge of programs.

She is a past president of the New York Altrusa Club, and publicity chairman of the International Association of Altrusa Clubs. She resigned as executive secretary of the Women's City Club of New York to join the officers' candidate class which opened the First WAAC Training Center at Des Moines last July 20. Why did she join? She explained that for eight years she had felt this country had neglected its obligations and "when there was an opportunity to do something, I felt that I who had talked so much about it, had to do it." Her hobbies, she said, are not the things people usually consider as such. She worked as a volunteer in the library of the New York Hospital. She likes to type manuscripts.

And, she acknowledges, she is a good cook especially when it comes to lemon meringue pies. Townsend Meeting The Rev. J. D. Peebles will be guest speaker at tonight's meeting of Townsend Club 1 at 423 Iris St.

But as she crossed a bridge the wind got at her package and blew the kettle lid into the river. It landed topside down and floated toward the bank. Mrs. Dolder's grief attracted a policeman, who telephoned the fire department. 'Two ladder trucks came clanging up.

Firemen crawled down the slippery bank and retrieved the teakettle lid. Mrs. Dolder went home, beaming. HELP WANTED BALTIMORE Jan. 31.

m. THURSDAY Three Score and Ten Club meets at Union Congregational Church Sermon Subject (Editor's note: This Is another in the series of sermon resumes furnished The Post-Times by the Ministerial Association.) The Rev. Carroll Vainer, pastor of Wagg Memorial Methodist Church used as his sermon subject at Sunday morning services, "The Incredible basing the thought on Pilate's question: "What shall I do with Pilate's question, "What then shall I do with Jesus?" is still demanding an answer. An incredible stranger still walks the every day road to Emmaus, and too often goes on his way down the Road of Life alone. There has been many a sermon preached on the answer to Pilate's question, as well as the stranger with whom Cleopus and his friend walked.

Yet, his place, his identity, in the present day life still demands a satisfactory an swer. The Christ of Palestine is a beautiful character. We all have great admiration for him. We would not molest such a sacred person. And though we hear that sacred name used in profanity by the men on our own streets, few people in our city would bother him.

Simdy, he is a beautiful character with a sweet personality that lived many years ago, and the world goes on its own way. If given a second thought, the Christ of Palestine becomes a confusing character. We have made him confusing. The world, and especially the Church, has taken the simplicity of his message and has hidden him in a great host of doctrines, dogmas, and creeds. Christ, and even his first disciples, were not bothered with the doctrine of the Trinity, the method of baptism, or many of the doc trines that the church made for him.

For many people there is a danger of making a religious fanatic of themselves, rather than living by his simple message to his people. The so-called "Christ of Palestine" has been given as a by-product to almost any kind of religion. To such an extent is this true that one finds an immediate distinction between the words 'Christ-like' and 'Christian'. There are many who would claim to be Christian; there are few who are Christ-like. And still there are many religions which try to stamp his name on any pleasant conduct that is done in this world.

Organized charity tries to preach a message of giving and yet many, many a gift has no bearing upon Christianity whatever. The thoughtless dollar thrown to a tramp or the charitable gift for income tax deductions does not have the, weight of a mite given in sacrifice with a sincere heart at the altar of the Prince of Peace. Returning to religion will not save our world; it must be a return to the Christian religion. Again, one finds a Christ lost in the whirl of this day by the children of God. The busy world passes Him by as a stranger to their way of life.

Only in periods of crises are they apt to recall and re-ask the old question of Pi late's: "This incredible stranger; what must we do with him in our world?" In a final place, we find that even in our premise, we are wrong. He is not the Christ of Palestine. He is the Christ of the world. He is the 'Christ of every the road in front of your house; the road that you may follow in your life. Quoting from a friend, as we think of this incredible stranger in our midst: "At times we think that we have him securely shut up in his first century Palestine, and then we discover him walking beside us.

The things he says are so simple, and so contemporary, and so impossible. He seems not to fit into this world we know so well; but when we stop long enough to hear what he is saying, we feel that there is no hope for the world unless it will listen to him. He speaks with Palestinian accent the homely things that were true in his little world so long ago, and all at once it dawns on us that they are also the things by which our world must live if it would escape the abyss."
