night were officially credited with
capture of the three Solomon is-

mopping up the remnants of the
Japanese defenders. The islands
were believed to be Tulagi, Florida

held cities in Poland.

Aug. 25—In a 50-mile advance
down. the Caucasus railway, the
Germans early today had smashed
their way to the gates of the vital
Grozny oil fields. Two other drives
above and below Stalingrad made
that city's peril critical as panzer
columns surged across the Don
River in force only 40 miles to the
north. The southern arm of the
pincers threatened to by-pass the
industrial centre in its thrust for
the Volga.

tempting to recapture islands taken
by the United States Marines less

American forces napping when they
launched their attack, Sunday,
however, and to date U. S. Flying

planes have hit seven enemy war-
ships including tyo carriers and a
battleship, the /Navy disclosed.

he explained it was a slip of the
tongue. The chore really was listed
as an unexpleded bomb remover.”

Joseph Richardson Sr. was a Qua-
ker and like all menibers of that
sect he was a great lover of peace,
writes Raymond A. Dego in ‘““Ameri-
can Collector.” To aid in cementing
friendship between the colonies and
the Indians the Quakers formed the
Friendly Society for Propagating
Peace with the Indians by Pacific
Measures. To further this purpose,
in 1757, they had silver medals made
which were presented to friendly In-
dians. The die from which these
medals were made was designed by
Edward Duffield, famous Philadel-
vhia clockmaker (1720-1801).
