ASK YOURSELF why you hang back from adopting an improvement like Tampax (monthly sanitary protection) which can make so great a difference in your daily life. Really ask yourself why...Do you want more assurance, more evidence? Remember that tampax was invented by a doctor and millions of women now use it. Who is different from these millions?

Tampax works on the principle of internal absorption, well known to the medical profession. It is extremely simple and practical. Pure surgical cotton is compressed into slender white applicators for neat and easy insertion. Good-bye to odor, chafing, ridge-lines that "show through"...You cannot feel the Tampax while using it and you can even wear it in tub or shower bath. Disposal is not problem at all.

A full month's average supply of Tampax slips into purse. But it at drug or notion counters in 3 absorbency-sizes for varying needs. Try Tampax and relieve the tension on "those troublesome days". Look for Tampax Vendor in restrooms, throughout the United States. Tampax Incorporated, Palmer, Mass.

At Williams young Americans study aviation engines. These are mechanics: Cpl. J. Harris, Pfc. Al Dillion and Cpl. Fred Heiser.

Together, "chasing electrons" or flying jet-planes, Negro and white boys are building a greater Air Force.

And Lackland is not alone. In varying degrees of efficiency, dependent on local commanders and geographical position, the Air Force's non-segregation program is going into high gear. We saw Negro youths at Keesler, in Biloxi, Miss., side by side with whites, studying the most technical elements of air traffic control, radar net defense and communications. We saw Negro officers (many of them ex-99th men), side by side with white boys "chasing electrons," sweating through calculus or studying the Supersonic Trainer. We saw them at officers clubs, with the wives, eating at the same tables, slumped on the same bars as white officers and their wives. We saw them in the same BOQ's, in the same toilets.

At Williams, A.F.B., in Arizona, the same thing happens. There, the center of the jet-plane command, the boys - black and white - sleep, eat and live "jets." To them and their wives the all important project is jet planes, jet engines and their performance. Four Negro officers are flying instructors here, among them the fabulous "Mr. Death," Lt. John Whitehead.

What does all this mean? It means that the Air Force is following the order to the letter and its true spirit. In fact, giving the like to the old bromide of racial incompatability .
