Bonds for Babies

Disney Paper
Washington, D, C., June 14.—
Four-months-old John William
Dyber, son of Corporal John A.
Dyber of Fort Belvoir, Va., and
Mrs. Dyber, East Hartfo r d,
Conn., is having the right start
in life.
He became the first Connec¬
ticut baby to own a War Bond
in the “Bonds for Babies’’ pro¬
motion.
To pennies she and her hus¬
band had saved for Baby John’s
first War Bond, Grandparents
Dyber and Shepherd added e-
nough to cover the purchase of
that first $25 Bond. Thus Baby
John became the first Connec¬
ticut junior to receive a Walt
Disney Certificate of Ownership
issued by the U. S. Treasury
through state headquarters.
Corporal Dyber, Baby John’s
father, is finishing training at
Officer’s Candidate School, Fort
Belvoir. Before entering the
Army, the Corporal attended
Springfield (Massachusetts)
College and was employed by a
construction campany in Ber¬
muda for seven months.
Before their marriage on De¬
cember 9, 1942, Mrs. Dyber was
employed by an insurance com¬
pany. Just now it’s a full time
job rearing Baby John. Her
special war work is saving
more pennies and buying more
War Stamps to keep Baby
John’s War Bonds coming right
along regularly. She has al¬
most enough to invest in the
second $25 Bond.
“Buying Bonds for Johnny
is one way in which I can help
to shorten the war. I want my
husband to dome home soon, I
want Johnny to have a good
education waiting for him when
he grows up and I want to
help all the other mothers, fa¬
thers and children whose lives
are affected by the war. Buy¬
ing War Bonds is the one way
I can take part in the war, since
all my energies are devoted to
raising Johnny to be a credit
to his soldier-father and to fu¬
ture America.”
Other Connecticut parents
and relatives of tiny babies feel
the same way. To date 351 tiny
tots have become bondholders
in the “Bonds for Babies” pro¬
gram. A similar program has
been organized in other states
throughout the country.

goodbye.
But never mind the hard¬
ships which may be in store.
It’s still a swell feeling to “be
homeward bound. Nothing, not
even a war, ever alters those
ties that really bind. Home,
family, friends, and familiar
places—they are what make
the heart hum.
When the sergeant major
calls you over with “Better
start packing, fella, you're on
your way home,” you’re stunn¬
ed. You recover in a jiffy and
try not to show undue excite¬
ment. After all, you are a Ma¬
rine and a Marine is known as
a tough, hell-for-leather custo¬
mer, utterly devoid of senti¬
ment. But you make a sorry
job of it. Your heart skips a
couple of beats. Your voice
sounds strangely off key.
That night while you await
your plane on the morrow, you
don t sleep. You lie awake
building castles.
First, you want a furlough
in which to rest and readjust
thinking processes until war
takes on its proper aspect, in¬
stead of being the paramount
reason for your existence. And
you hope your war experience
hasan’t changed you so much
that this change of viewpoint
will be too difficult to achieve.
You want to be your old care¬
free self again—not hardened
and calloused of mind from
too close proximity to sudden
death and utter chaos. But
you’re afraid. War is a dirty
business. Uncertainty is its on¬
ly certainty. It has an insidious
venom.
You’ll Be Coming Back
About this time there is a
twinge of regret. You want to
go home just as much, but
there are pangs at leaving
