A poster comes to life."This reminds me of home," said Sergeant Vineyard as he downed a forkful of Mrs. Woolslayer's devil's food cake. When Mrs. Woolslayer said "I'd like you to try a piece of my cake," the welder and the Army Sergeant forgot all about the war and fighting and production, and embarked on a Sunday afternoon gossip session the like of which you'll find in Iowa, Kentucky, Oregon or Vermont.

Proudly sitting next to Sergeant Vineyard is Georgia Ann Woolslayer, eight. Allegheny-Steel, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
