What To Send Overseas The New York headquarters of the USO recently held a survey among the visitors to the club as to what service men would like to get for Christmas. Soldiers, sailors and ma rines when questioned. Most of them answered in the spirit of service to thier millions of buddies, appraising from camp experience and contacts what would be most practical and acceptable gifts from home. If you haven’t sent that Christmas box yet, and are still undercided what to send, maybe this list will help you in your selection. Don’t forget that you must mail Christmas packages by the 1st of November to be received overseas by Christmas. In the Army, the majority would like to recieve cigarets, Water-proof wristwatch, portable radio, regulation shirts and wallet, Navy- Waterproof wrist watch, portable radio, wallet, photo in unbreakable frames, cig arets and overnight bags. Time after time, the plea is for small, nonbulky items that can be carried about and easily packed. So certainly it’s SMALL GIFTS unless the man is permanently stationed in this country. The majority of the Navy men would like to get a quick-working razor blade sharpener. The army also agrees with the Navy on this item The survay showed that a number of Navy men would ateo like to get religious articles. The Bible and New Testament are most wanted. Other things that they like are: cigaret lighters, pen and pencil sets, stationary, books, magazines, pipe to bacco, good regulation socks, water proof money belt, campact kit of bathtowels, small sewing kit com pletely fitted, warm slippers, good pocket knife, polished metal unbreak able mirror and subscription to home paper. Naturally the cakes that mo ther bakes lead the prepared list. Keepup those packages of good eats. Commissioned First Lieutenant Friends of Lt.

THE KID HAS GONE TO THE COLORS The Kid has gone to the Colors And we don’t know what to say: The Kid we have loved and cuddled Stepped out for the flag today. We thought him a child, a baby, With never a care at all, But his country called him man-size And the Kid has heard the call. He paused to watch the recruiting, Where, fired by the fife and drum, He bowed his head to Old Glory And thought it whispered: “Come!” The Kid, not being a slacker, Stood forth with patroit joy To add his name to the roster— And God, we’re proud of the boy! The Kid has gone to the colors; It seems but a little while Since he drilled a school boy army In a truly martial style. But now he’s a man, a soldier. And we lend him listening ear, For his heart is a heart all loyal. Unscourged by the curse of fear. His dad, when he told him, shuddered. His mother (God bless ber) criedj Yet, blessed with a mother nature. She wept with a mother pride. But he whose shoulders straightened Was grandad—for memory ran To years’ when he too, a youngster, Was changed by the flag to a man! —William Herschell JIM TODD GETS WINGS Cadet Jim Todd, son of Mr. and Mrs. Wilton Todd, received his Sil ver wings Saturday, October 10 at Albuquerque, New Mexico, after fin ishing his advanced training.

They are made of rubber ized material, easily inflated. At the Battle of Midway an Army Lieutenant, after bombing a carrier, was forced to bail out of his bomber. He was able to get a “fish eye” view of the entire battle from his collapsi ble boat and was later picked up by an American plane. Your purchase of War Bonds with at least ten per cent of your income every payday will help protect the lives of men who are flying for you. Get behind them today. U.s.

ROSEMONT CEMETERY It is very gratifying to see how many lots have been cleaned during the last week. Some, however, have failed to do anything. This gives the cemetery a raged apearance. It re quires very little work to clear the weeds from a lot and yet it adds so much to the general appearance of the whole cemetery as well as to the lot itself. Just a few minutes given to this work today and tomorrow would help wonderfully. Walk through the cemetery some time during the next few days and see if you are satisfied with the con dition of your lot. The Trustees appeal to you again for your cooperation. Z. F.
