We have had two Red Clean services. The first came January 31 and the sec ond Feb a. The trot time we - only re ceived four boxes and the second three. Having seven fellows In my squad, we had a great time figuring out bow four boxes would get to seven men equally After all the bops had their nay, we Settled it this way. Wu opened all the packs, made seven places, and then they all bad their say as to what should go on each pack or pile. After this operation by formula. we used the lottery spstem in saying who should draw the loot, for each had his epe on one special pile, hoping that they would get thin or that one So I numbered seven muds and put them In my hat, shook them up well, then the fun began. The oldest thew first (be cause ago comes before beauty in the service), holding his number till all had drawn. Then all together, face up We alloted our pile of goodies and toilet articles, mem. chocolate, dates and figs. After this they .. swapped .
