Letter Travels
21,000 Miles
If you've thought of complain
ing to the post office becatiso
your mail doesn't reach you on
time, consider the case of the let
ter that traveled over 21,000
miles `with eight new forwarding
addresses before it reached its
destination, and then was only
50 miles from the College where
the letter was sent out to begin
with.
S/Sgt. 0. E. C. hadn't turned
in his lessons for a correspond
ence course in accounting which
he was taking at the College
his instructor, Joseph F. Bradley,
wrote to him at his camp in
Georgia on February 12 to s'eo
what the difficulty was.
But 0. R. C. moved too Pilot
and the letter followed him from
Georgia through Utah, California,
Bollandia in New Guinea, Leyte
in the Philippines, back to tho
United States, through two Army
hospitals, and. finally caught up
with him at Lewisburg, Pennsyl-
Vania on July 1.
In the meantime the sergeant
had tried to study (he took his
correspondence course with him
wherever he went) but events
moved too swiftly. Howevr, he
assures Mr. Bradley that he has
not lost interest in his course,
and he says that under present
circumstances it will be even
more valuable to him. When he
returns to a hospital July 21 he
will resume work on the lessons
right away.
