Mrs. Havvey Hawthorne has re-
ceived word that her brother Lt. D.
Lee Kistler, previously reported
missing in action, was killed in ac-
tion, June 24, 1944. He was on a
mission over the Rloesti Oil Field
when his plane was hit by a flak.
All members of the crew bailed out
when Lt. Kistler's and another crew
member's parachutes failed to open.
The other nine members of the crew
came dgwn safely.
He was the son of H. C. Kistler, of
Carlisle, formerly of this place.
Oct. 1, 1944—Dear Sir: Just a few
lines to let you know that I enjoy
receiving and reading the Bulletin.
1 have been getting it every week
since you have first started sending
it to me. I also wish to inform you
of my change in address. I Will be
stationed here for a short time only.
Then 1 will be sent to Fort Benning,
Ga., to start paratroop training.

NEW GUINEA SPRINGTIME
The palm trees are swaying in the
breeze,
The birds are singing as if pleased,
A parrot is flying over head
Hunting a place to make his bed.
The flowers are blooming all ‘round

The kittens are playing with a rub-
ber mouse
The ships are sailing in the bay
Springtime is here, the first cf May.
Now Springtime has come and we
are all gay,
For we will be home some bright

A lustful monster hovers near,
It's ruthless smirk is always nigh,
A fearful dread of all who live
For where it strikes. there men must
die.
Some bully nation large and s'rong,
Desires a lesser country’s skill;
And thus to satisfy their wants,
These mirthless vigilants must kill.
Yet how can man cammit himself,
To sin for victory in a fray.
Why mutilate your fellow-men,
Let God who gave, take life away
And after all what gain is war?
There's nought but suffering whe:
it’s done.
It leaves behind this scribe to man
