Dear Friends,
Thank much the
gifts of pretzels and the Bulletin
It is a wonderful thing you are
doing for all of us in the Armed
Forces and I know that all of us
appreciate your thoughtful
kindness, especially those over
you so for

Since IT am especially fond of
good pretzels, and I've never
had any really good ones out-
side of Lancaster County, vou
may be sure that you could not
have sent a better reminder of
life at home.
I have enjoved the Bulletin
and its news of everyone at
home. Things seem much more
lively now then they were in
1927 when 1 left to enter the
Naval Academy. Except for
short, infrequent visits I have
not been back home.
I hope you will keep up the
fine work of maintaining the!
ties with home.
I wish you and all my friends
at home a Merry Christmas and
|a Happy New Year.

Dear Folks,
Once again, I am the recipient
of two of vour fine gifts. Thanks
loads for the pretzels and the
Bulletin. The pretzels were de
licious, but. didn't last nearly
long enough. I am sure it goes |
without saying that the Bulletin
|is more than welcome. i
You people are doing a swell |
job and your efforts are really
appreciated.
Thanks again and keep put-
ting that Bulletin in the mail. |
Sincerely,

Remembrance Committee:
I wish to thank you
much for the Christmas pack- |
The contents were delici- |
ous. I think it's safe to say that
they were devoured in a mat- |
ter of a few minutes. The fel-|
lows asked me to express their

understand exact- |
Committee stood
for. After explaining it, the best |
I could, they exclaimed that,
“There is nothing like that or- |
ganized in their home towns.
But they don't realize that Mt. |
very |
| Joy is the most wonderful small |
{town in the states.”
I will probably be home be- |
fore this letter arrives at its des- |
tination, and it certainly will be |
wonderful to be with friends!
and relatives again.
I have received my orders |
concerning transfer to my next |
base which will be Ellington A. |

ing assigned to temporary duty |
there, previous to Air Cadet |
training, which will begin ap- |
proximately 6 months from the |
time I arrive at said base. {
Before closing I wish to offer |
the Germer
family.
Sincerely yours,

those received by others; and how |
seldom does God hear any note of
praise for blessings of the spirit!
This is a high plane, to be
reached only by high souls, thos
who have been intimate enough
with Christ to absorb his spirit and
attitude. Stupid people, who do not
| have very good minds, cannot be
expected to appreciate blessings of
the mind; and people with small
and wizened souls cannot feel
blessings of the spirit. And only
those who practice the Golden Rule
every day, so as to put themselves
| into others’ places, and who culti-
vate the gift of sympathy so as to
‘rejoice with those that rejoice and
weep with those that weep,” can
have the heart te be thankful when
others receive the highest bless:
ngs of heaven.
