train 10 make my first Missouri c. c. visit. and TO
attend other meetings in Missouri and Kansas dur
ing the holidays The road by the way OF Clinton
was carefully watched. hut c. G. appeared for
our meeting AZ the Union Depot. Kansas City,
Odessa, and at Odessa we met Brother John L.
Wagner, who was anxious to show us the hospi-
tality of Camp $780, Sons of Veterans. Then we we're
driven four miles into the country. where we
joyed splendid supper at the table OF Mrs. Wag-
oner, whose pleasant manners and unique disposl-
ton caused us to wonder if all G. G. homes had
such a liberal mother After many pleasant
thoughts were exchanged the jovial Brother Wag-
oner encouraged the Commander and me to repose
for the night. rs Sunday was Christmas, and the
c. C. girls would surely call in by dawn.
Christmas very cold and very disagreeable,
all the @. C's who could stand the weather were
G. NJ. WakemRn. Adjutant, and Nj. Ed. Stanfeld,

had a pleasant, social day discussing the many

Proctor at her home, and found everything just
suited to our tastes.
