public criticism. If 1t was accused

touch the tender cord in the heart
of everyone of US should they
send us such as tooth brushes,
combs. shaving outfits, pillows,
pillow cases and the like, a small
testment, one that could be carri-
cd in the pockek. Will you see
them and tell them that though
we are for off, and doing what
our our country demands OF US
and that which every patriotic
and liberty loving American
should do, defend our flag, we
cherish the memory of the many
loved ones at home, and would
appreciate anything from home. "
