aid US in fattening our troop fund and
pay for the second year OF our war

We worked in our garden every day
this week and everything Is going
we'll. Bill PITT and Jim Lewis were
sent after a phantom horse and pillow
and hunted all over Kaimuki for one,
but they failed to find one. II they
had had a Webster's along they would
not have been fooled by the old trick.
Jim also failed to find a left-handed
monkey wrench.
