Too much stress cannot be laid up
on the splendid tonic effect letters
from home have on the soldiers Of
Camp Travis. These letters are
looked forward to with a zest that
can be compared only with the expec-
tations Of child at Christmas time.
When the mail comes and is distrib-
uted and there is no word from rel
atives and friends. it takes terrible
amount Of mental shaking to loosen
the feeling Of disappointment in the
heart Of the soldierboy Mother is
naturally expected to write often, and |
mother seldom fails her boy But
Maud and Mabel, Elsie and Alice are
the ones the soldier boys think about
tht hardest and fret over the most
when they fail to write There is
Just a sort of feeling that can't be
accurately described in the hearts Of
the soldier boys that when they don't
hear from their sweethearts, perhaps

In a small town i'm England reported, the women
have effectively combatted high price enemy. The
farmers from the countryside around Whitehaven had
been demanding exorbant prices for potatoes in spite
Of government price shilling stone-a little
over 81 a bushel The decided that they needn't
stand for such robbery they tosether and acted
First the town belman sent around the town
telling the people the correct price and warning them
not TO pay any more than that. When the farmers
took IN their stand in the market place they were
greeted by throngs of all doing their market
ing at once and all insisting paying more than
the official price for their patatoes.
OF course TIE farmers yielded. There was nothing
else for them to do in the face Of such determined
action.
We wonder what would happen il the women of our
community took similar action.
