FINE SPIRIT SHOWN BY
DEPARTING SOLDIERS
CHEEKY LETTERS COME FROM
THE BOYS AS THEY LEAVE
CAMP FOR EMBARKATION.

One of the heartening things in
connection with these war times is
the fine spirit of the soldiers as they
leave the camps to embark for
France, and their CHEEKY letters as
they are leaving our shores are an
unfailing source of comfort to the
folks back home.
Mrs. Winchester is just in receipt
of a communication from her son
Howell, who wrote while en- route
from Camp Mcclellan to Camp Mills
at Long Island Every sentence of
the interesting letter breathes the
true American spirit of loyalty and
optimism. Of special significance is
the high tribute the young man pays
the Red Cross workers. At every
station the troops were shown every
courtesy and showered with tempting
lunches, fruits, candies, ETC., by the
large number crowding about the
stations to do them honor and bid
them God-speed. Young Mr.. Win
chester has been greatly impressed by
the unselfsh service Of the Red Cross
workers and does not understand how
any one can stay out of an organiza-
ton that is giving such valiant SER
vice at home and overseas to help
win the war.
