I Lewis. The message came from so,
900 homes, and the spirit Of Christ
mas dealt a straight knockout TO Old
Man Homesickness.
Celebrations began the Sunday
prior to Christmas for thousands OF
the men whose homes were close
enough to permit them to visit them
and be back in three days time.
Every train that sped south and
north and east from Camp Lewis

fighting men Of the west. Portland

OF the Christmas cheer in the
base hospital at Camp Lewis, The
News said in part:
Christmas came to the base hos
pital in gloom dispelIing force
though there isn't a man in camp
who won't tell YOU that it's ample
compensation for little pain to be
given the attention Of the pretty Red
Cross nurses and kind medical staff.
From one ward-end to another
through the two score buildings,
Christmas was welcomed in wreaths
and trees and festoons Of green hung
by the nurses underline direction OF
Miss Morgan, who was Nurse Santa
for the men.
"Over the door Of Ward 20 1t found
expression in q huge sign, God Bless
Our Happy Home and a tree of
bright baubles and crimson drapings
with great piles Of packages, one or
more for every man piled under IL.
Even the men still dreaming the
dreams Of ether, smiled family in
that sleep at the shouts of glee from
their fellow sufferers, the camarad=

good spirit that rose through win
dows and transoms and brought in
passersby to share 1t.

HOLLAND WOMAN COULDN'T
BEAR TO MAKE MONEY
OUT OF THE u. S.

A local woman has found a new
method of showing her patriotism
and of aiding the Ottawa County
Red Cross at the same time. When
her interest on her Liberty Bond
came due this woman took her cou-
pom, cashed in on it and received
the sum of S1.5O that her money
loaned t> Uncle Sam had earned
for her.
But after receiving the cash she
found that it would be quite impos-
sible for her to spend the money for
ordinary prosaic things. The SEN
timents of patriotism connected with
the Liberty Bonds somehow gave
the one dollar bill and the half dol
lar bill and the half dollar in silver
a new meaning to her. 1t was not
just ordinary money but something
invested with the spirit of the strug-
