Write to him early and often. Your
letters are his lifeline of communica.
ton with all that he holds most dear
and has left behind him for the en-
tirely new world of the armed serv-
ices.
With his military duties he may
not have the time nor suitable op-
portunity to reply letter for letter
card for card. Do not expect him to
but do keep him posted on the small
CHEEKY happenings that make UP
the home routine.
This can be done by keeping in
touch as best you can with his
former associates, particularly the
members of the social groups with
whom he went around before he
joined up with Uncle Sans forces
Members of his one-time gang,
particularly the girls in it. will soon
enter into the spirit of this with
you, and will call you up with items
for your news bulletin" They will
send others along on their own, too
which makes for additional variety
and interest.
Your particular tidbits can be
listed in diary style If you do not
know their particular background
Your reward will come to you in
such comments as, Thanks for the
news items. They were simply swell
I feel almost up to date on the hap
penings back home"
Clippings Welcomed.
Clippings of all sorts. those about
so and SOS wedding. and those about
his friends who are in the news
without comments along the mar
gins, are nearly always passed by the
censors of overseas mail The clip
pings are eagerly welcomed, for as
every one knows there is something
about the appearance of ones favor
ite home town newspaper that
makes it more interesting than any
other form Of reading.
Don't be a gloom with detailed
accounts of your headache, your own
or some one else's operations and
worries. There isn't any use to be
a Pollyanna, either. But 1t Is well
to remember with all the constant
shift of men in military maneuvers
today. by the time your letter reaches
him it ought to give him lift, not
worry him with troubles that he
cannot possibly mitigate.
There isn't any excuse for put
ting on paper to a serviceman the
bromide. Il would have written
sooner only I was too busy" 1t
isn't our business to be too busy
to write to the servicemen in whom
We are especially interested. Any
one can manage postal a day,
either the penny ones that can be
purchased at any United States
post ONCE. or the picture card va
riety to which a | cent stamp has
to be affixed. The latter can take
the form of a continuous panorama
of familiar sights and scenes in his
