Many Letters Sent Soldiers
Letters from soldiers in army

Dear Larry: We appreciate all
that you are doing in the Write

many OF he boys are receiving let
ters from girls that they've never
met, They're nice letters and some
times develop into deep friendship
between the soldier and the sender,
All the boys are inquiring about
your "Nitelife" column which was
missing from last weeks paper. Be-
lieve it or not, that's one Of the
nrst things the boys look for, your
"Nitelife" column. We're looking
forward 70 your column being back
in the paper this week
we-tIKe and are-behind- the
column one hundred per cent. Keep
up the good work. You're doing
much good in keeping up the

Station No. 3, For, Custer, Mich.
A Lady Writes
Dear Sir; Your article on Write
Our Soldiers" campaign interested
me very much. For some time,
have felt that writing the boys
who have been called into service
would be one way OF letting them
know we are for them 100 percent
and also in keeping them informed
on what's cooking on the home
front and I'd get a lot Of enjoy
ment for myself as well, for letter
writing is one OF my hobbies
Ihsve no brothers or close friends
in the service TO write to, and
would like 10 write some lonely
soldier. 20 hurry up and get YOU
campaign into full swing. I'll anx
iously be awaiting more develop
ments-Yours truly. Corinns X

Young Ebert entered the Gunni-
son Hospital last night with the
sick rancher, Bryan OFallon, "a
hours after starting on snowshoes
with his father and two others on
the mercy trip into the isolated
8,0o0-foot high Taylor Park region
Of Central Colorado.
Mr.. OFallon appeared to be 'over
the worst" of his pneumonia siege,
said doctor, but Ebert's right hand
and right foot are very badly fro
zen" The doctor said il was too
early to determine whether amputa-

necessary.

David responded with his forest
ranger father. A. j. Ebert: Forest
Ranger William Policy and C. D.
McGonegal, telephone lineman. to a
help appeal from Mr.. OFallons
wife.
Mrs. OFallon and a nephew had
taken the sick rancher 6 miles on
q sled from their ranch to the
Taylor Dam caretaker's cabin.
Tugging toboggan on which
they planned to bring back the
sick rancher, the four started Tues

far as car could go and miles
from Taylor Dam.
1T was awful tough going" re-
counted Mr.. McGonegaI. ON the
level the snow was about 2 feet
deep. But there were drifts 10 feet
deep"
Boy Struggled On.
The elder Ebert, bothered by an
old leg injury, had to flop on the
toboggan after pushing miles of
the way. While Mr.. Policy and Mr..
! McGonegal pulled him, young Ebert
struggled ahead for help.
David's hands and feet were
frozen before he reached the dam
about 8 am, nine hours after the
start Of the trip A man went out
and helped pull Ebert the last half
mile to the cabin.
After the exhausted Mr.. Policy
and Mr. McGonegal rested, they
continued on to Mr.. OFallon's
ranch for a team of horses and the
sled to carry the sick rancher, Mr..
Ebert and his son back TO Crystal
Creek.

These concerned especially state
