preciated? Well, let's take a look
at a few of them and then judge for
yourself.
Here's one from M/Sgt. Doyl H.
Moore. He writes, 'There is abso-
lutely nothing nicer than getting a
letter from home. Thanks a mil
lion"
Pfc Morris Snively writes, ct APP
preciate hearing from you because
you all have something new each
and every time you write"
Cpl. Harry D. Speaker, writing
from England, says: ST got your let
ter yesterday and do appreciate all
the news after being away from
home so long"
And finally, Joseph Shifier, U. S.
Navy, writes: II appreciate your
letter, for anything from the home
town, especially the news, cheers
fellow up more than you would
think. l am getting used to being
away and not hearing from home,
but it makes one downhearted, but
as soon as the news comes from
home its all over"
Yes, folks, those boys out there do
appreciate their letters every month,
so make sure that your boy gets one
too. AS soon as he is transferred
overseas, call $500, ask for Mrs.
Helen Fisher, recording secretary,
and when she answers the phone
just give her that overseas address
That's all there is to it.

World War was mainly fought in
trenches, with troops sometimes re-
naming in the same area for weeks
at time-World War II is fought
in foxholes or over open country,
with Divisions in Africa today and
in Italy tomorrow. But there is one
phase of Military life that is COM
mon to both wars - the lad who
doesn't get any mail is the loneliest
soldier in the world
But if the Washington County
Letter League has its way, there's
going to be no lonely soldiers from
this county, for the league is doing
its best to see that every man and
woman from Washington County,
serving overseas in any theater of
war, gets a CHEEKY letter once a
month with news of what's going on
in the old home town.
The league-its officers are Thorn
as W. Pangborn, president; Hon.
Joseph D. Mish, vice president, and
c. Neill Baylor, secretary - asks
nothing of the parents and relatives
of men and women serving overseas,
but that they send in the overseas
address of the service man or wo-
man concerned. The League does
the rest. It writes the letters, gets
them mailed (the October letter is
now in the maiD and pays all the
cost.

AAA School Safety
Patrol On the Job

With the reopening of the public
schools, the AAA School Safety Pa
troll of Washington County have re-
turned to their posts on the life
saving front. These Patrols consti-
tute an investment in the protection
Of the lives and limbs Of our boys
and girls and a valuable contribu-
ton to the safety and welfare of our
community.
Through their first full school year
of wartime service last year, the
Patrols maintained in this area and
throughout Maryland the same rec
ords of remarkable efficiency they
had attained in the pre-war years.
Then, as always, the results they
achieved were measurable only in
terms of what didn't happen-acci-
dents, injuries and fatalities involv-
ing children on their way to and
from school.
In the months ahead, the work of
the AAA School Safety Patrols as
sumes added Importance because of
the great changes which wartime
conditions have effected in traffic
movement. Total traffic volume
may be below levels in some dis
tricts, but it is approaching all-time
peaks of concentration in others
where the mass movement of CT
william traffic is superimposed upon
abnornally heavy truck traffic. The
latter factor, considered alone, auto
matrcally increases the value of the
Patrols, because accidents involving
heavier vehicles necessarily are
more serious and costly when they
also involve pedestrians, young or
old.
Mothers and fathers throughout
Maryland are sending their children
to school each day with greater con-
fidence because they know that the
AAA School Safety Patrol will be
on duty. This faith is well-founded.
Trained patrolmen serve thousands
of children daily, aiding them at in
tersections and reminding them of
safety rules. It is a privilege to be
chosen for this position, an expression
of trust in ability and judgment.
Consciousness of the need of strict
attention to traffic dangers develops
in officers and those whom they
guide that sense of responsibility
which is the nucleus of good citizen
ship.
Already far beyond the expert
mental stage, the AAA School Safe
ty Patrol, sponsored in Washington
County by the Hagerstown branch
of the Automobile Club of Mary
land, Earl H. Howard, branch man
ager, has taken its place as a vital
force in training the youth of the,
community.

Acquires Bronze of
Katharine Cornell
By Florence s. Berrpn1an

The Phillips Memorial Gallery
has recently placed on view hand
some new acquisition and also is

two good reasons for paying a visit
there before next Saturday.
The latest addition to the gal
lery's collections is a sculptured
head Of Katharine Cornell, by
Guitou Knoop 1t is a beautiful
bronze, in which the sculptor has
captured the individuality of the
actress face, as we'll as its unusual
bone construction, and has infused
the work with simplicity and seren-
ity.
The artist, of Dutch origin, is
Russian born, but became French
citizen after living in Paris for II
years, where she studied under An
tome Bourdelle and Charles Des-
piau. The influence of the latter is
apparent in the Cornell head. After
two solo exhibitions in Paris. Miss
Knoop was invited to bring her eX-
hibition to the Arts Club of Chicago
in 1885. She spent nine months in
the United States and her eXhibi-
ton was shown also in Dayton,
Ohio, and New York City.
She returned in 1859 and again in
1912 and now is in Washington,
doing the head of Joseph Clark
Baldwin, member of the United
States House of Representatives
from New York City. She has done
portrait heads of a number of we'll
known people, among them Andre
Maurois, Otto H. Kahn, DR.. Serge
Koussevitzky, the Duchess of Wind
sor and the present Mrs. Harry Hop
kins, not to mention all. She is rep
resented in the permanent collec-
tions of the Musee du Luxembourg
