Dear Dribbles:
1 have received word from my
son George that he has arrived
back at Camp safely. George ar
rived home recently for a ten-day
furlough, and he enjoyed his visit
very much. The fact that he could
have these several days to spend
with his wife and parents meant a
lot to my son. Like all the Boys
in the Service, George says There
is no place like home" However,
George feels that he is not in the
U. S. Army to help himself alone.
He said that he wanted to help
others; that he was strong and
healthy and could take it. By the
way George talks, he wanted to do
his part to help our Country in this
time of need.
/ am very glad that my boy is
such a brave soldier, and 1 am
praying for him and the others who
are serving with him. I trust that
God will spare them, and bring
them back to us in the same good
condition as when they left, once
this war is over.
George wants to say Hello" to
all his friends. He would appreci-
ate it if they would drop him line
every so often while he is away.
He would be very glad to hear from
them. George has been writing to
some of the Boys whose addresses
he found in your Dribbles column.
have been sending my son The
Smyrna Times regularly since he
went away. He enjoys reading
Dribbles, therefore, am going to
keep on sending him the paper.
George is stationed just one thou
sand miles from home. He said the
ride is a long one, but it seems
mighty nice when you are headed
for home. Be it ever so humble,
there is no place like good old
Smyrna for him. George missed
seeing many of his former friends
around the last time he was home.
Said that this seemed so strange,
and sort of made things more lone
ly, but ne hopes that he will see
all the Boys after this war is over.
1 am praying every day that it
won't be long now, and may God
Bless my boy and all the other boys
in the Service.
AS ever a Dribble friend,
Mrs. George Langrell

Dear Sir:
This Is to inform you of the
change that has occurred in INV son
Smyrna times., 1943-06-10

Your letter was turned over to
Dribbles for publication in the Ser
vice column Mrs. Robinson. We
wish that you would consider this
as start in the right direction.
From now on, please keep us in
formed of your husbands move
ments, furnishing us with his sub
sequent changes of address and any
news items that you feel will be of
interest. In this manner YOU will
be helping Jack" to keep his
friends acquainted with current
happenings, as well as giving them
the proper address so that they can
write to him whenever they wish.
1t would also be in line to have
Jack" drop us a line so that he
will begin to feel at home himself.
Happy Birthday, Sailor, and many
more to follow.

Stanley's address. 1t is as follows:
Cpl. Edward S. Boyd, A. S. N.
3207631S, APO. No. 12056, San
Francisco, California.
Mrs. Mable Clark
1t was very nice Mrs. Clark to
have you inform us of your sons
change of address, but you should
have also mentioned his advance
ment in rating since he is now a
Corporal. You should feel very
proud indeed, and we join you in
this feeling. Stanley's address was
printed in The Smyrna Times, un-
der the date of May Goth with like
conditions prevailing as has been
mentioned directly above your let
ter. We have been wondering since,
if you included all of your sons
present address since the informa-
ton which you submitted did not
show to what Outfit he belonged.
If you have received any recent
letters from Stanley, please look at
the address shown carefully, and if
you find any change from that as
printed above in your letter, please
notify us.

the past thirty-three years and discarded

thing was tried in eight provinces in
Canada and in Norway, Sweden, Finland
