John Salem Uses Hobby
To Say Xmas Greetings

John Salem is turning his hobby
to good use in spreading holiday
cheer around the Post these days.
Interested in art and painting for
several years, Mr.. Salem is quite
adept at carving and painting and
samples of his work may be viewed
in the window of the PIX Fruit Mar
ket.
The storeroom window is color
fully adorned with a scene of the
three Magi, two of whom kneel and
bow in reverence. At night the scene
is vividly lighted. Yellow candles,
green holly leaves and red berries
outline the inscription, Season. S
Greetings" in an oil-painting lay
out which was also done by Mr..
Salem.
Salem, who comes from Douglas,
lives in Apache Flats. He handles
beer for the Fort Huachuca Post
Exchange.

During the eventful day, the par

A Day in the Country
By PFC. CLELIE 7. PECOT

The set time for departure ar
rived. The girls fell out" all trim
and sharp, having each button fit
ting neatly in it's hole, stocking
seams just so, and every curl in
place. The signed roll was called
and with all present or accounted
for our waiting was ended. Last,
but not least, glanced out of the
side window and could see two large
bags in movement toward the bus
Straining my eyes I could see legs
beneath but not the person. AS the
image came closer it was none other
than "Ole Sarge" In she fell and
the bags of what we needed" hand
ed down the line.
The motor started and off we
were, happy group, clad in O.D. The
rustic and hustle of the vehicle was
ignored as the tempo changed and
we began singing Christmas carols.
A few talking of other things and
watching the wayside sights soon
joined us. Silence gripped the group
as the melody continued. Our dis
tance shortened as the wheels of
time rolled on. Our ride was short
but enjoyable; the songs changed
fast to slow and modern to those
of long ago. Fleeting seconds and
then our visiting territory.
Squint-eyed and with ears open
we dismounted following our guide
for the day Boothill Graveyard held
much interest. The chattering

their way between stickers and
shrubs to find the graves of men

GI Choir in England Gives
Thanksgiving Concert

England than 5000 British
erS crowded Liverpool Cathedral on
November 25, Thanksgiving Day, to
hear a choir of American Negro
soldiers in return engagement in
the church, one of Englands largest
and most impressive.
In its first concert in the cathed-
raj, the choir drew what Liverpool
newspapers described as the biggest
audience in the history of the build
ing.
Chaplain William Smith of Sioux
Falls, South Dakota, organized the
choir soon after the men arrived in
England with their engineer regi-
ment. They have sung in many Eng
lish churches, including Holy Trinity
Church, Stratford- on Avon, where
Shakespeare is buried.

it is excelled by not many American
towns. The relics and monuments
of years gone by were fascinating
to each individual. Dance halls,
theaters, and what have you.
Don't let anyone tell you that
WACs haven't had the pleasure of
eating at the Crystal Palace-the
place where SO many men have been
killed over liquor or women. Quite
interesting, eh? Smile.
The lunches of cold cuts, eggs,
ETC., made a lovely repast. Now and
then an old settler would wander in
the place, head to the bar, and only
look in amazement at the uniform
clad women. AS the group ate
moved over and slid onto a stool at
the bar. Memories of stories told of
women dancing, bandits riding
through the town stopping long
enough only to pick up the goods of
interest to them, glass breaking, and
shots fired travelled through my
mind as I began to sip a drink.
If ever you are in the metropolis
of Tombstone be sure to visit the old
est Negro citizen-John Swane, now
known as Mr.. Slaughter who came
to Tombstone in 1876. He can tell
very interesting tales. Time passed,
