Dribbles hopes that you will make
yourself right at home from this
date on. Come back and visit with
your reader friends from time to
time so that they will be informed
as to how this mans Army life is
agreeing with one of the native
sons. Dribbles would like all the
Boys and Girls in the Service to
feel the very same way.
Your description of your sur
roundings down at Amarillo Army
Air Field sounds as though life was
not treating you any too roughly.
On the other hand, we believe that
most everyone realizes, that Army
ife is not a einch by any means.
The big thing that counts for every
Boy and Girl who serves, is the
spirit they possess. This many
times makes all the difference when
the pull gets a bit hard.
As to becoming a member of the
American Legion, after you are
mustered out of service, that is one
moment which all of our present
post members are looking forward
! to. The Boys of World War 1 are
now approaching the age when we
will be most pleased to have young
er blood step in to carry on the
many projects which the American
Legion has started. Then too, those
of you having served in World War
II will no doubt have still other
movements which you will wish to
add, as time passes on.
The David c. Harrison Post, No.
IA recently held an installation
meeting in your home town. True,
it was an occasion for installing the
new officers for both the American
Legion Post and Unit of the Ladies
Auxiliary, but at the same time the
local Legionnaires wished to have
all you Boys feel that they are car
rying on until such time as new
members can take over. Well all
be quite happy and proud when this
time arrives. In publishing such
statement, Dribbles feels that he is
conveying to you, and to all the
members of our Armed Forces, an
invitation to join in our efforts af-
ter the present conflict is ended.
There will be place for everyone,
no reserved seats will need to be
sold in advance. All those who join

The contribution of Neal Bason's
address was very timely. Dribbles
had just taken his card from the
file with the intent of asking some
one to supply the correct address.
Our records reveal that we entered
Meals address June 18th, 1912 and
had not heard concerning him since.
At that time, the address was the
same, except the Army Post Office
number and rank. Dribbles would
appreciate some further informa-
tion about Neal Bason. Therefore,
would the young lady who sent in
Meals address change please write
in and give us a better line on the
young man. At the same time,
she might write to Neal and tell
him that we would be glad to hear
from him direct, No doubt he
could write a very interesting let
ter concerning his present sur
roundings. For the young lady
that kindly furnished Meals ad-
dress: We did not give Meals To-
cation because it would inform too
many of the location of his outfit,
but thank you for having passed it
along. Now how about fulfilling
our request? Dribbles will omit
your name in publication, if you
wish it.

Restyled to suit the times are these
old-fashioned icebox favorites-Jelly
Cake and Trihe. Once made with
heavy cream seasoned lavishly with
sugar, both dishes have been re-
designed, use unrationed seasonings
and sauces.
Wartime refrigerator pudding now
is made with graham crackers, egg
white, and tiny bit of jelly. Today's
Trife, descendant of Virginia gentry,
has been simplifed and streamlined,
too.
Once a resplendent dish of Rata
fla Cakes, Mackaroons, and Naples
Biscuits" this dish now is made of
ordinary sponge cake. Sack, rich
custard, and frothy syllabub used
to be the topping. Now apple butter,
and a thin boiled custard serve in
stead.
Chilled until the three are one,
this Trifle has a tender texture, a
high-spiced flavor, a richness worthy
of an F.F.V. dessert. Try it so:

Dear Sir:
1t has been sometime since
have written you, but in this area
it seems that news is scarce for a
change. Everything here at pres
ent is calm except the weather.
This is very hot. 1 used to think
that Clayton was hot during the
Summer, therefore, found COM
fort in Lake Como situated at the
edge of Smyrna. Over here the
heat is terrific. Once in awhile we
go for a dip in the sea. / can't for
the life of me figure out the natives
when it comes to hot weather.
While we are sweating continuous
Iy with only limited amount of
slothing about our bodies, they go
around wrapped up in blankets and
looking very cool.
Our boys are having the best of
relations with the people who live
in this part of the world. They are
always willing to trade eggs (eggis)
for cigarettes. I have eaten so
many eggs since have been locat-
ed here, that I am ashamed to look
a hen in the face.
During my stay here I have
learned quite a few Arabic words
plus the art of writing my name in
the same language: for example
lHere Bill goes to show us how his
name is written. Dribbles would
like to pass the information along
as nearly correct as possible
Therefore, the best understanding
of what Bill Carrow's name would
look like in Arabic script is to ask
all the readers to make a capita
written l, then follow it with cap
ital V rather off-sided to the right
of the letter.
BY the time we leave this area
probably all the Boys will have tt
learn to speak English over again
Very few of the natives can speal
English, so the result is we find il
most necessary to try and make
ourselves understood. This make:
us try to learn the local language
rather than having the native:
learn ours. 1t is very desirable fol
trading and buying trinkets, etc.
whenever we go into town.
/ must close for now, but will
write again soon. Before signing
off, l am attaching a five franc
note. This is the type of money
we spend where l am located.
thought that you might like t.
have it as a souvenir. Can you i'm

and best wishes to all the othe

good luck throughout their term o

some other means of allowing them
to expend their excess energy. But
we only do this to better direct
their efforts, and to conserve ma
terias to improve the war efficiency.
However, just as ong as the Ser

and there are no excuses.
We are granted liberty every

ing till 10 Sunday evening. Liberty
used to be granted till Monday
morning, but there was too much
sleeping in classes and something
had to be done to provide the fol.
lows with little more rest.
Some phases of our school life
depend n the class as a whole. The
time liberty starts on Saturday de.
pends upon the way we march tC
and from school, also the cleanli.
ness of our quarters. We have g
test every Saturday morning on the
subjects that have been covered
during the week. We must pass
with rs per cent grade, or nc
liberty will be granted. If a class
man fails to make a rs per cent
grade, he will be mustered in from
1870 until 900 every evening for 6
week to study.
1 believe that 1 have given you &
fairy good idea as to the manner
in which our school operates, wha
we do, etc.

idea that they work on the prin-
ciple of keep the heat out, whereas
our folks do just the reverse. The
native clothing is selected through
years of experience in their own

to contend with would be the fire.

Good old Clinton. Right back to
visit again. That's the spirit, son.
We hope, with you, that you'll get
that leave after you shove-off from
your present training Company.
No argument, I'll buy the large
orangeade, if or when you arrive
back in the "Old Home oTwn." We
know that you'll enjoy short visit
with all your friends here in Smyr-
na Perhaps if you can have the
word passed along to the Comman-
dant that the folks down home
would like to see you before you
shove-off to prove your power, he'll
approve of the leave. 1t doesn't
really matter how you accomplish
the job, just so you don't jump

of bad.
I You're full one hundred percent
correct about Delaware son. 1t is

when it comes to taste and texture,
Delaware has taken six Washing
ton apples and reduced their taste
and texture down to one Delaware
apple. That a person would have
to consume all six of the State of

that can be obtained from the sin
gle Delaware fruit. Yes! Tell
them that, and stick by your guns.
