Playground

With snow in the air it seems
out Of place to talk of the great
outdoor evergreen playground. .
But with the prospect Of next
summer seeing the greatest in
flux the state has ever known Of
eager tourists, now is the time to
start planning. It has been esti-
mated that 100000 carloads OF
out-of-staters will visit Grand
Coulee dam next summer. Most
of these people will come rubber
necking around the home Of the
history making Atomic bomb.
Actually we have little right
here to hold tourists. Sacajawea
park, the Navy Base, Horse Hea-
ven, maybe. What else? Not
much right at the present time.

portunity after the construction
of the Umatilla dam puts a big
lake at our door to provide some
thing special in recreation.

plans now. An affiliate Of the

two shortest days In the year.
They are December q and q.

and will set at 4:l9 p. m, on the
two short days, providing 8 hours

Dear Friends:
We have just received a card bring
ing the sad intelligence Of the pass
ing Of our close and dear friend, Mitt
Lee.
This was a shock to my father more
so than the rest of us because of the
fact they were more closely allied
through manv years than the rest Of
us. This does not mean chat his wife,
sons and daughters are not equally
concerned over Brother Lees passing.
For the past few days my father
has been indoors nursing an affected
toe, which is improving.
He remarked to me, however, when
l related t h e news to him, that If
there was any way for him to be
present at the funeral he would
He began to relate to me the out
standing work and love that he had
toward his church nd community
He further remarked that his place
would be hard to fill.
This card of sympathy expresses il
small way the love and respect thai
we all had for Brother Lee.
May God bless and preserve you ant
may the church and community be abb
in the near future to point to som
one who has taken the place Of Nit
Lee

Though pressed for time, Capt.

While in the China-India- Burma war theater with the famous 20th Bomber Command, Hank tried to touch" the Mess Sergeant for a few extra cans of food, but the young lad was afraid to take a chance" because some sort of special ticket was required to get anything from the mess.
 Conversation, started by Green berg, developed the fact that the youngster came from Hartford, Con- necticut; so Captain Greenberg, 8 discriminating Individual, gave the kid this one: Hartford? Why, that's where I started playing baseball for a living. (Ed Note: he did, too, in 193O, batting but PA in r games, hitting home runs) OK, so you won't give me anything to eat? I'm going to write to ART MCKINLEY and tell him about you!" After that one, and for fear the able and pop ular Hartford Times sports editor might think he had gone wrong" since he left Hartford, the mess ser geant gave Greenberg anything he wanted from the kitchen, any time he wanted 1t, which was often enough, thereafter.
