Fred Boyer An Interesting description of conditions on Leyte is contained in a letter received by Mr. and Mrs. Fred Boyer, Roseourg, from their son. Lieutenant Fred Boy er, Jr., who, since writing the let ter Nov. 9, was hospitalized as a result of a bullet wound in the shoulder. Lieutenant Boyer was a member of the Roseburg Nation al Guard company and was com missioned after attending offi cer's school in Australia. He writ es: "Last night we had a mild ty phoon. It was mild because it left the palm trees and most of the house. Some of the palm shacks blew down along with our kitch en tent. The water didn't come down as rain; It just seemed to DAILY DEVOTIONS DR. CHARLES A. EDWARDS Another wartime Christ mas with all that it involves. How can we expect a Merry Christmas on a free exchange of Yuletide greetings in these circumstances? "But in despair I hung my head There is no peace on earth, I said For hate is strong and mocks the song Of peace on earth, good will to men." We turn to the children, to whom Christmas belongs, and of whom the Saviour said, "Of such is the king, dom of heaven." Are they light about expecting Christ mas and Santa Claus, as they are so apt to be right about most important matters? Oh, yes; for children never har bour hate. They believe the best. They never cease to hope. They enjoy gifts but they appear to get at least as much fun out of those they give as those that they re ceive. In the name of the Babe of Bethlehem let us live to make this more of a childlike world. "Then pealed the bells, more loud and clear God is not dead nor does He sleep, The wrong shall fail, the right prevail, Through peace on earth, good will to men." And so to one and all, to all the young men and wo men in the armed forces "a Merry .Christmas and a Happier New Year." Amen. FOR HER GIFT What could be more per feet than a lovely dia mond with matching wedding band. A gift to be cherished for a lifetime. M. Lavson JEWELER Convenient Terms 114 N. JACKSON roll across the ground in waves. It was something new to me, but the natives didn't seem to think it was anything unusual. "Getting out of New Guinea is like taking a trip. I was there so long it almost seemed like I lived there. "This is a lot better country than any I have seen since I left the states, with the exception of one spot in Australia. Farming keeps the people going, and the land is rich and well watered. Rice and corn seem to be the main crops. The rice is picked by hand. Men, vomen and kids wade in about six or eight inches of water to pick the crop. Natives Hate Japanese "This is the first time I have had a chance to see the direct effect of war upon civilians. Since the Japs moved in the people have had no chance to buy cloth es of any kind, so they are pret ty much in rags. Most of them speak some English and are just hard working farmers. Every day several Filipinos come in and want to joint the army. I have three in my platoon as scouts. I Thev can smell a Jap alone Tney can smeii a jap long oeiore I even know they are around. They are just farm boys who have lost a lot to the Japs and feel they have a score to settle. They really think they are some thing when they get an Ameri can uniform and a rifle. They are a me hell) because they know the country and where the Japs are apt to be. They get very rest less when We sit around and they just eat and sleep." Lt. Bover witnessed the arriv al of General MacArthur in the Philippines, the first day of the Leyte landing. Stork Given U. S.

How to roast a turkey without a roaster! It CAKl be doric-chsily hnd without :bkifcin'fc, too! But first, remember that in buying n turkey it's wise to figure nbout Jit to 1 lb. dr&wn weight) per Serving. To truss the bird (thus kecpintf it in COrhpiiet and attractive shape while roasting): Fold wings back so the lips are caught in back of the bird, and tic tightly around the whole bird using strong cord Then, using another length of cord, tie firmly around the end of each drumstick just above the joint, press them close to the body, unci tic 'them securely to the tailpiece (as shown above) dough Blanket roasting is the next step, and it requires neither roaster nor basting: . Have bird trussed nnd ready 2. Place on shallow pan or rtie'tal tray (may go eater-cornered if bird is large) 'I. Have oven good mid hot (450 l') 4. Mix 4 to 6 cups of flour (depending on size of bird ) with just enough water to muke stiff dough; knead slightly 5. Roll out to yt to Yi inch thickness, 'largo enough to cover bird completely 6.

To get desired color, increase heat if neces sary and continue cooking uncovered. Roasting time depends on the size of the bird; the Jurger tho turkey for example, the -fewer minutes per pound needed for 'tender results.
