have been transferred to the military

them have gone either to the army or
navy. I was so glad to receive the pa
pers sent me, and certainly appreci
ate them here, as they give we sol
dier boys an idea what is happening
In our old home. .We boys from Ore
gon here in France certainly appre
ciate what the people of our state
have done for us, and their kind
treatment and thoughtfulness will go
down in history with us. I read with
Interest in The Enterprise of the
number of boys of the Oregon City
schools, who have enlisted and have
their stars on the service flag. What
an honor this is and something to be
proud of, believe me. Also read about
the service flag at the McLoughlin
hall representing the hoys from that
Institution. From all indications there
must be a bunch of boys from our lit
tle city represented in the army and
navy. I am anxious to receive little
Teddy's picture, and am looking for
