Melvin Nichol
Tells of Life
In Philippines
. AUMSVILLE Pvt. Melvin
Nichol, serving with the . army
combat engineers in the Philip
pines, writes his wife, the former
Dorothy Drake of Aumsville:
"During the day our camp looks
like a side show with Filipinos
wanting to trade eggs, bananas,
chickens and so on.
Some 'of the people speak pretty
good English. Most of them are
barefooted while some of them
- wear wooden shoes with a leather
strap over the toes- They saved
. their clothes and hid them from
the Japs and wear them now since
we came. All of the people be-
, lieve in raising many children and
all you can see is children.
: The people aren't very dark.
They look much like the Spanish.
Some of them have horses that the
Japs did not take from them and
. have a two wheeled buggy to ride
in. ; Some have : caribou to use.
' They have to let them lie down
in mud holes every three hours
. or they will die.
Houses are built of split bamboo
and are about live feet above the
' ground, with- thatched- roofs.
They have ' beautiful churches
here. - They .are made , of cement
blocks and. are supposed to be three
or four hundred years old. They
are very big and have steel bars
. over", the 4 windows. - There are
' i many bells in them that are play
ed when someone dies. . The peo
ple are pretty religious.
The women are very short but
have, a ggod build. One was just
hcre selling crabs and shrimp.
They are fresh water crabs, small
er than those at home.
Women carry rice on their heads
and can carry a hundred pounds
or more. " The men lay ; around
while, the women work. The wom
en do our washing for us and they
do a very. "good job.
They have dances here when
someone gets married and play
American songs and dance in the
grass.
Teachers taught the children to
hold up two fingers and say 'Vic
tory.M They teach them other
words in English. They can say
"Hello." ... r
The people want American ra
i tions and really think they're
' good!
Filipinos raise mostly rice, some
sweet potatoes, cotton, sugar
cane, peanuts, sweet corn and a
few beans. There is a fruit called
Popius that grows on a trie and
tastes like a muskmelon and or
ange mixture."
Private Nichol has been over
seas 18, months and has seen ac
tion at Munda and Bouganville.
