Nazis 'Welcome
Bend Sergeant
That the German propaganda
press is rolling overtime was wit
nessed by Sgt. Edward Hall, son
of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Hall of
Bend, who with other G. I.'s of his
outfit, received printed greetings
from Germans in the valley be
fore American forces crossed the
Ruhr river. -
Couched in what was Intended
to be "Yankee sarcasm", the leaf
lets read, in part: "Welcome to
the 35th division! Considering the
fact that you are new-comers, we
would like to do everything to
make you feel at home. . We ex
tend to you a cordial greeting and
a hearty t welcome to the Ruhr
valley.
"We regret that you must come
to this unpleasant district, but, as
usual, you have to take over this
section where the air is heavy
with lead. The British have been
withdrawn from here because
this same atmosphere didn't suit
them very much. As always,
' under these conditions, the British
prefer to let you do their work.
I , welcome cxienaeu
You have tried to veil your ar
rival here by doing such things
as removing your divisional in-
signias. Nevertheless, a little
bird told us all about it . . , .As
we said before, we shall try to
make you feel at home. We hope
to make every day here seem like
'the glorious Fourth' there'll be
plenty of fireworks. We know
what vou are meant tn rtn u'p
! know, also, what you want to do.
You want to return home as soon
as possible! Better across than
a cross."
Several days later, Allied forces
surged across the Ruhr to acept
the welcome and challenge of
the cocky Jerries.

The Fact of Resurrection
An Easter
Message
Millions of people in liberated lands will observe
Easter this year with the conviction that they
themselves have experienced a resurrection
from living death.
In many American homes, too, where glad
news has recently come telling, of the release
of loved ones from prison camps, Easter will
be a day of prayer and rejoicing.
And to those upon whom sorrow has fallen,
Easter will come with its comforting assurances
of resurrection and final reunion.

BREWING ART
The name of a Van Dyke or a Michael Angelo never
graced a canvas unless the genius of the painter was
truly reproduced and perfection had been attained,
although it may have taken years of tedious effort to
create the masterpiece which justified the use of that
signature.
When the name "Bohemian Club" appears on a label
it represents the same degree of perfeiflion, the same
care and painstaking effort required to produce a
masterpiece of the brewing art, a genuine Old Bo
