In each package of goodies that went on the
Christmas ship was a thought from the folks at
home to tell the boys that proud and loving hearts
await their return.
I ar from the firing line, honor and joy are
with us -enough for all; but the laurels for our
pan in Victory belong to “ Pershing’s Bovs”—and
the boys on the “Bridge of Ships.”
But let us not forget that continued saving of
both POOD and M O NR\ is necessary and that we
still have many opportunities for further serving
