PEPPER MONEY
In the Middle Ages, pepper
was so valuable that men's
weulth was measured by their
pepper supply. Instead of "old
money bags." millionaires were
called "pepper sacks." In those
days, cinnamon and ginger were
kppt carefully away from drafts
lest a pinch or two be blown
away.

News
of the
Commandos
A year ago today the Com
mando service men's center was
In the making. The girls were
kulsomlning, painting, scrub
bing and gelling donations of
furniture for the opening of the
center. Now, a year later, the
Commandos are again busy
with paint brushes. The kitchen
is being enlurged, new light,
cheerful drapes were made and
hung by Sgt, Mabel Sodcratrom
and Captain Bernle Heidemann
at the large street window, and
throughout the center. Recently
the girls laid new linoleum In
the back service hall, painted
tho windows and hung new cur
tains. The girls even went so
far as to repaint the outside of
the building in the same col
ors, red, white and blue.
It is a tremendous satisfac
tion to see how much coopera
tlon and holp is given by- the
people in this community, Joe
Lake and Dean Starkcy, two
carpenters, are working now
nights at the center building
cabinets and cupboards in the
back service hall so there will
be places to atore dust mops,
extra supplies, etc.
Mrs. Clara Shaw learned
how inadequute our kitchen
was for washing dishes, and
gave the Commandos a $100 do
nation to be used In getting
running water, hot and cold, a
kitchen sink, and a shower to
be nut in for tho service men.
On busy days and nights it has
been difficult for the hostesses
and Commandos to take care of
the dirty dishes. There was
only one cold water tap for
water. Now a sink and running
water will speed up our service
and make the work much
easier. The local plumber and
steam fitters union are donating
the plumbing
The Commandos have been
invited many times the past
few week to visit Camp White,
but the demand for entertain
ment In the center make it im
possible for the girls to go.
Each Saturday night, while so
many men aro on maneuvers
around Bend, they will have an
orchestra and dance at the cen
ter. All during the evening the
girls will also make and serve
dozens of sandwiches to any
service men wanting them.
There are always three differ
ent kinds of sandwiches, sweet
and sour pickles, potato chips,
homcmado cookies made by a
local church or organization,
and coffee at all times.
We doubt if many people re
alize the Commandos are mak
ing and serving approximately
900 sandwlchc over a week
end. We are having some trou
ble with our points. We use
dozens of eggs a week, many
pounds of butter, cold cut
meats for sandwiches and
quarts of cream for coffee. We
would like to express our ap
preciation of one farmer who is
now bringing in cream.

In detail about the 12 wounded

will bo from Barnes hospital,
Vancouver, Wash,, four from
Lettcrman's In San Francisco,
and four from U. S. naval hos

ject of bringing wounded men
to Klamath Is truly one of the
high lights of our program. The
letters we receive from these
men after they return to their
respective hospitals are so op

Pfc. Thomas McDanici, a ma

spent 10 day with Merle West
from the V. S. naval hospital
at Mare Island. Tommy, as we
all learned to know him, is en
route to a hospital in Florida
where he will have another op
eration on his shoulder and
arm.
Lanny Ward, from St. Louis,

submarine, the Spearhead, this
week sent the Commandos a

A letter was received this
week from Wayne Fogelstrom,
a sailor who was here in March.
Wayne said, "I can walk now
without any crutches, but I still
limp pretty badly. Maybe I'll
get some leave in about another
month and, if I do, you can bet
I am going to come to Klamath
if I can possibly make it." It is
