Holiday Lights To Burn At Home One of the nicest things about the coming holiday season is the anticipation so many Klamath Falls families have looking forward to returning service men and women gathering around the fireside once more. There will probably be more family reunions this year than in the past five. It's especially wonderful for the parents who have brought their sons in to this office fathers and mothers who have their boys back after the long years that these men were prisoners of war. This year the lights are on again not only in their ; : homes but in their hearts One of these men told us about a Christmas in Japan. They spent the day as usual in the coal mine. But as tired as they were when they came back to their prisoner barracks, they sang carols. Lt. Col. Harlan J. Bosworth, whose family has lived in Med ford for the past year and one half, is expected home from Europe by Christmas according to messages received from Marie Bosworth. When a group of Klamath folks drove to Eugene last week end to see the University of Oregon-Oregon State game, they also enjoyed being guests of Mr, and Mrs. Frank Graham of Eu gene who entertained at one of the most elaborate parties of the postwar era. The long buffet table was sumptiously and beautifully decorated. Klamath guests of the Grahams at the Eugene hotel included Mr. and Mrs. Robert A. Thompson, Mr. and Mrs. John H. Houston, Mr. and Mrs. Louis Serruys, Mr. and Mrs. Joe Hicks, and also Mr. and Mrs. Frank Holmes of Portland, but formerly of our town. The next morning the Oregon State winners entertained the loosers at breakfast. 1 It took, boxes and boxes to pack all the things the Ernest Mosers and their daughters, Bar bara and Janice, took to Africa for their three-year stay. In fact, there were exactly 100 boxes of things which they ship ped overseas. That seems a whale of a lot of stuff to some one who can hardly remember everything to put in an over night bag. Included in this ship ment was a great deal of canned fruits and jams and jellies and things that can't be bought over there. . Mrs. Stanley Staiger received a cable this week from Major Staiger at 1 Shanghai "home soon.", Joliene and young son have been at the Rolland Wood ruff home while the major has been in the China-Burma-India theater of operations. '-This ' book by Joel Sayre, "Persian Gulf Command" is quite an eye-opener. The men who served in the PGC, with typical American humor, dubbed it "People Going Crazy." It wasn't the picnic they imagined nor at all like the Arabian Nights description of that part of the world. When we made an appeal for pie fillings last week, the USO reported a splendid response such as apples, a few jars of excellent- mincemeat, squash etc.. But with Christmas only a matter of days, it seems that it would be a very nice gesture if every housewife would include a little gift to the snack bar at the USO as part of her holiday donation to happiness. Sunday Tea For Mrs. Schroeder Farewells were said to Mrs. Phil Schroeder who left this week for Brookings, when Mrs. Wyatt Padgett and Mrs, Roy Whytnl entertained at the Whytal home on North Third street last Sunday afternoon, !

About 35 guests called during the afternoon. Mrs. Schroeder received many farewell gifts from her friends. She left Fri day with her two daughters, Colleen and Collette, when Mr. Schroeder and Phil Edward ar rived here to move them to the coast town where so many Klamath folks are now residing. The Schroeders have had n lily farm at Brookings for quite some time. Their many friends regret their departure after 20 years' residence in Klamath Falls. .
