Mighty nice of him to take the time to write me... I know how busy they keep the boys. That’s a fine camp he’s been transferred to up in New England.” “Yes, Catherine and I had a letter this morning, too. Said he was writing you... he’s very fond of you. Judge. Catherine is certainly proud of Joe and proud of the great Army he’s a part of.” “She has good reason to be, Frank. TUr Joe is one fine fellow and the Army he’s in is the best disciplined, best behaved in our history. Just last night I was reading an article that quoted a report signed by five chaplains in the very camp where Joe is now training. I remember their exact words which were “there is no liquor prob lem at this Post.” And I understand that’s true in camp after camp all over the country. And if Catherine would like to see that report. I’ll drop it off at the house tomorrow.” .prmsorai by Caufrrtncr af Almbotir tnduiiritt, tar.
