“Just dropped by to tell you, Frank, I had a
fine letter from your son, Joe, this morning.
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.

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

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.”
