Dear Boys:
Here I’ am pinch-hitting again for
Jim Osborne, who, we are sorry to say,
is on the sick list, but we trust he v/ill
be with us next month, and can really
write you an interesting letter.
Our boys continue to leave for the
armed forces, and wo miss them, but know
they are glad to get into the fight, and
do their part toward vanning the war.
V/e know the picture on the front of
this issue will be of interest to you as
it will shov; you all of the men under whom
you worked while at the mill, and will prob
ably bring back fond recollcctions of your
life here.
War orders continue to pour into the
mill, and wo continue to do our very best
to got them out, so that you, may lack for
nothing wo can make to help you in your
fight, as wo vdsh all of the boys to know
that we aro vdth them to the limit, and
will be until the victory is won.
Several of our boys have been homo on furlough recently and it certainly is a
groat pleasure for us to have them, and we endeavor to show our appreciation of what
they are doing by giving them a most hearty welcome.
This is vacation time in the office, and the girls and boys have been taking
thoir v/eek of rest, v;hich all seem to enjoy, and v;e knov/ it is helpful to them to
get avjay from the grind of the office for a short time,
V/o are adding names to the plaque in the window, as the boys continue to leave
us, aid it is really getting to bo a largo affair, and it seems to increase at .an
alarming rate, but we arc proud of the fact that our boys are found fit, as we v/ould
not have it otherwise.
The v\rar nows these days is just too good to be true, and we become prouder and
prouder of our boys in the armed forccs, as they are doing a job which excites the
admiration of the v;orld. We had no idea but that such would be the case, but when
it happens, it just does something to you - it makes you fool proud that you are an
American.
Sincerely,
Oeo, H. Hart
