t L E t I tN| f? D V/ASr Geo. H. Hart Dear Boys: The good old simmer time has come to us, and we are really en joying it as it will make thing's grow, and permit us to do our bib on the home front eatinif vegetab les out of our own gardens, axid canning the surplus for use this winter. It certainly makes you hot when you get out there v/ork- ing but we know that' it is not as hot as where you are, so we do n. not kick. The War in the Pacific seems to be going mighty well these —i—days, and our boys are doing a wonderful job out there. We feel y sure, however, that we have not diomn our real strength there yet, and )I J j I I when we get all of the stuff out of Europe to throw against the Japs,' , / I ( they will really know vtot war is, and wish' they had never started it, I feel they are of that opinion now, but it is too ]ate, and they v.ill have to paj’- in fuU 'for their sncnky c-ttack on us, V/e cannot conceive of moving all that equipment out of Europe but you have done more wonderful jobs than that, so knofv you c^ and will do it, and will not be long about it. School is out and a good many of the boys have taken jobs in the mill. We wel come their help, and know they will do their best to keep things going until you can get back home. We do not see any change in the demand for twines from the government to keep on 'melcing seine twine and duck yarn so that you boys can have camouflage, netting and tenffe, and we will^continue to devote all of our energies toward helping you win the war and get back to tis, Vacation time is here, and soon the girls and boys in the office will be taking their annual week of rest, and we hope each and every one of th'em v/ill have a delict— ful tine, and enjoy every minute of it, ■ - ’ Tlifi Hoover Rail is in full sv/ing these days, and the same old arguments go'on, as none of them have ever been settled and never will be, but we keep on trying, and judge we will until time is no more. If Eisenhower could have sat on the Hoover Hail and directed the war in Europe, wo feel sure that it would have ended much quick er, but, unfortiinately, he could not be'two places at once, so just had to do the best he could, and he really did a sv;ell jobi because he had an army of swell boys under him, and he fully appreciated that fact, and has said so time and time again. He must be a great fellow and we would like to know him, 'There is no disputing the fact that we ha-'/e developed some great generals in this war, and they really made history. The fishing season has opened and some of the boys have tried iihcir luck. They report good results but we have not seen any sign of any fish, so cannot verify their statements, Hovwver, we do not feel the supply of fish has been depleted as yet, so you can £,o when you get back with the full assurance there are plenty of fish left in the ponds and streams. You will be interested to know that the cabin for the Boy Scouts is assured, and will be built as soon as the materials can be secTired, This is a'worthy cause, and the coimranity has shown that it knows the value of the Boy Scoutsj and will back then up in every way, ‘We have a troop of which we can be justly proud, and one which has taker, raany honors, YOU \iVRITTEN US LATELY? We are ’ depending on you so do not run out on us, but sit right down and let us hear from you. Good luck and good going to all of you. Sincerely, Geo, H. Hart,
