By G. W. Clayton
Well, .it looks like logging is
about over for this winter. We
haven't had any snow here yet,
but around 2,000 feet there is quite
a lot and we are logging higher
than that. You see here in this
country the snow starts falling in
the early fall on the high peaks
and keeps coming down most of
the time.- Around Christmas we
will have snow down here. I have
seen it snow on Mount Phue the
last of August. That may be hard
to make you folks down South
believe but nevertheless it is true.
We don't have cold freezing weath
er when it is cloudy, but when it
clears off look out. We don't see
many sunshiny days in winter.
The camp closed Tuesday, Nov.
16 until Monday, but from the
looks outside now I have my
doubts. I am pretty sure some
of the boys will be heading South
pretty soon. Pne of our old friends,
Jeff Donalson, is home again after
spending about three months in
the hospital in Everett. He had

Well, I guess everybody will'

2 or 3 month rest and eat and
sleep. We have it coming for we
hive worked pretty regular sinc$

get our rocking chair money. Say,
I forgot to tell you we voted to i
pay our GI's a bonus in this state.
A boy will get $15.00 for overseas
duty. That is $15 a month, and
$10 while in the states. We also

We sure hope Mr. Truman makes

the 80th Congress is to blame for
he has the whole works.
