Dear Folks
Today I received your kind and
houghtful expression of Christ
,»as good wishes in form of pack
ge submitted thru American Le
gion, Tryon Post No. 100, Cher
lyville, North Carolina. We all
wish it were possible to recipro
cate these extensions of neigh
borlfness and love for fellow man.
But conditions are such that it is
impossible to do this in a material
sort of way. However we can and
do assure you that it is gestures
of this nature that make us realize
how insignificant we are as indi
viduals; but on the other hand be
assured that our hearts are filled
with joy and pride in the knowl
edge that the people with whom
we were reared and hold so dear
have not forgotten their contribu
tions to an Army so great that
hardly an outpost of civilization
is not iamiliar with GI uniforms
and greasy fatigues.
The fruit cake, candy, and ar
ticles for Him are swell and some
thing everyone appreciates. The
real Down Home touch comes m
the form of the raw goobers. The
eating of peanuts in this form is
strictly an old Southern Custom.
Only people from down there
know of such oddities. To send a
Southerner a gift of this category
makes him know that his people
are what he has always been so
proud of. Tonight when we open
ed the package all the boys from
our section partook greedily of
these goobers. It was only alter
we had assured the fellows from
the other sections that peanuts
were actually eaten in this form
that they came in for the feast.
Be assured they were not disap
pointed. YYe all ate and we all
enjoyed it, thanks to you people.
in closing, accept, please, my
thanks for your gracious overture
on this perhaps our saddest Xmas.
Let’s hope the next and all the
rest can be spent in a manner that
is a tribute to the One whose birth
this date commemorates.
Sincerely,
PRATT QUINN

Greetings from Germany and
thanks a Million for the package.
Cigarettes and candy are really
scarce at the front and these it
ems will be used by me on a rat
ioned basis, and as for the fruit
cake, it’s probably the only one in
Germany. Hope the above ex
presses my appreciation plainly
enough.

I am sorry I haven’t had time to

much for the package. The pea

luck to all and thanks again for
the package.
Paul D. Kistler
I can't express in words just
how much I appreciate or how
surprised I was to receive the
package from you. I won't even
try to because you men were m
the last war and you know what
the score is without me trying to
tell you how good a guy feels to
know that people are thinking ot
him at home,
James E. Black
Thanks for the package. Wish
ing you all a Merry Christmas.

Enjoyed the gift very much. 1
wish I was there to thank you in
person for it. 1 hope that day isn't
so far off. So thanks again.
Gene McGinnis
Twenty years ago you in khaki
were winning your battle on the
front. The world said "Well
Done.” Today the world sees you
through courage and insight gain
ed then, not only winning your
new fight on the home front but
also helping us who are in khaki
to win ours. Thanks for the
Christmas package.

I wish to thank you and the
employees of the Carlton Yarn
mill for the nice package that 1
received yesterday, Dec. 19th. It
reached me in good condition,
and I enjoyed it very much. 1
sure was surprised to get a pack- j
age from the Legion and the Carl
ton Mill being I hardly know any
one in Cherryville. I want you to
know though that I am grateful.
Joseph Tedder
I received your swell box the
other day. Not only myself but a
part of my buddies really enjoyed
it. It came in an awful g*od time.*
[ was good and hungry. 1 want to
thank each one of you again.
Joseph (Ovie) Heavner
On the twenty-second of thus
month I received the highly ap
preciated package you sent me
for Christmas and I want to thank
you for your thoughtfulness. 1
find that I do not have at my dis
posal words to express my heart
felt thanks. I opened the box and
shared it with all the fellows in
my barracks and they all join me
in thanking you for this box, 1
feel sure that we will all be just a >
little better soldier. I know we all
are happier than we would have
been. So once again I will just
have to say “Thank You”, because
I can think of no better word to
express our (and my) deepest
gratitude.

Gentlemen:
I received the package you -er‘
a few davs before Christmas. Was
thoughtful of you to remem bei
us bovs that are away at Christ
mas time. Wish to assure you
the Hongs you sent are greatly
apt reeiated and added much to
make Christmas a Merry one.
There is but little I have to sa>.
especially to you fellows who
have had the same expereince as
we boys are getting today. I’m
sure you had it rough and tough
as to the way we find it. Now
the army has many conveniences
that were missing when you were
a member. I’m glad we don’t
have to wrap leggins and a hieh
neck blouse like you wore. This
is only a beginning of how lucky
we are.
Isn’t any too much I can say
•lbout what I’m doing. Since be
ing overseas I have been with tl.is
hallway Shop Bn, which operates
what is known in railroad towns
as a back shop. We do only the
heavy work on locomotives.
Thanks again for the nice pack
ape.

Cherryville and
Lincolnton Tie Game
Once again the Cherryyille
Lincolnton girls were in a mighty
battle for the second time this
year. The game proved to be the
best played this season as Cherry
ville Tied Lincolnton in the last
few minutes of the game.
At the beginning of the game
Lincolnton outplayed Cherry villa
but Cherryville got their spirits
back at the half and tied the

Cherryville 14-8. Then Cherry
ville came back in full swing to
make the score- 21-20 just a few
minutes before the game ended.
In the last few minutes the girls
of both teams played hard. One
of Lincolnton’s girls received a
foul shot which was made good.
The crowd began to roar as only
a few seconds of the game was
left and Lincolnton feeling they
had won this game. Never a sec

o Jackie Helms which was made
good just as the whistle blew, tie

With French feeling running
high over the apparent exclusion
of General Charles da Gaulle
from the Roosevelt-Churchill-Sta

reshaping of the European map
“muet be decided later by all the

Law made his statements as a
substitute for Foreign Secretary
Anthony Eden and Prime Minister
Churchill.
The question was raised wheth

sed what was quoted as the "offi
cial statement made by General
de Gaulle in Paris on Jan. 25 that
both east and west banks of the
Rhine must belong to France."
Law replied that according to
all accounts he had seen of de

both banks must belon«r to France
but “referred only to the military
occupation of certain areas by
French forces.”

“any permanent security for

In a later discussion of the rec

liberated countries,’ Law reitera

free elections as soon as possible.
Law said the government’s pol

“But the government does not

“Does not the interpretation of

The youthful minister of state
also expressed the hope that Brit
