The butter used to be in the butter dish. Now it's down in the store. ' The reason the butter is not in the butter dish Is because it costs points galore. I wish, I wish, I wish I had butter in my butter dish Since butter takes so many points; It's too great an annoyance. But the war will soon be over The butter dish filled again, ; And we will all be happy And peace will ever remain. So I bought a glass butter dish; I filled it with candy, Then I dusted the lid and it looked dandy. ; Now if you buy a war bond, it sure ly will come in handy. ' ' . i And if you will buy an extra one, : I'll let you eat the candy. The butter dish, filled with candy, was then auctioned off to the highest bidder, Mrs. Paul Starling. The pro ceeds went into the treasury. The guests then assembled in the dining room where tea was served. The tea table was presided over by by Mrs. Neva Royal, mother of Mrs. Williams.

(Continued from page Three) you kill a moose you really get a pile of meat. The caribou are really plentiful whenever you see them but they are constantly moving so you don't have them at one place all the year round. I saw dozens of mountain goats and sheep and even though I have seen them on the sides of these steep mountains I still don't se how thev stay up there. I have never seen them i any place except high up in the moun tains, usually just below the line where green grass starts to grow. Their trails are plainly seen from the air and they surely are in lots Bteeper places than a man would dare to go. Some of them had pretty little kids. They are all just as white as snow. Guess that's about enough about one little trip. Don't forget that I saw enough official stuff on this trip to write a 15 page report which didnt include any of the stuff I told you in this letter. In other words it wasn't entirely a pleasure trip.
