MISS MARY LO
"Students con boost the morale
of men in the armed forces by
writing them," asserts Miss Mary
Louise Plummer, A. and T. College,
Greensboro, N. C., honor
sophomore, and originator of a
movement encouraging high school
and college students to correspond
with men in the various branches
of our military service.
In a letter uddressed to student
organizations. Miss Plummer
wrote:
"The simplest way that we, as
students, can boost the morale of
service men is by writing to them.
They get down-hearted and sad
and think that everyone has forgotten
them If their parents and
friends stop writing. A young soldier
In England wrote to me and
asked me U> write as often as possible.
It seems as though his parents
had stopped writing to him
altogether. It Is my plan to write
to this fellow^ very often because
I understand how he feels. Even
though I am not far from home,
I feel despondent If my parents
do not write often, so I realize how
. It would be If I were far away,
maybe overseas. 1
"Another way that we can do
this Is by being courteous to all
service men. Many of them are
former students, teachers and leaders
In their communities. Some
have families, sisters and brothers.
Let's think of them, and above all
remember this: Each one Is some
body's son.
"I am quite sure that if we consider
these points for a few mlni'
utes and write, to those men in the
service, they would appreciate It
a groat deal. All of us cannot join
the army, the,navy, or the marines,
but ws^can do our part by
helping those jvho are flghtlngi'DO

Robert Moseley As
To State Legist
Robert kMoseley, prominent}
attorney of Greensboro, an?
nounces his candidacy for House
of Representatives in the following
statement:
Greensboro, North Curolina,
April 3. 1044.
1 expect to file my notice of can
dlducy for .the State House of
Representatives within the next
day or so.
When I ra for the House In 1043
I took advantage of such opportunities
us 1 had from time to
time to Indicate xuy attitude toward
the State's most Important
problems and to outline In some
detail the policies thnt would have
my support.
Again, In this campaign, as I
have opportunities to state my
views In sufficient detail to be reasonably
specific, I expect to attempt
to ucquaint the people of
thiB county with the kind of legislation
that I will support as a
member of the 1045 House If I am '
renominated and re-elected. ,I
appreciate the opportunity the i
people of the county gave me to J
serve them In the 1043 House. My'
votes on important matters com- J
ing before the 1043 Howe-are-?4
matter of record, and the voters
of the county consequently now
have an opportunity to determine
from post performance rather
than from campaign statements
alone whether I should be sent to
the 1045 House. It is only natural '
for me to hope that my legislative 1
record meets with their approval. 1
If it does meet with their approval,
and if I am renominated 1
and re-elected, I will do my best
to Justify their continued confl- *
dence. 1
