SERVICE MAN
BOOSTS USO
A sincere boost for the USO
was forthcoming this week in a
letter received by the Journal from
A. H. Walden, S2/c, former resi-[
dent. The letter is reprinted here.
Sept. 15, ’43.
Dear Sir,
By the Sept. 9 edition of the
Journal I saw that the new USO in
Shelton had its grand opening re-
cently.
With the experience I’ve had
with different USO’s, I find that
they are really wonderful orga-
nizations and that many service-
men consider them as homes away
from home.
Your article told me that the
new USO had got off to a good
start. ' Since I had lived several
years in Shelton before entering
the service I know that the people
will go a long way to keep it a
bright spot for the servicemen.
Yours very truly,
A. H. Walden, S2/c,
U.S.N.S.S. Great Lakes, l
Ill.

iHunter’s Guns

l Boom in Dewatto
Open season for deer is on with ,
a bang. People started getting
their locations Saturday and Sun-
day at dawn, the shooting began.
IOne could imagine they were at
I the Battle of the Argonne or Get-
tysburg or some famous battle.
I “Cannon to right of ‘us, cannon to
. left of us volleyed and thundered.”
My first thought on Sunday morn-
ing was, well if there are any live-
stock left in the pasture it will be
a. miracle. But with meat as high
as it is, and ration points as scarce
l as they are, no one can blame
(them for trying to “bring home,
the bacon." At a rough estimate, ,‘
I would say there were about 20 l
deer taken out Sunday, the first|
, day of the special hunting season.
lWe have not heard of any domes-
, tic stock being killed, and the
' hunters are much more considerate
‘ of the farmer’s rights than in past
years. '
Mrs. Elva Price of Shelton spent
Sunday to Wednesday with her
parents, Mr. and Mrs. George Cun-
ningham last week. Mr. and Mrs.
