' V V V V V '" v Los Angeles, Cal., Dec. 23, 1917 Editor Herald: Quite unexpected for me as well as you, that my Xmas greetings and best wishes for a happy New Year to you and all Dakota county friends come from sunny California. If it were not for the miniature decorated Xmas tree standing in front of the Exam iner building, Main street, I could not realize Xmas is so near, for there are many green tree3, such as orange, palms, different sorts of ev ergreen, and others. The flowers arc beautiful. We thought it beau tiful in Oregon, but it is more so here, only I fear the summer heat. The city is over-crowded with pleas ure seekers. Foreigners, as we call ourselves, almost suffer with the heat, especially at mid-day, but the Californian wears a winter coat and calls it cool weather. The Herald follows me where I go and is such a comfort in this strange land. Johanna Mundy. La Crosse, Wash., Dec 27, '17 Dear Mr. Ream: Enclosed find draft for the Herald for another year. Well, John, the Dakota coun ty people that are in Washington all seem to bo in good health, and have had another fairly good year and have use for it in these war times, as you and all of us know. We are all well, and wish you and yours a happy and prosperous year for 1918. Your friend, W. P. Rathbun. See Us For Job Printing n Hfe B H raze 'KBP.Wi '.'..
