orina.
Lois Gatos, Cal.
Dear Club Ladies:
I got your package and sure
want to thank you for it. We
had a real army Christmas but the
only thing was we had to eat
Christmas dinner with our guns
by our side. But if that is the
worst that will happen while T
am in the army it won’t be bad.
One thing we had a few Cali
fornia gals eat with us. So that
was quite a treat when it happens
for the first time in six months.
We are at Los Gatos now it is
about fifty miles from San Fran
cisco. I like the army a lot better
since we left the camp even if it
' is a harder life. I don’t have as
much time to write letters but I
try to answer them all.
We just had an alarm for a
black out but after all it turned
out to be the fire whistle so may
be I can finish this letter.
We have details of all kinds
such as K. P., guard which I go
on at ten tonight and if we do
something wrong we get it before
our time is up. We have about
the nicest bunch of officers in the
army.
We have been having all the
rain we want, and it gets pretty
chilly here nights. But I would
sooner be in Nebraska when it
gets cold enough to wear an over
coat.
Well I will have to close for its
getting close to ten.
Thanking you again for the
nice candy and cookies.
Prt. Raymond Winkler.

Experts" 7n agriculture, here, say
that in the near future, the method
of big distrubtion of milk may be
revolutionized. They describe the
establishment of new plants where
whole milk will be dried and then
distributed as powder in capsules.
A capsule dropped into a cup of
coffee in the future may replace
the little glass receptable contain
ing cream. Even the old cream
pitcher may pass on in the large
cities. The milk man’s job may
be made easier. No one has yet
suggested a substitute for the cow.
