Ray Bartos, who had landed at Brem ershaven, Germany. At the time the letter was written he was stationed at Camp Hogan, Ger many. In his letter he stated “After we got off the ship, they took us out to camp in busses. They have different barracks here. They look like hotels and have been newly - built by the Ger mans. This camp is just a pro cessing station. They checked cut some Equipment to us and then we leave here in five or six days. I’ve been assigned as a re pair man. I sign out a truck and if I wreck it or if anything hap pens to it while I have it, it is up to me to pay for it. “We sure had a good new year’s dinner—a lot better than the Chistmas dinner on the ship. We had turkey, apples, potatoes, olives, corn bread, salad, candy and mixed nuts. We had about the same things for supper.” Private Bartos went on to say that they didn’t have to pull K.P. because there were German K.P.’s. A dollar was given to the Germans to pay them for the work. “We changed our money after we got here. It’s almost the same as American, but the bills aren’t as big. One, five and 10 are print ed on them and the coins are also paper bills with 5, 10, 25 and 50 printed on them. Seems funny when a person wants a nickel or a dime you have to take out your billfold and pull out a bill. “They really have some little cars here. Thjey sound like the pistons or rods are about to fall out, and when they travel all you can see is blue smoke. The main method of transportation is bicycles. Men, women and chil dren travel with bikes. “They’ve started to farm here already. I don’t see how they could raise anything when it’s so cold, but they’re plowing and using one or two horses on a one horse plow. Someone told me that some use the milk cow to do the work besides milking her drs, brown & french Eyes Tested—Glasses Fitted Broken Lens Replaced in 24 Hours Other Repairs While You Wait Complete X-Ray For INCOME TAX ASSISTANCE |^00 * CARL U MAX at Page Co-op. Credit Association 125 Sheepskins from Nebraska , , “Where do General Electric’s engineers come from?” a visitor asked us. “I suppose they all got trained at MIT, or Cornell, or Michigan.” His question set us pondering, so we started plowing through the file cabinet for an answer. And, of course, it turned out as you’d imagine—NO. General Electric engi neers don’t always come from eastern technical schools. They won their slide rules from colleges in every state. Maybe you’d like to hear how many of our bright engi ^ neers got their engineering education in your home state. I Here’s part of the list... 328 came from colleges in Kansas . . . 207 from Okla homa . . . 125 Nebraska . . . 103 Montana ... 97 South Dakota ... 87 North Dakota ... 47 Arkansas ... 41 Wyoming ... 411 came from Texas colleges ... well, the list includes every state. One out of every twenty employees at General Electric is an engineer or scientist. You know that a big part of our work is improving products and working out new ideas. Right now young men from your home state are working ' on big and important engineering jobs at General Electric. -You should be mighty proud of them because—take our ' word—they’re doing a swell job. <4 * 'oa can, in,—..

All I’ve ever seen them eating was sandwiches or cookies. They can’t buy meat by the pound like we do, it’s just two or three slices. It’s tne same way with bread, everything costs so much that they can t afxord 10 eat meals.” He went on to say that they still used the oidfashioned light bulbs for their street lighting, and some of the lamp posts are in the middle of the streets. “They just got the lights in the mess nail put in. it’s a nice uuilding, something like a hotel caning room, they nave women w or King in there to clean off tne tables and to sweep the iioor.” Private Bartos expects to be stationed in Germany for 18 months. He received his training at Ft. Riley, Kans., for the infan try and from mere he was sent to Europe. Legal Notices (First puolication Jan. 8, 1952) Jonn R.

The Holt coun ty chapter of the National Founda tion for Infantile Paralysis has a deficit in its treasury. The de ficit came about because all the resources—and more—were spent on patients needing polio care. Inu order to meet the needs of the Foundation, the towns in Holt county are going all-out in a big drive. In O'Neill, the WSCS of the Methodist church held a food sale on Saturday, the proceeds going for the march of dimes. On Monday, January 26, a talent show will be held in the O’Neill high school auditorium as a polio benefit. On Thursday, January 29, there will be a mother’s march to collect donations at all homes where the porch light is on. Mean while, a pop (and beer) bottle pickup is planned. Proceeds from the sale of empties will go to the Foundation. In Atkinson, there will be a black of dimes. All the dimes contributed will be attached to a tape which will be a block long. It is hoped that the tape will be full by the lime the campaign is over at the end of the month. Chambers will hold a bake and food sale at the Harley and Shav lik Hardwares on Saturday, Jan uary 24. As a testimony to the worthi ness of the campaign, Dewayne Tasler of Atkinson has this to say: “Give what you think you can squeeze out of your budget. Then if you are ever near a hos pital where physiotherapy is giv en, by all means go and see how this is done. Learn about the courage of the small hearts and big ones and how the National Foundation helps to restore hap piness. “After visiting such an institu tion, one will never have to be asked to give again, because one can see the value of such funds. If they were not available there would be no help for the work ing class of people. I want to thank the Foundation for the aid which I received and for which I am grateful.” A march of dimes movie trail er, “Through the Years,” starring Howard Keel, is being shown in Holt theaters January 23 to 31. ^ _ ... ji.irj ,.,'jiiM w Lynch News Mr. and Mr. Allan Koscan of Butte brougnt their children here to see Lynch doctors.
