Receives Word From Ernie o MONSON IS WELL KNOWN Dear Garnel: In answer to your lettter of April third, I would like to thank you, as representative of the Lions club back there in Hyrum, for the considerate thought of us out here. Rather alarming the amount of boys we have in the service from Hyrum. It was only a few days ago I as telling my parents about meeting two Hyrum boys in the thick of battle on the beach at Kwajalein, located in the heart of the Marhalls. These boys were left behind on one of the tropical islands while I, yes little me, boarded ship and came running home to the states, carrying with me, a citation if it ever comes through). Oh well, who wanted it By the way, you knew anyway? both of these boyis quite well, Im ure.

Anyway, ell the people around there hello, r.d luck goes with it. Sincerely, Ernie Nielsen IN UTAH DEMOCRATIC CIRCLE al as-u- ut Have you got your Victory Garden planted yet?

We get a lot f letters ifrom different people now days stated that they have throwed their hat in the ring for the different offices that come up for election this fall. Isnt it funny how that a man will stand up in a policial rally and tell all the lessoners what he will do if he gets elected, when he knows damn well that he dont mean a word of it. Why dont they just come out and say, lsten people if yoti want to vote for me I would appreciate your vote, instead of if you will vote for me instead of my friend, Mr. Jones who is running against me, I will give you a job in the office. How many people have been left holding the sack that have taken those candidates seriously? There have been plenty. to Office of Secretary of State 1 You know folks, there is a little good in most of the bad people, but most of the people never stop to think about the good side of the people they think are bad For instance maybe the boy who is accused of doing the harm is just taking the blame for someone else. It i$ often said that people do things when they dont. Now for instance there are a lot of boys out there on the battle fields that are fighting day and night to save you and me, yet when they were home people used to say they were bad boys, but now I hope they will turn round and $ay that those boys are all right. Remember there is a little bit of good in a person no matter how bad they are and there is a little bit of bad in people no matter how good they are. No one is perfect. E. E.

It is an antique the original I mean my copy is a reprint and only 41 years old. It cost me 4 dollars, plus 12 cents tax. It is worth it. Now, when some radio jokesmith dishes up a raucous and version and concoction of a joke, I just look in my Joe Miller book and get the straight of it, and get the point, which, on the raido, you dont get, except maybe it is once in a full moon. But about this Joe Miller. He was something like AEsop. Everybody knows, I guess, that it was Babrius who wrote down the fables, about 200 years after AEsop toldem. That was in 600 B. C. And it wa's Mr. John Mottley who wrote down the Joe Miller Jests, in 1739.
