They also had a letter from their son Pfc. Earl Patterson, who is in France, and that he was O. K and not to worry. He reported running into Pfc. McKay Farrer also in France. The boys were separated while in the U. S. A. and were very much surprised to see each other over there. Gratitude In a letter dated August 5 from First Sgt. Elmer D. White to his home folks, from somewhere in France, he states that all the Beaver County boys in his division are well and as usual are kept very busy in doing all they can in the service of their country. They are getting a lot of experience but are keeping up their courage and do not want their relatives at home to worry too much about them, At the time the letter was written Sgt. White was sitting under an apple tree, as orchards are very numerous in France, and consist mainly of apples. The various crops are good there this year and men, women and children are working very hard to harvest them. The French people are so overjoyed and so thankful to see American troops there, they do all they can to show tfielr appreciation to the U. S. soldiers. People who are keeping up with the war news can tell Just about where the Beaver hoys are in France. The Beaver papers are going through regularly now, and are greatly appreciated, as news from their home town means so much to them. to Parents of Seaman John B.

R. who was killed In action several months since in the South Pacific. "For Military Merit," the inscription on the back of the medal reads, with the name and rank of the honored soldier. Mr. and Mrs. Baldwin are Justly appreciative of the honor shown their son by the government and war department, but say that it is totally inadequate to fill the great void in their hearts by the loss of a son. The Baldwins have another son, Private Gordon Baldwin, serving in the Pacific theatre of war, and when prior to Aug. 21, seven or more weeks had passed with no news from him, they were naturally very much worried and distraught? but on the date above mentoioned the mail brought to them three letters from their soldier son In the one day, relieving their worries and Informing them that he had been through the Guam campaign and save for a few stragglers that were rapidly being mopped up, the island had been freed from Japanese. who All applications for elk permits has just announced the booking of will be received at the State Cap- Siegfried the Great, sensational skier, to round out the program of itol building. fast moving events for the dally revue.

WASHINGTON, D. C Perhaps y the most ambitious program ever undertaken by the Army is the work of rehabilitation among soldiers maimed or disabled in battle, which is now being carried out by the War Department. The success with which this vast undertaking is already meeting deserves special mention. There seems to be a strong likelihood that, as the result of this program, by far the larger part of these men will be capable of useful and productive lives. The since it program is provides for physical, psychological, intellectual and technical training. Physically, of course, the men are provided with the latest in mechanical and vocational" therapy, systematic exercise, and especially directed recreation, all of which will help to develop compensatory functions. While "reorientation or readjustment back to civilian life becomes the task of the psy chologist. Every man is induced to take an active part in news conferences and forums. All this tends to help the soldier make this social adjustment gradually under skillful supervision and direction. Likewise, the final phase of tech nical training is as well handled. This training prepares a soldier in some particular trade or craft or skill, which can be reasonably ex pected to provide him a liveli hood. The variety and choice of such training is limited only by the nature of his handicap and most of these are found to be more While the apparent than real. soldier is convalescing he Is also abl.e to resume his education at whatever point he may have left off. Arrangements have been made with high schools and uni versities so that courses may be completed and degrees in the arts and sciences can be conferred. Fortunately we have in Utah just such a hospital located at Brigham City, that is doing out standing work in rehabilitating the maimed bodies of our soldiers. If the occasion should ever arise whereby you have an opportunity to visit Bushnell Hospital you should do so, and then you will have an appreciation of the work that is being, done. extra-militar- COSTS That word "costs" always touch es an Inquisitive chord in we hu mane, and so it is a source of real satisfaction to learn that because so many people have contributed their time, office space, and other assistance, the War Bond sales' cost to the government is only one cent for every thirty-thre- e dollars raised. VARIOUS SERVICES UXDER OPA PRICH CONTROL Charges for service by laundries, shoe repair shops, and automotive, farm equipment and appliance repair shops have been regulated by price control for some time. Now because new appliances cannot be bought and the expenditures for Bervkes are taking more of the daily wage, OPA has expanded Its new regulation so as to include a multitude of other services. Safety deposit boxes, fur deposit service, cleaning septic tanks and pool rooms and many other services are now Doctors, dentists, barbers and beauticians, who furnish Bervlce but no commodities, are specifically exempted.

While there she visited Juarez, Old Mexico, and witnessed one of their famous bull fights. Then she made a trip to Carlsbad Cavern, New Mexico, and says she did not think there were so many wonderful sights to be seen, but said the heat was extremely oppressive in El Paso. |
