Show t "r The Mt. Pleasant (Utah) Pyramid Page Two Schools Get Thanhs For Korean Gifts at the Allred and students Hamilton tirade School from Lt. Duane J. Scovllle in Korea, who wrote the letters after receiving 22 boxes of clothing collected by the children and sent for Korean children. Korea 27 January 1952 Ixar Mr, Allred, Enclosed is a letter to the children of the school. Ive tried to put in the letter a little information as to the need jpf the cloth. ng that was sent and tell them a bit about what we have been doing with it. Trying to put my thoughts on paper to be passed on to youger kids something I found mighty hard to do, so if I haven't made myself clear to them, would you irv to explain a bit. I know that in addition to the kids, yourself and many other people have helped in sending the boxes. Not know.ng who all helped I'm hoping that you will thank them all for me. It is really a wonderful thing to get such response from the home town, especially since I have been away from there for such a long time. 1 might add a few more things about receiving boxes Not from people in the U.S.A. only from my home, but we have received boxes from all over the United States. Our mail has been arriving by the truck load, is and the larger part of it i.s cloth'ng for our orphWe have had to expand the one orphanage that we had of and now are taking care boxes of anage. about ten with the clothing that is being received. I guess all in all we are taking care of about a thousand children. What started to be a small prolect really 'enlarged itself. The Korean people have taken care of the buddings for us, donations of money from soldiers have fed the kids, and the boxes from our homes have put clothes on them. Ill say thanks again for the help that you and the people from home have given. Fountain Green Korea The following letteis were' received by Principal Morsden A. 27 Mrs. 1D32 January A Children of The Hamilton Grade School Mt. Pleasant, Utah Phone 841 Dear Kids, Im wr ting this letter to say thanks for the generous contri-- I but ions that ou kids of the Hamilton School have given to the unfortunate children here in Koiea. To explain lust how badly needed the clothing you sent is a m ghty hard thing to do. I would like to tell you just what soit of conditions these kids here in Korea are living in to and how vour donations them are lx ng used. When the fighting moved North of the city of Seoul, it left many children between the ages of one ear and fourteen without either parents or homes. These children lived by begging or steal ng the things they needl'd to exist. What little had w'as ragged clothing they and dirty. I doubt if one of to them had a pair of shoes wear. They were a indeed pitiful lot. The unit that I am presently ass gned to decided that we should find a place for them to live and do something about getting them clothes and food. We started an orphanage of our own. Getting a place for them to live and obtaining food for them wasnt too hard. Our biggest problem was find.ng something for them to wear. Our answer to that was to write to our people at home and see if they could send clothing of some sort to us. I guess I dont have to say much about what the answ'er to those letters were. Kids like you took care of our problem in that line for us. The cloth ng sent by you kids of the Hamilton School is being worn the Garden by children of Orphanage, which is the name we gave it, and I might add that they did when I first saw them they dd when I first saw them last summer. Im not much good at writing letters of this kind, but in behalf of the children from the Garden Orphanage, I want to thank all of you from the bottom of my heart for the things you sent. It is things like this that makes a person very proud to say Hhats my Nome Town. S ncerely yours, Duane J. Scovile.
