Show APPRECIATIVE WORD RECEIVED FROM A CORPORAL Airs. Katherine Knisely, who so ably edited the "Passing Times," a paper relating events of interest about Oj-don Oj-don and Ogden boys in the service, for the benefit of the boys overseas nnd In the camps, was the recipient of the following letter of commendation from Corporal P. V. Coburn, who was formerly an instructor in manual ! training In the high school of this city. The letter reads as follows: ' "I was pleased with the news In your 'Passing Times' paper and by the paper pa-per can see that Ogden is still alive and on the map. "There are so many good things in the paper, I cannot speak of them all, but I will express myself on some of them. "The soldier now looks upon the city which has a depot canteen with great admiration. Am very glad Ogden is among this number. By the paper, It must be the best In the United States. "There are twenty Utah boys with me but only one from Ogden. They all want to read this paper. So you see how wo love home news. The "list j of soldiers in the army interested rnej very much as so many are school chums, and some I had taught whllo in the high school there. "Just a little news about camps In Texas near where I am stationed. There are eight camps near San Antonio, An-tonio, Texas. Some are very beautiful beauti-ful while others are very muddy barracks bar-racks and just sagebrush. "Camp Travis is quite a largo camp and well located. Fine roads and barracks bar-racks for most all the men. Perhaps Per-haps Lieutenant Baker, better known in Ogdon as Dr. Baker, the dentist, can tell some interesting things about the camp. He is also in the 12th division di-vision as I am. My part is signal work. "Pardon me for taking so much of your time but I really felt that I must thank you for what you are doing for the soldiors of Utah." oo |
