Across the LEE lived- a- poor farmer’s daughter and she REYNA over that part, and how!Now the KING was a great HUNTER and shot no BLANKS. One BRIGHT MUNDAY while riding over the HILL after a heavy BLIZZARD, the KING spied the lassie in her room feeling LOWE. Dismounting . he sneaks up to the door and peeps through the KEHOE and what he saw was no RIDDLE to him. He sees her FRUEND is no other than the PRINCE. The,KING.being.no.. MINER himself calls in, “I say there, m’dear, I’ll have my STEWART lock the PRINCE in the GARRISON and you come with me. We’ll take DE LONG trip to the city of McCARVILLE and make HAY, HAY there. You know, I’m quite HANDY m’self. Shall I give you a RING?With a thrust of her BUSS, the maiden replied, “NADING doing, Butch; you BARKLEY up the wrong tree. WATTS more you can take a flying leap into the nearest CLAMPITT. In other words, WEERTS 'to you.The old KING sadly rode backnvpr the HILL.'you go to town some time? I know She wifey wouldn’t mind. She trusts vou—as though you don’t know that.Take care, beware, the big bad wolf is prowling the streets. You’ll find also the cradles in the street —they are being rocked gently. The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world. . . . Well, in this case, I don't know so much about the ruling, but the cradles are be-in? rocked—call desk.What a grand day Saturday will be. Yes, that is right. It is Hallowe’en. Do you think that will be the real reason for such hanoiness? It’s just fortunate that Hallowe’en falls on such a day. Otherwise it wouldn’t mean a thing. How about that, fellows? Don’t get as broke as I did.See you next week.Who's Important?Captain Florence MacDonald, assistant chief nurse -at Lovell General Hospital in Australia, met the four-vear-old son of General Douglas MacArthur while she was serving on Corregidor. Young Arthur. MacAi-thvtfr prefers tactics to strategv. When Nurse MacDonald asked if he intended to be a gen-Company in the Battalion.Now that Chaga, Dickerson, the Hengles, Mumaw, Roark and Pupo are back from their furloughs there should be a lot towrite next week when they spill their stories. Cpl. Roark tells about the girl from Akron he met in Washington; that’s one time the Hengle boys were asleep at -the switch, but if they’re real good, Roark will give them her address.And speaking of women, Cpl. Talareck and Tobias seem to be crossed up on the same one. Sure hope there’s no double there. Yes, and Griffin has been walking around in a dream since his dream sent her picture; at the last count he’s only shown it 16 times to every man in the Company.That 1st Reporting Company across the aisle has been crowing long and loud about their Company being so good. How about showing them how much better the Plotting Co. is at anything they choose? Anything from tid-dle-de-winks to touch football.A pedometer last Tuesday showed that Helmey walks about 23 miles a day. That’s why a hike to him would be like a day off. The march last Monday to Sulphur Springs turned out OK, the weather being ideal for swimming and everything during the break. Cpl. Norton sure could be the “Mr. Five by Five” the Andrew Sisters sing about? he’s getting to look more and more like a banker every day. Believe it or not — Grayson is making those hikes and they’re just about twice as tough for him. Good work.Before we say good-bye, a big hand to two more men slated for O. C. S., Cpl. Butts and Blaser. Good luck.Flash Just Received: A new officer for our Company, 2nd Lt. Laymour Feldman, transferred from the 2nd Reporting Company. Here’s for a happy and successful tour of duty.Your biggest duty to yourself and your country today is TRAINING.
