front the tower and the garden there
is the most beautiful place I have ever
seen, It would take pages to describe
everything, •but believe me it is worth
seeing.
You will notice that my addres.s has
changed slightly. Instead of it being
the• 11th Cdn. Tank Rege. it is 11th
Cdn, Allred R.egt. I transferred to
headquarters squadron last Jan. as a
technical, sergeant with seventy-five
cents a day trades pay. I like my
work quite well, but would much rath-
er be back home, Jerry is pretty well
cornered now and I believe it is only
a matter of months nosy until the war
Will be over with Germany.
Hoping this finds you in best of
health and wishing 'a Very Merry
Xmas and a PrOsperous New Year.
I remain sincerely
Arthur Haase.

out the service. At the close a short
dedication service was held when each
member placed their holiday bells in
front of the lighted candles which
shone forth on the pictures of the
Nativity and of the Madonna and.
Child.
The president presided, Reports
were all very gratifying, none more so
than that of the Literary Secretary,
Mrs. E. W. 'Whitfield, who reported
the members had the honour of having
read the most in the London Confer-
ence and for which they have received
a book shelf consisting of interesting
books, and valued at eight dollars, and
which are proving quite interesting to
the members.
The past president conducted the
slate of officers as presented by the
nominating committee, Mrs, K. Hastie,
and Mrs. E. J. Parrish, and resulted in
the following:

Mr. Harold Watson is a patient in
Listowel General Hospital where he
underwent an operation on Friday
morning and who is making a satis-
factory recovery.
Mr .David Neilson had his tonsils
removed in Listowel Hospital on Tues-
day last and is able to be out and
around again.
Mrs. A. V. Murdock and Miss Lan-
son of Timmins, are guests of their
sister, Mrs. 3. H. King and Mr. King,
Mrs. Harold iCockbum and Miss
Jean Cockburn, R.N., of Guelph, spent
the week-end with the former's sis-
ter, Mrs. V. Shera and Mr. Shera.
Mr. and Mrs. J. T. Shera and Shir-
ley, visited on Sunday with his son,
Signin. Emerson Shera of Vancouver,
and Mrs. Shera of Wingham.
Mr. R. G. Newton, Toronto, spent
the week-end at his home here.
Mr. Robt. Harrison will have charge
of the rink here for the season and
has begun getting the ground work in
shape 'ready for the first real • cold
weather. Mr. Harrison has proved an
efficient man for the job the past few
years. and mart y are preparing .for a
winter of clean sport.
Mr. and Mrs. Reg. Hobbs, Jean and
Stanley, have moved to Preston, where
Mr, Hobbs has secured a position.
Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Gallaher spent
Sunday with her sister, Mrs. E. Len-
nox, in Wingham,
us by people back home. They are
shipped in bulk to Naples and from
there they go to the troops. The
labels come by air from Canada and
are put on the cartons and Sent for-
ward. It hasn't proved very satisfac-
tory so far, as a lot 'of the boys aren't
receiving thein. I understand the
situation is being investigated though
and we may soon get better service.
It has been raining here for.the past
six weeks and everything is' one sea of
mud. There are a. great many land-
slides along the roads and sometimes
they are blocked for hours until the
engineers get them clear again,. The
engineers have certainly played a big
part in our advance up Italy. There
are a great many bridges and believe
me "Jerry" sure knows how to de-
molish them, The roads just wind hy
and out around the mountains. You
have to drive about five miles by road
to go two across country, So you
can see why the advance has been so
slow here.
About a month ago r spent seven
days leave in kome, trly first leave
since we landed in Sicily, July 12th last
year. Rome is really a beautiful city.
I visited a great many historic and
ancient places while I was there, such
as St. Peter's and St. Paul's Cathedral,
Nero's Palace, Vatican City, and one of
of 'the oldest churches in Rome where
they have the original Holy Cross on
which Christ was crucified. The place
that struck me most was St, Peter's
Cathedral, The celing is all mosaic
covered with twenty-four carat gold.
The floors are all marble and there are
520 altars in the church. The church
Scats 85,000 people. We climbed 42a
steps to 'the peak of the tower and you'
can see all over nettle front the top,
it is 420 ft, above the ground. You
look tight down into the Vatican City
