the time and trouble to carry on. For,

Letter From Ted Mitchell
Mr. and Mrs. Frank Mitchell had
word last week from their son, Ted,
who is on active service in Korea.
For some weeks Ted had been in
the hospital, suffering from shell
shock but is now driving an ambul-
ance. Under his care is a group of
orphans numbering 300. Children who
have lost their parents through death
or separation. Ted tells his parents
the children were housed in a place
without any heat, so the soldiers
each gave five dollars of their money
to buy two stoves. They had no blan-
kets and the poorest of clothing, and
were cold, hungry and desolate. He
asked his sister to send any garments
her own Children had outgrown and
said when the parcels came from
Canada they were shared with the
children and the boys had more
pleasure in seeing the little waifs' de-
light than having the treats them-
selves. One little boy adopted Ted
as his companion for six weeks and
was with him whenever possible, and
so hats off to one of our local boys
who for a year has served in the
Canadian forces at war but is also
engaged in bringing some comfort
and happiness to the lost children of
Korea. If there is anyone in the
country who has good outgrown gar-
ments for children or better than
that something new and could send
a small parcel ,Ted will see that some
of the children under his care are
made happy and comfortable.
