Dear Mrs, Johnson:
Just a few lines, to wish yott and
all the ladies of the Clinton War Ser-
vices Association, a Very Happy
Christmas and a Bright and Prosper-
ous New Year. My sincere hope
that this will be the last Christmas
that you will have to think of the
boys over here, that by this time next
year, we will' all be at home and hav-
ing a real old fashioned Christmas.
I would like at this time to say
thank you, to all your fellow workers,
for all that they have.done for'us over
here We may not write very often,
but our thoughts are with you, and
perhaps the reason that we' don't write
very much is because we are such
rotten 'correspondents, and there is
so very little that we can talk about
of interest, and one gets tired of talk-
ing about army life. However we
do appreciate the gifts and kind
thoughts that you send to us, I can tell
you, that it means a lot to us to know
that some day when we have been
out in the rain' and are wet and cold,
We ' have a dry pair of socks to put on
and we have you to thank for them.
In closing I would like to say once
again Thank You for everything, and
that this time next year I will be horn
anch'then I will be able to thank you
in person for all that you have done.
With All Best Wishes. ,
