Following is a letter received by Mrs. Roy MaeLaren from overseas, Dear Mrs. MacLaren: You must think me very ungrateful for not writing to thank you for the W.I. 'parcel that was sent about the end of January, To be honest, however, I didn't get it until yesterday through some slip-up in the Post Office here. When I got the notifi- cation slip yesterday and went to collect my parcel, they asked me if I had been away some place be- cause apparently the box had been here for a couple of weeks. I had been here all the time but they were unaware of it I guess. Still I was very glad to get it even late and everything was in good shape as always and everything very suitable to our needs. I want to thank the W.I. War Service Committee and Girl's Dance Club for the very good work that they have done and are still doing for the fellows over- seas. Their parcels have been arriv- ing regularly since 1 have been over here and are always first class boxes too. I find it hard to say just how much I appreciate it all. The news looks good these days and we are all hoping that this will be the end of the war filially. :Sorely Jerry' can't hold outso very much longer against such odds; as they hate been doing, Everyone 'here –is very opti- mistic and are sure that the end is not too far away. It will sure be swell to have the enol come now and get hack home again. It will be too good to be true almost. I still work in the office here and don't miner the job too much, We were all rest- less while we were having the good Weather last week but the situation has changed. a bit now because the weather has .been pretty' unsettled for the past few days with rain vary frequently and a chilly wind blow- ing. Once again let me tell you that I am very thankful for the swell parcel and that I appreciate all that the three organizations have done for ns, 'Best wishes to " all once again. Sincerely, JIM CAMPBELL.I ':mm. Harvey McLirnon of Hen- sall has had a most happy reunion with his brothers, Major Robert Me- Larnon, London, overseas five years, and Sgt.

There is nothing to write about anyway so you didn't miss much, We had a very good winter over here and the weather is fine now. I'just want to thank you for the parcel that I got from the Institute three days ago. Everything was in good shape so you can thank all the restfor me. Don't forget the ladies who made the candy, ,ROY KYLE. Dear Gladys: Received your letter a few days ago and am always glad to hear from anyone at home, for you know letters from home are a tonic over here and I have been get- ting a lot of them lately and am in high spirits. I received the Institute box yesterday in very good shape and. I want you to convey my thanks to all the people who contributed so generously toward it. Two weeks ago I ran into Don Willard down- town and we took in a show that af- ternoon but have not seen him since so I don't know whether he is still here or not. Froin all reports you. are having nice weather there again after that long, hard` winter. We had remarkable weather here this spring lots of sunshine and very little rain although it is not quite so nice out today. I suppose all the lassies will be out with their new .Easter bon- nets in Hensall today, Last week was a memorable one for me as we spent three days at Windsor and went on a tour of the Castle and Eton Col- lege. The week previous I was pres- ent at the graduation of officers at the Royal Military College and their Majesties and the two princesses were there and I happened to be very close to them so had a much better view of them than the time they were in Canada. GARNET MOUSSEAiJ. Dear Gladys: Received your let- ter a few days ago and your swell parcel which the Institute sent came today, in which Mrs. Goodwin's name was enclosed. I wrote her a line of thanks. The parcel was sent on Jan, 31st and everything in it was just swell. The candy was sure nice. The boys certainly enjoyed it. A couple of small kids gathered and Trow they liked it. It was really too bad about Ben Dick and. Mike Pass- more also Laird Hudson, That is the way things go. BYRON (Doc) KYLE, bear Gladys; I received your let- ter and also my parcel from the Hensall Institute. The card in parcel showed Margaret McGregor's signs- .ttre. What a wonderful parcel!
