We sure appreciate them and hope some day I may make ulp for it. I don't mean that I will be able to financially, but in some other way, perhaps. Well, not much here that is of much interest now but we have more or less cut out the rough play, but one thing we do have plenty of, and that is rain. I understand by the letters I get from home that you are getting your share too, but hope it has changed by now. It has been very cold here, too, I guess mostly because we are near the North Sea and that name would make any place cold. Crops look good but not many people free yet to work at them. Hope they get a fork and forget about us so we can have a new job. We have been on country survey, looking for trouble ,thank the Lord we can't find much) but every other clay or so We have some kind of inspection ort our velu•cIL: and egtlipmeitt which means plenty of wort-, to keep us out of trouble, i guess. As for going home we haven't much idea alien but some • C , 1 tr' •t., will he home this year and I guess some won't. Anyway what is ayear or two? Well as r haven't much more palter and darn little news, I will nu .lntl have supper such as it is. Hope this finds everyone all well as it ,eaves me. Again thanks a lot and I'll be seeing you -sometime. WALTER BEWLEY Dear Neighbours and Friends -- Just a few lines to let you know that your cigarettes arrived safely and I assure you they were very much appreciated,, We have been very lucky on board our ship as we have been able to get Canadian cigarettes in our canteen. We also have Many 0001111011 ditties here that you can't get ashore, such as Cana- dian tooth -paste, razor blades and many other such articles which very few other ships or bases have, due to the kindness and generosity of the people of Ontario. We are do- ing our trial runs now out of the bay of the Isle of Arran, and as the first stages are nearly over we will be either 'heading down under or home for our 30 days leave first and then on to the Pacific, Hope of getting Home is very dint and to all outward appearances we are to . be the only. unit of the Canadian Pacif- ic fence who are not to get leave first, but there is always a slight possibility, and I ant hoping for i the Mood word, Thanking' you again, I will close for now, hoping to see yousoon: EARLE K.

In Europe, Now In Canada, this year of 1945, with Spring just be- coming a reality, it is very hard for us to imagine or encompass the privations and sufferings of the peoples of the liberated countries. With their worldly possessions packed into a tablecloth or little bundle, they are without homes, and sometimes it must seem to then), almost without hope. Canadian Red Cross is bending to the task of providing immediate re- lief for these hungry and homeless. Canadian people with their tradi- tional generosity are opening their purses to a cause they know is worthy. It is hard for us to imagine the plight, for instance, of the Dutch and the Belgians with their passion for cleanliness, quite apart from the larger issues, having to do without soap! A very real privation to people who scrub even the front doorsteps of their houses. In the large Chateaus that housed the once wealthy, two old people often sit down to their three lonely meals—potatoes—if they are lucky. If you look closely at the news- reel pictures of people weeping and laughing with joy, as our troops set them free, the story is there, written on their faces. The children are all eyes. Their faces are pinched and somehow old. They are without joy, and you know at first glance that their vitality has run very low. They need months and years of good nourishing food— milk and meat, vitamins, warm clothing, sufficient bedding to make for restful sleep at night. They need freedom from fear, and all the help we can give them in the time to come.
