to say i heartily agree with the gem

,‘it was collected for a good time for
Ithe boys. It was collected from the
.people. it was their hard camel
‘money. Now. a small percentage of
l ex—service men. a. very. very small per-
;centage at that. have decided to use
:the money for an entirely dillerent
.purpose than for which it was raised.
3Have they a right to do this? .‘No. I
‘guess not. i am a contributor. but I
didn‘t contribute for a home. 1 con-
tributed for a good time for the men.
and i would like to see them get ii. i
think there are many more people who
agree with me. Give the boys a share

and a dance. Give them something
