THE APPLETON POST-CRESCENT Monday Evening, August 7, 1944 Henry Has an Accident With His Laundry and Atabrine Pills BY MRS. HENRY McLEMORE New York--It seems nothing short of wonderful to me the number of high honors Henry has had bestowed on him since he's been in the army, First he was a squad leader for a while till they caught up with him and busted him. And now word comes that he has been made a tent leader. Read for yourself what Omar Khayam McLemore has to say: "Dear Jeanie: Today I was made a tent leader. I don't know exactwhat this entails but I pretty well guess.
Also, I can pretty well guess why I got the job. A tent tent is order all of leader is to see that the supposed, time and he's supposed to get after anyone who isn't neat. happens that the rest of fellows in my tent are neat and it's. always my stuff that's lying around in everyone's way.

Shirts, socks, handkerchiefs, caps, pants, ties. The color is absolutely fast so I'm going to finish this war looking exactly like a comic opera soldier.
"You asked me why I was made a sergeant. Clean hard work, devotion to duty, soldierly bearing and manner, loyalty, patriotism and a mistake somewhere along the line account for it. Somewhere, I'm sure, some poor Joe, who has been waiting for a staff sergeancy for a long time is still sweating out his promotion that I got. "No, Jean, a staff sergeant does not carry a staff. His scowl, his swagger, his ill-temper and his lordly bearing make a staff unnecessary.
"This will amuse you, I think. I had to try to sew on my own stripes and after about an hour of hard sewing on one sleeve, I put on my shirt and the stripes were Family Reunion At Ciske Dwelling Sherwood A family reunion was held Sunday at the home of Mrs. Anna Loerke.
