SEWARD BOY
POTS TEXAS
ON BAD LIST
A letter received by Deputy Mar
hal Kvans, from .1. (’. Tolman, who
- in San Diego Cal. where his two
boys an* in the Service, states.“l have
hud no decision as yet upon my ap
plication to go to the front, so don t
know what is going to happen; But,
if 1 don’t make it there, 1 am going
o keep trying, and as a last resort,
will join the Salvation Army. Think I
have driven dogs long enough to be
eligible.
“Just received a card from Joe
Campbell, who was on his way to an
Atlantic Port for shipment overseas,
He was passing through Texas when
ho wrote the card, He said that he
would rather be at the front, in Heli,
or any other place than have to stay
in Texas. He got off quick, was only
in training here in San Diego about
one month, while some of those he
had been with has been here a year or
more in training. The training he got
while in Seward helped him along
quickly, and came in handy. All the
Sewatxl hoys arc doing fine.”

Puis Terrazas. He has lived in Cali
fornia the greater oart of the time
but returns to El Paso frequently.

In return he visited I'd Peso and \\h n
