Editor, THE SHOULDER StTRaP:
Dear Sir:

You know, each copy I receive of THE
SHOULDER StraP I believe to be just about
tops. Then along comes another edition and
I'm groping for adjectives in the superlative
degree.

My best wishes,
H. PATERSON.
Salisbury, Southern Rhodesia.
Editor, THE SHOULDER STRAP:
Dear Sir:

. . . Incidentally, we are looking forward
You are
to be congratulated on being able to main-
tain your terrifically high standard in spite
of wartime conditions. Your last issue was
as good as ever.

M. ROLFE.

“Radio’s famous Quiz Kids, who visited
Victoria in time to get their pictures in the
last issue of THE SHOULDER STRAP, voice
their appreciation in the following letter
just to hand from Eliza Merrill Hickok,
Assistant Program Director for the youth-
ful brain-trusters:

8 South Michigan Ave.,
Chicago, Ill.

Editor, THE SHOULDER STRAP:

Dear Sir: oes

The Quiz Kids are indeed set up to have
their pictures appear in THE SHOULDER
Strap. I hope that if they ever have their
pictures appear again in such a journal it
will be in such a pleasant connection!

Incidentally, THE SHOULDER StRAP is a
most interesting magazine and well put
together. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Thank you for the extra snapshots. They
are a reminder of the wonderful time we
had in your city. I do hope we can come
again.

If you are ever in Chicago, will you call
us and attend a broadcast? We certainly
would like to have you.

Sincerely yours,
ELIZA MERRILL HICKOK.

Assistant Program Director.

which comes into the house.
CHAS. W. MOORE.

Fleet, Hants, England,
Editor, THE SHOULDER STRAP:

Dear Sir:

The 12th Edition of THE SHOULDER
STRAP arrived two weeks ago. I took my
copy, after reading it, to a camp nearby,
where some Canadian soldiers are stationed.
They were delighted to get a Canadian
magazine. A few days afterwards I was
told every soldier wanted it so drew lots as
to who should have it first. They said it
was a real bit of home, so your efforts
brought happiness to many in the camp-

Yours truly,

W. KNOWLES.
Victoria, B. C.

Editor, THE SHOULDER STRAP:

on its make-up and contents. It is in every
way worthy of its predecessors.

Yours very truly,
THOS. W. S. PARSONS,

Commissioner of Provincial Police.
