Men of the United States Marine Corps say letters keep up morale . . . Write that V-Mail letter today.
Funny, how it's the little things he always writes about so far from home . . . the little things that seem important to him . . .
"Is Johnny keeping my tools in shape ... Do they still pitch horseshoes back of Kelly's?
. . Sure miss those picnics that we used to have with Mary at Birch Grove . . ."
But maybe it's not so funny when you stop to think of it. For isn't it the little things that help mean home to all of us?
It happens that to many of us these im¬portant little things include the right to enjoy
a refreshing glass of beer. Cool, sparkling, friendly, beer is a sigh of satisfaction . . . smacking of the lips . . a forehead wrinkle erased . . . a firm-set mouth relaxing into a friendly smile.
How good it is ... as a beverage of modera¬tion after a hard day's work . . . with good Mends . . . with a home-cooked meal.
A glass of beer or ale—not of crucial importance, surely . . . yet it is little things like this that help mean home to all of us, that do so much
to build morale—ours and his.
