HELEN C. LON WINS CONTEST $1MHMGMWGmanfl on Request Two days ago, there was a modest Classified Ad in The Herald placed there by an ex-soldier, He wanted any kind of work, and requested that letters be addressed to Roldier, Box 14 His plea for any kind of work was not answered and efch day as he asks for his letter, the Want Ad Rhyme Judge feels just like thinking & bit about “Our Boys" as we called them once with pride and we have every reason to be proud when we mentioned our New Rritain sons, * Today the Judge feels hetter, for he knows that he is not alone in his thoughts. A letter came with a poem by Mias Helen C. Long, 344 Elm street, which receives the $1 prize, and all that the Judge regrets is that it is not a larger amount which he could lgl\fl for the thought expressed there n. The poem follows: While waiting for the honus (Which they may never give) There is many an ex-service man Who has to work to ilve; Whn Country called, 'tis evident That this man did not shirk; He's willing to do anything Can someone give him work ?
