ROYAL KLEINHARDT
WRITES OF EXPERIENCE ^PANAMA
Surveying Party is Cutting
Road Through Jungles for
Searchlight Point
The following letter was received
hy Rev. amd Mrs.' Chas. Kleinhardt
Friday from their son, Royal, and we
believe the writer's friends too, will
be interested in his new venture.
France Field,
Jan. 17, 1937.
Dear folks,
I'm sorry I didn't write sooner, but
I came over to this Side December
28 and we've been in an uproar ever
since.
'" I received your box of cookies the
day before I left. They tasted very
good, Some were broken up.
We are building a road overe here
right through dense jungle. I am on
the survey party laying it out It sure
is Bome experience to cut your way into a wilderness like we are.
There is a large hill about five
miles back in from the road, where
the army wants to put a large search
light and anti-air raft guns. So the
engineers weire called out, and Co. C.
drew the job.
I've seen two black cats since we
started, and we caught a sloth with
a little one hanging on her. , I've
been watching for a boa., I want a
large one, and get the hide mounted.
!My Buddy shot one back at Corozal,
about 8 feet long, and had it tanned.
Tbfi Bkin is at least -a foot wide
open.
Don't worry about the jungles, for
the percentage is much greater that
a man gets killed .by auto than killed
in the jungles. What I mean is you're
taking much more,risk going to town,
jthan I am going into the jungle.
I received a New Year's card from
Roger and Vera. Are they in Detroit
working?
Well by the time you get this letter, I'll have ten months and a butt
ito do. I've been down here almost
IS months now.
I wish you could be her© just to
take a walk through one of our jungle
trails, just like a tunnel. The orchids
and habiscus are in bloom now, and
it smells just like a flower' shop.
This is Monday afternoon, I'm finishing my letter in the France Field
•Library. I just discovered it.
I wish I could send you a bunch of
bananas. They sell for 8 or 10c a
bunch at the docks where the little
river tugs dock. Thp mess Sgt. keeps
*a tent full all the time for us to
help ourselves. If I don't get my fill
it will be my own fault.
Say, who runs the Brown Corner's
store now? I see Ira is at Long Lake.
Is he farming Webers farm? Is
Charley Ogle Sr., in any business
now? and what?
Write me the news, and I'll try to
be more prompt.
I'll be seein' ya in 10 months and a
butt.
Love, Royal.
Pvt. Royal Kleinhardt,
Co. C. 11th Engineers,

Over Ninety Dollars of Proceeds
to Remain in County for
Paralysis Victims
The Clare Community hall was
taxed to capacity with the immense

Birthday Ball Saturday evening, January 30th. The room was very appropriately decorated with red and
white streamers, flags, potted plants
and an excellent picture of President
Roosevelt, loaned for the occasion by
Mr. Chas. Strange.
Lack of floor space prohibited the
grand march, which was scheduled to
follow the presidents address, but
did not interfere with tlie dancer's
enjoyment of the music furnished by
Freddie Warner's boys.
The net proceeds of the ball were
?134.00. Seventy per cent of this
amount to remain in Clare County, to
be used by local doctors in preventing and caring for infantile paralysis,
the remaing thirty per cent to be
given by the president to the Warm
Springs foundation. About fifty
signatures were secured for the telegram of greeting and the receipts
from these will be apportioned in the
same way.
The committees in charge were:—
General chairman; Estella Artibee
and Ethel Schlegel; Ticket Sale,
Josie Jackson, Publicity, Ada Hoch-

Kleinhardt Friday from their son, Royal, and we believe the writer's friends too, will be interested in his new venture. France Field, Jan. 17, 1937. Dear folks, I'm sorry I didn't write sooner, but I came over to this Side December 28 and we've been in an uproar ever since. '" I received your box of cookies the day before I left. They tasted very good, Some were broken up. We are building a road overe here right through dense jungle. I am on the survey party laying it out It sure is Bome experience to cut your way into a wilderness like we are. There is a large hill about five miles back in from the road, where the army wants to put a large search light and anti-air raft guns. So the engineers weire called out, and Co. C. drew the job. I've seen two black cats since we started, and we caught a sloth with a little one hanging on her. , I've been watching for a boa., I want a large one, and get the hide mounted. !My Buddy shot one back at Corozal, about 8 feet long, and had it tanned. Tbfi Bkin is at least -a foot wide open. Don't worry about the jungles, for the percentage is much greater that a man gets killed .by auto than killed in the jungles. What I mean is you're taking much more,risk going to town, jthan I am going into the jungle. I received a New Year's card from Roger and Vera. Are they in Detroit working? Well by the time you get this letter, I'll have ten months and a butt ito do. I've been down here almost IS months now. I wish you could be her© just to take a walk through one of our jungle trails, just like a tunnel. The orchids and habiscus are in bloom now, and it smells just like a flower' shop. This is Monday afternoon, I'm finishing my letter in the France Field •Library. I just discovered it. I wish I could send you a bunch of bananas. They sell for 8 or 10c a bunch at the docks where the little river tugs dock. Thp mess Sgt. keeps *a tent full all the time for us to help ourselves. If I don't get my fill it will be my own fault. Say, who runs the Brown Corner's store now? I see Ira is at Long Lake. Is he farming Webers farm? Is Charley Ogle Sr., in any business now? and what? Write me the news, and I'll try to be more prompt. I'll be seein' ya in 10 months and a butt. Love, Royal. Pvt. Royal Kleinhardt, Co. C. 11th Engineers, Corozal, C. Z. Panama.
