WAR SERVICE NEWS.
Mr. and Mrs. Floyd Treptow have received word from the son, Sgt. Leland Treptow that he has finally arrived at his destination “somewhere in India,” according to the Kingsley News-Times. He said they had fine and uneventful trip, everyone enjoyed it, had a smooth trip and no one got sick, except that some were affected by the change of rations before they became completely acclimated to them. Kingsley soldiers are scattered to the four corners of the world, but Sgt. Treptow is the first one to report from this country in the Far East.
