January 22, 1045. The Delta Democrat-Times, ireenville, Miss. To the Editor: An article appeared In the Democrat-Times the other day hat seemed to tell a story of two of America's most imporlant men. Important because they are fight ng -for our happiness and -country. Very probably Americnn has henrd ol Th' Roosevelt Dog wo der how they feel about Here's how it strikes me-The sailor and soldier were leave, and leaves aren't any long ot that, to see his sick w.

and attend his father's funer in order, but the dog had all tl time in the world to get to hi destination nnd start a breed. course Mrs. Elliott Kooseve might have had (o wait a lays longer to start the breed I think it was much more im portant for the sailor to see hi vife and be with her for a sho while, and for the soldier to tend his father's funeral than dog to arrive a few days lours earlier. Very little probably would ha been lost by Ihe dog's arrival little late, but it might have be a matter of life or death if th sailor's wife hnd been sick It might have been the differen- between the soldier attending his father's funeral. I sincerely believe Ihe case the sailor and the soldier much more important than th room road comman down which Nazi tanks were attacking.
