TRANSCRIBED FROM THE MENA WEEKLY STAR NOVEMBER 1, 1918 P. 1
I’m glad they are getting patriotic even though we are nearly to the war’s end. At the beginning lots of people didn’t realize what the war was about, but they see it differently now. I’m glad they’re the best presidents we ever had and the best president we ever had and the best government any country ever knew.
NOTES: Wayne Addison wrote this to his friends and acquaintances of Polk County. He was born on January 15, 1895 at Polk County, Arkansas and died on October 14, 1957 at Los Angeles, California. He is buried in the Inglewood Park Cemetery at Inglewood, California. His military headstone identifies him as an Arkansas PFC serving in Co 1, 50 Inf., 20 Div., in World War I. He enlisted in the regular army on April 8, 1917 at Oklahoma City and was stationed at Camp Sevier, Greenville, S. C.
