JOE VANVACTER
BACK HOME AGAIN
Bert Kesler went up to Elk
City Friday and met Joe Van-
Vacter who returned on that
day from the hospital at Clin-
ton. where he has been for the
past several weeks. Although
hp is able to come home ar;d
get around some he is still in
,a very weakened condition as
i a result of his wound and long
confinement. But since he is
able to get some exercise now
we hope to see his condition
improve faster than it has been
doing and that he will soon
gain back his normal strength.
