Wayne Johnson has recently been affiliated with the military radio station system known as MARS, and will be able to send messages to military personnel in all parts of the world.

This service is offered free of charge to the public. He can send and receive messages via this system.

Mr. Johnson states that his is a service by ham radio operators, and there is no guarantee of delivery of the messages, not can the time it takes to get a message to an individual be determined exactly.

Greetings for holidays or special occasions are suggested types of messages and he invites those who have relatives or friends in the service to make use of this free service. The name, address and serial number of the soldier must be given with the message.

Anyone who would like more information about this service is invited to call Mr. Johnson, Blackburn 6-2765. His residence is the upstairs apartment in the Noel Schelling house on Spruce Street.
