 The letter is as follows: I've been waiting a month for the overland mail to get here but I guess some darned Hun got there first with torpedo. If I lose much more mail this way I'll feel like shooting up an internment camp-that is if the op portunhty to shoot some on the field of battle does not come soon."
 There is not much chance for my
 bunch--reserve corps-to get across to France. We are all engaged in the manufacture of ammunition and keep the supply going full tilt. l have been trying to get in the active line and we have done much drilling after working hours. This is in case something in the line of an invasion is sprung on the United Kingdom, but there Is no chance of anything in that line for the Germans are all troi ha oil A, :nfx the fcct that It's a long way to Tip perary.'
 So the old country made good on the Victory loan. It was all sub- scribed in a short while.

 Getting a little outfit together I have started in to batch. My! how good those hot cakes tastedl I did not have plain iron pan but had one that was enamelled and the hot cakes stuck-what did that matter but real hot cakes and real honey. liked them so we'll that last night had another hot cake session and turned in and slept the sleep of sourdough.
 Riddle, we are all fine here in the old country, there are no hardships and we are in the war to win. The people of the United Kingdom take 1t all as a matter of course and everybody Is busy doing something to help Everybody helps, and there are no kickers.
 Now, little girl. please give my re- gards to all old Nomites and tell them we are all doing our little bit to put the Prussian where he belongs and 1t wont be very long before we accomplish what we have started out to do.
 Best love to you and Bill. Yours always. DAD.
