by Mr. and Mrs. Arthur ii. Graves from
their son, Eric, written ION ship" He re-
ports fairly calm voyage, feeling fine
all the way, not bit sea sick. The trip
seems appetizing, for Private Graves eX-
presses longing for home food or even
Syracuse food. He tells of their taking
up a collection, his company alone giving
/ 500, for the benefit of the cabin boys,
who had lost their relatives in the war.
He says the soldiers never appear as
though they are far from home and 60
ing to war. "They are as happy as a
bunch of schoolboys on vacation" He
speaks of the news received by wireless
that Germany has another peace offer to
give out, but he says they will have to
make her give out a good one and will
do good job at it. His closing express
sion of wish for one of Mrs Hayden's
currant pies seems very realistic to the
many in this community who have been
privileged to partake of the Hayden hos
pitality.
