Took Advantage of Soldiers Absence.
Joe Taylor, a young farmer from

now at Camp Dodge, hands a roast to
the man who rented his homestead.
His letter is produced in the Schafer
Record. The young man says the
renter took his share of the crop and
left Joe's share to the tender mercy
Of his neighbors. Joe hands the whole
outfit a we'll deserved roast as fol-
lows:
"It seems funny that after all the
noise, good wishes, great speeches,
and other stunts they started us off
with, there is not one man in McKen-
zie county patriotic enough to look
after soldiers interest at home
when he is away. Now people can
have a good time while l am away
and unable to help myself, but when
I get back from France there will be
battle along the Little Missouri
river that will make look like
tea party given by ladies aid. 1t
also is surprising that I haven't one
friend in time of need out of all of
those who were protesting undying
loyalty while l was getting ready to
leave.
