ring his bell.

together at the intersections of the

to run into Chestnut street and at
tempt to run parallel with the car. In
doing this, however, the auto got in

Another LETTER
from over THERE
Corporal Gerald Cream Writes to
Mother in Tender Vein

Corporal Gerald P. Cream, son OF
Mrs. M. r. Cream, of Main street, has
written the following letter to his
mother from the rendezvous in
France where he and the other New
Britain boys are billeted:
Dear Mother:-I have wondered
often whether you received my last
letter or any Of the others which |
have sent to you since I left New
Haven, but there is no way of telling
until I receive a letter from YOU in re-
turn. 1t sure is pretty tough await
ing mail, because it doesn't come very
often, and with all the rumors float
ing around over here, we're always up
a tree for real facts. It's a hard
thing to write a letter with the rules
against this and that which the CEN
sor has placed on u.s.
II don't know how you receive
these letters, whether everything I
write is in them or whether it is
scratched out. I find out over here
that a soldier can allot home a GER
tain percentage of his pay and as soon
as some Of the blanks arrive I am
going to allot some to you. 1t will
month, so when write to you about
it, expect to receive your allotment
the first of every month.
write to me, Ma dear. about
home and all the folks. Tell me all
the news about the baseball games
and other sports and when you go
downtown, say Good morning to the
soldiers and sailors monument for
me. My French comes in very handy
over here and by the time I get home
I'll be able to speak the language to
perfection. I have lots Of fun speak
ing with the French people whom we
meet and I get along quite we'll with
them. It's hard to understand them
all the time because they speak too
fast for one who is not used to catch
ing their lingo as they speak it, to
understand them.
I'VE are almost completely cut off
from the other world (by the other
world we almost invariably mean t
the United States) in fact, We are |
We are as badly off as the people in !
Plainville. Gee, I wish I was home |
for tomorrow, Sunday, just to hear
you sing again, just to hear your
voice in church. Give my regards to !
Professor Harmon and the rest of the |
choir I'll write to them all before |
long, though I don't know when they |
viii get them. Gee, you don't know |
how a fellow loves his folks when |
he's away from them, far away. |
When I say far away, [ mean with an |
ocean Of seasickness between them.
IT can't think of anything else to I
write to you tonight, so 7 will close,
hoping to hear from you before
Christmas. Your loving son, Gerald
