CORINTH
Sergt Tenney at Camp Dodge, Iowa, Will
Try for a Commission.


The. following letter from Sergeant
Clarence Il. Tenney of the medical de-
partment, 33sth field artillery, located at
Camp Dodge, Iowa, and received by his
sister, Mrs. +. A. Burroughs OF East
Orange, will be read with interest by
people in this vicinity, as Mrs. Tenney
was resident of Corinth before going
to Iowa Dec, H., 1917.
Dear Sister: Got welcome letter from
you some time ago and III now endeavor
to send you in answer TO it one of my
'literary monstrosities" Am still at
Camp Dodge and have no idea when we
will get out of here for more active
war zone than this, although ! am hop
ing that the date is not so very far
ahead. The latest rumor, / believe, is
that we get out of here for Cuba or Tex
as or some other icy seaport about Jan.
8. / believe it may be more or less true.
But very little that hear in the army
ever comes true, and as a result | don't
believe anything l hear. and half that |
say myself.
If / am successful in my most recent
undertaking, | won't leave here before
April s, for / have put in an application
10 the bHlIu Which,
starts here Jan. s. Am as high as | can
get i'm this department and maybe | have
got too much ambition for kid.
Had five days off last week and went
up in the north part of the state and
visited ma" and the rest of the family.
Am inclosing couple of ads. for two of
''Feinzes" 81 varieties; possibly you can
find use for them. The other FELLOW is
the second sergeant of the pill and poison
battery. Only there is a possibility that
you won't know which is the other fel-
low.
How are Frank and Arthur these chilly
winter days2 Fine, I'm hoping. Sup
pose that back there in the hills there is
the usual winters supply of snow. Here
it has been unusually cold for December. !
The mercury dropped down to 81 when
was up to mothers.
These barracks are rather hard to heat |
and keep warm but we get along better |
than | thought we would when we land |
ed here. Had the biggest feed Thanks
giving day that you ever saw spread on :
the board, 'by homespun beauty poured.
There was enough stuff left to furnish
material for hash until spring.
Well, | will close for this time and am
hoping to hear from you and yours in
the very near future, so my goodnight
salute. Sergt. Clarence f. Tenney.

own statesmen would strike a balance.
This is one OF the reasons why some close
observers believe an offer of peace COM
ing at this time probably has more real
intentions of peace behind it than the
previous ones. No one here believes Ger
many's best terms would be put on the
table at the first offering and those in.
clined to this view think proposal of
peace now is at least an attempt to start
a discussion of terms.
From what may be gained of the war
aims of the allied governments as ex-
pressed by their statesmen and by Presi-
dent Wilson, such an offering of terms
as outlined in the foregoing could not be
considered as the basis of satisfactory
peace although it might contain some of
the elements.

the state. The solicitors there have
| brought in 500 new names. and the town
of Lyndon has a population of only B.,
204. 1t is expected that st. Johnsbury
will have 900 new members before Sat
urday night.
Orange county reports SOP new mcm-
bers from seven towns and the full quota
of 9s7 is predicted before the campaign
closes.
The outlook in Orleans county is good
for its quota of 2,50S.
Addison county has reached in excess
of 80 per cent of. its allotment of | .562
and there is to be no let up in the work
till the final minute of the last day
In Barre, Montpelier, Mortified and
Waterbury excellent work is being done,
and while total figures from these places
are not obtainable the prediction is made
that Washington county will make good
on its quota of 1888, which is the larg-
est number to be secured in any one
county.
I'VE will exceed our quota in Wind
sor," is the report that reached head
quarters in this city this afternoon Some
of the Windsor county towns have per-
formed most excellent work. and while
they have reached the prescribed number
they are not letting up bit, but are
going forward TO the end of the campaign
with the same spirit and energy that
marked the first day.
Burlington needs speeding mp OF the
required $500 new subscribers, but 900
had been obtained at noon to-day. Boy
scouts are now hustling for subscribers.

cations are doing finely Jericho has 65

While actual figures have not been

expected and extraordinary happens, the
llloted figures 2.43O will be reached.

per cent The facts are being laid before
the military committee.

Regarding government arsenal produc-
ton, Mr. Hanson said the impression
that they are away behind the times, y
was wrong. The arsenals compare very
favorably, he said, with foreign govern
ment and American private factories.
The principal difficulty of American ar
senals, he explained. is in retaining
skilled workmen. Rife production has
been greatly increased, he said, by adop-
ton of the modified Enfield The Amer
lean rifle ammunition. he said is much
superior to that of any of the allies, and
at least equal to Germany's.
American machine gun manufacturers,
Hanson declared, have had virtually no
from the government.
Most of their orders coming from abroad.
In reply to questions by Senator Wads
worth the witness admitted that if ma
chine guns had been promptly ordered
when the government went into the war,
General Pershing's machine gun units
now would not be required to use French
arms and ammunition.
Upon conclusion of Hanson's testi-
