zEA BOY WRITES HOME
Tells Of Soldier Life at Camp Cody,
New Mexico-Telis Mother Not
to Worry, He Is in Safe Place

Mr.. and Mrs. George Zea have re
ceived letters from their sons. George
and Loney, who are both serving in
the army. George is stationed at
Camp Cody, Deming, N. NJ. and Loney
is a member OF the Rainbow division
which is encamped at Hampstead. N
|Y. Mr.. Zea has handed the Review
the two letters which will be OF inter
est to the friends of the boys.
Camp Cody, Oct. 6, II.
Dear Mother:
Thought i would drop you a few
Zines % fer y6da kil03kss am nnu n
usual. How are all the folks at home;
all well hope. -
Today has seemed more like Sun
day to me than any Sunday since
have been here. My squad and ] all
went I'D town today and we stayed
there all day until roll call. We had
our pictures taken in, squad forma'
ton and are going to have one. each.
They will be about s by 10 inches.
got it just on purpose for you and you
can see what kind of squad l am
in and tell me whether you like the
looks of them or not, ha, ha. And then
l had two dozen post cards taken. l
will send some of them to you. That
is l will send them when they are fin
ished.
What is Orrin doing now? Is he
out to Joe Pollock's yet? suppose
he will make quite bit of money
this fall picking corn. l wish l was
going to be there to pick some Of that
high priced corn.
Say. mother, l know you have been
worrying about me by the way you
talked in your last letter. Won't you
try and quit it, because | am in one
Of the safest places in the world and
Lonnie is too, because they are not
going across, don't think, and if they
do they won't have to fight, because
the Germans are so near done now
that there isn't any fun in it. We
get letters from France every once
in and while and every one of them
says that they are just raising cain
with the Germans, and they are all
betting the war will be overinside of
four months or by the first of Feb
ruary. So you don't need to worry
about us.
Say, mother, l have a present am
going to send you as soon as l can
get something to send it it. / know
you will like it because Mrs. Hewlett
got one from Ralph last summer. and
you said you would like to have one.
Well, mother. l will have to close.
Hoping to hear from you often, l am,
Your son, George.

NO PLACE LIKE HOME
Loney Zea Writes and Says That Of
All the Places He has Seen
Oenison 10 the Best
Hempstead. N. Y. Oct.

Hampstead, N. Y, Oct. 6, II.
Dear Folks at Home: received
your letter today and was sure glad
to get it and know you were feeling
good. l am feeling fine and hoping
before long to be on my way to
France, as think If we don't start
before long we won't get there at all,
and that wouldn't do at all, because
now that am started I would like to
get across. ! want to hurry up and
get it over so I can come back to lit
tie old Denison again. l have never
seen a place yet that l would rather
be in than home. There was a fellow
here today who has been in Denison
on visit and has some relatives
there and it seemed good to get to
talk to someone who knew something
about your own home town. He said
it was the best town he was ever in
and that made me feel better than
ever.
was glad that you thought the pic
lures were good. didn't think they
were very good. But l want you to
send me some pictures from home and
l want yours to be the first one that
get. too
Say. did you get the trunk yet?
was just wondering whether you got
| it or not.
Tell dad that am going to come
marching home some day. 1t may not
be right away, it may be year or
so, but am going to come back home,
and the quicker the better it suits me.
l heard that the Second was going
to be busted all to pieces again. II
it does l hope George gets to come
over here with me. haven't been
satisfied since got here and for no
other reason than would like to be
with George, but l guess l have got
to take it the way it goes. No matter
what comes.
Well l will have to close as it is
getting late and the fellows want to
go to sleep and l have the lantern
burning. So write when you can and
don't forget the pictures when you do.
| remain as ever,
Loney Zea.
