also have some of the best riders in
the west. They put on rodeo here
about a month ago and they are Ger
tainly putting on good show here
the 18th and 18th of this month and
the papers are coming out now with
articles in regard to it and I will
send you some of the papers now
and then.
II was over in the barracks last
night after supper and some of the
boys were talking about different
parts of the country and young fell
low spoke up and said he came from
around Havre, Clifford, and I asked
him if he knew George Staff and he
said yes and he stated that he knew
him back in Minnesota, and asked
him where and he said Morris. Had
quite chat. William Robert Doe,
son of Ole S. Doe, said that he was
talking to you shortly before he left
there last summer and said to send
his regards to you. Have seen
Lawrence Zahl and AL. Nelson bat
have not seen them for long time
and 1 do not know now where they
are at, possibly in New York unless
they were transferred out of the D.
B. before the boys left for New York.
When 1 arrived at camp there we're
about 100000 in camp.
II receive the Morris Tribune
quite often from Emmett but I
wish that you would call up Jim
Morrison and ask him to kindly send
it to address at heading of this let
ter. I saw where Paul had enlisted
and thought that he was in service
or else at Minneapolis going to
school. Was also under the impress
sion that Harry Lord was in service.
1 am sure Paul will like it fine in the
@. M. G.
Emmett finally had to have his OPP
Grafton and now that it is over am
glad of it, he had it about three
weeks ago and is feeling best ever.
He will be in the next draft and I
am sorry that he is not able to come
at the present time as would like to
stay together if possible, and 1 may
be across the pond before he gets
here.

Co., 10th Bn., 166 D. B. I was act

first night arrived at camp and was
appointed Nov. 9Th, and acted in that
capacity until the time at which I
was transferred which was the 18th
of November.
"The Depot Brigade is no more
than Supply Brigade for the entire
cantonment and practically every
body that arrives at camp will be
assigned to the D. B. and then after

that were sent from here to N. Y.
were taken out of the D. B. and some
of the boys have received word from
them in N. Y. and they say that they
are sleeping in tents and that it also
gets pretty cold there. They kept
me pretty busy in the Depot Brigade.
AS yet have not had a foot of drill
since I arrived at camp.
II note what you say about seeing
young Van Horn at the time that the
troop train passed thru Morris and
of watching for the train thinking
possibly that might be on and about
the eats your wife had already GER
tainly hate to think of passing them
up. Sorry that I did not write and
let you know what had become of
me and want to say that my inten-

a letter and 1 guess someone must
have picked it UP and mailed it and
the letter was never written.

time of my transfer 1 did not get in
the Office at once but acted as latrine

week, keeping it clean, keeping the

Farm Stationery

Farmers should used printed sta
tionery the same as other men.
Nicely printed stationery gets far
more attention than ordinary white
paper. The farmer is getting to be
as good business man as his town
brothers and his business is getting
to be the greatest business in the
world, and he should advertise.
Nearly every farmer has a name for
his farm and most farmers nova
days specialize in some special
branch of farming or raise blooded
stock. Let your friends know it by

PHYSICAL EXAMINATION
FOR FARM SCHOOL BOYS
Other Interesting Happenings at
Agricultural School During Past
Week

DR.. L. J. Cooke, Physical Director
of the University of Minnesota, spent
last Saturday at the farm school Civ
ing the boys a physical and medical
examination. This is the same ex-
animation as is given to all freshmen
who enter the State University and
is for the purpose of discovering any
physical defects which might need
correction. Whens any student is
found ailing or defective in any way
he is given special care and work
with a view to remedying the trou-
BILE. In the evening the doctor gave
the boys talk on the subject of

The teaching situation was re-
lieved last Friday by the return of
three professors from St. Paul, who
had been with the Home Guard on
duty. They were Mr.. Odland, Mr..
Volden and Mr.. Schweickhard. The
rigorous conditions of military life
were not picked to suit. the consti-
tuition of Mr.. Volden and he was
kept from his duties at the school for
several days by case of pleurisy.
The farm school closes today for
the holiday vacation and most of
the students and faculty will go to
their homes for the two weeks.
Prof Jordan returned last Satur-

THE CHRISTMAS MESSAGE.
1t Reached the Blind of Sight and
Should Touch the "BIind of Heart"

It Heached the Blind OF Sight and
Should Touch the "BIind of Heart"
One Christmas eve a lady was walk
ing in the city Of Berlin enjoying the
pretty sights. She stopped to look at
a large window where was laid out the
Iowly stable in Bethlehem.
Before the window stood two little
girls, their faces beaming with pleas
ure, while they talked to another little
girl behind them, around whom they
had their arms. This dear child was
quite blind and to her poor sightless
eyes the pretty window told no story.
But the loving little friends told the
blind child of the rude stable, the hay,
the cows and the sheep, the sweet
mother beside the manger in which the
Christ child was sleeping. the open
door through which the wondering
shepherds were coming, and the bright
star above which shed a soft, silvery
light over all, and the wise men with
rich gifts for the little sleeping babe,
who was the Son of God, our Saviour.
The little blind girl listened till her
face grew happy, and she clasped her
hands together, saying again and again.
"Ah, that is beautiful!
There are those who have blind
hearts, instead of lind eyes, because
they do not know the blessed story,
says S. E. Bull.
