LETrERs FROM ARTHUR DoTy


Dear Folks:
This is Tuesday and we are all
sitting inside our squad room
keeping out of the rain. These
tropical rains are like the pro-
verbal lrishman's family-you
can never tell when to expect an
other.
l am certainly mighty fine and
hope you folks are the same. We
were given the dinner today for
yesterday. Labor day is a holi-
day and we always have some
thing extra then. We were able
to do it justice even though it was
a day late in coming.
We were in another parade this
morning. However, l don't think
| shall ever be impressed as much
as he first time we followed Old
Glory round the parade ground.
The oath company, Chris COM
pany, came over Saturday after
noon, and | have been visiting
with him most every spare min
ute we have had since then.
am sending you some pictures
of the boys taken around the
range, and also while we were
marching to and from there.
am planning on having good
picture taken as soon as get
some more of my equipment.
guess you can see from these that
| have not withered entirely away
Well, | have received some pa
pers from home now and they are
certainly most welcome. Oh
course it is a most difficult prob
lem to handle mail for several
thousand.
We may leave here at any time
so guess furlough from here
will be impossible. must close
now and take care of Ben m,
rifle. Ii has earned me $500
more per month. so can afford
to take care of it. Love from
ARTHUR.

slips have been set out, and as they
were in the ground previous to heavy

every reason to believe that they will

abundantly in due season.

HEAVY DEMAND this
YEAR FOR MOTOR TRUCKS

Preparations for a mountaineering
spring in point OF business activity
are seen in the heavy purchases OF
equipment and supplies by prominent
concerns.
With factories running to capacity
in the steel business, in the drygoods
trade, in the shoe and textile indus
tries, it becomes a problem to meet
transportation and delivery demands.
The thought given to this is seen in
the extensive investments now being
made in motor trucks.
Norris d Co.. a big Chicago pack
ing house, telegraphed an order last
week to the Autocar Company, Ard
more. Pa, for so more Autocars ia
he added TO their present fleet In
speaking of the business outlook as
reflected in the demand for trucks,
II. M. Coale. sales manager OF the
Autocar Company, said
"The Morris G. Co. order is but a
sample OF the business foresight that
seems to be planning for a big year.
Our repeat orders never ran so heavy
as they are now doing, and other
truck manufacturers, 1 understand.
are having the same experience. De
partment stores, groceries, express
companies and big manufacturing
plants are rapidly adding TO their de-
livery system"
