"TWO From Albert"

Albert Fcnnell. formerly Of Wal
halla, writes his mother, Mrs. w. NJ.
Fenncll, OF Blacksburg, two inter
csting letters. Albert has been "in
the thick of 1t at the Montdidier
sector" Of which we read so much in
the recent past. He writes:
American Expeditionary Force,
July 80, 1918.
My Dear Mother:
1t has been quite a good while
since | wrote to you, but | hope you
have not been uneasy. Sometimes
it is absolutely impossible to write
or even think Of it, but now we are
back in rest camp for while. CT
don't know how long, thought.
DO you remember the Lieut..
Holmes you sent my letter in care
of that time? He has been killed
and everybody misses him. He was
line man. But the Germans paid
dearly for what they did, and are
still paying.
OF course you have seen about the
newly-launched American drive. |
was present at it's beginning and
certainly saw sights that will last
me lifetime. We stayed on the
advance for five or six days and
were then relieved. We have been
on the front for nearly three months
at one stretch.
Have you received your STARS
and Stripes yet? think it is a
good paper. What it prints refer
ring to the A.E.F. is mostly official,
and hope you will enjoy it. was
glad to get the clippings you sent
me.
We are having fine weather and
are stationed on a beautiful river,
whose banks are tree-clad cliffs. and
on one bank is the railroad. am
going to try and take a swim this
AFTERNOON.
Tell everybody hello. and write
often.
Lots Of love to all. Albert.
August I, 1918.
My Dear Mother:
| have just received your letter
written on the fourth Of July, and
was surprised and sorry to her Of
the serious illness OF Uncle Monroe
lsbell, and | hope he has recovered
by now.
We have been on the move so
much lately that | haven't had a
chance to write until just Il day or
two ago.
had few pictures made yester-
day-to the disaster OF the camera.
On account Of it's being such
cloudy and rainy day they are not
very good, but they are the best I
could get. I tried to get some small
kodak pictures made. but the
Frenchman didn't have smaller
camera.
What do YOU think of the new
Franco-American success on the So
issons front? 1t was this division
that started them on the run that
morning about daybreak" Now
we are on another front for some
time; l don't know how long.
No, we didn't celebrate the fourth
Of July In any unusual way, for we
were on the Montdidier front at that
time. Of course we had the fire
works, but the "Fritzies" didn't en-
Joy 1t much, think. The artillery
gased them the 4th. 1t was report
ed or rumored that they were piled
up"
News is scarce. so I will close for
while. Hope you are all as we'll
as | am. and that will hear from
you as often in the future as | have
lately
Lots of love. Albert.

Somewhere in France,
August II, 1918.
Dearest Dad: AS have some lei

few lines. Guess you have been
reading about our most important
advances here Of late. We'll, can
say that l have done my share in
my line Of work. ] got slightly
"gased" in the latter part of our
hardest work, but went to a good
base hospital, and am now on my
way back to my company, feeling
pretty good. My stable sergeant Is
hore with me, as he happened to the
same bad luck as I did. He's a fine
fellow. He Is from Anderson, S. c.,
and knows Bob and Plumer Nichol-
son, Of Anderson. have been
working with him about eight
months, getting along fine. | don't
have to hike, drill or do any guard
duty--just regular hauling. can
make myself pretty comfortable
more SO than | could If was in the
company. stay with company
headquarters. | think We are going
to get rest SOON
We sure have had good luck so
far. We have had a few casualties,
but most Of them will be we'll soon.
l don't think my health is injured
any by the gas. Think I'll be as
strong as ever soon. You need not
think that because | have been in
the hospital | have been most dead,
for was only slightly gased. 1t
sure was luck at that. | guess this
trouble will be over before always.
and then we will all be proud Of our
experience.
noticed a long time back that
my name had been turned over to
the deputy sheriff's hands to see as
to my whereabouts. That's nice
stuff to pull on volunteer! Ha,
ha! Guess he can very easily find
out II he will inquire in the right
manner. 1t would be very nice
trip for him. If no should take no.
'tion that he wanted to see me in
person. Twould give him quite
lot moro experience than he got on
his trip to Now Jersey, | guess.
am glad to know that crops are
good In the States this year. Guess
you are all having some good rest
these days. l think i will take
real good one that will count when

course I am expecting to do.
Say, does mama worry about me
much now? There isn't one particle
of use. for I'm getting along fine all

the camp service people put Red
Cross cars at the disposal of the
nurses who wish to get away for
ness.
The American Red Cross will
provide mourning brassards to be
worn by the rcla':Yes of men who
have given their lives to their coun-
try. The brassard, which is to be
worn on the left sleeve. midway be-
tween the elbow and shoulder, Is a
band of black broadcloth, or other
material. three inches wide, on the
surface Of which regulation mill
tary star is embroidered in gold
thread. The number of stars on the
brassard will denote the extent of
the sacrifice made by each family.
Brassards will be furnished free to
parents and widows and at cost to
other members Of the family. Bras
sards will be made and distributed
by American Red Cross Chapters
working in conjunction with the To-
cal units Of the Woman's Commit
tee. Council National Defense.
During the week of DecemberN16
to 23, inclusive, there will be- t4 &
Christmas roll call Of the whole
American people for membership IN
the American Red Cross. Henry
p. Dawson, chairman of the War
Council Of the American Red Cross,
has authorized this statement. Lists
Will be open for every american in
every corner Of the world, so that it
may be known that the whole ma
ton, at home and abroad, Is regis
tered for the cause. The American
Red Cross wants to again give the
world notice, not only that America
can fight. but that to the last man,
woman and child, we stand squarely
for mercy, honor and good faith
among nations.
At the close Of the Christmas
membership campaign Of 1917 there
were 22,000.000 Americans enrolled
in the American Red Cross. There
are also 100000 members in the
Junior Red Cross.
This year, both as a Christmas
observance and as a renewal of
nationwide pledge of loyalty, the
American Red Cross will again put
before every one the Importance Of
standing by the flag; for the Amer
lean Red Cross in this great fight
for peace, represents the whole
spirit of what we are fighting for.
This will not be call for money.
1t will be summons to Americans
everywhere to line up for the Ameri-
lean Ideal. We cannot all fight, but
this one thing everybody can do.
The American Red Cross member
ship fec Is one dollar. Half Of this
remains with the local chapters to
be used for expenses and for the re-
lief of our soldiers and their fami-
lies; the other half goes to the Ma
tional Red Cross treasury. There
will be no allotment Of quotas to any
community; the quota in every dis
trict will be the limit of the adult
population. When the roll call
comes every American. old and
young, will be called on to register
and add the weight of his or her
name to the Red Gross message.
Let us answer with one voice to
the word Of President Wilson when
he said: "I summon you to the COM
radeship!" Mrs. J. A. Steck.

To give the army and navy nurses
comfortable place in which to
spend their hours off duty the
American Red Cross will provide
special nurses recreation houses at
all large base hospitals. These
houses were provided as soon as it
was learned that the nurses had no
attractive rest rooms and we're OBJ
liged either to stay in their bed
rooms or sit in narrow corridor-like
spaces set aside for them. The
nurses keep house for themselves.
At hospitals inaccessible by trolley,
the camp service people put Red
Cross cars at the disposal of the
nurses who wish to get away for
an hour or two from scenes Of sick
ness.

know that from September 1, 1917.
to June 13, 1918, the Red Cross dis
tributed 5,875,000 knitted garments
to the army and navy Of the United

$4,000 knitted articles were sent
to the Red Gross commissioners in
France and Italy for distribution to
soldiers. sailors and civilians.
Chapters and individual workers
are being urged by the War Indus

not to buy wool in the open market,
but to secure their materials
through the department of supplies.
