Letters From A Soldiers Wife
Dearest John:

Dearest John:
Home again among all the familiar
Lnlngs, now strangely unfamiliar,
WIN little pain round my heart. In
new York there was the interest of
unaccustomed surroundings and ex-
Cltement to fill my mind. 1t is only
Dack mere in Cleveland that l realize
Iuliy the meaning of our farewell the
nignt your ship sailed away toward
France.
Not until tonight could write what
nave found no words to say.
want you to know, dear, that
away down where | feel the truth
am giad you are wearing the uniform
OF the United States. And that you
VIII wear 1t over there. Since you
went to the training camp and COM
menced to study the war, feel the
Justice of our country going into it,
can't say have wanted war; no
woman does sincerely, but if it had to
come ! am glad it is now.
These thoughts lie deep, John;
deep below feminine fear and grief.
l suspect they run in my blood. You
hardly would believe, remembering
me as tlmld, uItra-feminine crea-
ture, that l come of fighting stock.
Yet generations ago my family fought
IN the Revolutionary war; my grand
father was one of the heroes of Mis-
sionary Ridge and my father was with
Colonel Roosevelt at the charge up
San Juan Hill. Something they sent
down to me is coming to the fore; it
Is the thing which caused you to Join
the National Guard long ago, and sent
you away smiling. Maybe it is love
Of right. Whatever it is, it is strong
er than the happiness of our wonder
fully perfect marriage, or love for our
children. Perhaps it is part OF those
things-their foundation. For with
out 1t we should rot know happiness
Or love. With this better understand
Ing / shall serve periodically as you,
II less gloriously.
For not to me nor to hundreds of
other women soldiers throughout the
country Is 1t given to Joy in the pomp
and pageantry of war So often
think Of our boys as l saw them in
New York, bearing themselves PRIDE

music. beneath their banners.

soldiers, will care for them and give
them victory. and that never. never

'favver" back to us!
John, it was wonderful! The story
was effective as no amount of argu-
ment could have been. and they were
quite satisfied and happy. They are
eager to do something. l am going to
let Betty sell Thrift Stamps. Ruth is
almost too tiny yet.

union so perfect as ours will dissolve
into nothing less! Life hasn't always
been smooth-running for US; we have
known trial and disappointment. But
our faith in each other has held firm
and love been strengthened by those
things.
If it should be that l do not rightly
understand the sense of assurance,
and you are not to come here again, l
still know you will come back to us,
John! Somewhere, some time, we
shall be together! Our little daugh-
ters will be taught to love your mem
