The Belding banner-news. (Belding, Mich.) 1918-1973, 1918-07-03

A. j. Reed, formerly commercial
teacher in the local high schools,
writes the Banner-News a long and
interesting letter of his travels since
leaving Belding, as follows:
Wednesday, June 26, 1918,
Bedding Banner Pub. Co., Bedding,
Mich.
Dear Editor: After spending a
few very busy weeks in the army,
have at last found time to write a few
lines which you may publish if you
see fit. All Of my good friends in
Bedding will please consider this a
personal letter for the minute one
dons Uncle Sans togs, he is kept
very busy indeed and his correspond
ence may receive but slight attention.
About the first of May, the exact
date / haven't kept in mind, arrived
in Columbus Barracks, Ohio. l re-
manned here exactly one week, where
/ received final physical examinations
and where necessary enlistment pa
pers were made out. My experiences
at Columbus Barracks will not write
of, but they were many indeed and
as thousands of men were passing
through this depot post daily, one can
imagine the extreme haste in which
officers andsmen were in. The facil-
tiles for handling enlistments at Co
'lumbus were very few in comparison
to the number of men they were ac-
tually handling so that each individu-
al received very slight consideration
and consequently we began at once
to feel the stress and strain Of real
war times. On Friday we were sent
on our way to Camp Hancock, Au-
gusta, Ga. We were routed via the
Big Four r. r. to Springfield, Dayton,
Cincinnati and then over the South
ern r. r. to Chattanooga then to At
lanta. From Atlanta over the Geor-
gia r. r. to Augusta, and thence to
Camp Hancock. / am forced to dis
pense with a description of my jour-
ney from Columbus as we seemed to
be travelling mostly at night and
therefore missed number of sights
along the way especially through Ken
lucky. The trip was somewhat tire
some and close observation was diff
ficult. We especially noticed the
change in climate as we went farther
south and the farther we went the
hotter it became, We also noticed
the difference in the color Of the peo-
pie as we travelled farther south es-
pecially when we struck Chattanooga
and from Atlanta to Augusta on
either side Of the railroad the shacks
were very numerous, being the homes

ten on May "a, just four days before
his being killed. His last letter is
as follows:
May "a, 1918. =
Dear Mother: Your letter receiv-
ed and was sure glad to hear from
you and to hear that you are all well.
l suppose you will like to get back
home. 1t is funny that May does

before long.

Why suffer from bad back, from
sharp, shooting twinges, headaches,
dizziness and distressing urinary ills? :?
People around here recommend Doan's
Kidney Pills. Could you ask for
stronger proof of merit?

ached constantly and at times l could
not do my work on account of the
sharp pain in my kidneys. If bent

acted irregularly and caused me an

times l was very dizzy. kept getting

Some manufacturers take logs as

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure catarrhal
deafness, and that is by a constitu-
tional remedy. Catarrhal Deafness is
caused by an infamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is infamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed, Deafness
is the result. Unless the inflammation
can be reduced and this tube restored
to its normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever. Many cases of
deafness are caused by catarrh, which
is an infamed condition of the mucous
surfaces. Halls Catarrh Medicine acts
through the blood on the mucous sur
faces of the system.
We will give One Hundred Dollers
for any case of Catarrhal Deafness tnat
cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Med
icine. Circulars free. All druggists,

There is lively argument pro and con
on the subject of armor for airplanes.
True the German machine which
proved to be the death of Lufbery was
steel plated. Equally true, however,
that it was brought down soon after
1t had vanquished him. The opinion
Of Orville Wright is that the armoring
of airplanes is of doubtful utility, be-
cause 1t makes them too slow as a
rule for easy handling, but he adds
that, If desired, armored planes can
be turned out at short notice.
