as the american beauties" Ha! hal

surprised if he knew how many Sam
mics there are over here, not taking
into consideration what we have to
come over yet.
No, indeed, never think for one
moment that we are going to get dis
couraged, for that isn't the American
spirit, Uncle Sam has never started
anything that he never finished and
finished right, too, and we are going
to finish old Kaiser Bill for good, and
1T is not going to take us much longer
to do it either. We all know that the
people at home are behind us and that
is great encouragement to us, too.
believe me. And there is nothing
like the Red Cross and the Y. M. C. IA.

LETTER FROM FRANCE
TO THE PEOPLE OF
GREENE COUNTY
Somewhere In France,
October Ia, 1918.

Dear Ones
With my pen in hand / will try and
tell the people what kind of a trip
| had before l landed and since |
have reached the front. When / left
New York was thinking fast and
strong about the things / was leav-
ing in Tennessee, Well, after several
days of travelling on salty water we
landed in d small place where the
people welcomed us with many cheers.
1t is a great help to a man who has
been seasick and unable to eat when
he sees land, and also raises his spirits
when he sees the people of the land
cheering to him and wishing him
good luck and happy and safe re-
turn. The music of the artillery
shells is always ready to cheer up
our sad and heavy hearts. When
come back to Tennessee / want you
one and all to come and ask me what
| mean if you cannot understand this
letter. If some of you were here
you could easily see why we want to
fight this war to an end.
If you could only see this country
since the war started and up to now
you could see a great change. This
surely must of been a beautiful
France before the war, but now
where great cities stood the boche
artillery have made them into huge
rock piles and many piles Of debris
surrounding the mountains where the
unclean Hun has carried French ma
terial and destroyed it to keep it from
again coming into the hands Of their
rightful owners. We are here to
justify the world and to make the
people Of civilized nations look down
on the Hun. They are a class Of peo-
pie to my estimation that should be
wiped OF the world never to return.
France is country full of his
tory and beautiful scenery. The
women are doing all the work over
here, while the men are helping to
redeem and same their country. We
are all here fighting like the good
soldiers we are and making the world
safer from the Germans every min
ute.
Well, now, ! will have to tell you

know that / am still alive and well,
while many others are not SO lucky.
| have not got a scratch, though. !
have been where the shells have been
bursting thick. We are mending the

they retreated. Have got my mules
out to pick. There is lots of grass
in No Mans Land. Have got my
supper and set it on my wagon and
will finish this letter before it gets
dark.
Haven't gotten any mail for long
time. Now, Mother, if Mary and
the baby are not there when you
read these few lines, Just send them
on to her. Will write TO her when
I get my mail and find out she is still

Callie Russell, Dear Sister and all
How is everybody by this time?
And what are they all doing?
/ just wrote you all few lines
yesterday, but will try and write some
more today, as / am not doing any
thing. | see in your letter you were
telling me about making some apple
butter. / bet it is good, but you
know I never did like apple butter.
Jam is my favorite. / had all / want
ed to eat of jam the other night.
! received letter from Maggie and
Will. And also letter from Sidney
and John. / got that picture of Viola
and it is good. She is growing fast,
too, think.
Tell Aunt Nan / received the chew
ing gum she and Kathleen sent me,
but tell them they need not send
any more, for | can get the same
kind in twenty steps of where / am
sitting now. They had show on
last night and the two American girls
are sitting here now talking to the
boys. Well, one of them is pretty
old lady. She is the girls mother.
The old lady plays the piano and the
Girl sang some songs for us boys.
You were saying something about
me gaining in weight. The last time
was weighed I weighed 155h lbs.
Tell Willie l am having an easier
time than he is. Am not doing very
much work. If you could have seen
me last week sitting back in the res
taurant eating ham, eggs, chicken,
grapes and French-fried potatoes you
would have thought ! was help win
ming the war. | was In large town;
there was about $4,000 people.
You said something about Saturday
night. We don't hardly know when
Saturday or Sunday comes When
| get back you will have to teach me
how to go to Sunday school, for
have forgotten how They have ser
vices here on Sunday morning, but
| am never around at that time. Most
all fthe boys go to church just to
get to go home with the girls. But
it don't do us boys any good over
here. for we can't understand what
they say but a few words. Isn't that
strange how a girl will learn a boy
to 90 to churc hto take them home
or to go to church with them if they
don't speak ten words? That's the
way I will do when ! get back-just
come walking in ON you all. Don't
know when that win be.
Say, never have heard from those
pictures. That girl left this town and
went somewhere else. They are just
here to entertain the soldiers, and
there are very few at this place.
/ received fourteen letters in a
few days. Won't l have some writing
10 do?
Well. will close. will write some
more tomorrow if / am not busy. So
answer soon and long letter.
