NORMAN ANDERSON WRITES IN
HOME FOLKS IN WARREN
Port DuChateau, France.
Sept. %, 1918.

| Il
Sept. %, 1918.
Dear Folks:
Hurrah received letter from YOU
yesterday-the one Ruthie wrote Aug.
18th. also received four letters from
cousin Alma the same time as 1 got
yours. I just can't express how good
it felt to get those letters, especially
yours and now when I have started
to get mail I'll be looking forward for
some right along. did not receive any
mail from Minneapolis, but I know
there's some from there on the road
some place. No, did not receive the
money you sent, so that is somewhere
on the road also. You see all our mail
in the states is sent on different boats
and some Of these are fast and others
slow, so that makes lot of difference.
Some of the boys received mail yester-
day that was written in July and the
first parts Of August, and we had only
been here about two weeks when some
of them received some mail that was
written about around the 18th of Au-
gust, so you can see what a difference
there can be. So I'm sure your letter
is somewhere on it's way and I'll get it
before long. All the mail received
was addressed to Camp Mills and SO it
was transferred to me. I number all
my letters so you can tell which ones
you are getting. You may receive for
instance, this one before you get No. g.,
it all depends on the transportation of
them. -
I want to thank you very much ''dad"
for sending the money. I hated to ask
for it, but some day if I get back will
make it up. I'm sure the letter it is in
will reach me before long. We left
Camp Mills before the Goth of August,
so l was on the blue water about the
time Ruthie wrote Have been on this
side of the pond pretty near a month
now, and like it a lot better than
thought we would.
l am Corporal of the guard today SO
l find plenty time to write. All l do
when I'm on guard is to post relief
and that only takes about fifteen min
utes every two hours. 1 get off guard
at E p. M, tonight and tomorrow is
Sunday so I'll have all that day off al
so. I'm glad you have heard from Her.

time now.
That's too bad Arthur died but he's
through suffering from that terrible
disease which there was no cure for.
Poor Harold, I can see how hard he
will take it when he finds out that Ar
thur is gone. I'm glad to hear
that Roy was one OF his pall-bearers
Harold Olson will like that too, be-
cause you know that Harold and Roy
were as good pals as you possibly could
find. My only regret is that could not

to keep on pushing them back to where
they come from.

you. the different fronts that 1 have
been fighting on, but the one I am on
now. can't say anything about.
I have been on the Toul Front, Al
SAGE Lorraine front and the Chateau
Thierry front. I suppose you have read
in the papers about the big Chateau
Thierry drive. I was in it full blast.
We sure chased the life out of them
there.

they do as that will win the war.
I wrote a letter to Grandma today
am sure glad to hear that her health
is improving so rapidly. was pleased
to hear that Mike, Vivian finished
school; hope she makes good in High
School.

send my money home, because there
isn't any place at the front to spend
money, so will send it home to buy
War Savings Stamps with and Liber-
ty Bonds.

Oct. II, 1918.

oct. IL, 1918.
Dear Mother:
must write a few lines to let you
know I am still alive and feeling fine.
We were up at the front for few days
and 1 must say we had hot time I
saw some of my friends get killed, and
wounded. -Four other boys and help
ed carry a couple of them to the dress
ing station. The stock of my rifle was
shot off while we were going through
the woods to get the Boche. The ma
chine gun bullets and whiz bangs were
flying thickly around us. I say we
were lucky in getting lots to eat and
hot coffee even when we were right up
behind the front lines, so all that wor-
ried us were the big shells. We are not
allowed to tell much about what goes
on, so we, will have to wait with that.
We just signed the payroll today, so
expect we'll have some money to
spend.
I have only received one letter yet,
and that's the one you wrote Aug. 18th
and I answered that one I answered a
long time ago, which hope you have
received. ...,..p.
The weather is fair yet,, although
it gets kind Of chilly at night. When
you write tell the news, if there is any.

STOCK LETTER By R. Allyn Lewis

Outside of liquidation in a few stocks like Sinclair Oil and Studebaker and little selling of rails on the extremely bad statement shown for the first two months of the year the market is in a deadlock. The crowd behind Sumatra is tipping the stock for par and it is rumored that the dividend will be ad- vanced to per cent or that an extra dividend will be paid which will re- suit in s per cent to the holder Ana conda is again operating at normal. Only drawback is the epidemic of grippe affecting about per cent of force. There is every reason to ex- pect an average production of at least 2S,00t,000 pounds a month over the balance of the year.
 Earnings of |. S. Steer during the first quarter of 1918 are estimated by one steel expert to have been between s4o,000,000 and s42, 100000 after all de- auctions.
 However, depreciation charges may be smaller in the first quarter of 1918

 Only the officers and men who have had to endure the rigors of patrol work in the North Sea and the northern waters of the West Atlantic understand what a severe strain this is upon the endurance and constitution. Our fleet is usually sent to southern waters, with Guantanamo. Cuba, as a base, during the winter weather. Now. how ever, their patrol duties in European waters are subjecting them to the most severe exposure.
 Speaking on this subject, Thomas C. J. Peoples of our navy explained be- fore the house appropriations commit tee that the prospects of winters campaign in extremely cold waters necessitates unusual weight of cloth ing from the inner garments out. The special garments now being made for these forces include: Two hundred thousand windproof shirts, two hun- dred thousand windproof trousers. two hundred thousand blanket overshirts, 190,000 pairs of artctics, two hundred thousand pairs of mittens, l4 million suits of underclothing. 403,5 pairs of heavy wool cocks, and ten thousand pairs of high leather sea boots.

days later, when the answer came, she
danced gleefully up the stairs-not at
all mature" in manner, and locked the
door behind her while she read:
Dear Carol:
Indeed am very interested, and wish
you all the joy in the world. Tell Jim for
me how very much I think he is to be
congratulated. He seems fine fellow,
and I know you will be happy. It was a
surprise, I admit knew he was doing
the very devoted-but you have seemed
so young to me, always. I can't imagine
you too grown up for jokes, though you
do sound more "mature' in this letter
than you have before. Lark will be lone
1y, I am afraid.
II am very busy with my work, so you
will understand If my letters come less
frequently, won't you? And you will be
too busy with. your own happiness to
bother with an old professor any more
anyhow. I have enjoyed our friendship
very mucn.-more than you will ever
know,-and want once more to hope you
may be the happiest woman in the world.
You deserve to be.
Very sincerely your friend,
DAVID A. DUKE.
Carol lay down on the bed and
crushed the letter ecstatically between
her hands. Then she burst out laugh
ing. Then she cried little, nervously,
and laughed again. Then she smoothed
the letter affectionately, and curled up
on the bed with a pad Of paper and
her fathers fountain pen to answer the
letter.
NV Dear Mr.. Duke: However in the
world could you make such a. mistake.
I've been laughing ever since I got your
letter, but I'm vexed too. He's nice, ali
right; he's just fine but don't want him
And think how annoyed Lark would be ii
she could see it. am not engaged to
Jim Forrest,-nor to any one. It's Lark.
I certainly didn't say it was I, did I?
We're all so fond Of Jim that it really is

him one of us, and Lark grows more
deliriously joyful all the time But I!

Carol jumped up and caught up her
hat and rushed all the way downtown
to the postoffice to get that letter
started for Danville, Illinois, where the
Rev. Mr.. Duke was located. Her face
was so radiant, and her eyes were so
heavenly blue, and so sparkling bright
that people on the street turned to
