Dear Mother and all:
Just FEW lines tonight to
let you know that l have been pro-
moted again. am now q first Ser
geant, clear to the top as far as
can get Next training camp l am
booked to 60. They wanted me to
60 this time but 1 don't care much
about going this summer. I, Our
first Sergeant went and one other
fellow. They went to Camp Pike
at Little Rock, Ark. l want to
come home and if l went l couldn't
come. The next school will be in
the fall. There has been some talk
of sending some of us to Ft. Logan.
I sure would like to 60 up there this
summer but 1 don't suppose I'd
have such good luck.
l don't have to drill anymore,
most all officers work, kind of a
go-between the men and the COM
manding officer. / have to. take
care of the guard detail, make out
service records and general COM
pany paper work.
The wind has been blowing a
fright here today and this Kansas
dirt sure Sits thru things.
We lose our men Friday and don't
& anymore for about ten days.

wr.te about only I tho't you'd be
glad to hear about my raise Love

WAR NEWS SUMMARY


The past week has been compara-
lively quiet on the western front.
the enemy having made no attacks
in force, such activity as has been
manifested being in the nature OF
advance line skirmishes or raids III
which the Allies have Jared best
The French troops have gained
some ground south of Amiens and
have strengthened their positions
in the region of Arras. The Amerl-
cans have taken over some OF the
more important sectors and have
figured conspicuOusly in the war
news of the week. American airmen
have been especially active and in
numerous feats have shown not
only their daring but their skill
and resource AS the war progress
ses aeroplanes continue to play
more important part in the pro
ceedings and battles above the
clouds are becoming not only more
frequent but more victorious for
the Allied arms.
Press dispatches from day to day
indicate that American troops are
pouring into France at a rapid rate
and, that the force already on the
field is of considerable proportions.
Reports of famine conditions in
Germany and Austria continue to
come to the front and while many
of these reports cannot be verified
it would appear that in large mea-
sure they may be depended upon.
Prague, the capitol of Bohemia
in Austria, has been placed under
martial law by the Austrian gov
crn1nent as result OF riots UNI
friendly to the cause OF the Central
powers.
The past week has seen remark
able increase in the number OF
ships turned out by the shipbuild-
ing board and even the most con-
tirmed pessimist will have to ad-
nit that America appears at last
to have gotten into the war with
both feet, determined to kick the
Kaiser out.
Subscriptions to the Red Cross
are coming in like a food the
country over and there is every
that the amount will be
by a large margin.
