prov thru the Dutch. They could
hardly catch up with the Dutch. They
sure do fear the Americans. Can you
blame him?
We are all billeted in one town
now Jour regiment) and it is sure
some town-a large one and it has
some fine buildings in it. There is
one chateau that is magnificent. l
never saw such a pretty place. And
there is also large hospital here sure
is some building. / wish we were
allowed to take pictures. sure would
like to have pictures of some of these
places. You can tell just about where
we are by the papers. l expect they
tell just exactly where we are. l
can tell and show you on the map
when get there. | wish it could be
Christmas but l am afraid we can't
get there by then, but just to know
that this bloody struggle is over is
whole lot.
l saw Linzy Martin day before yes
terday and he pulled thru without a
scratch, and l saw Cousin Sidney; he
is also o. X. Harold Sutton is o. X.
also, but he had some close calls tho
We will sure paint that town red
when we get home. He is always talk
ing about dancing and we sure will
dance then, won't we? We haven't
received any pay for four months. 1
hope we get paid soon for l think we
will soon be where we can buy few
things that we can bring home. This
town we are in now was the German
grand headquarters. The kaiser and
crown prince staid here for 81
months. The crown prince sure did
have some keen place.
am still in the signal work and
am working with switchboards at
regimental headquarters, operating
telephone switchboard. l like the
work fine and it is pleasant work since
the cans quit falling around, but they
made it rather uncomfortable at
times.

SAYS LEAGUE OF NATIONS is
MOST IMPORTANT PHASE
(By the Associated Press)

London, Dec. 6-Arthur ]. Bal
four, secretary of state for foreign
affairs, in outlining his views on the
peace conference today told the As
ISOLATED Press that he thought the
meeting in Paris this month would
be merely informal and preliminary
to the conference of the associated
governments at the first of the year,
which would formulate all the i'm
portant terms of peace agreements.
This conference, he added, would be
the most important and the longest
of the series. When it was finished
the enemy countries would be called
in to ratify the conclusion reached.
Mr.. Balfour said the British gov
eminent had not yet made any fixed
arrangements for President Wilson
to visit England, as it would be pre-
mature to do so until more was
known regarding the presidents own
plans. Great Britain would be guided
solely by his wishes
World League Most Important
The foreign secretary said he be-
lieved the question of a league of
nations was the most important work
imposed on the conference. "The
prominence Mr.. Wilson has given the

ARMISTICE SIGNED ON
WEDDING ANNIVERSARY
Liberal Boy Writes of Battle at Close
of War.-Had Close Call
Sutton o. K.

Mrs. ROBBERY Rarshall of the Tay-
lor Drug Store is in receipt of letter
from her husband who has been in
the trenches in France for some time.
The letter was written after the sign
ing of the armistice, the signing of
which took place on the first wedding
anniversary of he and Mrs. Marshall.
He writes as follows:
France, Nov. 10, 1918.
Dear Wife:
l never felt better in my life and
l think l am getting fatter all the
time. You won't know me when l
get home and / know that won't be
so very long now as the war is fin
ished. 1t sure seems funny not to
hear any big guns booming, but is
sure sounds good. / hope l never
hear another one. We are having
some pretty nice weather now, only
pretty chilly.
What do you think of the 18th of
November by now. Sure some day to
celebrate, isn't it? Just one year
since we were married. Well l hope
peace is signed up on the goth then
things will be going right. Well
pulled thru another drive o. X. and
hope l pull home o. X. soon.
never want to go thru another thing
like we went thru on this last drive.
1t sure was what fellow would call
"hell' and not eXaggerate it one bit.
The night before we went over HAL
lowe'en) we moved up into the woods
and dug little holes in the ground just
large enough for two of us to lie in
on our sides and it was about 2 or
2 y feet deep. Not very pleasant
place to sleep in but the best we
could do under the circumstances,
and it was lots better than lying out
on the ground, because that protects
a fellow from flying shrapnel unless
it breaks over head. Well, about 10
O'Clock Halloween night our bonn
bardment started and | don't see how
in the world anyone could live thru
it for it was sure the most terrific
thing l ever heard, and heard few

"a league of nations is vital neces-
sity if this war is to produce all the
good we expect to come out of it. The
United States would have to bear a
large share in the work it involves.
1t should be something more than a
mere instrument to prevent war. The
world is more complicated than we
are inclined to think. 1t would be
folly to imagine it possible to con-
stitute a world with states endowed
with equal powers and rights.
"But wish to say emphatically, in
my opinion to devise in concert work
able machinery for them is one of the
highest functions the conference can

Referring to President Wilson'S

Democracy" Mr.. Balfour said:

made safe for democracy merely by
multiplying the number of democratic

at is hard to define what Russia is

Bolshevists government, which is the
main de facto government in central
European Russia. But there are
many other de facto governments.
81 think Russia's status will be

cannot conceive that the conference
will regard any Russian government
