YOU believe it-after such Il hike? A
good supper, though, 50 we carried our
mess kits, full back to our nice little
room-and ate 1t.
We sat up and talked until 1870 that
night. Every once and a while some of
the boys would leave the room and
later come rushing back with some
Boche's helmet or boot that he had
picked up on the outside The next
morning we were walking around and
happened to see large stone with this
inscription OH it: 1851 Hindenburg-
1876 We remodeled this to suit the
occasion by drawing red streak across
the . 1851" another across the - Hin
denburg.,. and still another across the
1!15," and painted the word Per-
sbing' over Hindenburg,. and made
the 1915" into Ids. How 1t that
for the Sanmies? We also found piles
upon piles of supplies left by the Ger
mans in their hasty pdrti (retreat).
In the little villages we passed on
our way to this city we saw quite a
number of wire cages that the enemy
bad used for prisoners. Another funny
thing Is that every French sign had
been painted over and nothing but Ger
man signs We're to~be seen. We finally
found a can of black paint. and six Of
lny men began to rename the streets
We daubed paint over every German
name and marked the streets to suit
ourselves. Each one of us named a
street for our home town. also
"dauhed" one Rue de Shreveport and
another Rae de IiUidn.
To-day | ate my dinner at table
where three German prisoners were
seated. We Americans sitting by re-
marked how well they were being treat
cd. as compared to how our boys Jared
after being taken as prisoners. We
have six war prisoners in our ward.
Five are Italian and one English. They
seem to- have been badly treated while
i'll Germany.
We are having great time here
nothing to do but eat and sleep, and
plenty Of it. We are going to have a
large Thanksgiving Day here.
As my regiment is now in Germany,
am afraid will not get to go back to
it. 1t may mean that l will get to
come home ahead of the other boys
Your affectionate son,
WILLIAM.

Terrace Rolling Lands.

l.. s. L. Press Bulletin.l
Throughout many parts of Louisiana
the hill and rolling lands are subject to
erosion from the heavy winter rains.
An effective way to prevent this erosion
Is to build terraces, preferably not
less than IL feet wide, that have been
carefully laid out with good farm
level. 1t is much easier to save lands
from washing away by means Of ter
racing than it is to attempt to build
up washed and quilted fields.
