GETS ALETTER
 FROM '. C. CENN AT ABERDEEN
Former Teacher in Juneau High School Writes Con- cerning New Sur
 roundindgs.

Vernon c. Genn, teacher in the High School here last year is at tending the Ordnance Training School at the Aberdeen Proving Grounds, Maryland, according to a letter received by z. M. Bradford from MT Gem.
 MT. Gem says in his letter:
 'I was sent to the school for the training of officers on the 25th of August. Since that time 1 have been working very energetically. Our daily program is full every min ute from 5:45 in the morning until 12 at night. Our work consists of the study of the mechanism of guns and ammunition. Every. shipment of guns from the United States to Eur grounds before being sent across. So we have much to do that is very re- sponsible in nature. We expect to be sent across immediately when we have furnished the course.
 "We are developing rapidly in our knowledge of ballstics and will soon be able to outstrip the German in this branch as well as in others We have a gun here on the grounds that will shoot projectile over six ty miles. I cannot tell you of it's mechanism but it is a reality.
 Mrs. Genn is planning on coming East in about month and will re- main until I am sent across. Both of us often write and more often think of the pleasant year we spent in Juneau. I am quite sure that wherever one travels one will find no more hospitable body of people than the people of Juneau. Our de- sire is to be able to visit again the place we hold so much in our mem ory. Tell all our friends that we shall enjoy hearing from them and that I will write as soon as I am relieved from the heavy work of my schedule"

PERSH|NC TO
 CHURCHES ON
 BEHALF OF ARMY
Text of His Reply Received Here and Given to The Empire for Pulp
 liCatiOn.

The response of Gen. Pershing he message of the Federated Col il of the Churches of America, s follows:
 'In the name of the Ameri- can Army in France, as well as in my own name, I thank you for your kind and stimu- lating message.
 We dare not claim that, as an army, we have yet achieved that high standard of manhood and conduct upon which the largest human effectiveness should be built; but the ideal of the nation and of the churches is constantly before us. With sincereity and firm purpose we set our faces to- ward the goal After all, it is a common fight-yours there and ours here. What is neces- sary for the manhood of the soldier is necessary for the manhood of the citizen.
 "The powerful resources of the Nation which have been placed ungrudgingly at the dis posal of the army are indis- epensible for the accomplish ment of our duty. But we know that mere wealth of ma terial resources, or even of technical skill will not suffice. The invisible and unconquer- able force let loose by the prayers and hopes and ideals of Christian America, of which you are representative, is in- calculable. It furnishes the soul and motive for the mili- tary body and it's operations. It steadies us to resist man. fully those temptations which assail us in the extraordinary life in which we find our selves.
 "Your message of loyalty to us draws this reciprocal mes- sage of loyalty to you. We of the army think with grati- tude and emotion of the un- Tagging service and wonder full trust in us of the churches at home. May we prove our selves worthy of it."
 (Signed)
 JOHN J. PERSHING."
