feel as though / was tackling one
of the hardest jobs have undertaken
in trying to thank the Paw Paw
people for their kindness in sending
the tobacco. 1t was a big surprise
and treat to all of us, and hope that
you can help in some way in thank
J ing them all. Tobacco is nearly as
important as our "Chow" to us and
every one considers himself lucky
when he gets it from home. Have to
fight now to keep the bunch away
from my own packages, they seem to
think that everything get is as
much theirs as mine since we received
the tobacco
! am sorry that l can't give you
any details of our life over here, but
she various articles / have seen in
different magazines and papers dis
cribes it very well.
It is a beautiful country over here.
and you can't blame the French for
fighting the way they are, their
country is worth it and any one
would feel like fighting after they
had seen what the "Bosche" left be-
hind. The people are very friendly
to us and the "Poilus" are the best of
pals and will break their necks to do
anything for us. The hardest part
Of all is trying to understand each
other, it didn't take us very long to
learn how to ask each other for
tobacco or light, but the rest comes
hard.
The folks send the home papers,
and / watch for them every time
mail comes. There is a fellow in the
company whose home is in Decatur
and we both know several of those
who have been drafted. / wish 1
could see some one from home.
/ feel ashamed that have not writ
ten before but several things have
come up and / really couldn't get
time. Guess l will have to quit now
as it is getting dark. Please thank
all the folks whose names were in Che
packages and let them know that it
hit every man exactly in the right
place.

You spoke about money sending.
An international Money Order is
perfectly safe in sending. / have
made several mistakes in this letter
as English is not as easy for me as
it used to be.
Well, now l have written quite a
letter, which / hope you will receive.
Oh, Inez, what it would mean for me
to have a piece of every one of my
friends in America in our little
home. When | get the little house
paid for. l will have to get water
brought up from the street below US.
/ have to carry water a long ways
two buckets at time, and it nearly
kills me. My breast is bad after
every water carrying; but in times
of war there is always a drought.
Nothing in nature thrives when men
are suffering. How little it would
mean for all the wealthy Gliddenburg-
ers to give me water, and what a
blessing it would be to themselves.
They don't know what it means to
pull through hard places.
Well now | guess you will think
am writing too much this time. Give
my love to our stepmother, to Alva
and family and to George and family
if you write to them. Sievert is in
Northern Norway.

c. TO his mother, Mrs. w. X. Miller.
Harry joined the National Guard at
Buffalo, n. Y. two years ago, and
served with the soldiers on the border
in Mexico. He was transferred to
the Federal army al the beginning of
the war.
Another short letter. We are still
having winter, we had a regular biz
zard week age and there has been
a foot of snow on the ground ever
since. You should see few thousand
soldiers out in a big field plodding
through the snow in their drills, all
wearing overcoats.
We keep a fire in the tent day and
night, which is the only thing that
keeps us comfortable. It. is trying
to snow right now, it being gray and
dull outside.
The electric lights went out this
morning, leaving the tents dark "a
caves. Being an old campaigner,
had remedy for that. We went out
and got next to a nice big new win
dow. This | put in the tent over the
door. So it is like a regular home.
I've built a table and writing desk
and raised the tent so that the thirty
inch sides are five feet two.
We went five of us in this tent.
over to the list, camp and sawed
down a black oak tree and was Just
getting away with the log when the
whole regiment came down after us.
Several first sergeants and all. We
had to leave it of course and also
had to put up some clever alibies to
get away with our lives and liberty.
Wood is thought more of than gold
these cold days. That's why we go
to all extremes to get it. The govern
ment brought 10000 of us down here
with our tents and gave a stove to
each tent. But it overlooked the little
item of fuel But they can't COOP
soldier.
| received that package from Mrs.
Finch.lt had seal on it "Do not
open until Xmas" but we can't allow
packages laying around, so | opened
it. | wore the ,sox to bed last night,
being just what l needed. Now |
need knitted skull cap and a pair Of
wristlets, also pair of mittens.
That's all this time. Oh, yes; do I
get some cookies and cakes? Send
them parcels post.
| wrote Estella last night in Kazoo,
as she has written me a few lines be-
fore. Our pay is being held up this
month, as the payrolls are all balled
up on account of the allotments which
the boys have made. There is 81 200,
900 to be taken out of our pay in this
camp for Liberty Bonds, and S16O,
100000 in insurance, the pay for
which must also come out of our pay.
Then the allotmerts which everyone
with dependents must make.
How are the conscripts at Battle
Creek taking the situation? Are
they getting any clothing? We have
our heavy underwear, and they issued
us a heavy o. ID. cotton comforter
last week. 1t was welcome to, be-
lieve me. A regular heavy quilt.
I've just had to make a box for the
cooks, to put salt, pepper and pap
rika in, then l put big cardboard
around the stovepipe to throw the
heat down around the tent.
We are getting extraordinarily
feed nowadays. The best we've had
yet in the army. The kitchen having
been reorganized, new mess-sergeants
and new cooks, except the one / broke
in on the border, he is still on the Job.

RUSSIAN REGENERATION

Russian regeneration is from Lenine and Trotky and their forces loot and lunacy that we know after of their socialism. At time in the and they might have used it constructively but they chose to be slaves of their passions they had been slaves to the desposm of autocracy slaves their desires and uncontrolled greed.
 They stole, they murdered they established con- fusion worse confounded and they destroyed any chance of socialism being practically tried at any time and in any country for hundred years to come They tried their harbaned theories out and they only arrived at consumaton of the prophecies of the worlds best thinkers in establishing the autocracy of modern Jimes far more and exacting arrogant than that of Prussia for Prussas tyranny at least pate nal while that Of Russia under Trotsky was the full and he did.
 The leaders sold bleeding Russia for golden pot tage to Germany but reckoned without those who had but recently thrown off the shackles another despo and So all is not lost The reign reason is returning With the approval of the PanSlavocs by the civilized aaticns O. the world We done with codding of nurderers and thieves and will lend strength arms ana finances that great Russia.

THE FOURTH LIBERTY LOAN

The campaign for the Fourth Liberty Loan will begin shortly and it behooves us to prepare for it, as the result of the loan viii 0e watched with keen interest in Europe; not only by our associates in the war against the Teutonic pow CTS, but by our enemies themselves It will be regarded by them as measure of the American peoples support of the war The Germans know full well the tremendous weight and sig nlflcance of popular support of the war, of the people at home backing up the boys in the field AS the loan succeeds, our enemies will experi- ence sorrow; as it falls short they will rejoice Every dollar subscribed will help and encourage the American soldiers and depress our enemies and thus shortens the war. In other words the loan will be 3 test of the loyalty and willingness of the people of the country to make sacrifices compared with the willingness of our soldiers to do their part. There must be and will be no failure by the people to measure up to the cour- age and devotion of our boys over there. Many of then, have already given up their lives for the cause; shall we at home withhold our money Shall We spare our dollars while they spare not their lives? Let us remember that one question from the silent lips of the dead shall be- What have you given The answer must be given with our dollars.

Another source of labor supply that the de- partment of labor at Washington eems to be overlooking to large extent, is the thousands who are working at occupations which could either be filled by women, girls, old men and boys. It would seem much more imI ortant for instance that ships be built speedily for our troops than that thousands through out the country be employed in pool rooms fruit stands, barber shops, clerks in stores, etc., .etc. Let men shave themselves or grow whskers There are thousands of men throughout the country who should eithr be in the military service or working at some war-essential work To over look this source of labor supply is a mistake that may prove costly to the country.

NOTHING NEW.

For nearly an hour and a half last night Delegate Sulzer spoke to a good sized audience. During that time he said whole lot that may have been news to some new corners in the ter ritory; but to us and those who have been in the country the last three years for instance, we regret to say-speaking for ourself, we wasted that hour and half; for we knew as much. However, to partly repay us for our lost time, we have the satisfaction of knowing that the Delegate told the truth; the whole truth and nothing but the truth and that everybody will agree with us.

He pointed out that the "great American navy should stop that little trawler, making or fly ten or twelve knots an hour from working: havoc among our fishing fleet" At the time, the crit icism was considered untimely, howe' yer, the world is witness to the fact that the na wy busted itself at once with the result that we ave heard of no more operations.

T|N-CAN BAND MET
 WITH COOL RECEPTION

Dear Mir. Editor; Did you know that the "tin-can band" met with a brand new reception last evening? Yes. they did. Instead of finding a happy bridegroom willing and anxious to treat them in appreciation of their noisy attention. an irate one appeared among them and with cuffs, kicks and slaps chased them hence without even giving them a nickel to soften the blows. Let us hope the poor kiddies find a regular kind of bridegroom next time. so they may soon forget their unhappy experience with this one. The writer witnessed the entire incident, and will make 1t up to the "tin-can band" if possible.
