Lynn B. Gillespie, one of Uncle
SANS boys, writes his mother, Mrs.
Jennie Gillespie Of this town, Of
some of his soldering experiences.
Oct 10th, 1915.
Somewhere in France.
Dearest Mother:-
Altho' l am on duty in the Infrm-
airy l have few moments to spare
and will take the opportunity OF
writing my weekly letter. Every
thing is going along fine with me
and l like the work in the Medical
Department very much. OF course
our real work will not commence
until we strike the firing line, which
may be any old time now. We had
a little practice hike one day this
past week with full pack" said
hike being about Z miles, and they
even went so far as to take every
thing along in the way of supplies,
just to see how smoothly things
would move when we do actually
chit it up, for the front.
Am feeling fine and taking life as
it comes, day by day. We are all
very much pleased at the success of
the Allies the past few weeks and
would like to see the Kaiser give in
to the inevitable, but at the same
time we all want to see little action
before the thing ends. The Sergeant
in charge of the Battalion to which
I'm assigned, is jolly fat old chap,
very much like DR.. Housekeeper in
come ways, and he keeps you laugh
ng from morning until night. All
# the fellows call him dad" and
hat tells the whole tale for he is
lust like father in the way he looks
after your personal welfare. He
,alls me .Sun Down" as the nearest
thing to Rising Sun and I'm sure
glad to be under his care and SUPER
vision.
The weather is beginning to feel
little like winter, for we have had
several heavy frosts already, and
that is only a foretaste of what we
may expect in the months to come.
like the still cold evenings and
mornings, but what / don't like is
the ever-present rain and mist which
falls to our lot so frequently here.
there must be some delay in the
mail, for I've not received any mail
from you for nearly two weeks but
it will be none the less welcome
when it does arrive.
I can hardly realize that November
is nearly here, for time sure does fly
in the army. Christmas will be here
and gone before we know it.
Wouldn't it be glorious Christmas
present for the world at large IL
peace were to be declared on or,
about that time or even sooner2
Well, Mother dear must close for
this time. Love and best wishes to
all. Your son,
Pvt. LYNN B. GILLESPIE.

Too Good to Not Publish.

Says the Philadelphia Record in a
recent editorial.
The Philadelphia Press seems to
be alone in its view that the new
Secretary of the Treasury does not
size up to the job. It's only argu
ment is that Mr. Glass, being coun-
try editor, has had no training in
large finance. The big city editor
who does not know that the country
editor has more trouble with finan
cling his job than any other part OF
it. needs personal contact to enlight-
en- him. Any man who can success
fully run a country newspaper is At
for most any big job. Secretary OF
the Navy Daniels was not the first
man to prove that. and it is safe to
say that Secretary Glass will not
be the last. Numerous country
editors help much in running the
country without holding any other
job.
