Letter From Frisco

This sure is some different life
from working for the N. P. We
have to be on the job all the time.
Was on guard duty four hours but
will not have to do any more until
some time tomorrow, but we have
drill when not on guard. Put in
six hours of it today.
1t is pretty hard to handle a gun
correctly. The officers sure tell one
when he is wrong. They haven't
said word to me yet so | consider
| am pretty lucky.
have been transferred to diff
erent company and all we have to do
is drill and guard duty. Will have
to stay until about the third of Feb
ruary and will then be transferred
to the lower barracks and from
there | may have chance to go to
Harvard to study wireless.
They say it will be much easier
for us after we get out of deten-
tion camp. They just try to see if
fellow is any good and they will
lust about do it too.
There is Navy Y. M. C. A. here
and they have show of some kind
every night, so we can go if not on
guard. went last night for the
first time. There were two girls
and a man who sang and played for
about two hours. Those were the
first women | had seen for four
days.
We can get shore leave after our
81 days of quarantine and that will
help some. We are going to take
old Frisco in too.
The other night about 1000 of
the boys were over there. They
got in German" cafe where the
band wouldn't play the "Star
Spangled Banner So they took
possession of the place and forced
the band to play it and then made
the owner kiss the Flag three times
and sing the "Stars and Stripes. !"
That would have been some excite
/ ment to have been mixed up in
would have given a whole lot to
have been there.
Bill Boyd is on guard tonight
and will have to get up at $3.50
a. m.
, Well, how is railroading coming
at Kendrick. l believe | prefer
this to that job there, but l didn't
= notice that check this time.
. Must close and go to Chow" SC
, goodbye and good-luck. Ralph
Fenton.
:. P.S. And l won't come back
! until it's over, over there.

St. Claire Four

The second number of the lyceum
course will appear at the Grand
Theatre Saturday night (tomor-
row. This number promises to be
one of the best on the course and
will present instrumental and vocal
music and other popular forms of
entertainment.
There is one point that the man.
agement would like to impress upon
those holding season tickets. Ow-
ing to the fact that there was some
confusion, on account of duplicate
seat sales, it will be best to make
sure that the numbers on your sea-
son tickets correspond with the
seats reserved on the board. All
reserved seats are marked on the
board at the Red Cross Pharmacy
Don't wait until the night of the
entertainment to find out about
your seats, for if there is anything
wrong, it will be hard to straighter
it out then and confusion will surely
follow.

Letter From Dan Guy

This letter is being written under
extreme difficulties, as l am in an
isolated ward of the hospital now.
Have charge Of the spinal menin-
gets patients and it is sure miser-
able life. You know the disease is
very contagious and l have to wear
a gown, helmet and mask all of the
time on duty. The sleep get is
just maps. Can't sleep for thinking
l might be unlucky enough to get
the "bugs," as the germs are called.
The disease is fatal to 85 percent
of those contracting it and &C per-
cent of those who recover are Grip
pied mentally and physically.
You may know that l wasn't put
over here for punishment because
only those who are best trained in
the care of the sick are given
charge of it. Miller gave me quite
boost when l left the old ward.
He said before the nurses and the
bunch l was associated with: Guy,
you are to be one of the most re-
sponsible boys in your detachment.
There is honor in it and you can
rest assured that you have been
picked to take this place because
have confidence in your ability"
l don't like the work though, but
had to take it.
Roy Florance and l were out tc
dinner about week ago. Sure haC
fine time. Just like home.
Had card from Bob Jones the
other day. He sent a picture Of
the U. S. Steamship St. Louis.
Well l must ring off for tonight
Dan.

Red Cross Notes

Two more boxes Of supplies were
sent to headquarters last week from
the local branch Of the Red Cross.
These boxes Of hospital supplies
represent vast amount of work,
done by the ladies Of Kendrick and
also quite sum of money expended.
The evenings set aside for sewing
are we'll attended and the work is
progressing in very satisfactory
manner. Of course more money
will be needed soon to purchase ma
terials and it will soon be necessary
to devise ways and means to procure
the needed amount.
The Red Cross rooms at the Fra
ternal Temple are now equipped
with tele phone, the use of which
has been donated by the local phone
company.
The ladies of Cedar Creek ridge
have applied to the local chapter
for sewing that they could take
home with them. The material and
patterns are being prepared and
will be sent out soon. 1t is incOn'
venient for the ladies at distance
to attend the regular sewing meet
ings but it is thought very satisfac
tory results can be attained by hav
ing the sewing done at their homes
Following is a list of the supplies
contained in the two boxes:
2 dozen shoulder wraps, 2 dozer
bed socks, 20 dozen handkerchiefs
20 dozen substitute handkerchiefs
20 dozen table napkins, 8 dozel
tray covers, 6S comfort bags, a.
ambulance pillows, 2 pairs pillow
cases, 2 Turkish bath towels,
knitted wash cloths.

My Rows Awry

The hours | spent in sweater art,
Are as a string of purls-I sigh
To count them over every one

My rows aWry-my rows aWry.
Each hour | purl-each purl take
care,
To drop no stitch lest | be stung,
count, yea count unto the end,
And there sleeve is hung.

Of raveliug out at bitter loss,
| drop a purl, yet strive at last
to learn
To knit across, sweet art, to knii
across.
