I was glad to find the boy in suca

ready and expecting to go at an?
time. I wanted to cheer him up and
reassure him that was interested
in him and willing to do anything tha:
7 could that he wanted, though tina:
was not necessary because he knew
it already. I have no fear about his
doing his duty and making a good
soldier, and I know that there Will be
no murmuring or complaining on his
part. and I believe that is true of all
our boys. They are anxious to move,
the nonotony of one camp becomes
tiresome and the boys get restless,
and while I am glad that our boys
have been close home while they have
been in training, and would like for
them to remain, still that is selfish
view, and I believe that it would be
better for them all if they were moved,
even if it were only from one camp to
another, until they are ready to go

and had arranged to take the trip
through the country with Walter
Richardson, but he phoned late on
Saturday evening that it would not
be convenient for him to go, and l
went on the train. After it turned
so cold and rained I was glad that he
could not make the trip, because those
who were there in cars had a time
getting back, so Mr.. John Danielson
tells me, and he made the trip in his
Ford. The roads are none of the best
at any time, and after such rain
they must have been bad indeed.
