Dear Mamma
Well am over here safe and
sound, as you probably already know
lost my fountain pen so l am writ
ing with an indelible pencil borrow
ed from friend here. l had lit
tie accident on the ship two days be-
fore we got in port. We were going
to have rifle inspection and we were
all cleaning our rifles. l went down
below to our deck to finish mine up
and sat down at a table a few feet
from Bob McElery, who was a mech
anic at Camp Cody, but got broken
to come. He was cleaning the lieut.
enant's As automatic and loaded it
up again to give to the lieutenant,
and the lieutenant came in and
started to talk to us, Nc went to put
the pistol in the holster and seeing
it was crooked, SNAPPED it,
They asked me if l was hit and
didn't think l was, although my legs
were a little numb. They called the
medical officer and he showed a hole
on the right side and another on the
left. 1t didn't hurt at all but see
ing is believing. 1t hasn't hurt at all
yet and must be healed up by now,
although ! am not walking around
yet. They gave me some kind of
sirum that caused it not to hurt and
guess it worked.
The worst thing about it is that /
may not get to my own company
when l get out. l am still hoping /
will. The lieutenant came in and
gave me a five spot just before l
went to the hospital. He is a prince
of fellow and always treated me
fine. l am in an American Red
Cross hospital now. l don't know
what address for you to write to, but
will find out. This is fine count

They were: Haywood Clark, aged
10, son Of J. E. Clark; Clifton Dor

and Alvin Cutsinger, aged IL, son
Of JEFF Cutsinger, miner.
Light-heartedly. skipping down the

the little lads, with childish habit,
all grabbed hold Of the innocent
looking wire dangling over the pave

Within an instant, the deadly wire,
charged with 1900 volts sa result Of
being crossed with the city light
wires, sent its destructive force
through the bodies Of the little
scholars. prostrating them on the
pavement lifeless.
The irony Of the fate Is revealed in

APPEAL FOR
FINANCIAL AID
CIVIC LEAGUE ASK FOR coNTRI-
BUTTONS TOWARD AN AM
BULANcE FOR WAR WORK.

The Civic League has given sever
al years Of self-sacrihcing labor IL
assisting the authorities to make
Hopkinsville a bigger, better, bus
Ter and more beautiful town, and for
the first time asks that other citi-
Gems make voluntary contribution to
an ambulance for the French front
which work has been undertaken
by the State Federation Of women's
Clubs. The club women Of the state
are giving freely Of their time and
means to every cause connected with
the war, but the women Of the Ken
lucky Federation want a concrete
expression Of their patriotism to
which they can point with pride.
To finance this each woman Is
asked to give 25 ceuts. The Hop
kinsville Civic League would like TO
do more than this and so asks other
patriotic and public spirited citizens
TO increase this to the sum of $4,000
which would be worthy gift to the
state work and to the nation. Sums
from % cents up will be gladly &C
copied No extended canvas will be
made but Mrs. H. M. Frankel as
chairman of the committee will re-
ceive contributions. 1t is hoped that
people win respond gladly to this
bit Of effort.
The state president, Mrs. Lowndes
has started the subscription with
$500 in honor Of her son whose
health will not allow him to 20.
So many are similarly situated or
have no sons 10 offer that the fund
should be greatly augmented with
contributions in place Of service.
There are plenty Of brave and will
ing men to risk their lives driving
these ambulances over the she'll
swept roads under the hail Of enemy
fire TO carry their comrades from the
trenches to the hospitals and dressing
stations. II seems that we should
give freely indeed to the convey
ances to be used in this work Of mer~
cy and necessity. We know that 95
per cent Of those who reach the care
Of the doctors and nurses recover,
and IL is up to these who cannot
go to send these messengers Of sal
walton.
Let us have hearty responses to this
call, help our own boys lover there"
and give the club women Of the state
and our local Civic organization
something to be proud of when the
roll is called Of generous and timely
givers.
