both by individual and community eff
fort. and we wish to cooperate with
you and any organization in your city

as there Is nothing to buy, although
we would feel better with honey in
our pockets. l nave bee talking
to some British soldiers and have
just realized what an easy good time
is SO much stricter n their wages
so much lower than ours. We get
along with them fine and often sit
around the fire at the inns talking
with them. The Y. NJ. c. A.. auc

Food is Scarce.
Mr.. Coutts goes on to say thai the
Americans had a little difficulty in
familiarizing themselves with the
English money system. He then
writes:
high-priced. but some things are
cheap. We can get a cup of cocoa
and some sweet biscuits for 2 cents.
An Englishman here at one inn told
me eggs were IA cents each and but
ter was nearly a dollar a pound. They
can hardly get sugar. n cannot get
raisins and currants at all. The mar
garine here is much better than the
American. We couldn't tell it from
butter"
The letter describes some of tlsc
scenery which Mr.. Coutts has observ-
ed. and he also say the cockney dia-
lect of the native Londoners amuscs
the Americans much, 'but I can UNI
derstand them much better than I
can the people of the American

passed through several stations ana

running electric trucks and handling
hundredweights as easily as a man.
They were all pretty and rosy

Coutts says. to enjoy their work and
didn't mind the labor at all. the
Americans thought it a disgrace for
them to work and damned the Eng
lishmen for letting them do it.
This letter closes as follows:
What Some Things Cost.
II really like England fine, but
some of the fellows swear at it every
time they mention it. We will soon
go to the training camp in France.
We haven't gon to IN town vet and
