Two Villas County Boys Meet

A letter from Fred Sailer who
has arrived in France, tells of a
peculiar instance shortly after
his arrival. Spied a fellow in
kh aki who had some resemblance
to Villas county fellow comrade,
and investigation showed it to
be Clifford Punches. Both were
from different companies but
from the same strip of soil in
Villas county. Letters from both
say that the game as being
played is worth the playing.

An Appreciation.

At the solicitation of my
friends, l had partly promised to
become candidate for the office
of county Judge, but owing to
protracted illness in my family,
my plans for the future are very
indefinite, and | feel that | should
make room for some other as
pirant.
However, fully appreciate the
pledges OF support which have
been given by my many friends
and at some future time hope to
be OF service to them.
Very Respectfully,
