Well, / haven't met any of the
Greene county boys yet. Sure would
like to see Clarence or most any Of
the boys from around home. Guess
the young men are getting little
scarce back there, but we will be
back some time soon, as the war won't
last forever. Guess this last draft
is getting some Of the older men as
well as the younger ones.
Well, l bet you and the Conway
girls have some time rooming to-
gether. Tell them l said hello.
Say, who is teaching at Mt. Pleas

FLU" PREVENTIVEs.

Miss Roby Fitzgerald, superintend-
ent of the grammar school, is endeav-
oring in every way possible to keep
down infection from influenza among
the children. She has written the
following catchy and helpful little
verse, which the children are mem
orizing:
If the influenza you would fight,
These rules you keep and have no
fright,
At morning, noon and night be sure
Your lungs keep filled with air that's
pure.
Dodge a cough, or a sneeze, when
in any place,
Don't you cough, or sneeze in an
others face.
If you chance to meet one with a
cold,
Dodge their breath as you would an
arrow bold.
Keep clean your hands, your mouth,
your nose,
For there the influenza goes.

the boys will discover later When the outside world

London. March "a number Of
successful raids were carried out by
us on different parts of the 'front.'"
says the war office report
Australian troops entered German
trenches near Warneton and after
killing at least fifty of the enemy and
destroying several dugouts. brought
back eleven prisoners and ammuni-
ton. Other successful raids were car
ried out by Australian troops in the
neighborhood of Gepaard cas-. Of Mes
sines and south of Hollenbeke Pris-
oners were taken by us in each case
and another machine gun was captur-
ed.
North Middlesex troops raided the
enenv's position north of Passchen-
daele and captured several pris cssssss.
Our casualties in these raids were
light. Our troops also entered the
German lines at several other points,
in each case reaching the detectives,
but without securing prisoners, as the
enemy's sarrisons had withdrawn.
"a raid attempted by the enemy
south of ST. Quentin was repulsed,
leaving a few prisoners in our
hands"
The sarie night a large party of
Germans led by nine officers "raided"
