Mother I heard that Tommle and
George are at Greenville now. Is 1T

me hear from them and for them to
let me know how they like the army.
I have been to a lot of places IN
France and saw a lot of pretty plac-
es here but l haven't seen any place
that looks like America. 1t is the
sweetest place on earth and when the
war is over l am coming back home
and l am going to stay there too, be-
lieve me. There are lot of good
looking girls over here but the AM
orleans do look the best. l will take
the American girls for mine. There
is as much difference between the

Mail Goes Astray.
Hardys.

The following notice has been
received by the local postoffice de-
partmenL from headquarters at
ashington and it explains why
great number of packages and let
ters written to soldiers is returned
10 the senders:
''The chief cause of the monde
livery of mail intended for soldiers
in the military camps in the United
States is insufficiency of address.
'Postmasters are, therefore, en-
Joined to notify the relatives and
friends of soldiers that unless mail
is addressed to company and regi-
ment or other distinctive organiza-
tion, delays in delivery or failure to
deliver may result, and to urge upon
patrons the necessity for placing
correct and complete addresses and
return cards upon all classes of mail
intended for soldiers, particularly
at this time when many new men
are being inducted into the service
and the old units are being trans
ferred to different camps"

A Group of Interesting letters From Our
Soldier Boys.

Tabernacle Baptist church tomorrow
evening to one of Willie's B. Y. P.
U.Esocials and am expecting a huge
ti.ne.
Mesher, 1, wish you could have
beer here this afternoon to see the
soldiers. Several thousands of them
are going to leave for dear old
Fra-fce tomorrow, I think, and they
had "a grand review. 1t was one of
thesnost inspiring sights l ever wit
Messed, with banners flying and the
band playing. They marched by again
and again with perfect swing and
step. The tramp Of their feet and the
rattle of their accoutrements seemed
to asis to make as sweet music as !
ever heard.
Al! If the Kaiser could only see
such sights as l have just told you OF,
and many others just like it that are
taking place in our camps all over
this great land of ours, it looks like
he would throw up his hands in de-
spair and give up the hellish task he
has set out to perform.
Our boys are going over fai now
and they are going to keep on going
until they knock the Kaiser AID his
CLIQUE "sky high" They are going
over, too, with as fine training and
as fine spirits as ever an army went
forth to war.
Oh, Mother! l think the American
boys ought to be thankful to Sod
that they are living in the present
age, that they have an opportunity
to fight for such a righteous cause
and for such a country as ours.
will be glad for the time to come
when5I too, can go over there.
If nothing prevents I am coming
home Saturday, the 25th.
Twill close for this time. With love
to you all and to everybody who is
interested enough to ask about me.

American girls and the French girls
as there is between day and night
and when the war is over / am COM
ing back to see my little American
girl. I don't think it will be long be-
fore the war will be over.
You asked me in your last letter
if I got sea-sick. I sure did and l
was sick for two days and then I got
all right again. 1t was good trip
for me but I like the railroad best.
jamie said that my horse was pref
ty now and 1 told her if I did not get
back the horse was hers and if you
don't need the buggy sell it for when
I get back l am going to get an au-
to to enjoy life. Mother tell jamie
know she is having hard time
about going to church now but when
I get back she and / will enjoy life
together.
Mother, you said that you pray
for your child who is away to come
back home so that you all would be
happy one more time and if the Lord
is with me I am coming back. Then
we will all be happy together. Give
Grandpa my love and tell him to
write for l think of him every day.
Mother, be sure and can some
peaches for me. l am not there to
eat them off the tree but if you can
them they will keep till I come back
and it will make US all happy to sit
down and enjoy thena 1t will make
us all think of old times, won't it?
How is Johnnie and the baby May,
too? How are little Carrie and Ollie?
1t looks like they would write one or
two lines to let me hear from them
for I do love to get mail from home.
NV address is this: American Expedi-
tionary Forces, France.
Give Uncle Bud my love and tell
Leona and Lena 1 say it looks like
they might write to their old cousin
in France.

MRS. Hugh Harrison Receives
Letter From Her Son In
France.
MY Dear Mother:
July 7, 1918,
10th Aero Squadron,

My Dear Mother:
You should have witnessed our
fourth of July celebration over here.
Pm sure it would have filled you
with great joy. l witnessed the great
est aeroplane formation flight I have
ever seen. They were all British ma
chimes flown by Royal Flying Corps
pilots, and they came over from one
of their neighboring aviation fields,
all flying in battle formation. The
sky was just literally black, and it
was just wonderful the way they
kept together in all of their stunts
At Certain signals given by the COM
manders they would all do exactly
the same, looping tail-pinnings and
vrilling French, pronounced veree),
and in fact there are very few
things that were ever done in an
aeroplane that they did not do. They
were flying the United States flag
in honor of the day on which we de-
clared our independence of England,
so you see there is the best of feel
ings between the British and US (or
u. S.. They flew low to the ground
and dropped a number of little silk
flags, the British war flags, for SOU
venirs.
In addition to the aerial exhibi-
ton we had an athletical meet later
on in the evening and the air-service
fellows came out ahead in nearly all
of the contests that we had.
l don't know whether you have
read about it or not, but the avia-
tion section of the signal corps no
longer belongs to the army but has
been changed to Air Service, and
now is distinct branch of its own.
There is just as much difference in
it as there is between the army and
navy. We will have different insig-
Mas and uniforms from the ones we
used to have so we are now in the
u. S. Air Service.
would write a longer letter,
Mother, but this is ali the writing
paper I have so will have to close.
Love to all.
Your devoted son.

Home Demonstration and Red
Cross Meeting at Red Hill

1t was a great pleasure on Thurs
day afternoon to accompany Miss
Patti Major on her trip to Red Hill
to attend her Demonstration Club.
1t was an additional pleasure to have
with US Mrs. Major of Pickens, Miss
Major being her only child and left
without a father when she was but
baby.
The meeting took place at the hos
pitable home of Mr.. and Mrs. Hamp
Smith near Red Hill church, their
daughter, Miss Sallie Smith being To-
cal chairman of the Red Cross auXil-
iary at Red Hill. A goodly number of
ladies and girls were in attendance,
and many happy greetings were ex-
changed between friends who had
not met in several months. While at
the meeting the ladies of the Mission
society and the Young Woman's Aux
iliary were busy preparing their re-
ports and making plans to complete
a successful year before the close OF
the associational year and the har-
vest home at Horns Creek August
% and 20.
Mrs. A. A. Woodson talked to the
ladies about the Red Cross work, and
Mrs. Mollie Holmes, president OF the
Red Hill Mission Society welcomed
the visitors, and Mrs. A. B. Young
also spoke some words of cheer.
Miss Major made a practical dem
onstration of tomato canning, and
the inspiration of her presence at
former meetings in the community
was evidenced by the fact that one
of the young ladies in the home had
cultivated a tomato patch and had
put up 1875 cans. 1t was 8 o'clock
when all the good-byes had been said
and night had fallen when the lights
of the village were seen in the dis
tance.
