This disease is highly contagious

toms OF swine plague or hog flu are
very much alike, and can be eradi-
Gated by vaccination as we have
cholera. Hog cholera is a thing Of
the past in some sections OF Hen.

it was most prevalent.
How did we eradicate these

Mrs. Julia Douglass,
Juno, Tenn.
Dearest Mother.
wrote you a letter just a few
days ago but things are SO different
tonight, | want to write you again.
| am glad to say that | am still
we'll and getting along all right.
Last night and tonight so far as
| know and believe. there are no
guns booming acroos the lines at
each other. The first time. per-
haps, in more than four years when
such has been the case. How
strange it seems. that we can lie
down and sleep right on the front
lines without any fear Of being at.
tackled by the enemy.
want to give you q brief descrip-
ton Of the past few days we have
spent. Maybe the censor will let it
pass. We were stationed q few
k,lometers behind the front lines in
reserve aud were expecting to be
moved up on the front in a few
days to take our place in the line
OF battle. On LAST Friday night we
heard that Germany had sent her
representative to consider the terms
Of armistice that had been proposed.
OF course we hoped and expected
that they would accept them. On
Saturday morning we got orders to
march--we didn't know where. We
rolled our packs and were soon
ready to 60. We marched about
three kilometers and stopped and
went into a trench and spent two
days and nights there. While there
we were under our artillery fire and
within range Of the enemy guns, yet
we we're practically safe, while in
the trenches. On yesterday morn
Ing we were ordered to the front.
There was calcely one who did not
have some degree OF fear at the
thought Of going up on a real ac-
tive front, yet there was not one
who hung back or showed any sign
Of sinking out and not wanting to
90. Some who were sick asked to
be allowed to 60 on with US. We
marched some little distance to the
place where we were to take our
line of combat formation. We had
not gone very far when the
German artillery turned loose on US.
At first the shells fell some distance

night when going forward we would
fall over them. 1t was so dark you
could not see your hand before you
raining and muddy. guess the
mud and water in shell holes were
about four inches deep and we
would have to either fall behind a
dead German or in these shell holes,
and boy, ! sure was muddy from
head to foot when they took me
out. But we sure gave them hell.
On the second day all my officers
were picked off and me being the
highest rank (Sergeant) was put in

over half of the company was there,
the rest were knocked of. | was

my company it will have new off,
GERS and men out and out. There
are only a few of the old boys left.
It was yesterday that | was lying in
my bed thinking of my company
and those three days in this drive.
To think that the men and all my
officers are gone and | am in the
hospital. | can hardly realize it.
1t seems as If it was only o dream.
Would like to tell you all about this
drive but it would take lots of paper
to tell you everything. | hope it
will not be long before | can have a
long talk with you and tell you of it
all.
| have something a little funny
to tell you. This really happened
to one of my men. One night after
we had had a nice little fight with
Fritz we were caught where there
we're a good many dead Germans
and my gun position was close to
them. One old boy brought his
blanket and was going to take a
nice little snooze. There was a
dead German lying close to the gun
position and he thought it was one
Of our men, so he put his blanket
over the German and slipped under
there with him and slept all night.
He did not know it until the next
morning when ! woke him up at
six o'clock, as that was the time we
we're to 90 over the top. You
should have seen now funny he
looked when he found out he had
slept all night with a dead German.
1t made me feel good when |
read your little paper saying that
my dear old friends Engines No.

CARDS and tell them not to worry
