LEST WE FORGET TO
 DO OUR PART

"They say, who have come back from Over There that at night the troubled earth between the lines is carpeted with pain. They say that Death rides whis- ting in every wind, and that the very mists are charged with awful torment. They say that of all things spent and squan- dered there, young human life IS held least dear. It is not the pleasantest prospect for those of us who yet can feel upon our lips the pressure of our mothers goodbye kiss. But, please God, our love of life is not so prized as love of right In this. renascence of our country's valor, we who will edge the wedge of of it's hazards. For us the steel swept trench, the stiffening cold -weariness, hardships, worse. For you, for whom we go, you millions safe at home-what for you?
 we shall need food, We shall need care. We shall need clothes for our bodies and weap- ons for our hands. We shall need terribly and without failure supplies and equipment in a stream that is constant and never-ending. From you, who are our resource and reliance, who are the heart and hope of that humanity for which we smite and strive must come these things"

FROM LIEUTENANT COLDIRON

In France, August 22, 1918.
Dear Stell and Cleve:
Just line to say hello and let you
know that am o. K. Expect to leave
IN short time as my wound has
about healed. Haven't good use of
my arm yet but that will come in
due time.
Awfully hot yesterday and stayed
that way all night. 1t was the hot
test day I've seen in France It is
now 7:50 a. M, and bids fair to be
just as hot today. 1 get breakfast at
8:15. Am all ready and am using up
spare time writing.
Have received no mail from home
since coming here. Just a month ago
today I came. did get a picture of
Rose and Max mailed June 24th, but
no letter with it. 1t certainly is a
nice picture and was glad to get it.
Hope you all are well and enjoying
yourselves. Suppose it is pretty hot
there now. No news so guess I'll stop.
Remember me to the children and
friends.
With best wishes, remain,
Jesse Co1diron

To Everybody:
Please supply any names that have
been omitted correct any mistakes
and give US the address of those
who addresses are not known to us
so that by the next time this is print
ed it may be nearly correct.
1t has been my wish to get COM
plete list of names with the address
80 OF each boy that has gone from
here and also of those whose homes
and people are here but there Is no
way to get it, unless you who are in
terested send it and if any names
are left out it is not Intentional.
There are two brothers in this list
who are in the same division but diff
ferent regiments who are but little
ways apart and If this comes to them
they may be able to meet. If the i.5t
were complete it would be much
nicer for all. There are at least five
from Wa-Keeney who have been In
the Marne fight, four in the same reg
lment, yet they may not know it. How
many more l cannot tell unless the
list were full
know the address changes often
but there ought to be directory kept
to date and I will keep it and publish
from time. to time if you who can
will only send them to me-
