MAYBE some folks might not think
it ladylike, but our idea of lady pat
riot is fairly represented by the
Pennsylvania woman who trapped
200 slxunks in the wilds of the Ale
ghenies and then traded the skins fol
$1,100 worth of Liberty Bonds. She
is really entitled to larger recogni-
tion than some of these movie queens

EVEN the clairvoyants and sooth-
sayers do not seem able to get TO-

upon the time and manner for ending
the war Why not have some able
genius like Mr.. McAdoo take over this

and harmonious basis There should
be no lost motion in the business OF
the Seven Sutherland Sisters.

Somewhere in France,

ITO the Folks at Home.
"No doubt you believe l have by
this time forgotten that my duty TO
write you is as important as fulfilling
my mission here. l will say that l am
we'll and happy as can be expected
under the conditions, tho Of course
not so well pleased with things as
would be in America.
"You have been told that France IS
beautiful; so it is. | am indeed well
repaid. France seems to me as ro-
mantle as in days of old. Quaint vii
lagos, peasants with wooden shoes
and oxen drawing wagons loaded
with hogs. Everything seems SO
peaceful and yet we are in blood
stricken Europe, where the struggle
for the world mastery is in progress.
1t does not seem so here. We have a
splendid and beautiful view from our
barracks. 1t seems to me the folks
at home have an entirely wrong I'M
pressions of beautiful girls in France
There are none that seem beautiful
to me, although l have seen only
those of the lower class. But some
of the little children are indeed very
pretty. l have never seen such dirty
and slouchy girls as are found here
in the villages. A house seems to be
sort of combination which consists
of stable, hen house or chicken
house and then the home proper
which will perhaps answer as a cafe
also. We are allowed light wines and
beers, but the wine is bitter and soul
and the beer is worse. l also tried
champagne, but l would much rather
have a glass of milk (by the way
imagine a private drinking cham
pagne). We paid thirty francs for il
and it was like the beer-rotten. Some
high prices l have seen paid for Co
penhagen snuff. l know one fellow
who paid five dollars for one box
One fellow on board the transporr
coming over bought a box, or rather
can, of candy for five dollars. Twen
ty-fve dollars was made on that cal
before it was all sold.
Give my best love to all and do no
forget mothers grave. l am sorry
could not attend the reunion.
