 When l wrote you last a part of my letter was lost, and you said to write again. l am living the life of christian. When l get lot of good sea breezes, and sometime 1 think this is one of the most healthy lives that a fellow ever lived, for there are only a few houses that are kept as clean as ship or a training station.
 There has no thing happened since last June that is worth mentioning. only l have certain ly enjoyed some good meetings occasionly. where they were cannot tell. 1 have met some of the incest fellows in the navy l ever met in my life. H>re the rich and poor are just alike and have the same opportunities in advancing in rate or going to the officers training camp. if he wants to be an officer. but don't want an officers D lace here or anywhere.

Say, you know letter from home is just something grand to a fellow when he is a long ways from home. If your son is in the navy, send him a letter to New York or Fortress Monroe and the name of the ship he IS on and he will get it 0 K.

without any preparation to meet
what could have developed into a
very critical situation in real life.
At about 10 o'clock with the play
at its height the lights blinked and
went out. Blackness, total darkness,
cnveloped the house. The play, which
was realistically portrayed by the ac-
tors, had carried some people TO such
a pitch hat when the lights went out
some women started to scream and
some men to get out of their seats.
Mr.. Berth raised his voice above
the noise and said. Now please re-
main quietly In your seats. Maybe
our friend. the orchestra leader. will
give us Il tune, The orchestra struck
up a rag and saved the situation.
Lanterns were brought upon the
stage n the company continued the
play in the dim light of h Shake

with a candle in her hand when the
lights were flashed on. With the
