was shipped from there to Louisville,
Ky. June 9th and there | took the fin

Louisville to Great Lakes. III arrived
here en- Sunday. June 10. | thought
that it was hard way Of doing things
when first got here. had to serve my
own food and wash my own dishes
scrub the floors after each meal. But
now | don't mind the work since am
more used to it and now really like II.
When we first arri' ed here, Of course
the sailors that were here called US
workers. and made fun of US, but now.
We can do the same to other rockies.
When We 90 to chow ito eat) you
ought to see the hungry Jackies when
they are marching to the Mess Hall
how they 20 after the good eats we
have for the good exercise you get
makes you some hungry.
We file out in the morning at s
O'Clock for drill, and drill until II
o'clock. but We have three fifteen min.
ute fall outs for rest during the time.
Same in the evening. 1t makes no
matter what the Jsckies have to do,
they 20 ahead with smile on their
face and do it when the command is
given.
Company D. 3rd Regiment. is said to
be one of the best parade drilled Com

All OF the Kentucky boys that want

not where we will go, but We have a
good idea and | guess you people do too.
And also wish that you Kentucky

clothes at once it is sure some sight
and the white suits We h ave. sure have
to be washed clean, so you see when
the war is over We will be pretty good
clothes washers and can make some Of

Marion, Ky. !
Dear Madam;
You will pardon my writing 10
you without a formal introduct-
ion, but having served some time
with your son, Corp. E. b. Ord
way, in France, and having been
fortunate enough to have been
temporarily returned to America
as an instructor. | thought you
would be glad to hear from me.
You may be justly proud of your
son, who belongs to the company
which was with the first to land
in France. the first to go into
action and which has established
an honorable record for itself
wherever it has gone. Uncle
Sam has bee very kind to US ov-
er there, giving US all We need
to eat and to wear. and taking
good care of US in every way pos
sible. AS a result we are all IN
the best of condition. When |
left your son |. IS than a month
ago, he was well andfeellng hne,
having received no injuries what
soever as a result of his activities
in France.
You may be interested to know
that man after man has made
the statement that the American
Army in France is the more NOR
al and clean army that the world
has ever known. A higher com.
pliment can not be paid to the
young manhood of our country.
and you will be glad to know, 10
doubt. that this is absolutely
true Of your son.
1t is true that your son is do
ing a mans Job, but America
has come to a critical position
in the history OF the world,
; where We Americans are telling
the whole world that We are will
, ling to give our all to prove tina,
, freedom and liberty Of all man
, kind. the protection OF little chill
dren. the honor Of women. must
be our principal Of life. We are
demonstrating to the world tina,
there is only one rule of righ,
living. that is the rule of equal.
} ity and fair play to all. A
more noble cause we could no,
have. and you may be well proud
that our son is Ioysily and brave
ly doing his bit in preparing
; this world as a proper place fol
mankind TO live in.
ii Twas sorry that | had to leave
the boys back there, for they ar,
going through the hardest par
of the war right now. lhsve
! no doubt that your son will be a
better man for having had III,
experience. and you may be ,
proud parent because he has tax
en- part in this great world wild,
work.
Wishing your son all the gooC
luck in the world and with tn,
hope that he soon may be return
ed to you, | am yours truly,

HOLES IN MACAR0NI.

 Was Put Around Them2

Was Put Around Them2
 Haven't you often asked. How do they get the holes in macaroni?" Yes, you undoubtedly have, and unless you have visited macarOnl factory you are probably sill in doubt. Interest ing methods gre ClAGlJyed in bringing this food into the form in which 1t Is placed before tE2 public.
 After tie dough has been well mixed and kneaded in powerful machine 1t is ready to form into macaroni, which is of q tube shape about one-rourth inch In diameter. or spaghetti, which Is a solid stick shape of about one-eighth inch In diameter This $ done by fore, Ing the dough under hydraulic pressure through a cylinder with fat circular bronze die or mold ut the bottom. The maCarOni die Is full of holes about one fourth inch ln diameter, and each hole has q small pin in the center of 1t, which Is attached to one side of the hole. This pin forms the hole in the macarOnl and divides the dough on one side as 1t starts through the hole, but before the dough reaches the end of the hole the divided side comes to- gether and remains so, making a per feet tube. The spaghetti die contains only plain holes about one-eighth inch in diameter arranged In groups. When macaroni and spaghetti come from the presses or cylinders they are cut into certain lengths, the length depending upon whether the curing or drying Is to be done on trays or by hanging over rods.-Exchange.
