the past several days when their
meals were served to them. They
made files by hacking the blades of
case knives and then used the i'm

Says Hun Gains
Are of No Mater
ia7 Value to Them

In the opinion Of Charles NJ. Plat
Ter, of a railway engineering compan!
in France. the gains made by tht
Huns in their recent drives have beer
OF no material value to them.
Platter, who made his home here
with Mr.. and Mrs. z. G. Hodges prior
to the war while soliciting for life
insurance company, writes MIS-
Hodges letter under date Of May ID
The young soldier, who Is of German
descent, has no love for the soldiers
,of his fathers native land.
THE big drive you read about in the
papers has been victory for the al
lies" Platter writes. Everything is
not what it appears to be, The ground
gained by the Huns is of no material
value to them. and it certainly was no,
a setback to the allies.
From now on" Platter continues
II don't care = ever get back tc
the L. S. A. If we only can crush the
lawless barbarous tribe of uncoutt
savages who are permitting them
selves to be lei to slaughter by a few
maniacs.'
Platter writes that he has been IT

Added to this willingness is the spirit
