Denver labor bulletin., 1918-06-22

a perlScope ana later we got tne report
that she had gotten the sub. Con-
| siderable excitement prevailed, but l
had feeling that all would be well
and somehow that feeling never left
me. Since our arrival have had the
experience of seeing an air raid and
| hearing the bursting and whistling Of
| the bombs around US. We are sta
toned some distance from the front,
but can hear the roar of the big guns
which arouses a curiosity to take
hand in the. game. Military precau-
tons prevent writing long or in
teresting letter. Cuthbertson, Nc
Carthy and Hennen are stationed some
miles away, so see little of them.
Write often, as letters from civili-
cation are as welcome as food, and
that is saying a lot. Pvt. c. C. Adair,
| Co. d, 4th Engineers, American E. F."
Arthur L. Schmidt, Co. E, 318th
Engineers, American E. F., France,
writes to Secretary Birdsall from over
seas that LaBelle France is sure some
fine country, but he hasn't yet per-
fected himself in that kind Of talk,
but is getting there, with the coach
ing from the French lassies. He
doesn't like the wines and beers, so
is imbibing very little of those bev-
erages. The trip across was tiresome,
as there were no sub raids and moth
ing happened to break the monotony
of the calm and placid sea. He says
his soldiers certificate came in very
handy one day, but does not explain
the details. Asks for any kind oi lit
erature in the way Of news from the
good old U. S. A Sends best wishes
to all friends.
Chas. +. Schuyler, Ambulance Co.
1856, sends a postal from Windsor,
CanaAa that ha his xE-.yff and
having some fine time. Well and
happy.
Carroll Gilmore says that the heat
in Camp Greene, n. C., reminds one
of the most vivid pictures he has ever
seen of that place where there are no
snowballs. and he longs with an in
tense longing for the mountain
breezes of Colorado. But then, what
is the heat and uncomfortable condi-
tons compared to what the boys are
suffering who are wearing the gas
masks in the trenches. He hasn't
made up his mind which is the worst,
the gas or the masks, but is willing
to give both a trial.
Leslie Taylor, who was called from
the snow-capped hills at Hayden, is
now with Machine Gun Co., 35th In
fantry, stationed at Nogales, Ariz-
Says the Chow" is good, work light
and feels that he is having a long
vacation at the expense of Uncle Sam.
Nogales doesn't seem like it was in
the United States. A Mexican Is
killed on the border line every once in
a while. 1t was ITO in the shade the
day he wrote and they expect to have
some right smart warm weather later
on. The Spanish girls have completely
captivated him and he has visions Of
a hyacinda after the war is over.
c. d. Westblade is at Fort Doug
