Dear Folks:
1t SENS little bit different writ
ing this time than it has before, as |
have letter or two of yours to
answer Our first mail came yester-
day and was read and re-read and
may be worn to threads before we
get anymore The indications seem
to be that it will be more regular
hereafter, now that they have locat-
Jed us.

was getting ready to leave the hos
pital Spanish inhuenza). / am now
in the convalescent department with
light duty. Walking down the street
today, noticed that most all of the
allied countries have soldiers here
with us. SO far have seen French,
Italian, Serbian, English, Russian,
and American troops. And the Japs
are not far away AS you might
suggest, it is somewhat Of a cosmo-
politan group that we have here
The Russians drive the Bolsheviki
out of their country, and to look at
the samples Of Bolsheviki that are
sent back to us, they must have been
set up to do it, They certainly are
not a brainy looking lot. Most of
them look real young. Once in a
while we find a German amongst
, them. They are the bad birds to
handle
The reports that reach US from
the western front seem to indicate
to me at least, that Germany soon
will be fighting alone. And it should
be short job to finish them after
that.
You tell dad that we here do not
especially appreciate the English.
We and all the other American,
French Canadian and Australian
soldiers that | have talked with are
firm, and desperately so, in the con-
viciton that they are all wrong in
their ideas

go back to the company. The squad

cient 1t is getting ready to freeze
up here now and then it will be much
healthier for this is a low and
swampy country, and the Russian
idea Of sanitation is somewhat prim-
tive. They say when it breaks up
in the spring that mosquitoes are as
big as black birds and as thick as
hair on a dogs back.
Part Of the equipment wears net
ting over the face, but we are living
in hopes that it won't take till spring
to finish our work. Part of Thomas
Stitt's regiment came in the other
day, but diligent inquiry revealed
that his company was not here. For
my sake / wish they were here, but
for their sakes | am glad they are
not.
4 might quote you few prices to
show you how things are at present
so that you can get an idea Of the
situation. Eggs when you can get
them are $50 per dozen; milk is
$3.50 a quart. Some things like fish
are reasonable. There is great
deal Of money around. Some Of the
kids have rolls of bills that would
startle you but the fellows say that
about all you can get with it is a
car ride and a bath-and you can
steal car rides and go without a bath.
(We always reckon time in the army
from the last day we had a bath }
We don't spend very much for car
fare. a smile is usually enough.

URGE CHURCH ATTENDANCE

III view VI the pTOCldHlatlOn OF the
board of health requiring all persons
to mask in attending all public gath
erings until they have been treated
with the serum used TO prevent in
iiuenza, the pastors whose names are
subscribed, desire as widespread
notice Of the following as possible:
The churches Of the city will have
the usual Sunday school and morning
services next Sunday In case an
evening service is held announcement
will be made elsewhere.
In the Sunday school the teachers
only will need TO wear masks. They
should come equipped to do so.
In the church services all adults
are to wear masks All owning masks
are asked to bring them. All not
provided with them will be supplied
at the church door.
The pastors would urge their peo-
pie to waive their personal opinions
and comply as largely as possible
with the desire of the board of
health.
lnasmuch as the work Of the
church has been made TO suffer for
some time now by the inability to
hold services, every individual is
urged to lay aside all previous plans,
as well as all prejudice against mask
wearing, and be on hand Sunday.
