Dear mother:
Received your welcome letter to-
day with about seven others. Got
ten when the transport came in. Gee,
! wish had special stenographer.
Fact is have been getting So many
letters that when | got ten. and the
sergeant was calling them off the
boys began to holler, Have heart -
Also got Papa's letter with the
money | am very grateful to the
people of Ebert. Not so much for
the money but because 1t makes me
and the rest of the fellows feel there
is someone who cares, and someone
who is back OF us and our work with
spirit that is the right kind. The
Kaiser cannot long fight country
whose people will go down into their
pockets to bring cheer and hope TO
boys who have left them to fight for
flag and country such as ours.
| am so tired. Can hardly see
straight. Have walked post for four
nights and three days straight, get
ting only what sleep | could between

sent from here. My name was on
the list. but all the men passed the
examination so | didn't get to go
If you hear of the marines getting
into a scrap in this part of the world
you will know where they came
from. | am not allowed to tell yor
where they went, but they are pret
ty sure of a fight. 1t left us shori
handed, hence the extra duty.
wish was home to help You folks
but don't see any chance of gettinf
there very soon. Russia droppini
out makes it so much longer but th'
end will be just the same.

Related VindicatIon.

The Persians of the time of Cyrus were Zoroastrians. The Persian relig- ion was primitively mono theistic, and they allowed no idols or other mate rial symbols of deity in their tenn pies. There was less enmity on the part of the Jews against the Persians than against the other great nations with whom they came in contact, due probably to the monotheism which characterized the Persian religion. So Cyrus, whatever else may be said of him, was certninly not an idolator.- Christian Hereld.
