TRENCH LETTER

Carl Helke, Jr., received a trench
letter from Hilton e. Dressed, recently,
which reads as follows:
June 9, 1918.
Dear Carl:-In a letter from my
uncle at Wausau postscript said
that you wanted line from me. Ger
tainly! If this does not pass the
censor, I'll try again and be sure next
time that I'll write you real letter
on American 'Y' paper. This is a
French trench letter. 1 returned from
my first trench work back to this
place for rest but few days ago,
and expect to do another shift in
few days more. / would like to tell
you OF the trenches and the expe-
riences one has, but cannot say too
much. Can you imagine the sound of
a shell coming your way? The near
est l can come to describing the
sound is the passage of limited in
the air over you. 1t whistles and
wobbles through the air and lands
with an awful deafening explosion.
Those kind come often, and we have
gotten more or less used to them. One
does when you learn to determine
how close they are coming and where
approximately they are going to fall.
| would appreciate letter very
much and don't forget to remember
me to the K. K. KS, and also don't
forget that | am always member, and
wish you all the best of luck.
Sincerely,
HILTON L. DRESSED,

MODELLING BOOKS

Everything that has been said or
that could be said in praise of the
value, the comfort and the charm of
books may be safely multiplied to
represent their Importance to the boys
in the service. There are so many
soldiers that there is no danger of an
over supply of reading matter. Each
book will be read by many men in
camps. Books are letters from home
and from strange countries, written
by the best letter writer's and adj
dressed to nobody in general but to
everybody in particular. Books are
reinforcements.
A splendid and much appreciated
service is being rendered by many
Librarians, who are placing magazines
and books on troop trains. Our IL
brarian has been furnishing the con-
tingents of selects with good read
ing material as they made their de-
parture for training camps. She re-
quests the boys to take good care of
the books and get them into right
hands when arriving at their destin-
alton, so that when the home BOYS
are through reading them, other boys
may have the pleasure. Recently the
librarian had a letter from a Marathon
county boy stationed somewhere in
Alabama" asking If she had a few
books to spare for some soldier boys
down there. She has answered the
letter by sending some good books to
this soldier boy. This is only one in
stance showing how books are ap-
preciated. The eagerness with which
donations are welcomed is proof that
they fill real need.
This month very large number
of selects will leave Marathon county,
and in order to furnish them with
good reading material, more books are
needed, otherwise some will have to
go without. We don't want our boys
TO leave without reading matter, and
after hearing the boys write for books,
and telling of the solid enjoyment de-
rived from the camp libraries, it
seems we ought to just keep those
boys flooded with good books. "This
activity is well directed and of un-
questioned service to the men who
find themselves in the army" was
the statement made by one soldier.

MARATHON WAR FUND

In the daily papers are letters from
the boys "over there" in which they
recite the fact that they get little
sleep in the daytime and none at night.
Airplane fights are seen over the
lines each day; there is a constant
roar OF the big guns-the order comes
to go 'over the top" They are glor-
iously fighting for all of us. After an
attack there is the wounded to be
looked after. Then comes in the bene-
fits from the Marathon War Fund.
The Red Cross is doing great
work among the boys; the workers
themselves are exposed to all kinds
of dangers, but they do it cheerfully
and willingly SO that the soldiers may
have the proper care and comfort dur
ing and after their gallant fights. The
need is great. Fill up the Marathon
County War Fund to overlooking.
You have friend who is sick; what
do you O'clock after him and see
that he has proper care and atten-
ton. The soldiers and sailors are
more than friends-they are part and
parcel OF ourselves, and what we do
for them We do for ourselves. Team
work is necessary: everyone must put
his shoulder to the wheel and keep on
pushing until the war is brought to a
successful close. One of the ways to
keep pushing" is to boost the Mar
athon County War Fund.

HOME SERVICE

Home Service is one of the big and
important activities, which has been
carefully looked into since the declar-
alton OF war. and il has been found
badly needed in training camps in
this country also abroad, as well as
right at home. The Home Service
department for Wausau and Marathon
county has been well established and
offices are on the second floor of the
Marathon County Bank building.
where families of soldiers and sailors
may feel free to go and ask for adj
vice and information. 1t has been
found necessary TO have representa-
tives of Home Service departments in
the training camps, environments, nav
al training stations. ETC., also abroad
in the front lines in order that the
work may be carried on in the very
best and efficient kind of a way. BY
doing this the soldiers and sailors
are kept much closer connected with
their families. and either side will not
worry nearly SO much as they know
there is this department to carefully
look after them il in need. We have
published previously the objects and
purposes of this department, which is
really branch OF the Red Cross.

RED CROSS NOTES

Wanted-More workers at the Red
Cross rooms. There is plenty OF room,
plenty of material to work on, but not
plenty of time IN which to get all the
work out. Let us spend our spare
time, and more than that, at the rooms
on the second floor in the Y. M. c. A.
building.
The May and June shipment of
sweaters, consisting of 700, have been
sent to the Central Division at Chi
cago, from the Marathon chapter.
A number of little girls with Ger
trude Kieffer and Lucille Remmel
experimenting the affair, gave show
and parade recently, for the benefit of
the Red Cross, at which time $1,000
was realized, and turned in to the
Red Cross headquarters.
The little girls, who dressed up in
Red Cross uniforms not long ago,
and paraded our streets, demanding
money for the Red Cross, made $23.43,
and to this amour. they have now
added $2.19. This shows the enthusi-
astic spirit of the little folks, and that
they want to do their part in this
great war.
Shipments of hospital garments,
pajamas, bed jackets, muslin bandages,
abdominal bandages, triangular band
ages, webbing splint straps, and
numerous other necessary articles are
being sent out continually from the
headquarters to the Central Division.
The various branches throughout
the county are doing a great deal in
helping the Marathon chapter and are
sending in some very fine finished
work, which the workers in this city
are highly pleased over.
E. E. Topham of Dancy gave a
dancing party in his hall the past
week, which brought $4,000 for the
Red Cross.

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Curea

by local applications. as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is only
one way to cure catarrhal deafness and that
IS by constitutional remedy. Catarrhal
Deafness Is caused by an inflamed condition
OF the mucous lining OF the Eustachian Tube
When this tube is inflamed you have rumb-
ling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it
IS entirely closed. Deafness Is the result. I'M
less the Inflammation can be reduced and this
tube restored to its normal condition, hearing
will be DESTROYED forever. Many cases Of
DEAFNESS are caused by catarrh. which is an
