The New Mexican has received an
interesting letter from Jack d. Train
or, dated August 10. He is with Co
L of the 356th infantry of the expedi
tionary forces and has many informa'
tive things to tell Of army and civil
conditions in france.
Somewhere in France, Aug. 10, 1918.
Editor Santa Fe New Mexican,
Santa Fe, N. M.
Dear Sir:
| thought it was about time that
wrote and told you q few things about
the country and life over here, as !
promised Mr.. Newhall, when / left
last April.
We had a fine ocean trip and did not
see any sign of submarines, in fact !
do not think there is much danger in
crossing the ocean when there is a
good escort of torpedo ~destroyers ana
~battleships with the transports.
| think that France is a beautiful
country and it has SO many old castles
and plastered stone houses that Ii re-
minds me greatly of New Mexico, the
people also have such ol~d=fashioned
ways; they seem to be about 300 years
behind us In everything especially In
agricultural methods. 1t Is a common
sight here to see horses and oxe
hitched together on the same pillow.
The women do all the work here, as
there are practically no men here.
Most of the towns that we have been

French People Take Their Lot
Chcerfully, Says Santa Fcan

in lately have formerly been occupied
by Germans. In some OF the streets
one can find numerous bullets and
pieces Of shrapnel.
The French people seem to take
their lot rather cheerfully under such
trying conditions and 1t makes an
American admire them for that rea-
son. 1t seems to me that the people
at home do not fully realize that they
are at war, as they are able to still
enjoy so many Injuries. II they~were
to be herelfor only one day they woulu
change their ways a great deal; call-
dies and cakes of any kind are actual
lily luxuries over here.
Myself and Adolfo Ortiz, also OF
Santa Fe are the only ones in this
company from Santa Fe. We certain
ly were fortunate in keeping together
SO long.
We have been receiving copies Of
the New Mexican once in a while
through the kindness OF one Of your
employees, Miss NJ. Ortiz, and we can
never Express our gratitude enough
for such kindness. What we like a
great deal about the paper is the news
of men in the service, which is a
very good feature as it keeps us post
ed On who is still left at home. I hone
that you will continue to publish
plenty of news on the above subject.
We also desire to express our
heartfelt gratitude to the ladies' OF the
Red Cross Society OF Santa Fe for
their kindness to us. We will not for
get them when we come home.
With best wishes for success,

from the chief OF engineers at
Washington, d. c., that surveying

Stokey states that Immediately
upon receipt OF the offers he will
forward them to Washington for
the consideration of the chief e

1.-THE BELL Boy
One Of the Best ArbucSle Comedies
Vet Released.

Yet Released.
THE Bell Boy" can be ranked as one
OF the best Arbuckle Comedies yet re-
leased. The two reels contain plenty
of laughs and comical situations that
will bring mirth to any house. The
most noticeable feature, and one
worthy enough for fans to ponder over,
is the fact that it contains not any at
all. of the vulgar touches that are sc
evident in present day comedies. This
production can claim the exception by
being q. clean and wholesome lausn
maker Of the very best.
A number OF original bits have been
injected that places the comedy in a
class by itself It does not Gepenu
entirely on the hackneyed stunts but
the producers have brought many new
ideas into the release that add great
" to lis value. Alice Lake, Fatty
Arbuckle, Al ST. John and Buster hea-
ton form a quartette that is hard to
beat and each Of these present their
quota Of laughs throughout. During
the last reel Al st. John and Buster
Keaton have a good opportunity OF
presenting some highly amusing aero
| batic stunts. This production provides
exhibitors catering to high class pat
ronage with a comic feature of value
and strikes a very high average a.
compared with other Arbuckle re-
| leases. Showing at the Strand SUNDAY
| and Monday. Strand.
