SON Alfred Mills who recently landed

lows:

but l have been on the move ever
since / left the States: have been
in four different camps since l arr1Y.
ed on this side, one in England and
three in France. and / am tired OF
travelling. We received our helmets
and gas masks today and we are
moveing soon to another camp to drill.
At present am located il a French
town where the people live IN caves
dug into rocks, they are very curious
dwellings. The American soldiers are
billited to these caves, nine others and
myself live in ore, they make very
comfortable bedroom.
Our company has been split up again,
most OF us Cfnc1uding Harris and -
were placed in the 163rd Inf. and We
will soon be assigned to division.
We sunk one submarine coming
over and one Of the boys was accident
" killed on the boat. had a very
pleasant surprise a week ago IN an
other camp. met Charley Shore, he
is with the artillery. 1t serta1nly IS
great to meet some one from your
home town. Every where you go over
seems rather odd to see so many OF
here you see American soldiers: It
them located in such ancient looking
places. This is very interesting
country, and I will have lots of news
to tell when l get back to the States.
don't think it will be long, as Fritz
is on the run row and he isn't going
to stop until he gets to Berlin.

Aline. Petrova IN Own Picture.
The picture at the Dixie this after
noon and evening is interesting for
three reasons. One is the star, Pc
troTa, the other is the story, "Daugh-
Ter %. Destiny" and the other is the
fact that it is the first photoplay put
out By Petrova's own company. An
American girl is party to two mar
ges, one to a rascal who commits
murder and then disappears, the other
morganatic union with prince By
sheer greatness and strength Of char
