The following letter from Everett
has been received by his parents. Mr.
and Mrs. G.. L. Wentworth of East Dover:
Dear Folks
4 couple of evenings ago we received
another letter from you dated July 10.
We have moved again, which partly
accounts for our mail being delayed.
This time instead of going toward
the front line, we travelled by train
away from it, so that after nearly a "a
hour ride We found ourselves in an un-
familiar portion of France although
somewhat similar to the section where
we spent the winter. Here there are
no active signs whatsoever of big
war. Not even a German aeroplane
can reach these parts. 1t certainly
does seem funny to be able to burn
candles at night without having to
cover the windows, or to smoke ciga-
rette outside and not have guard

On the other hand, this is not a rest
camp but training place where We
have to put in some strenuous drilling

and it is hot sometimes, YOU can bet
