 Dear Friend: I am a long way from dear old Stafford, but am trying to Keep happy under the way the things are here. We are camping in a town that is nothing but few French peo- ple and the rest American soldiers. We are sleeping. in the houses atd barns of the town. I happened to get in barn, but it is nice and warm. It is impossible to buy anything in this town because there is no store, but there are a few wine shops and you can get French tobacco and cig- arettes that will put you to sleep for an hour after you get through snok- ing them. You couldn't buy any soap of any kind if you had all the money in the world here We were all going to chip in and buy lantern but when we found oil was 90 cents per gallon we dropped the plan quick. There are no candles at all here. We have been going to bed at and [ o'clock
 There are fifteen others besides my self sleeping in the barn and we get plenty of sleep over here, but we are all happy just the same I have not seen a newspaper since l came to France. When we went through England we got a few there; but-there was no news in them. I would give anything to get hold of a | daily paper. We had good trip across and the l last three days the old ship did every | thing but go over. was not seasick | at all, but for travelling around to | foreign countries for the sport of it, no more for me! Travelling in the good old U. S. is good enough for me l after I get back. e.t- @ We'll, Frank, remember me to all my old friends in, Stafford, and if you | have any old chocolates or cigarettes that you can't sell. send them to me and will see that you get. your pay for them because money is no good of mine home. am going to get, paid some time next week I will get two months pay when I do. We have been travelling, but now we are in our camp; we will get 1t there .,,, | I suppose you will get this letter about Thanksgiving time. We'll re- member me to all the boys and~I will | be glad when I get back to the good | U. S., never to go out of it again.
 Be sure and write me a letter as oft en as you can for letter from the home town comes in handy here. ] have received one letter and one pos tai in the past five weeks. 50 you see we don't hear anything that is going on in the world.
 Your friend.
