packages, many Of them insured, con-
tanning fruit and other edibles, are
received daily in such condition as
to render the contents unfit for use
1t is also reported that many pack
ages containing fruit in decayed con-
dition have been insured, and because
of the condition Of the contents are
not delivered to the addressee by the
military authorities, but for sanitary
reasons are destroyed.
The mailing of such edibles is I'M
derstood to be contrary to the wishes
of the military authorities, who have
found it necessary in many cases to
withhold delivery in order to safe
guard the health Of the soldiers.
Postmasters are directed to advise
their patrons of these facts and to
refuse to accept for mailing parcels
containing perishable articles, espec-
tally fruit, addressed to military
camps or environments, if there is
reason to doubt that contents will not
be in perfect condition upon delivery
to the addressee.
1t should be borne in mind that
mail matter for the soldiers in these

Dear M. A.-Hope you are well.
Have not heard from you since we
have been here. Hope you have re-
ceiyed my directions. General Polk
was killed a few days ago, and Gen
eral Stuart is our corps commander
now. Well, there has been a consid-
cradle fight on our right. The Yanks
did not hit the mountain, but shelled
it good deal, but Mr.. Yank could
not break our line. So, dear, write
often and give me all the news. Di-
rect: S. W. Fowler, 26th Alabama, in
Shelley's Brigade, Walthall's Diyis-
ion, Stuart's Corps. If any other
changes, will let you know. Do wish
this war would close, but everything
looks like war and sounds like war.

Well, here we are again; still at
our post with the Hodge Shipbuilding
Co. We put one ship into the water
on July A. Everything went off nice
ly, and at IL o'clock the good ship
Alpaca slipped into the water to start
out and help get Fritzie's goat. At
ter the launching we went out to the
beach and enjoyed a good old coun-
try picnic. We saw foot-races, boat
races, swimming races and other
amusements.
IL you should take the Alpaca and
set it in the square at Covington it
would stick out in the street at
both ends, and be taller than the
courthouse. We sure are proud to
be part Of the crew that built it.

We MUST HAVE SHIPS
This County Called on To Supply
Volunteers i'or Shipyard Work.

Hon. w Laird Henry, chairman
for Dorchester county OF the Mary

ed an urgea, letter from General
fraucis T. Waters, chairman OF the
Executive Committee OF the Council.
asking him to make immediate ap-
pointments OF local men to receive
registrations OF volunteers for ship
ward work. General Waters writes
that it is the most important call
that the Government has made on
the Maryland Council and there is L
demand that the work must be han
died swiftly
The purpose Is TO raise at once Il
reserve force OF $50, 900 shipyard
volunteers. Maryland's quota is s.
$50. This county'S quota is Ito.

to local committeeman. These names
will be forwarded to Mr.. John X.
Shaw chairman in charge OF the La
Dor and Employment Bureau, 26 and
% Commerce street, Baltimore. The
buttons and certificates of enroll
ment will be furnished at later
date. The volunteers will not be
given immediate employment, but
will be called en- later. The fact
that so much shipbuilding is done in
Maryland means that they will not
have to go far from their homes.
The wages will be high and the
Government is now working out the
housing problems, so that all will be
we'll taken care of. There will be
steady employment.
1t is not promised that these vol
unteers will be exempted from the
draft, but the men now in shipyardS
nave been given a deferred classiti-
cation and the volunteers will have
special consideration.
In this critical year the man who
helps to build a ship will serve his
country as usefully as though he
carried musket.
The shipbuilding reserve will be a
great honor body of patriotic Ameri-
cans.
This county's quota should be
made up in a week. Action is need
ed. Apply at once. If you cannot
