My dearest Mama and Papa;

ing aud am IN the best of health,
hope that you can report the same
from al. at home.
This is a very strenuous life up

man with a steel constitution to
stand it. Since coming up here We
have lost two of our officers and
now | find myself Battery Com.
mauder OF four big French guns.
If vou don't think it is a JOB you
just ought to try it Last night we
fired Barrage fire very near all
night and of course this morning
everybody has a headache from the
concussion. Fritz sure caught hell
last night and this morning he is
trying to reciprocate. While | am
writing this let Ell one she'll after
another is passing over my head
and so long as he is satisfied with
his fine workmanship | am sure
am. We had two casualties last
night from sharpuel bnt so fur We
have had mighty good luck, |
have quite few Frenchmen with
my Battery aud thsy are delighted
to haye an opportunity to fire over
into Germany aud that is where
most of our shells go.
am enclosing you a red band
off a German officer S cap, IHe and
and five others ran into one of our
high explosive shells, The woods
and country around here are ful! Of
Germaa rifles, machine gun, d-ad
dutchmen and every thing else
Fritz made surh hurried depar.

time for collecting his belongings

but he doseu't know that we dou'l

aeroplaues battles lately ana it il
wonderful to see them sail through

THE l. ". ". REGIME IN RUSSIA

America has before it m invaluable
lesson when it surveys the result Of
/. w. Wism run wild and unbridaled
in Russia. It is true that the rule Of
the Gar was autocratic, miserable
and unjust to the masses, but there
was q certain law and order. All
semblance Of the old law and order
has been destroyed and the Bolshevili
have furnished nothing to take its
place. Their progresS was destruE
tive-they have destroyed and now
they do not know how to rebuild.
The Russian people had fond
dream that the new regime was to
make Ill men happy, all men free; al
property was to be equally divided.
However, human greed asserted itself
Just - soon as political restraint WAS
removed and sel6shness became the
guiding principle Of al, producing
chaos, crime ard want.
That d the way the I. W. ". theo-
rles worked n Russia, and that & the
way they would work anywhere. The
Russians 1Qfeed their own vaeas, n

CHARLEY NEIDERHUT
WRITES FROM THE BORDER

Dear folks:-
You ask what this country is like.
Well, I'll tell you this part or the part
where we have gone thru Is q good
place to stay out Of entirely. It il
not much good for grain and that
kind Of stuff, or cattle. They keep q
steer here for six years before he IL
of any size and he is never fat. What
ranches are here and have water, do
fairly well. The alfalfa gets about
eight inches high when il blossoms and
it is very dry; we wouldn't even cut
the stuff. Ranches that have water
have to use tiling for their bitches
and bury them all, then bring out q
drain whenever they want Il on &C
count Of the drifting sand which fills
everything up. OF course, there are
some good places in Arizona, but not
here.
Now, about The Spanish and Mexi-
can people here-They do not have
any love for the American soldier at
al. There are = few that are all
right, and talk about swell looking
girls, il you ever saw any this is
where they are, tell you.
They have nice little town here,
but it is the soldiers and camp that
makes It as lively as it 10. Nogales
is on the Southern Pacific railroad.
They say that this IL one Of the best
camps there is, and it is certainly q
nice big one.
have been very lucky and have
not been into any trouble yet, and l
am going to try not to get into any il
/ can help it.
You said that you heard we would
be in France in two months. Il is
not sure. We may stay right here to
watch Mexico ~ they are afraid Of
trouble from the rebels. There % .
heavy guard out al the time.
Well, this will be Ill for this time,
10 don't worry, - I am Ill o. K. and
will take care Of myself.
Your son,

tor trucks In this county, the High

creased and efficient use Of motor
truck transportations.
Behind this movement rests the
authority or the food, labor, railroad
departments, the state and national
councils Of defense, and the full power
OF the U. 8. government. To make It
q success, It ID imperative that the
cooperation Of every shipper, every
farm owner, every motor aruck own
er be secured Immediately.
It Is the patriotic duty Of every
man in Colorado In these walks Of
life, to aid the drive by every menas
within his power, and most particul-
arly by sending 1t once to the High
ways Transport Committee Of the
State Council Of Defense, every bit
Of available data regarding his pres
ent methods Of shipping Of produce,
the style and body Of truck uSed, the
territory covered, the conditions Of
the roads, cost Of operations, whether
one way or return loads are carried,
and IN general, whether the service Is
satisfactory and profitable, available
