First Knox County Boy AT
Front Writes Letter.
To Aunt
DOESN'T THINK WAR
WILL END THIS YEAR
Is Thankful Fighting Is In
France Instead OF
United States

The following letter from Corporal
c. b. Hall OF this city, who is mem
lcr of the First L. S. Engineers. was
written to Corporal Halls uncle and
aunt, Mr.. and Mrs Charles Miller OF
Newark and was originally publish
ed in the Newark Advocate:
Dec. 81, 1917.
My dear Aunt and Uncle:
About three weeks ago | received
box Of candy from you but right ,af.
terwards | was sent away on spec
ial detachment. and haven't had an
opportunity to write until the present
time.
! was awfully glad to hear from
you, especially in the shape OF box
CT my -faYoritc candy. 1t surely was
mighty cOnsiderate of you to think of
me at all and, needless to say, en-
jOycd it immensely. | cannot express
the thanks feel to you.
| have been in France for more
than four months ! suppose mother
told you that | am with the First
Regiment, L. S. Engineers (regulars)
in the first division. ! was one of the
first American fighters to go to the
front. No American troops were on
the front previous to those went
with. SO YOU see you've got a nephew
who is right in the mess with the
first.
won't attempt any description of
the front, for you've read hundreds of
them in magazines and papers, but
no description could make this war
seem any worse than it actually is.
had short visit to Paris on the way
to the place whore | am now sta
tened. Since | was on military
mission my stay was short, but | en-
joycd il very much.
Paris, too, is up to all descriptions.
! expect to 20 there again on my way
back TO my company, whenever | go
back. Conditions over here are not
bad. Yankee troops are coming over
by the thousands and the submarines
are not getting any transports.
But 1918 will hardly end the war,
though I don't think it will go much
longer. Germany is still strong. but
the allies are mistaken.
Pm glad I'm not drafted man, but
whether were regulars, militiamen
or national army men, we're all sol
dicrs. I've written many words, but
little of interest. Nevertheless, |
must end this letter here. This leaves
me we'll for I'm in excellent physical
condition.
sincerely hope you are both well
and happy and untouched by the saw
agery OF this frightful war. Thank
God, we are fighting the Boches in
France rather than the United States.
Regards to all,
Your nephew.

RED CROSS SALE AT BETHEL

Fifteen miles southeast of Liberal
in the Bethel neighborhood, a Red
Cross sale was held Monday evening,
June 10 and the sum Of $266.66 was
raised. Our soliciting committee
visited Liberal and were more than
pleased with the way the business
firms donated, and we extend our
thanks to these good people and want
them to know that we certainly APP
preciate their help, and you can be
sure that when we Bethel folks have
money to spend that he will patron
ize them in preference to the few
who refused to help.
The country people were very gen.
erous in their donations such as
calves, poultry, grain. eggs, canned
fruits, vegetables, fancy work, ETC.,
which proves to US that they are will
ing to deny themselves to support the
bows in France. Sixteen large cakes
were sold which were sliced and pass
ed to the crowd, also ice cream served
in cones and we think everyone pres
emit had all the cream and cake they
wanted, for after the crowd left we
had plenty of each to spare. Auct-
ioneer Dickerson certainly deserves
credit in giving his work to this great
cause. He puts much greater effort
into the Red Cross sales than ne does
when he is drawing wages. He has
given himself the name Of missouri
Bob" but we think he should have
the name of patriotic Bob" for we
believe he truly deserves it.
