Ny dear friend:

January 20, lJlo.
My dear friend:
| received your envelope of
Christmas cards and it is need
less to say, although | was very
much surprised, that | was ry
much pleased and made happy to
know that all of my old class
mates of the class E 1916, II had
not forgotten the black sheep of
that class. "Vive la classe de
1916, IT. and wish to thank
you, and through you thank all
of your friends of Hamilton
Street for the cards and the
CHEEKY words written on them. *F*
When one of my comrades
looked in at my barrack last
night and sailed the letter across
the room | did not notice it for a
few minutes because | was very
interested in novel | was read
ing, but when | looked down and
recognized the old familiar hand
writing my heart leaped. ****
You can certainly. believe me
when | say | wish | could have
been there in dear old Roanoke
Rapids Christmas as intimated,
but we fellows had a fine time
over here the 25th.
****In writing a CHEEKY letter
every now and then, you will
be doing your little bit in making
a fellow feel better when he is
up to his waist in the mud and
water of the trenches fighting
forthe paramount ofall countries,
the good old U. S. A.
thought often of you while |
was in Paris and wished you
could have been there with we to
view the beautiful and wonder
full sights Of that great city. AS
you know we used to talk about
how much we wished we could
visit Paris and other cities we
used to read about in class.
By the way how are times in
Roanoke Rapids these days when
all the fellows are off to war? |
remember that | was the first to
enlist in the regular army from
there and my regiment was the
first unit of fighting men of the
United States to land in Europe.
| have been transferred from
that regiment. | am now a deaf
and dumb" manof "companyof
the suicide club" that is am
a signal man in the Machine-Gun
Corps. It's great, believe me.
Please tell Sarah to send me
the number of Georges regiment,
brigade and division, and what
company he belongs to, as |
would like to write to him or
possibly | may see him some
where when he gets over here.
You should be in here and hear
the fellows singing 1.-The Yanks
Are Coming" and Send Me
Away with a Smile Little Girl"
It's Jolly DelleVe me.
Well | will have to close for
this time so will have something
to write about next time, that is
If you will continue to do your
little bit and answer this. | beg |
to remain as ever
Your sincere friend,
CHARLES R. BARKLEY.

GERMANS PROTEST
TO BOLSKEvIKI
(By Associated Press

MOSCOW, Saturday. March 30
Germany has protested again to the
Bolshevik government against the dec
laration last week of David r. Francis,
the American Ambassador, that Rus
STA will become a German province il
it submits to the peace terms of the
Central Powers. According to the
German contention. this is violation of
the peace treaty. The government re-
piled that the Ambassadors statement
was merely a reproduction of the tel
egram which he addressed to the ALL
Russian Congress at Moscow. which
ratified the peace treaty. The gov
eminent declares it maintains toward
the Ambassadors declaration the same
attitude that was adopted in respect
to the telegram sent to Moscow.
Sends Protest.
Germany sent the protest after the
Russian foreign Office had addressed a
protest against occupation of Odessa
by the Germans and Austrians, and
also against shipment by, the Ger
mans of arms to Finland after the
signing the peace treaty. The Ger
man reply concerning the occupation
of Odessa was that the city was a
part of Ukraine, and consequently that
the peace treaty between Russia and
the Central Powers was not affected
The foreign Office has asked Ger
many to state definitely what it con
siders the boundaries of the Ukraine
republic, regarding which there Is the
same mystery as exists concerning the
boundary between Russia and Ger
many. The greatest confusion is re
sulting from this state of affairs The
i parties and factions in Ukraine are
| taking various attitudes as regards the
