Letters From France

| Lcttcte EIUm IIduCc Nov. 17. 1918. MT. and Mrs. G w. Anderson. Carlisle. Ark. Dear mother and father: I am endeavoring to write you again after a few days of rest. We are doing nothing but rest and get cleaned up after the big drive.
 l took my first bath yesterday for over a month, and then it wasn' very good, had to heat my water in a tin bucket; but 1 think my days of eating bully beef" and hard tack will soon be oyer. Whensyou get hungry enough it tastes pretty good. The worst thing is doing without water, but since I have made it through all o. k. I am proud of my exper- fence and now 1 have begun to think of home and the good times 1 am going to have when I get home. Before now 1 was just passing the time as best I could and seeing all of France possible When we would be in camp would go out and look over as l much of the battle ground as possible. 1 was not in it very long but saw a great deal. Will tell you all about it when I get home.
 The weather over here is just fine. We are having just little ice every morning. When I get up and go out in the morning l certainly wish 1 was there to go squirrel hunting. 1 expect to be back in plenty of time to get my part of the ducks this winter.
 hope you are where you were
 when I left for that seems more
 like home than any where else
 If you have the place I will helr
 you work it just the same as
 did before 1 left home.
 1 am in hurry and will close shortly. This leaves me feeling fine and weighing as much or
 more than 1 ever did. Tell the people 1 will tell them how the company went over the top a couple of times on the last drive.
 l was fortunate to come out with. out scratch. Good bye,
 from your loving son.
