GOTFRID ERICKSON'S
HEAR FROM FRANCE

Gotfrid >Ericksons have received a
letter from France giving some par
ticulars about the death of their son
Joseph over there. The letter is writ
ten by man who has been in Warren
ana knew Joe from here It is as fol
lows:
Somewhere in France.
March 81, 1918.
Mr. Gotfrid Erickson.
Warren. MINI.
Dear Sir:
You will remember me as I stayed
at your house for while and YOU
called me 'Dutchie''. My right name
is Leo DeClodt. I write this to tell
you something about Joe's death. As
Joe and l was always good friends and
l know you are anxious to find out
something about him. We are in the
same Co. in the same squad Have
been together every day since we left
Camp Cody. Was together all the time
at Washington, D. c.
Joe was always in the best of spirit,
never complained about being sick
except the last couple of days we were
on the road he had a headache. The
night before he died he said he had a
pain in his side and went to bed early. |
The last anybody talked to him was
about nine o'clock. The next day was
Sunday and Joe didn't get up for
breakfast, as some of the rest didn't
nobody paid any attention to him until
about ten o'clock I went in to ask him
how he felt and found him dead. He
simply went to sleep and didn't wake
up. He never stirred all night He
must have died very easy as 1 was
sleeping next to him and was awake a
good bit of the night
Everything was just as he went to
sleep. I have never heard what he
died with. But expect the government
will let you known in time
The squad which Joe belonged to
has bought you a picture Of the Co.,
which Joe shows very good, and you
will receive it in time.
I write this letter thinking you will
be glad to hear from someone who
knew Joe, as well as his folks, and was
with him when he died.
am yours truly,
Leo DeClodt."

cows being left to furnish milk for babies.
 Until the United States entered the war food was sent to Thiaucourt by way of the Netherlands by the Am erican relief committee and later by Spanish relief committee. This consisted principally of bacon, flour, sugar. rice, beans, peas and some co coa. Two boxes of condensed milk were received in Thiaucourt each month and now and then shipment of salt meat. Twice boxes of Ameri- can shoes arrived for the inhabitants and at long intervals there were small shipments of clothing.
 During the four years' occupation by the Germans none of the civilians were allowed to leave the town. How ever, on one or two occasions indi viduals were permitted to visit a nearby village to at end the funeral of relatives, accompanied by sol dier guard.

WITH THE AMERICA-S FORCES IN FRANCE, Nov. 13.It was three American priVateS who gave the French civilians of the German oceu- pied village of Thiaucourt the great est thrill of their lives. For four years they had been waiting and then the Americans came.
 When the three privates-an ad vance guard of swarms of other Am ericans in their wake-swung into the war-town village of Thiaucourt not soul was in the streets. But within a few minutes news spread among the seven hundred civilians that the Americans were there and men and women and children came in droyes from cellars where they had been hiding in terror for two days and nights. And from other cellars and dugouts there came six hundred German soldiers who were delighted with the idea of giving up.
 The offensive of the first American army, which wiped out the St. Mi hief salient, began on a Thursday morning and it was Saturday after noon when the weary Americans reached Thiaucourt, hungry and fat igued from fast walking in their eagerness to keep pace with the fleeing Germans.
The Alaska daily empire., 1918-11-13

As the Americans poured into the village and the French realized more and more that again Thiaucourt had come into it's own men stood in the streets and cried openly and women sat about on the doorsteps and bits of wreckage caused by shells and wept until near exhaustion. And in the confusion children cheered but even some of them, the older ones realizing what it all meant, cried too and kissed the hands. of the officers and men.
 What food they had on hand the French turned over to the Americans, the villagers insisting upon the Am what they had. So in the streets and in the houses, some of them occupied only a few hours previously by<Ger- man officers and men, the Americans made themselves at home, for 6 short breathing spell, and the French population of the village endeavored to satisfy the appetites of their de liverers
 From the time the Germans reach ed Thiaucourt in September. 1914, un til a few days after the village had been retaken by American troops the civilians were entirely without fresh meat of any kind excepting now and then a chicken or rabbit which were raised in cellars without the cattle in the region of Thiaucourt were taken by the Germans, but the

 PARAGRAPH ONE The Secre- tary of War has today issued the fol lowing order, to the Provost Marshal General:
 You will at once instruct state headquarters and local and district boards immediately to discontinue all work connected with the classified tion of men who on December 16th, 1918, attain their 37th birthday You will further instruct said boards to continue completion as expeditiously as possible the classification of all registrants who on December 16, 1918, attain their 18th birthday and who have not attained their 37th birthday. You will finally. at the earliest appropriate moment direct all local and district boards to issue questionnaires to all registrants who on December 16, 1918, have attained their 18th birthday, and to proceed with and complete as early as pos sible the classification of such regis trants.

To you, members of that system, must come a sense of duty well done which only a loyalty, patriotism, and devotion such as yours can bring. The coun- try and the world knows that it owes to you debt of thanks and gratitude which cannot be measured by words, but only by the affection, the re spect, and the esteem, now yours, oI those among whom you live and from whom you have taken that which was beyond price.

MATANUSKA HAS 300 TONS OF
 1918 POTATOES
New Potato Crop Is Har- vested and Ready for Markets; Smaller but
 Better Potatoes.

ANCHORAGE, Nov. 5-About 500 tons constitute the amount of the po- tato crop this season in the Matanus- ka Valley, the agricultural district on the line of the government rail- road 40 miles north of Anchorage. ln addition to potatoes, there are large quantities of beets, onions, tur- nips, carrots and cabbages. The yield of hay totals at least 50 tons.
 Potatoes are the chief source of revenue for the farmers. This vege- table was the only psoduct in last seasons crop to be marketed else- where than Anchorage and towns in tho Cook Inlet region. Matanuska potatoes were sold in nearly every place in Southwestern and South eastern Alaska. In the future. as in the past, they will be the chief agri- cultural article of export.
 This season, as last, only enough heets. onions. turnips and cabbages were raised to supply the demands of the Cook Inlet region. The hay is not baled, and is just about sufficient for the needs of livestock in the Mat apuska Valley.
 While the potato crop this year not so large as it was last year, is much better in quality. The vie of 500 tons, however, is more than will be required in the Cook Inlet region, so there will be a consider able quantity available for marketing in towns along the southwestern and cont ba cfo eooofc of

WHAT IT MEANS NOT TO
 BE A CHRISTIAN

It is to live for the world, self, or pleasure-the world which passeth away; the pleasures which are but for moment. The theatre, the dance and worldly company are only bubbles on the stream of time.

HINDU CONVERTS HELP BEL
CLANS IN THE WEST.

Somewhere on the western front is
an interesting contingent known az
tho Chotanagpur labor corps, a corps
OF Bengal natives who are working I'M
der the supervision of Jesuit mission
aries. They are all IIindus, converts
to the Catholic faith, the spiritual
children of the Belgian Jesuits, who
for more than thirty years have la
bored in Chotanagpur, and have sue
cceded in bringing over 100000 ma
tives to Catholic Christianity. These
men are not engaged in fighting, but
just behind the lines are working
splendidly at roadmaking and other
kinds of pioneer work. More than
thirty years ago the Belgian mission
aries went to India to carry the light
of the faith, and now in the days Of
war and stress numbers Of their con-
verts are in devastated Belgium, re-
paying with their labors.

NO RADICAL CHANGE IN SISTERS
HABITS,

The recent determination of the
Catholic Hospital association at it's
Chicago convention to introduce a
washable habit for hospital sisters is
not going to work revolutionary
change in most orders, according to
some of the Colorado superiors. Sis
tiers at work in the operating rooms
always wear sterilized gowns, like the
surgeons and lay nurses; but. while
some of the orders wear washable
habits in operating rooms, others SIM
ply use washable gown over the
regular religious habit. The resolu-
ton adopted at Chicago simply means
that such washable gowns are to be
worn outside the operating rooms al
so. 1t will not do away with regular
habits in most orders. Some sisters
working outside the operating rooms
have already adopted a sort of apron
which envelopes their habits.

BELGIAN MINISTER VISITS THE
HOLY FATHER.

The Belgian minister of grace and
justice, M. Carton de Wharf, was re-

Pope recently. He was in Rome a
month ago, with two other Belgian
ministers, on an official mission to
the Italian government. At that time,
of course, there was no question Of
his going to the Vatican. Having left
Rome, and visited the Italian front,
M. de Wharf returned privately and
was received by His Holiness in an
audience that lasted thirty-five min
utes. He then had an opportunity to
thank the Holy Father for all that he
has done for his country and for him
self personally, Pope Benedict having
obtained the release of his wife from
a German prison.
