Uncle sam,s Army We'll Fed.

MT. and Mrs H. c. Geer have re- ceived the following letter from their son, Private Frederick H. Geer. in France with the American Expedition ary force:
 Somewhere in France,
 April 9th, 1918.
 Dearest Mother and Father: Arriv- ed safely in France and was mighty glad to get here Our trip was une- ventful. We never sighted a subma- rine. The scenery here is something wonderful but the town we marched through was about as quaint place as you could imagine. I saw some German prisoners yesterday and they seemed perfectly contented. What sur prised me was the way our army feeds our men. You would never think that we were thousands of miles from the T. s. As long as they feed US that way I will be perfectly contented.
 The French people certainly did give us a fine welcome. They are a, remark able people-they can laugh and smile after almost four years of this con- f1ict I was appointed first class pri- vate before I left the states. The boys who have been here quite while seem to be as cheerful and hope ful as the boys that just arrived. How is Norman and Donald? Tell Bill Dougherty's father to tell Bill that I will write to him in a few days. I suppose you have received my card by this time. I wrote you letter be- fore leaving with the intention of mailing it the night before leaving but was so tired I turned in thinking could mail it the next morning, but didn't have the chance. The peasants here wear wooden shoes. Can you please send me about 3 half dozen O. D. handkerchiefs. guess I will close now wishing you the best of luck. With love,

There is snow on the noun tain peaks and in the valleys the gar dens are all green, they sure do look fine. Have you started your garden yet? I would like to be there and work it up for you evenings.
 The women do all the work here, running trolley cars and driving teams. Believe me- they are great workers
 The buildings here are all of stone and cement, no wood, some live in caves along the mountains. The most of the people wear wooden clogs. The carts here are just like the ones they have in Ireland. two wheel dump carts. with a small donkey drawing them; the carts will carry as much as "a two horse cart in America

Wants to Get to Berlin.

William (Jiggs) Donohue, former ly cigar maker in this city, now with the American soldiers in France, writes the following letter to James R. Moran of this city:
 Somewhere in France,
 April 9th, 1918.
 Dear Jim: Well, I am sure I am away from Terry now and I'll say we did move when we got started. They sure did slip one over on us, as we expected to get here, but not so quick as we did. Everybody is better sat isfied, though it's better than hanging around an embarking camp a couple of weeks. For my part I'd just as soon keep going right into Berlin, but I don't think you can do it just now without makeup. We had fine trip over and the weather was great and 1 guess the subs knew that Battery B was on board because they didn't show up at all. You ought to see this gang, Jim. you would think they were going to a German picnic instead of to fight. The crew said we were all nuts and it was the greatest bunch they ever took over. Most of them are pretty well scared but all this gang worried about was eats and sleeps. This is a great country as lc%l 0So l ildVC SCGll, buL oQDUOS6 l will see all I want of it before I get through. It is fine weather and the grass is green that looks better than snow and it's a pretty country. We are at rest camp (get that rest) for a few days. but where we go from here I don't know. You are not supposed to know anything over here and write less as you will have MT. John Censor on your neck. I'll tell you ore thing, Jim, fellow that can't get an anchor hold on this jibber they talk over here is out of luck I don't think the Irish in me will ever let me shoot that stuff, or am too thick They will give you an awful deal on the money, too, but I haven't any so that don't worry me. We'll. I think I will close now as it's about 2.2O o'clock I guess. You got to be law yer or a burglar to figure out the time here. Remember me to all the boys and tell them ' ga still in the ring and going good.
 Yours as ever.
