Tn a letter to his parents, Mir and Mrs. Frank Gilbert, Broad street, Pri- vate Henry c. Gilbert. member of Bat tery A, 10Srd Field Artillery. tells something of his experiences in fight ! ing in France:
 we are not at a very active front | inst now. but of course, there is no Itslling when the fun win start Fritz hears from us occasionally. however, he never fails to retaliate on the i~dough- boys" as the infantry are call ed. Ordinarily we are quite a dis tance of behind the lines as is prac ticaIly all of the artillery. A few linen go out though every day to the front line to observe the effects of our lire. Have been myself several times. We ran into a little affair with snip sers one time. but pulled out safely. IT picked a copper bullet $out of the pommel of my saddle upon our return. Another bullet clipped rein off the lhorse in front of me. It turned out ithat we were off the path and too near .the front which makes up into No Mans Land. Two of them" were up in the trees. Their bullets were al- most spent when they reached us. Both snipers are now dead, for they gave away their positions to us-and Springfield rifles are both accurate and far-reaching. Next time l will be bit careful Shrapnel flies much of the time, but we are well protected.
 Our battles are constantly in pro- gress on clear days. A 'boche" came down near our front a week ago. The Frenchmen f1v circles around the Ger mans when they try. If I were you. I would not worry about me. am not in any very serious danger. The in- fantry boys are the ones that catch hell.
 Shells are bursting on this front now as I am sitting in a dugout' but as the wires are inactive I guess I'll have time to write a bit. A mouse is now peeking over brace at me Guess he's wondering if Pm going to keep awake the early part of the night which am. , ,..s ..s .--
 I do not anticipate any great danger here. I haven't experienced anything very exciting since the episode I told you about: probably won't for some time to come. Germans are remarFa- ply poor shots, anyway. I'm glad dad taught me to shoot straight, for it may save my life-if 1t hasn't already. Don worry. l have an idea that I'll be back in Brown university studying hard in the not distant future. and here's hop ing.
 We are we'll fed and well clothed here. having overshoes and even leather jackets to wear under a slick CT so you see Uncle Sam forgets noth- ing.

er than in England is being demonstrat-
ed by the course of events in the great
battle now being fought in the western
part of Europe. The Germans, by dnt
of great effort and tremendous sacrifice
of men and materials, are within %
miles of the nearest of the French ports
on the English channel and within only
few more miles of the most important
French port connecting with England. If
the United States had taken landing
port in England for the purpose of un
loading her hundreds OF thousands of
men and her vast quantities of NUM-
tions and supplies, that landing ports
use might be entirely cut off by such
contingency as the German capture of
the French channel ports, in which case
it would have been necessary to trans.
port the men in training from England
to France by some other route and thus |
great delay. Now, however, |
with a French port of entry somewhat
removed from the danger zone, the Unit
ed States can continue to ship men and I
supplies with regularity.

Greece is fulfilling entente confidence
by putting an army in the field and CO.
operating with the allies in Macedonia.
The assistance given by Greek troops to
the British in the recent operations in
the vicinity of the Struma river lends
encouragement for further successes in
that section of the war activities. The
entente forces are now opposed chiefly,
if not entirely, by Bulgarian troops; and
Bulgaria, if the truth were known, would
probably be found TO be heartily sick of
the war and hardly in position to carry
it on with any degree of yigor. Indeed
Bulgaria has been merely marking time
in the struggle of late, apparently wait

up the war and then admit Bulgaria to
the division party. 1t will be bitter
dose for Bulgaria if that country is again
forced into the thick of the fray.
