boys have the incest
ways of showing appreciation OF any
one in the world, we have decided.
We can't do anything out here for
them without being thanked, and
thanked in the most surprising and
unusual ways-you would never
guess what some Of them are.
| We have had keen collection OF
notes from the trenches, most OF
them in answer to patches of dough
nuts we sent out to boys on duty.
They are written on scraps of paper,
backs of envelopes, or anything
though some of them are very care
fully written on the incest paper we
are surprised to get the latter from
the trenches.
We will have to get up book OF
notes from the trenches after the
war for gems come in among them.
some are in poetry. Imagine boys
out there under shell fire writing
poetry to thank us for doughnuts, but
they do it. One rnote said we girls
were Just as necessary to the regi-
uent as the holes were to the dough
nuts"
One of the favorite ways among the
boys of saying thank you is to gather
M souvenirs and send them back to
us. We have a collection of them now
that we will always delight in, and
we wouldn't part with any OF them.
We have lots of shells of all sizes,
with the powder removed, OF course.
MANY of them have been made into
vases, and when we get back nome
we will have flowers everywhere II
we use all our vases.
One company has promised to get
each of us a Boche helmet the next
time it can make a raid. We are
going to see that the members of tt
company have doughnuts to eat just
before the raid, and the boys say the
douphnuts will make them get the
Germans. Another company has sent
ms some captured signal balloons and
colors.
l think the best present we have
had is "Piddy-dink." He is our little
fox. We had mended clothes and
baked doughnuts for one of the boys
in a machine gun company, and he
was always bashful and got tangled
I'D when he tried to make little re-
marks of thanks. One day he came
in with the tiniest, cutest little fox
ever seen.
He had found the fox, and said he
wanted to give it to us for mascot.
We were crazy about it, right away,
and named him after general
"Piddy-dink' has been with us two
months now, and he is just as tame
as a little puppy. We never give him
meat. and he has kept gentle and
tame. He plays around with the two
dogs which other boys have given us,
and seems to have forgotten entirely
that he is a fox.
Another thing we like about our
bows is their willingness to work.
When we first moved out here we
were assigned a detail of three boys
to help us with our work, for we could
| not make fires, cut wood, and dc
Everything when we had to make a
