The cables and express compa-

providing for government control

during the war and as a means of

after until the termination of de-
mobilization. -. The war is over

pleted for many months, probably
not for several years. The cases

Our community was again made
to realize that victory did not
come to us without the payment of
great price, when a message
from Washington brought the sad
intelligence that it was officially
reported that Private Robert Glot-
felty had died in France on Octo-
Der 23rd as the result of wounds
received in action, Robert was a
son of Mr.. and Mrs. Josephus F.
Glotfelty, and was called to his
country's service in October, 1917.
Leaving the comforts and sweet
comprehensive of an ideal home,
he went forward cheerfully and
sturdy to take up and Loyalty bear
the ardrous and hazardous life of
soldier and meeting the supreme
test of manhood and citizenship
like hero. That nobility of char
acter, that kind and loving dispo-
sition, and generous thoughtful
ness for others, which endeared
him to all with whom he came in
contact in private life, won for him
place in the esteem and affection
of the men with whom he stood
shoulder to shoulder, fighting, en-
during and dying for the innocency
of childhood, the purity of woman
hood, the freedom of humanity and
the perpetuation of the principals
of right, truth and justice. One
brief year service in so holy and
noble a cause, though at the end
the supreme sacrifice was demand
ed, has placed this young friend
high upon the worlds honor roll,
and the fact that his strong right
arm was raised in defense of thous-
ands of homeless and fatherless
children whom he knew not has
been indelibly written among the
arChieveS of heaven, and this noble
champion of the cause of right has
earned calm and sweet repose.

Private Mckinley Harvey, 319th
Field Artillery, under date of
Sept. II, wrote his brother as fol-
lows:
DEAR BROTHER l received your
letter of Aug. 18th. l was very
glad to get it, also the clippings
from The Republican. We are
getting our mail more regular now.
We did not get much while we
were moving around. The crops
were right good over here l think.
| got to see thousands of acres of
wheat just when they were cutting
it. | never had any idea that there
was so much grain raised over
here. They surely have nice
ground to farm. There are no
rocks and the ground is not cut up
with hollows. We could see for
ten or twelve miles sometimes that
looked as level as a floor. The
mountains over here are about
like the country around home.
People don't live on farms; they
live in little towns, or they look
more like forts, and farm the land
all around them. The whole coun-
try is dotted with towns. l don't
like the towns at all; they are all
stone or cement houses. l have
never seen a house built of lumber
either here or in England. They
use tile roofing. 1t is a great sight
to see the towns after the Ger
mans have shelled them. They
are pretty hard to set on fire but
they sure can make a Settlement
of stone, cement and tile. l have
seen a couple of towns shelled.
Well, l have always wanted to
see real artillery fight. l got to
see one one night when l was not
expecting to. 1t sure was. great
to see. l could not get away but
l enjoyed it after l got used to it.
Like to see the artillery put over
barrage. have never been hurt
yet, SO | guess that is the reason |
like to see it.
| was sorry to hear about Lieut..
WEIGH being killed. That was hard
luck but person can expect that
when he is in war. We see quite
few wounded here, but the U.
S. soldiers have been very lucky
SO far. They have lost very few
men for the fighting they have
done.
I have not seen Chas. Rode
HEAVIER for a while now. He is
along the front somewhere. There
are four or five of we Garrett
county boys together yet. Willie
Steyer is a wagner in this COM
pany. | am one of the mechanics.

Is | would like to have some of
the sweet corn, but will have to
wait now until next summer. l
suppose there are quite a number
of the boys gone from around
there now. l don't know about
being home for Christmas but it
does not look impossible now. The
Germans sure are getting some of
what they deserve, and will have
to quit pretty soon.
l understand that each man
over here will get a label to send
home for Christmas box. If
get one l will surely send it to you.
We have moved up several
miles from where we were when l
last wrote and are now not very
far behind the lines. We NAV 90
on up at any time. The line here
is going forward all the time, and
we are now on ground that the
Germans held two weeks ago. We
crossed the strip of territory that
has been No-Mans-Land for the
past four years, and it certainly
looked like the real thing. There
is nothing left of the trees but
stumps of numerous lengths and
the ground is literally full of shell
holes and covered with a mass of
tangled barb wire and pieces of
trench wood work and dugout
timbers. All the signs on the
trees are in German and there is
German material, and ammunition
lying all around the woods. They
had a regular dugout city down in
a, hollow near here. Nice con-
crete dugouts with glass windows,
stoves, furniture, etc., and some
of them had electric lights and
running water. Outside they had
concrete walks and rustic summer
houses, flower gardens, etc. i
guess they expected to stay for
ever from the looks of things.
They got out pretty soon when the
shells began to fall.
I don't know whether you can
read this letter as l am writing un-
der difficulties. | started it yes
terday, but we got orders to move
last night, but expect to go this
morning. We are waiting now
for orders and l am sitting on my
pack in the rain writing this letter.
1t is not very cold and we are in
one of the largest forests in France
we are not likely to get cold as we
have plenty of wood for fires.
This pen is no good, the ink is
bum and the paper is wet, SO |
guess l will quit. l don't know
when will get a chance to write
again, but will do so at the first op-
portunlty' PARKER. "
