Dear Folks
Well We hav3l made another
move and have much better

us fine, even give over part Of
their houses to us. Lots of the
houses, the owaers live down
stairs and give over the upstairs
10 the Marines. We are well
thought OF here and we are all
trying to better our standing
every day. | think that the U. S.
Marines will have the greatest
reputation of all military organ-
izations from all countries, for
courtesy and fighting both when
this war is over. | really think
We have the Kaiser about ready
10. run now. too, so it won't be
long until | will be coming home.
There isn't any use of worrying
because | am not in any more
danger here, than if | were home.
Whenever my time comes of
course | will take the count, but
| don't think that they have ai'y
shells in Germany with my
name on them.
This is sure a beautiful coun-
,ry we are in now. Th; china e
seems about like the middle west
in the U. S. Also | believe the
season is about a month Garlic!
here than it is there. We have
a fine little river near camp
which W. swim in and wash
our clothes. It is chick FIJI. OF

contain myself when l see the
Zig boys lying dOTu N therc
lfanning their old tails back ard

illu WIFI IlO liOuulS dl dlI. uSS-
day morning some OF tEe men
had gas drill, down in a hollow
on the fair grounds. First we
saw the yellow gas cloud but
this soon rolled down the incline
into the depression and thinned
out until it couldn't be seen, but
of course it was still thlre and
strong enough to do damage il
no protection was had. | didn't
see it when it was first turned
loose, but just as it was rolling
down into the pit-then the men
donned their masks and had
stretcher drill in the hollow and
stimulated relief work. They
had six str5tchers and men to
carry them, and a man in each
stretchcr to make it more real.
The gas drill always draws
quite a crowd of civilians who
look on in bug eyed amazement
during the performance. Well
it is interesting I'll admit.
Company E turned in mess
kits today and were issued new
ones-I got a perfectly brand
new one. The ones we had were
issued when We first arrived here
from Co. II, hence we had to eX-
change than for new Co. E ones
which just arrived. l believe |
told you that the mess kit con-
sists of a knife, fork, spoon,
plate and pan. all of aluminium
except the blade of the knife, cup
also. 1t is very compact and
does not occupy much space
when closed. We will cook with
these things when We go on
hikes.
vent down to Camp Free
mont Sunday and saw Erling,
and looked his camp over-say
it surely is a large camp-it took
me nearly an hour to find his
tent. Say his eyes stuck out
when l walked in on him, l
could have knocked them off
with a stick. He was sure glad
to see me AMI we had one big
CAB fest. | stayed until four in
the afternoon before coming
back so We had a long visit. He
showed me all over, out to Menlo
Park and the Defender Club
there, then over to the band
stand where one of the regimen
tai bands was giving a Sunday
musical program, tn IN back to
the starting point-his tent. He
showed me his pictures, a copy
of the High School Annual, 1918,
etc. | saw a copy of the last
Leader there, too. Oh the Lead
er goes everywhere, believe me.
| was picked out among a
number Of others Monday to at
tend a school for non commits
stoned officers as this 63rd is go
ing to be split up it is rumored
and We will drill the new men
when it is reorganized. 1t is
something new all the time. Pm
