The true northerner. [volume] (Paw Paw, Mich.) 1855-1920, 1918-02-08

Extracts from letter from Harold
Harboldt, Co. IA, End Platoon, Bar
racks 1889, Camp Grant, Rockford,
Illinois to The True Northerner.
Thank you very kindly for The
True Northerner. L. is certainly 4
great pleasure to get the home news.
Since leaving Paw Paw, l have had
many good experiences, and met many
different people. The army is fine
place to get the Corners knocked off
a fellow" If he does not fit into the
machine he is out of luck. / got my
first taste of army life in Columbus,
Ohio. There were about three hun
dred of US Rockies that landed in
Columbus from Grand Rapids. The
name Rockies" fitted us to perfect
ion. We could not march or keep in
step, and when we halted, the line re-
sembled jam pile. But since we
have been here we have improved as
SViNiSio oiu oAC INV pCTlcCL edteTS.
Our work consists Mostly of practice
marches, drill work and semaphone
or signal work. The signal work is
like learning the deaf and dumb Ian
guage. Today we are detailed on
snow shovelling job. They marched
us about four miles and then the work
began. We shovelled out a mile of
road sixteen feet wide and then
marched back again. Three hundred
took part in the exercise and the way
the ham and cabbage disappeared at
mess time would make one think that
each man did the job alone. This is
good place to be in. We have good
comfortable quarters, only when the
fire guard goes to sleep on the watch
at night, and that is not often. il
means extra duty for him.
1t is time to go on our afternoon
hike and will close with best wishes
to all my Paw Paw friends.

to express my thanks. Your gener-
osity is appreciated.
We have some pretty good times
in our section. Sometime ago
started Section Forum for the dis
cussion of political, military and liter
airy subjects. So far this has been
very successful and this last week
was praised in the leading editorial
of the Ambulance Service News as
offering a good example to all AM
bulance Sections, and Allentown
Daily papers have had accounts of our
discussions from time to time. We
have section library of about five
hundred volumes obtained from vari-
GUS sources which has a very good
selection of books and is constantly
growing.

But Arthur must have been able to shed
some light on the affair"
He said that when he found me did not
recognize him and was in a sort of dazed
mental state. Then he tried hypnotism. He
had often hypnotized me before that. and was
thus familiar with my condition while in a
trance. Well soon as he saw me, after
my long disappearance, he declared that
showed every symptom of hypnotic trance.
SO he at once tried the usual method for
bringing me back to a normal condition
and with complete success"
'In his report Arthur emphasizes that

YOU were found, you were in trance from

Just suspicion. | have feeling that
he could tell more about my disappearance
than he chose to tell"
why did you leave him.
"T left Bogota the day after I came out
of the trance. MY distrust of Raoul ana
the horror that felt for everything con-
nected with my mysterious experience, made
my stay there more than ! could stand.
But we parted friends, and i've sent him
money to go on with the excavations. How
he's getting I can't tell you. I've lost
my interest in FL Dorado I won't visit
Bogota again"
For some minutes leighton paced up and
down the shadowy room. Then he stopped.
with the air of one who has reached a de-
cision.
"Our course Is plain" he announced.
1--WE tried everything: there's nothing to
be done" said the other hopelessly.
'David, you've missed the obvious thing
was the emphatic reply. I'VE must go to
Bogota."

You and l will face Arthur together. If

Attention of Provost Marshal General
Crowder will be called to the sale of "exemp-
ton buttons" in stores here.
Todd Daniel, chief of the Department of
Justice in this city, said today he would
notify the provost marshal through military
channels.
The buttons are sold for five cents. There
are several different kinds, one simply hav-
ing the word exempt" across the center,
while others tell the classification of the
wearer. Mr.. Daniels said the sale of the but
tons was not illegal but believed they might
be used by "slackers'' as means of avoid

Government has not designated any buttons
