 Dear Folks: I'm feeling fine and hope you are all the same. We are enjoying the city life here. We go out every other night. We are in no particular danger so don't worry any as we are as safe here as if we were at Terry. Don't send too many cig- arettes because we can buy them here now and for half what you have to pay in the states and don't send them over once a month. Tell father there's a lot of rabbit dogs here and all kinds of other dogs that I never saw in the states. I'm going to bring some kind of a souvenir from France if I can. There's plenty of American soldiers here and Kaiser Bill had bet ter look out for his scalp. I suppose Dugas son is still waiting for that helmit Tell him 1 haven't got it yet Well I'll close with love to all, hop | ing to hear from you soon. Your son,

RED CROSS CAMPAIGN
 TO USE THE MOVIES.
Picture to Be Shown at the Breed
 Theatre.

Part of the publicity work of the Red Cross campaign for war funds which is to be launched throughout the country on May 20th to continue to May 27th consists of the exhibition of motion pictures illustrating the work of the Red Cross organization.
 In cooperation with this movement inaugurated by the Red Cross national committee on publicity the manage ment of the Breed theatre has arranged for an exhibition on Monday and Tues day Of this week of the official film en- titled The Spirit of the Red Cross
 The picture has a sustained story throughout, in the course of which the work of the Red Cross is demonstrat- ed in all it's branches, such as caring for refugees, ministering to the wounded and providing resting places and refreshments for the soldiers. Stirring battle scenes, life in the trenches, bayonet charges and other thrilling incidents of the war are shown in graphic action.
 The picture shows Sammy, typical American youth leaving his family and his sweetheart and arriving in France. His sweetheart has volunteered as a l Red Cross nurse and she fellows shortly thereafter. The dash lover the top by the American troops clearly
 depicts the method. of trench warfare l and the life in the dugouts under
 ground. A sensational battle takes place in which Sammy is badly
 wounded and taken to the hospital
 where he is nursed back to health by
 the girl he loves. It is a picture of tremendous power
 and one that every patriotic American
 should see. It is not possible by or. dinary means to visualize the inmen- sity of the work which the Red Gross
 is doing in this world conflict, bu pictures like The Spirit of the Ret
 Cross are a great help-in enabling tht people at home to realization of thu
 many sacrifices that are part of thu routine work of mercy and ministra
 tion of the thousands of Red Cros workers.

He mentioned the ties of friendship that are so helpful the ties that bind the sailors and soldiers to the service of their country, the ties that exist between the fellows in the service and their sweethearts, but, said the speaker, the sweetest of all earthly ties are those that bind the mother heart to the boy she loves, and the best way for fellow away from home to show his appreciation of this sacred tie is to be true to his mothers God
 The boys left the tables with ex- pressions of appreciation for the pleas ant occasion. Ladies of the Y. M. c.
