as our trench was just covered
with shrapnels. When we came
out of the dugouts it was daylight
and were surely sorry to see our
trenches all torn down as we had

and put it in shape again. Few
days after that intelligent section

thousand Fritzes in the old trench

not come over that night, because
if they had / would not be here

holding that sector that night, but
guess they knew nothing about it
because if they did they would not
have missed that chance to get rs

that sector was getting more noisy

that /. fall out and 60 home.
Think its about time for US to 10.
I don't see the idea of holding all
these divisions that did practically
all the fighting over here so long.
Our division was in the lines three
months and a half before the ar
mistice was signed. All that time
we were in range,of artillery fire.
First we took over the sector in
Elsace Lorraine, right in front of
Mount Sec. They told US it was
a quiet sector but we found out
differently. That is where we got
our first lesson in this war. The
first night the Germans welcomed
US with gas, We were III support
trenches that night and listening
to that canon music for six hours.
Two nights offer that we had to re
lieve our first battalion in the
front line. Few days after that
the Germans send over a great bar
rage which lasted As minutes but
there was no gas in it. I was on
my post in a trench when they
opened up on us and had to 60
about 200 yards to the dagout.

when the counties of Lincoln, Dons

county institute which was held in
the auditorium of the Otero County
High School building, the finest and
most comodious building in this sec

The funds available to each county
IS inadequate to secure the best lee
turers and instructors, but by COM
bining the funds Of the three coun-
ties the best the country affords in
the way of big educational lights
were available.
The intermingling of the teachers
