should always be watcred first and
fed afterwards and this is good

or when, but We are in the army OF
occupation, and in Germany. and
don't know how long we will have
to stay here, out hope We will be
coming home soon, but don't look
for me until you see me, and don't
,, worry, as we are making out very
well, and | think l viii enjoy myself
better than | have before, as we do
net have to work SO hard now. l
think we are going back to the old
time drilling again next week.
They have a large theatre here for
the boys, and 1 have just come back
from the show They had min
strel show, given by the 353rd In
fantry, and it sure was good; they
have d show, or movies, about every
night. SO they say, SO you know that
is pretty good. Well, think we de-
serve something pretty good.
Mother, you were speaking about
having oysters. l sure would like
to have been there, as it has been
most year since 1 had any, but l
want plenty of them when l do get
back.
Mother, it is pretty bad about the
Flu taking so many away. l was
sorry to hear about Mrs. Hanes-
worth, and Roland and Earl Fran
tim; it was some surprise to me. L
hope it will soon be over. We have
been pretty lucky; have not had
single case in the Supply Train that
[ know of, but l have heard of sew
eral fellows dying from it over here.
am well, and feeling line; the wea-
Their is just about cold enough to
make fellow feel good. 1 have
been in pretty good health ever since
1 came over here. l am going on
long trip in the morning. You see,
when 1 went to DIXON, we got trucks,
and when l came back l brought the
truck, so we have to take them to
Cooling, Germany, up on the Rhine,
about 80 miles from Bitburg. Per-
haps you can find it on large map,
so look it up, and you can tell just
about where we are. We want to
get an early start and make the trip
one way in a day, and come back the
next day.
There are some rumors that we
are to be taken out of the army OF
occupation and sent home soon. but
don't think there is anything to
| it. We hear so many rumors, but
never anything official We don't
know from one day to another what
the next day will bring forth. Army
life is just a wonder-wait and see.
You don't know anything five min
utes before it happens, so you see
| can't tell you what we are going to
do, but 1 wish the people in the
States would get together and make
fuss about getting US home faster.
Of course, we can't all go at once,
but we can go a good bit faster than
we are going. 1 don't see any use OF
us staying over here any longer; we
have done all we came over to do
that is. to lick the Hun, so now we
are ready to partea tootssweet,

rather spend the rest of my time ov-
er here in Germany than in France,

as l have no use for the French. The
Germans treat us fine; they will give
US anything they have, but the
French are just the opposite. The
Germans like the American boys
very much; they say we saved the
world, and we did, too. l am trying
20 learn to- talk a little German, but
it is pretty hard to catch on to, but
1 can understand a few words, but
can't talk it at all. l am going to
get a dictionary and study it; 1
think I can get a good bit of infor-
nation from that.
Well, it is now getting late, and 1
must close. as have long drive
ahead of me in the morning. We are
now billited in German homes, with
nice beds to sleep in, with stoves in
the rooms. Tell Papa to tell that
man I won't be home to take the
job. I wish I could. Goodbye.

Will GET $50 BONUS
Given to Those Honorably Releas.
ed Since ApriI 6, 1917-Affects
$4,000 Marylanders.

Some $4,000 Maryland soldiers,
sailors and marines will be affected
by the recent ruling allowing a $50
bonus to all honorably discharged
o;cers and men, according to Adj
Gen. Henry M. Warfeld. This in
cludes the diaftees, the navy's
900" and the men who volunteered
in the Marine Corps.
According to the present plan, ev-
cry person in the military or naval
service who has resigned or been re-
| leased from duty under honorable
conditions from April 6, 1917, or
who hereafter resigns or is honor
ably discharged, with certain excep-
| tons, is entitled to- $50. The prin-
cipal exceptions to the rule are: Per-
sons who did not report for active
duty until after November IL, 1918;
any person who has received one
months pay on discharge from the
army, under the act of May 49,,
| 1917, Or any person who is entitled
| to retired pay. This bonus bears no
relation to insurance, pensions or
compensations, but is given to the dis
charged soldier, sailor or marine as
ment.
| Those entitled to the bonus are Of
ficers and enlisted men of the army,
navy and Marine Corps naval reser-
visits, male and female; persons in
the service of Coast Guard, Coast and
Geodetic Survey or Lighthouse Ser
vice who were on active duty with
the navy during the war.
The bonus is to be paid by the sup
ply officer who makes the final set
Element of mans account. If al
ready separated from the service,
members of the navy or naval re-
serve will make claim upon the dis
bursement division of the Bureau of
Supplies and Accounts, Washington.
Marine Corps members will make
claim on the officer who settled their
accounts, or, if this officers present
location is unknown, claim should be
forwarded to the paymaster at Ma
rine Corps headquarters, Washing
| ton.
| All claims should be accompanied
by a statement of service and the
original certificate of discharge or
orders to inactive duty. If the orr
ginal discharge or order is lost it
will be necessary to obtain a dupli-
cate and statement from the officer
by whom final settlement of account
was made to show that no gratuity
was paid at discharge. No particu-
lar form of claim is required; let
ter requesting the gratuity, stating
the dates of enlistment and separa-
ton from the service and the present
address, with the original discharge
papers, will be sufficient.

Mrs. F. l.. Vane, Henry street, this
city, has received the following let
ter from her son, Private George F..
Vane, Co. B, 314th M. S. T., France:
France, Feb. 8, 1919.
Dear Mother:
As I have few spare moments, l
will try to write you few lines, as it
is Sunday, and am back to my Com
pany again, and have received my
mail. 1t has been a long time since
I got any mail before, but when 1
got it there were twenty-eight letters
and seven postals. 1 sure was glad
to get them. 1 sat down and read
all of them without stopping. I also
received lot Of back letters, that
had been sent to the 9Th Division,
Casual Co., and several from the P.
M. T. Replacement Park that had
been following me up.
I received my Xmas box, and it
surely was fine; the cake was good,
also the nuts and candy. l surely
did enjoy them, and it seemed bet
ter because it came from home. Some
of the fellows said they thought they
would have to open the box and eat
the contents, but thought that l
would be back after a while, so they
did not open it, and am glad they
didn't.
Well, Mother, today is Sunday.and
while sitting here writing 20 you, and
looking out of the window, I feel
homesick a little. The sun is shin
ing bright, and it is warmer today; it
has been pretty cold, and by the sun
shining brightly, it reminds me of
dear old Maryland, where The flow
ers bloom forever, and the sun is al
ways bright The sun hardly ever
shines here; We don't see it some
times for weeks; it rains so much,
but lately it has been showing instead
of raining. I feel like 1 would like
to be in good old Cambridge, and
see you all, and all of my friends that
you say are asking for me, and espe-
cially to take a stroll down the street
or over to church, with the little girl
next door, whom I often think of.
Clara said in her last letter that you
all had just had the Flu. I was very
sorry to hear that, but am glad you
have recovered. l hope you are ali
well by this time, anyway.
Oh. well, it don't do any good to
sit here and worry about getting
home; that don't make the time go
any faster, it only makes it seem
longer, but the time is coming some
day, so let's hope it won't be long. l
don't know just how long it will be.
