LETTER FROM FRANCE
FROM WEST FLORIDIAN

Tho following interesting letter,
written by Private Lewis Cock, well
known in this section Of the state. will
be. read with interest by many Pensa-
cola friends:
Army OF Occupation. Belrupt. France.
Dear Father-Doubtless you wonder
what we are doing now that fightins
Is over. We are still kept quite busy
at various things. We drill two hours
per day, more for exercise than any
thing else.
! I went to the town of Metz a few
days past and it surely was a fine
trip. After we passed through the
town of Contains the country was
very fine, 1t had not been shot to
pieces. The road all the way was
camaouflaged and the trees that grew
beside the road had been cut and
mined SO in case of retreat they they
could retard the progress of the pur-
suers. The roads are all built for mill
itary purposes, also the towns. AS we
passed we saw many labor battalions
at work tearing down all Of the barb
wire entanglements, etc.
The city Of Metz hadn't been shelletl
but had been bombed by airplanes. The
people of Metz treated US very nicely.
As the American soldier was a rare
sight, they just stood and gazed at us
We passed and didn't seem to resent
our being there. Many Of the stores
hotels, ETC., were run by Germans
Everything seemed to be very plenti-
full, though of course prices were
rather high.
After we entered the Lorraine coun-
| try We saw many German monuments
that had not been torn down, but ]
think they are down by this time In
going from place to place we some
times find small bit of woods and ii
looks very pretty in contrast to the
shell torn portions that are SO COM
mon here.
is over. for we have about 25, 900 Ger
man prisoners at work and a few days
ago 1000 Russians, that the Germans
had as prisoners, were sent here. They
surely are an awful looking class of
people. Very few of them have enough
clothes to keep them warm and they
Twill give you anything they have for a
piece of bread. Yesterday I gave one
of them just a piece Of bread with
some oleo and a piece of meat I could
! not eat You should have seen him !,
Il never saw a dog act so hungry as
he did. From their looks they surely
did receive some very harsh treatment
from the Boche.
When we first came to this sector
we were attached TO the 26th division

BOTANY BAY CONNECTS.

September 1 is the anniversary, a notable one. of the first specimen of the labor of the British convicts at Botany Bay, Australia. In 1796 a quantity of rope which they had made was shipped to England, and brought into the office of the secretary of state at London. The rope was two inches thick. For more than two de- cades the Parliament of Great Bri- tain had been troubled by the ques- tion, What shall England do with her criminals?" Transportatio for felons had been decided upon. Men and women had been shipped to Bo- tany Bay. And Botany Bay was made a definite penal colony in 17S7. To odd, mysterious, far-away Australia the world is waking up. To this awak- ening the superb nettle of the An Zacs," the fighting regiments ir the Great War, from Australia, hos com tributed no little. They were a resist less force against the Hun.
