Derman, Germany,
 Dec. Is, 1918

Dear Mama:
 1 will write you a few lines to- night to let you know that 1 am we'll and enjoying life fine. The reason 1 haven't written sooner is because I have been very busy and when 1 did have time I did not have the paper to write so you can understand the delay.
 When 1 wrote to you last I was in southern France at re placement camp but have since returned to my regiment. 1 just returned in time to start on the big hike into Germany. We have now been in Germany about two weeks and 1 haven't the least idea how much longer we vill have to stay here but I am hop ing it won't be long because I am not in love with this part of the country. The U. s. A. will sure look like heaven after stay ing in this country.
 We are nov billeted in vil> lage, Derman. situated in a beau tiful valley and the hillsides on each side are covered with grape orchards and they look beautiful on account of the way they are terraced with rock. I have a picture of the town but it isn t very good, nevertheless it will give you some idea of how the country looks.
 Another boy and I are staying with a German family and we like the place fine and the old lady treats us good. Last night she gave us some jelly. butter, bread and coffee. and tonight she gave us coffee and potatoes.
 We can get some good Rhine wine here but 1 don't guess TT get drunk as I never have.
 You ought to see the German bread. It sure is tough looking stuff and it IS as heavy as lead The old man here where we stay is the baker. I don't see how people can eat it day after day. would like to send you a loaf fol a souvenir but I can't
 We'll 1 must close as I want tt write other letters tonight. With lots of love froln your sor

Letters From Our Boys Over There

LetttIS rLUin OuI D0yS UVeT mere
 Jan. 10, 1919 Dear Mother:
 Win write you a few lines this eve to let you know that I am still well and hope this will find all the folks we'll.
 I've just reported back to my company from the hospital and am now in Germany. I have not received any mail since October for when it came to the company and as I was not. with the com pany, it was sent to the Central toffice. but I expect to get it soon and am anxious to hear from home.
 The last letter I wrote said I expected to be home by April. The reason I said it was because
The Carlisle independent., 1919-02-13

when right after the armistice was signed I heard at the hospi- tai that the first division would be the first to go home as it was the first over here, but as it IS now in the Occupation army, I don't know when 1 will get to go back but hope it won't be long. 1 guess 1 had better close for this time as I don't know much to write. so goodbye and with the best of wishes.
 From your son,

yesterday and also one sent in October. It was sent to ny old company, and the one dated 2S 313 beat it. 1 also got letter from Oscar yesterday, he was at the port of em barkation when he wrote 14th of this month. Gee but I'm glad he's getting home so quickly. He said he never got to go to the front. I am glad he didn't and he had better be, for he might not have been as lucky as I. 1 was in it from Nov. 1st to the finish, and didn't get a scratch. but 1 saw a lot of fellows bumped of, and lot more wounded. My company went over the top with the infan- try on Nov. 3, and believe me the Germans gave us heavy artillery fire. 1 saw men blown ten feet in the air, arms and legs were scattered everywhere. The or ders were to stop for nothing, you couldn't stop to bind up no one and believe me it was hard to walk by the wounded boys beg ging for help, but we had Jerry going and couldn t afford to stop; we drove him about 15 kilome- ters, or something like 10 or II miles that day. The Germans stopped us just before dark, so we had to lay behind our guns and watch for counter attacks, but he never~came over after us. He held the line until near day light, and then beat it as hard as he could go.
 On that drive we got heavy ar tillery, ammunition and all kinds of war material, but it is all over now, and 1 have seen sights 1 will never forget and am prouo of my experience. Il you want to find out if a fellow has been to the front, just ask him what kind of noise the gas shells make.
 Say sure had a fine dinner today. The menu consisted of fresh pork, potatoes, beans, dressing and gravy, cake, pie, maple syrup, fresh grapes, nuts and wine. Believe me the boys are celebrating, the Go. has couple of barrels for today. You see wine is so cheap over here. it is the only thing France has plenty of. There's lots of other things to make you drunk but 1 don't fool with them. This is cer. tainly an immoral country. A fellow sure meets temptation here, but 1 am leaving then alone pretty wellso far.
 That sounded good to me to hear about Dee killing seve, ducks but you see he had good gun, and well trained if it hasn't gotten out of practice since I left. I'm glad he keeps it cleaned up, use doesn't hurt it but rust would eat it out.
 Pm certainly glad you have gotten the cotton out, I was afraid i5 would waste in the field.
 I hope you can stay where you are and I'm glad Will Mooten is going to live close to us. I will have some fun out of him when 1 get back for 1 intend to take life easy for awhile.
 You ask me why 1 didn't write longer letters. Before the war was over l didn't think much about home and besides I didn't want to write something that would he cut out. for fear it
 would worry you.
 1 wrote you letter Sunday complaining of no mail, 1 had on ly had two letters from you since 1 had been in. France, and
 they were dated about the first of October, but I have received
 two since then. You see the
 darkest hour is just before day.

MAY RECEIVE
BONUS BLANKS
ANY TIME NOW

Owing to a misunderstanding which
arose on the part(of the bonus board,
the receiving Of the blanks 70 rapplr-
cation has been delayed, according
to Secretary Victor Gies of the East
Grand Forks post Of the American
Legion. but it is expected that they
will be here almost any day now and
will be promptly distributed to the
service men in this vicinity.
In order to avoid disorder, and to
see that the blanks are properly filled
in, q committee will be appointed
soon by the local post with whom the
applicants will meet and be instructed
as to the proper filling out of the
application. Each Service man must
apply in person for the blank, and will
be then directed to the committee.
Alfred Clynch, president Of the local
post, left Monday for st. Paul to at
tend to business, and will call at the
Legion headquarters there to see
about the blanks. If they have not
already been sent, he will have them
sent Immediately. It is the opinion
Of local officers that payments Of the
bonus will be made probably as early
as the middle Of December, instead
of the first of the year as RAJ first
.renurted.
