Seattle Star. Jan. FL see a lot Of
bunk in the different dailies about the
way soldiers are being treated in the
army. From what is published any
one not better informed would thing
we were being put to bed by the nurses
and fed on chuck cooked by French
chef. However. such Is not the case.
l will try to explain. A while back. an
evening paper of Seattle printed the
following article:
Soldiers at Camp Lewis are well
taken care of at night, as each bar
rack is gone over every night several
times by physician, and If any Of the
boys are not covered properly, they
cover them, and If they are cold for the
want of more cover, more blankets are
ordered Immediately"
Let me say that is nice for the public
to read. but it did not happen, so it's n
lie, pure and simple. Another contain
ed the following at Thanksgiving :
Large numbers of the soldiers were
given four days off so they could spend
Thanksgiving day with their folks"
But the passes were only issued to Il
few of each company and they didn't
get away in time to get home on
Thanksgiving day, if they lived much
further away than Tacoma. Now they
tell about our furloughs for Christmas.
Yes, II few pets got furloughs, about 8
per cent of the boys, and they got eight
days, but they couldn't get away on
Monday or Tuesday No. they only got
away about So'clock on the evening of
the oath, and they must be back by
reveille on the 2nd of January, so they
won't be home for Christmas or New
Year either. as they will be on the road
going home or coming back to camp on
both holidays. Little things like that
make us love army life. Here is an
other good one: An order came out
last night that hereafter all soldiers
will be prohibited from soliciting rides
from persons in automobiles on the
Pacific Highway or other roads, as IL
is a form Of begging, and disgrace tc
the uniform, and that the military po'
lice will place under arrest any soldier
caught asking for ride. | am of the
opinion that it's more Of a disgrace tC
the country that the soldiers are not
either paid more, or else allowed t.
ride for n cent n mile.
l suppose some patriotic prOfiteel
made Il howl because some soldier ha(
the audacity to stop him on the roat
when he was trying to break the spect
limit or else the bus company put ii
Il complaint that good money is beinl
saved by the soldiers which ii SHOULD
get. 1t is shame that soldier
should disgrace the uniform by askin,
for ride when he gets the large an(
juicy sum of S2I from his country.
Another nice thing all the soldiers
appreciate is that they are given
half holiday on Wednesday. Did
say holiday? Well that is what the,
call it, but at dinner they read an or
der that there will be foot ball game
at Lewis Field at about > o'clock ant
that all men not on duty will be read,

have cleared out.
Everywhere the French people are
moving back to their old places, some
Of which they have not seen since the
war started. and great many of these
places are nothing but heap of stones
now. Many villages have been totally
demolished, with not a single house
left in condition to be lived in.
I'VE were in this town of Blercourt
several weeks ago, and at that time

IA sight worth seeing. and | would not
have missed it for the world. l have
been over some of the ground that
was the scene of conflict during the
famous battle Of Verdun, and such a
sight you can hardly imagine. One
cannot find n space large enough to
stand on that has not been turned over
by shell, and the whole landscape in
places seems to have had its nose put
out of joint.
I'VE left Clermont July for the
front, detraining at Meaux, and since
that time have been getting around on
our own legs so to speak.
Our guns opened up July Is on the
ChateauThierry sector, the first Ameri-
can heavy artillery to get into action,
and they pounded away constantly I'M
til peace was declared, making a most
enviable record.
From ChateauThierry front we
conveyed to the st. Mihiel sector. and
from there to the present front, where
we went into action September %, and
was Mt it until the very close. Three
planes were brought down right in our
front yard. so to speak. One Of the
machines collapsed and came down end
over end from a great height. 1t was
reported to be a boche machine. An
other boche aviator was killed directly
over our heads, though at quite a
good height. His machine was making
circle at the time he was shot, and
1t continued to 80 round and round
after he had lost control. gradually
coming closer to the ground. after the
fashion of corkScrew. The last time
around the machine wars only few
feet over our heads. and as it reached
the other side OF the circle ii hit a low
hill headon. throwing dirt and parts OF
the machine into the air and rolling
Ter something like $50 feet. The ma
chine was total wreck. as was also
the aviator, who was strapped to the
ruins Of his machine when we arrived
on the scene.

Cowboy band, with which organization
he became very proficient on the slide

new members. their military band has
the same personnel as when leaving
Boise The letter follows:

same as before peace was declared and
i'll others they are much better. Any
way, we are In favor of peace on prop

SAINT JUNIORS
BREAK EVEN
to South Amboy Scouts,
But Defeat Catholic Club

On Sunday afternoon before a
crowd that surpassed any gathering
that ever watched a Junior game, the
Saint Jrs. went down to their fifth
defeat of the season, when they ross
ed bats with the hefty Boy Scouts Of
South Amboy, and were defeated by a
score of 8-S. This is the second de-
feat which the Boy Scouts have melted
out to their strong opponents, while
the Saints trimmed the Boy Scouts but
once. Whether another game will be
played is yet to be decided.
The Saints started In the initial in
ming scoring the first run which look
ed very promising, but after the third
inning the tide began to change and
the scouts went over the top, render
ing four uns, making the score Al.
In the fourth the Saints were allowed
n more run, making the score Az,
then things were quiet until the sew
enth, when the Scouts began to feel
Jacobson and added four more runs,
followed by another in the eighth. In
the ninth the Saints went over the
plate for the last time. The final
score being 8-3.
jacobson started for the Saints, and
although he held the Boy Scouts away
from the bases for the first few In
nings, they soon got to his delivery,
and just at the time that the Saint
inf1elders were making their usual err
rors. Brownmiller pitched the eighth
INC Stocked the ninth. The Scouts
secured eight hits off Jacobson IN
seven innings and scored eve of
their runs off him. The other one was
scored on Brownmiller.

The battery, which will probably be

1 am almost certain, Mr.. Mullen
that such a combination of ball toss
ers, who have appeared before the
fans in your city on many occasions
are surely worthy of performing
against your stars and without
doubt the public will clamor for a
match between the two teams.

Juniors trimmed another Of their
Junior rivals when they met the

of the city by the cor of 1874 on

widely scattered hits and secured his

while his teammates were betting
Kausup and Bonalsky, a Pioneer
pitcher, for sixteen clean wallops.
The Catholic Club was slightly re-
enforced by the addition OF several
Pioneer players in their lineup, but
this addition did not make any no.

WAREHOUSE NINE

Defeat Machinists, 14-2 in A. S.
& R. League Game Friday
Standing of Teams.

Wow. Did you see the Warehouse
crew put 1t all over the Machinists
in Fridays game of the American
Smelling & Refining League played
on the Lead Works diamond by a
score of 14-2?
From the very opening of the story
the Warehouse combination COM
menced to pile up the runs, two in the
second and six in the third with SIX
more In the fifth. The struggle only
lasted for seven chapters n many
have begun to wonder just what
would have happened to the Machin-
lists if the contest went to full number
of prescribed innings.
One of the main features of the
"hornswoggling'' was the many err
rors contributed by the losers. They
booted the leather pill about the lot
seven times. These misplays gave the
Warehouse boys the opportunity OF
running up their high score.
This win has showed the Warehouse
team up the ladder a bit and are now
fourth in rank.
