Billie Wants TC Come Back
 Home

MT. and Mrs. William Bledsoe are wearing the smile that won't come off, these days, the occasion for the smiles being the receipt of several belated letters from their soldier son Billie"
 One letter states that the Skag- way boy is now on the banks of the Rhine. having mushed from a small village, Posse, in FraRce, where he was located at the time of the sign ing of the armistice, on through a corner ot Belgium, thence through LuxemDurg and on to the banNs of the Rhine.
 This letter has several hastily drawn sketches, and they all show that Eillie is hungry. Not the common hunger of the bell! kind" as Service puts it, but hungry for mother and father and friends and all that a home stands for. It is true that he pictures himself in q dream eating pies and cakes, and even joshes when he asks how they would like to have him bring back a Dutch girl. Billie then draws a picture of a buxom lass dragging him along by the hand.
 Billie says that "our division had very little rest during the war, so We are in hopes of getting re- leased at an early date" Again he says T have had a good many eX- periences while over here but l an certainly glad that it is all over" In closing he says, tell mother to make up a lot Of jelly, fruit cake, pies, etc." and then he draws an imaginary picture of very cake hungry Billie with satls- fled. smiles carefully guiding huge pieces of pie and cake into a huge mouth. E. |
 Oh, our boys are well fed "over there" but evidently Billie Bledsoe is tired of beans and canned Willie and wants a dinner cooked by Mother!
