miles each day. Believe me, was
glad to get away from that place. While
there, eight Of us slept in a large up
stairs room of a farm house. OF
course il was not furnished, but we did
have tick filled with straw, so sleep
ing was fine. Every night | would go
downstairs, or rather down the ladder.
for there were no stairs, and buy e
glass of milk from the lady for ( five
cents. This enjoyed very much, al
though we had hard time making her
understand what we wanted. We had
to draw a picture of cow before she
understood what milk was.
September 29th We left Sassay, again
hiking ten miles, and, yes, We took
another ride on the famous railroad
riding until October LIST, when we got
off and hiked few miles to Jazenville
where was assigned to Company E.

There were no more than a dozen per-
sons in this town, as the Germans had
blown it to pieces. There was hardly
a house there that had missed being
shelled.
October 9th, just after supper, We
started on hike to Toul, about twenty
miles, arriving there October 9th, and
here we drilled until October 18th
when again We travelled, but this time
in auto trucks, arriving at camp hid
in the woods. We stayed here until
October 2lst, when we hiked twelve
miles to another woods. and here await
ed orders to move to the front, which
came October 30th. We hiked sever
miles that night. then we had to dig
holes in the banks Of the road to pro-
tect ourselves from the shells-and this
is how spent my birthday, sitting in a
dug-out watching the shells burst
The next day was wounded. So this
is brief description of my travels.
Must close now. Hope you are al

LAST week mayors and other Of
fcials Of a considerable number of
towns and cities in West Virginia as
sembled in Charleston and appeared
before the Legislature to urge change
in the law that forbids higher NUM-
cipal tax than IS cents on the hundred
dollars. They presented figures show
ing that this limit is now too low, and
they ask that the maximum levy be
fixed at so cents.
There should be no hesitancy in
passing this bill Those municipalities
that were able to get along on levy Of
IS cents five or ten years ago cannot do
so now The high cost Of living is felt
just as st--asiy by municipalities as il
is by individuals, il not more so, and
an increase in revenues is an absolute
necessity. No family can now live OF
what il cost it to live on a half dozer
years ago, and neither can a town OF
city. The raising Of the limit doesn't
mean that the levy must be increased
and il any corporation is in sucl
fortunate circumstances as to be able
to avoid it, there's no compulsion abou
the measure.
