 My dear mother: This will no doubt reach you between Christmas and New Years. We are about ei miles in this country. and you would be surprised to see how nice these people treat us. They sem to think nothing is too good for us. and the prices are much more reasonable than in France or Luxemburg. In Belgium they would not charge us for any euiaiS udtOly, Uut thcy Hdu dDoOluCSIy nothing to sell us.

Tomorrow we will be picked up ty the train and moved ur another 25 or 30 miles, and guard some more bridges. More bridges in this coun try than l ever saw before
 Natives Good Cooks.
 "The station agents wife is cooking supper for us.. and believe me, these people can cock. There is really nc need of guard on these bridges, something for us to do.
 "We have had exceptionally good weather so far, is raining a little now, and about time for the snow to fly, that is. the Dutchmen say so. But this winter will be much easier on us than last. for we are living un- der shelter this time. and with fires, so you see,. you have no occasion whatever to worry about me. Of course it will be some time yet be- fore l can get home, but it is certain now, and before it was rather doubt full at times. Must go on post, will finish this later.
 Relief Appreciated. "Well. l have been relieved now af- ter two hours on post. Have haa supper. which consisted of a potato salad, and Dutch sausage, jam, but ter, bread, and coffee, and believe me it was good.
 It has stopped raining and looks very much like it will snow We are now about S1 kilometers from Cob , lenz, Germany. which is the town or the Rhine river that we are bound for guess we will get to ride the rest of tie way. folng our little guard duty on the way.
 Many Troops Marching.
