SHORT SESSION POSSIBLE.

Close observers of the legislatures of
recent years perceive at the end of
three weeks work by the present
Legislature that short session is
possible. No legislation requiring much
time has yet appeared The bin reor-
ganizing the highway department, the
bills providing for the testing of cattle
and increasing the appropriations for
farm bureau work have not been in
introduced but their introduction early
this week is promised There is an i'm
portant bill regarding conservation
said to be in the making. Beyond this
no important legislation is in sight.
Every days delay in getting these bills
before the legislature should initiate
against them because such delay in
ereases the expenses of the Legislature
itself and thus increases the budget
that must be made up for appropria-
tons from the state treasury
There is a strong desire among all
the members to get the work done and
get home. This sentiment is expressed
by the members obliged to stay in
Montpelier over the long weekend re-
cesses and was the universal sentiment
at the gathering of the chairmen of the
various committees at the Pavilion
last week as the guests of b. c. Buxton
the member from Middletown Springs
These men are trying to arrange a
legislative program that will expedite
the work of the session. Determination
to prevent the introduction of miscel-
laneous bills after the expiration of the
time for Introducing bills-the second
Tuesday in February-was also ex-
pressed. These men are leaders in
legislative work and will have little
patience with any who delay the
presentation of bills for political pur-
poses.
With this spirit gathering force and
with the absence Of much important
legislation the hope of short and
active session of the legislature grows
Not only does it seem probable but
with the organized effort being put
forth to make it short, long session
would seem inexcusable.

There are ten children living in

Dear Father:
Well, Pape, I guess you think
an, dead by now, but am very much
alive, although l have been sick
quite 3 bit since l have been lover
here, but am feeling fine Just now.
I got letter from An the other day
and he said he was in good health.
/ saw in the paper where his divis-
ion would soon sail for the States.
/ don't know when will get to go
back, but sure am anxious to get
back Well Papa, I don't know Of
any news of any interest, but could
write a book on my experience since
/ have been in the army and espe-
cially since 1 have been over heres
l was up close to the front where l
could hear the big guns shooting
most all the time and saw lots of
Boche airplanes in action. also saw
them bring down one French obser-
-vation balloon.

From Andrew Doris in France

France, December 1, 1918.
Mr.. A. ]. Doris,
Hayti, Missouri.
Dear Papa:
AS l haven't heard from you for
quite awhile, l thought would
write you and let you know I am
well and hope you are the same.
Well, Papa, guess I will be home
in very short time. We all thought
that we were going to sail last week,
but we didn't, and we were sure dis
appointed. think that we have a
chance of being home by New Years,
since the was is over, as they say in
French. "legare est finis." am very
anxious to go back. When I was at
home, before l enlisted in the army.
I never realized how much I thought
of Hayti, because I was never away
from home any longer than a week
at one time, but now am so far from
home and so long, lam sure 1 realize
what a home means. am sure i
will never regret coming over here,
because 1t has been a great exper-
ience to boy of my age.
Well, Papa. last week l was pro-
NOTED from a second class musician
to first class. will now draw
$52.sO a month, which is $3.50 more
than before.
guess Walter has been discharg-
ed by now, hasn't he? don't think
he will re-enlist.
I haven't heard from Ward for
quite while, but l am expecting to
get letter from him any day. l
guess will beat him back.
Papa, three days from today, or
the fourth of this month, will make
one years service for me. 1t seems
nearly like five.
The seventh of last month was my
eighteenth birthday. On that day
we got news for the first time that
the firing had been ceased. All of
IellOWS Sdlu Iudt Was Soou itCN .
on my birthday.
Papa, while I was writing this let
ter, our mail came in, and one of the
boys pitched me the Herald, and 1
have just opened it and saw where
Aunt Ella has died. I sure am shock
ed, as we'll as surprised. 1 knew she
was sick, but didn't know how bad
sick she was. I am very sorry l
couldn't be there to attend the fun
eral. My feelings are indispensable
in words.
Papa, think we will get paid some
time this week. I hope so, because
I have lent nearly all OF my money
out. When they pay me, and / col
lect all of the money I have lent out,
I think 1 will have quite little sum.
Well, Papa, I have run out of
news, so answer soon and tell me
all the news.
Your loving son,
ANDREW.
