me above paragraphs will give
you an idea relative to our travels
in England and France. They are
not as explicit as l would like to
write them, 'but you know when one
undertakes to write in detail about
trip such as ours it takes quite a
bit Of time and space. Then, too.
If | wrote you all know about it
there would be nothing to tell when
we get back home again.
MY health has been as good as IL
possibly could be all the while since
we have been in France, and know
that once we get home again will
have been greatly benefited by my
many experiences of various kinds.
We will very probably leave Cha
teauvillain within the next two or
three days for small village some
35 kilometers from here. Am not
very anxious for the move, as we
are very comfortably billeted just
now. Have very nice quarters and
| are billeted near the village of Cha
teauvillain. Chateauvillain is one of
the prettiest little villages that we
| have been through since we have
been in France, although there Is
but little amusement here for an
American soldier.
Have been having q more or less
easy, pleasant time since we have
been over here, but now the hardest
part Of all confronts us, and that
is sitting around waiting to be sent
across. We hear, Of course, wild
lumors as to when and where we
shall set sail for home, but, person
ally, l believe that one would be
making foolish guess to even think
of looking forward to any certain
date.
| The weather here has been excep-
t1onally good for the past several
weeks. We had some rain yesterday
and last night, but it. was not very
cold. Have had no snow, but the
ground is usually covered with frost
each morning. The sun shines out,
however, and soon melts the frost
away.
There is quite a bit Of wild game
in this section Of France, such as
deer, wild hog, ducks, quail, large
belgian rabbits, fox and many other
varieties. Several mcmbers of our
OUTFIT have been out hunting, but
so far none of them has brought
back anything but couple of rab-
! bits 4Asid ducks. Some Of them were
in party that killed wild hog or
so, but none of our men have been
SO lucky.
Have written just about all there
seems to be to write, so will not
take up more of the censors time.
Am hoping that will have another
letter from you in our next mail.
With lots OF love, and very best
wishes to all, am,

Big Prices Paid At
Recent Holstein Sale
C. DOOLITTL DISPOSES OF HERD
OF PURE BRED ANIMALS AT
PUBLIC SALE

Record prices for Pope County were
paid at the dispersal sale of pure bred
Holstein cattle at the Doolittle farm
yesterday. This sale had attracted a
number of outside buyers and good
prices were realized for the splendid
animals offered. Mr.. Doolittle mad
spent considerable time and effort in
raising this fine herd and the prices
paid at this sale showed that he had
done something worth while. Mr.. J.
e. Mack of Fort Atkinson, Wis, an
auctioneer of national reputation in
the Holstein line, cried the sale.
The total amount realized for %
head was $3.50, an average of $426.5O
per head. The IL females put up for
sale brought $7,845, an average of
S461.47. The top price of the sale was
paid by the Spalding Company of
Warren, Mimi, for a yearling heifer
by Sir Pietertje Ormsby Mercedes
41st, for which they paid $500. This
was an animal of exceptional breeding
such as is seldom found in small
herd, her sire being one of the great
est of the breed and had been sold for
$4,000.
1t is with much regret that Mr.. Doc
little parts with this splendid herd,
but failing health and business con-
ditions make it necessary that he
should do so. 1t is moreover a distinct
loss to the live stock industry of Pope
County.-Glenwood Herald.

treaty have been delivered to Baron

demands for modification of the treaty
on the surrender of Germans charged
with crimes against International war
fare and the return Of prisoners. 1t
agrees to consider the economic ef-

the sinking of warships in the Scapa
Flow on Germany in "a spirit of equity

The note warns Germany, "for the
last time," that denunciation Of the
armistice would give the Allied armies
all latitude for necessary military
measures.
