Him For Weeks.
Him For Weeks

Failing to hear from her son, Hous-
ton Lamb, for weeks and weeks, and
fearing some harm had overtaken
h'yn, lis mother was made happy one
day this week when she received the
following letter from him, dated Blu
gel, Germany, May 18th.
My Dear Mother:
i received your last letter a few
days ago and was glad to hear frorn
you, | am well and am getting a
long fine. We expect to start home
the 10Th of May, SO we will be in the
States pretty soon. We have been
pretty busy for the past month or SO,
getting ready to get on the gang
plank at the port of embarkation.
This is probably the last time / will
be able to send you letter as The
regimental postoffice closes the 18th
of May and we cannot mail any more
letters after then But | will keep
in mind what happens every day so
that l may tell you when / get home.
On May 1st | went to Bern Castle,
Germany, where the Goth Division
headquarters are and saw the Goth
Division circus, and it certainly was
good. The Dutch were surprised o
see circus there. guess it is the
first one they ever saw.
Since then have been busy getting
my equipment ready for the return
home. We have had field inspection
pretty near every day for the las
two weeks; that is, we had to take
our roll and packs out to the drill
grounds and lay it out for the officers
to inspect The last week or so it
has been nice and warm and it has
not rained for sometime, but tonight
it is cloudy and | expect it to rain
before morning.
am glad all of you are well and
hope that none of you will be sick. All
the boys here are happy and well and
are anxious to start home. We think
that either the 9th or 7th Division
will relieve us, so we should not wor-
ry about who stays here.
Well, today is Mothers Day, and
every soldier has been asked to write
to his mother, SO | am trying to do
It. This is about all / can think of
so will close Wishing you all all
kinds of good luck, and lots of love,
Your loving son,
Pvt. Houston Lamb.

where's Velvet Tobacco gone?
Those same folks inquired, when dis

mellowed, friendly tobacco, which
had made them and their pipes side
partners for years.
Where was Velvet. Ask the Red
Cross man or the "Y" man. Ask
the Salvation army lassie. Ask the

Corps that were responsible for
more beef, more bullets and more
tobacco" for the boys undes the tin

vet was not on some of the dealer
shelves. It was on the ships, in the
cantonment, in the billets, and the
trenches. But Velvet is now wear

discharge.
