enough of that to do any good 1 am

We had a pleasant Christmas here
altho II could have been livelier. We
had all the turkey we could eat. Mr..

this regiment, went to Paris in q truck
and bought our dinner for u.s. By US.

little room in a shot up building. but
fixed 1t up pretty for the occasion.
We wired It with electric lights and
then covered the walls and ceiling
with evergreen It did lock real
pretty. We had lady guests for two
meals that day. Mr.. Eastman had
brought five American girls from
Paris, and we had two of them They
were real nice American girls, and it
was sure a treat for US to be able to
visit with them They seemed to en-
joy it too. They had only been over
for short time. and had not been out
of Paris before coming to our regi-
ment.''
Corporal Light Cited.
Altho previous newspaper mention
has been made that Corp. John Light
had been cited for bravery in action.
the first hint as to the cause of this
| citation comes in a letter from
| Sergeant Terrfll.
Corporal Light was in the second
wave that went over the top on the
morning of September 29. A shell got
! his whole squad. Altho he was
wounded SO badly himself that he was
| in the hospital from that date until
after the middle of December. his
1 wounds did not prevent him from
carrying each one of his eight men
back to the dressing station. as they
were in worse shape than he was. He
was then sent to the evacuation hos
