Dear Dad:


Dear Dad
Just thought I'd pen few lines to-
night before going to bed to let you
know am all o. X. and feeling fine.
Sorry to say we have had to move
from our fine home Of few days ago
Our old enemy the boche. made things
just trifle too interesting for us to
try and live peaceably there. Conse-
quently we took little trip around
behind a hill and have gone to house
keeping in a pine woods. Our present
quarters are not so bad, though moth
ing like the last place. However,
don't think we will stay here very
long.
| am going to describe that last
place to show you how pretty we are
setting. Evidently the place was own
ed by well-to-do furniture manufac-
turer. 1t had a factory, two nice
homes and two "several-family" hous-
es. The place made sort of nina
ture town by itself and setting just be-
tween two fair sized towns. The
houses were all intact and had fire
places in nearly every room. In the
old factory we found a lot Of cane
bottom and back furniture all done
but veneering. We Immediately took
this to our bilIets and it was the first
I've sat in chair in some time. Can
you picture an aristocratic French fac
tory owner living in all his glory in
that place? Can you picture bunch
of American troops making mighty
good use of those warm. dry houses
Well, must say it was the best since
/ arrived in France
Today it was officially announced to
us that Austria has been granted an
armistice. Events are surely happen
ing rapidly these days and the out
look is quite rosy" How long will
it take Germany to give up is the ques-
ton We ask each other. The general
opinion is that it won't be long. The
news of the New Verdun-Coast often
sive is trickling through tonight and
guess things are going very well
late spring. Time will tell however.
My mail has surely been coming
fine lately. Had seven letters in one
day. I got some "peacher" from Aun-
tie and Laura as we'll as you. No
papers have reached me yet, though,
They will come in time. My but it
does seem good to hear from you all
again and to get some kodak snaps.
Don't forget to put a stick Of Yucatan
in your letters and some blank writ
ing paper.
Well, I think I'm about out Of news
for this time. Write often and tell me
all the news. Hoping this finds you
both well and happy I am. D.
Lovingly,
ROGER

Attend Hearing on Big
Project Here.

Tacoma officials are going to boost
for the canal from Olympia to Grays
Harbor to give an outlet to the Sound
from this section to the south and get
away from the stormy straits to the
north.
Commissioner Harrison brought
the matter to the attention of the
Tacoma city council Saturday and the
council appointed City Engineer J. c.
Marley to be at Olympia December
Is and represent Tacoma in the hear
ing to be given on the subject by the
federal government.
Maybe they can get this project
through now for the benefit of the

congressman. Tacoma has no con-
gresham. so we cannot do anything,
but they may be able to accomplish
something. We certainly are for it,
