This is the third of a series of let
ters picturing the life of those in the
vicinity of the Marne valley from
April 20. 1917, to August 4, 1918.
Mildred Aldrich, the author, gives
us an intimate account of the months
from the time that the United States
went into the war heart and soul, to
that time when her entering began
to be felt by the French people. The
arrival of the American boys, their
behavior in the land of "the emotional
French, who are really less emotional
than we are" and the thrill accom-
panying their success as they went
"over the hilltop"
The book is a memorable testimony
to the rich sympathy between the
French and American peoples.

WHEN WE WERE NINE YEARS OLD

Almost next in Importance to Christ
mas when we were in grade school
was Valentines Day. Valentines Day
afforded the opportunity for favoring
ones girl with an elaborate con-
coction of lace paper and cupids and
hearts, and for getting even with an
enemy by sending him or her comic
of the most insulting type.
Between these two extremes was a
general class of friends for whom We
usually invented our own valentines
with colored paper or crayons. These
were toiled over for at least week
before Valentines Day and the rank
of each individual in ones esteem was
measured by the amount and energy
expended upon them.
Valentines Day, originated by the
generous St. Valentine who set aside
that day in which to give a present to
each of his friends, is a day that might
well be observed by grownups. At
least it is a day that will not soon be
overlooked by children.

This book is written by a COM
mander in the United States Navy
whose name is not given. Its aim, in
the writer's own words, lis to legi-
mately give a bit of the pungency of
naval life
John Migg, clever and plucky, pre-
fers the Navy to college. Entering
the Navy as a seaman, he braves all
its hardships and dangers with a
grim smile. He wins an appointment
to Annapolis and as midshipman
spends summer of hard work and
adventure in a cruise on the tug Wam-
pun.
The outbreak of the war finds Migg
an ensign. During the war he ex-
periences life aboard destroyer. con-
voy cruiser and battleship. TIE serves
as division officer, staff officer, gun
merry officer, first lieutenant, assistant
to the chief engineer, navigator and
captain, and finally is put on the ad-
mirals staff. In this capacity he helps
serve as the head of a feet in action
against the enemy.
The book has its touch of senti-
ment. After having achieved success
and recognition in his profession, Migg
decides it's good to have someone
waiting when his last cruise is DONE"
and he finds her in his boyhood sweet
heart.

DON'T WORRY ABOUT TAXES

Some epople are worried about the
debt of the Government. What if the
Government does owe twenty or twen-
ty-five billion dollars? The bonds are
distributed among millions of its own
people and although the money for the
interest will come out of the taxes we
pay. it will return to us, for the bond
holders are nearly the same as the
taxpayers.
Much of the money represented by
bonds would not have been saved If it
had not been for the war, which was a
valuable lesson to US as to what we
can do in the way Of thrift.
A tax on some luxuries won't hurt
US. and sacrifices of this kind may
turn out to our advantage.
