a good bath and a new outfit OF clothes
which we needed badly. Here is
where l was located when l wrote you
October 26th and where an awful bat
tie was fought in 1916 between the Ger
mans and the French and where the
Germans were never able to break
through the French lines.
We rested up here ten days and then
rolled our packs and started moving
toward the front in support OF the
division on the line ahead of us. We
passed over the same ground we had
fought upon. We were camped i'll the
Belleau woods three days where one OF
the hardest battles of the war was
fought. The Americans took h
woods five times before they could hold
it. Here they got large number of
prisoners the day before the armistice
was signed We had moved up in the
support of the 9Th division and was
armistice was signed when the firing
ceased.
1t sure was a jubilee to us when the
big guns ceased their booming. The
127th Infantry was in the lines at the
time helping a brigade of the 9th
division which had gotten badly shot
up.
After the firing ceased we moved
down to small town about two kilO-
meters from where we camped. we
were there two days and then packed
up and moved to Loupy, relieving the
9Th division on Nov. IA. Here we did
patrol duty until Nov. II.
We then started out on our victor
iOus march to the Rhine travelling
through rain and mud with our little
old packs upon our backs walking
every step of the way. On Nov. 81 we
crossed over the line into Belgium and
stopped there that night, resuming
our march the next day.
We crossed the Belgium line into
Luxembourg making our stay at Ech-
teinach on the Siene river that divides
Luxembourg from ermany. We
stayed here a week spending Thanks
giving at that place. Sunday morning
December l at Z 100 o'clock we crossed
the river and placed our feet upon Ger
man soil and started our grand and
glorious march through Germany to
the Rhine Had some very fine
| weather most of the way. 1t was a
long, tiresome journey being distance
of 3 kilometers or 1877 American miles
Our journey was a very tedious one
as we could not advance very fast at
| times because the Germans would not
| be far enough ahead. Quite often we
would get to the top of hill and see
| the Germans marching over another
hill ahead.
We went through some very nice
| country and cities. December 18th we
reached the bridge head ON the Rhine
river and crossed just at II 80 a. m
advancing until we got here to Glad
bach, about Z kilometers from the
river and just on the edge of the Rhine

Valley Forge, they found little or no
shelter. Even Washington slept for
several days under canvas. The SOL
diers were set to work at once to build
shelters to protect them against the
intense cold. A prize of $12 was Of
fered by Washington for the first hut
to be completed in the quickest and
most workmanlike manner. The huts
were built of logs cut in the neighbor-
ing forest and at first covered with
canvas and later with straw.

MINING CIRCLE PREPARING
SUGGESTED STATE LAWS

The committee OF the Mining cir
Gle OF the University club has COM
pleted a draft OF a revised mining law
for the state OF Texas which viii be
introduced IN the state legislature at
this session This draft will come I'D
for discussion at the special meeting
Of the circle at the University club
Saturday night The draft follows
the United States mining law for the
location OF quartz claims. leaving out
the words rock I'm place" The pur-
pose OF this is so that such a location
will cover placer claims also. thus
making II unnecessary to have a
placer mine law. The law Of extra
lateral rights as allowed in the United
States law is expressly expected to
save litigation.
The draft provides for the classifi-
cation Of mineral lands by the state
land commission a right now per-
formed by that official. It also pro-
vides for a five percent royalty on the
net value Of the output at the point
Of production; /. e.. on the net at the
mine. less the transportation charges.
All classes Of minerals can be located
under this draft II made a law except
coal and oil. but in includes building
stone, saline deposits. gypsum, etc.
