DEAR ANNIE LAURIE: We are
two eirls 10 years old. We are madly
in love with two brothers who have
gone to fight for the freedom of man
kind in France.
We have not heard from our men
for three weeks but 1t seems years.
The last time we heard one of them
was slightly wounded and was sent to
Amiens to the hospital. We fear he
has fallen in love with some mad
amoisele. He was in the park in a
wheel chair when he wrote, so we
know he is out of danger, except from
the girls of France The other man
hasn't written since he left the trench
es for furlough in Paris.
Now dear Annie Laurie. what should
we two heart broken creatures do?
Continue our daily epistles as we feel
1t is our patriotic duty or leave them
in the lurch?

to pitch tents which they expected
any minute to be swept away by the
wind or deluged by the constant rain.

France with the Queens Westminis-
ter Rifles. He afterwards made two
transfers. first the Scottish High
landers and later to the Irish Ennis

field rather than in the hospital, and
he is proud to say that he has been
over the top three times. He saw
many times when he did not expect
TO return to the U. S. A. One day
he met a bomb just as he came out
of his dugout. and the only thing that
saved him was a tree between him
and the bomb. That was his closest
call.

was at Oxford as a Rhodes scholar
when the war broke out. it will be
remembered performed distinguished
service as one of Hoover's aids in the
relief of Belgium. He came home to
enter United States service and went
to Fortress Monroe in June. 1918 in
the coast artillery. He was made

ready to enter the officers training
school when the armistice was signed
and the men discharged. He saw a

was not with the coast artillery.

Ensign Harold -aiIard, Aviator

Ensign 61aTOtO -dudToy Avtdt0V
Ensign Harold Ballard, the son Of
Loring c. Ballard. is a naval aviator.
at present on inactive duty subject
to cali. He began his knowledge Of
flying and air navigation at Massa-
chusetts Institute of Technology with
an eight weeks course, most Of which
proved to be clumsy and unadapted
to air work when put into operation.
Other and later instruction was CIV
en- under which the men qualified as
air pilots and were sent to Key West.
Ballard went as chief petty officer
and commenced actual flying under
the training of seasoned flyers. He
learned such stunts as spiralling,
Shooting the mark" and the nose
dive. At the Pensacola station he
learned bombing and rapid fire gun
merry. When he had finished the
course he was put on a big boat ma
chine and sent to Hampton Roads to
convoy ships to sea. His machine
had 10 foot spread and was equipped
with two Liberty motors Of 700 H. p.
Very often subs were sighted and
floating mines were an everyday at
fair. The work was fairly strenuous,
sometimes meaning II hours a day
in the air.
Ensign Ballard has been in only
two accidents, neither Of which was
serious. On one run from New York
to Norfolk his machine broke down
and repairs with difficulties Of wind
and fog stretched a five hour run into
II hours. In order to avoid the fog
he had to ascend to $4,000 feet and
in consequence both his feet were
frozen.
For time he carried mail from
Norfolk to Washington and has done
some fancy exhibition flying. Less
than half the original bunch of men
with whom he began training are
alive but better things are in PROS
pect for aviation.
