 You may be surprised to get this little note, but I'm taking the greatest of pleasure in writing to you. Just re ceived The Springdale News, sure was glad to get it too. That little paper always has interesting news. Noticed letter from It Guy (. Stafford Fay and Raymond Stafford, also Capt Otto Christian and a num- Der of other Springdale boys. Am more than glad that they are having the best of health I'm in small town by the name of Humes. It's about two and one half miles from a larger town called Longes, pronounced Long. These little towns all look alike, none of them looks good to me. The little city of Springdale would look very good to this soldier, believe me.

 Will say few words to the girls. Now girls don't worry about your sWeethearts, the French girls are not near as good looking as the Amer jean girls, and that's some compli- ment on yonr part. There has been none of the Springdale boys married yet, and you know they wouldn't marry a French girl, even if they couldn't get you. They say,"0h, I just received a letter from my girl back home, If l ever get back to Shiloh, I'm going to marry that sweet little girl, that is if she will have me , So girls you see that you have we boys going your way. I'll tell you what l think and how 1 feel toward the American girls. If every girl in the states would turn me down, and l would be an old bachelor all the rest of my days l still would be strong for the American girls. Now what I have said might not be very interesting to some of you girls. but l believe it will to most of you Ha, Ha.

mas eve. more than four thousand miles from home in the Alps Noun. tains. in eastern France. where the weather is anything but warm, l am spending Christmas The Y. NJ. c. A gave us Christmas tree. which was appreciated by all. Our presents consisted of three packages of choeo- late, three of cigarettes, cigar and a package of chewing gum. Those presents though small, were large in the eye of the American soldier be- cause it was something from the good patriotic citizens of the good old U s. A. the home of the brave and the free, the heart of the world in the eye of the Sammies. There is only one battalion of the l42nd here, the first battalion, which is A and B batteries A battery from Springdale and B battery from Fayetteville These batteries have made good in every thing that they have undertaken and we are often spoken of in the 39th Division as the best battalion in the Division. The lttle Christmas tree that we had tonight has called my memory back to childhood when we children at home would long for Christmas to come so Santa Claus would bring us some candies and toys which were the pride of our childhood. When we would wake in the morning and find the presents in our stock ings we were carried away with joy, but those sweet days are gone and we have grown from children to men and women, yet we look back over our lives and think of the pleasant times spent together. Though 1 be so far from you, my love is with you am expecting to be with you all again some day, anyway, believe that will
 Back again, this is Christmas morn ing and l have been to a Christmas program. Brigadier General Haynes made us a short talk and congratulat- ed us on our work.
 This is not the first Christmas have spent away from home, but it is the most solemn one. because We are lonesome and far from loved ones at home. 1 expect to spend the 4th of July with you, but that is several days when you stop to think. don't expect to get home much sooner
 sure would like to have some of that sausage you were telling me about. 1 am sure that it would taste good for it has been a long time since I have had all the sausage 1 could eat. They have prepared us a turkey din- ner today. but l never cared much for turkey so 1 won't eat much guess.

A HOMEMADE DOLLS HOUSE.
BY HlLDA 6USIck.

A friend of mine entered her five
year-old son In kindergarten. She
took him there every day, and once In
while stayed with her three -yenr-old
daughter to visit. Noticing that the
children were happy because they were
busy with work which appealed to
them, and that the dolls house was
frequently the center of attraction,
she decided to allow her little ones to
make house at home. So for 20 cents
two wooden egg boxes were secured
from the grocer, amid much excite
ment on the part of the children.
The boxes were taken straight to
the children's corner. and 1t was de-
cided that work should be done on
them on rainy days only and that the
children were to do all the work II
possible.
At their dictation. mother made a
list of the things they intended to do !:
Paint the outside of the boxes white !;
make curthin across the front; have
n kitchen. dining room. sitting room
and bedroom paper the rooms make
for the different rooms. The next thing
20 do was TO prepare n list of the va
rious materials needed: Paint, paper.
,cissors, thumb tacks. cardboard boxes.
.pools. glue. scalloped-edge tissue
uaQer napkins for window curtains.

AmerIca's Victory coIors.

Those In America who choose the
seasonal colors for the dyers and
dressmakers, have united upon rich,
deep blue and bright cherry as the
victory colors for 1919. 1t is not the
red that we associate with conquerors.
observes correspondent, 1t is too light
and thin In Its tones; but 1t will un-
doubtedly prove success. as 1t is an
excellent contrast to the victory blue.
The choice of these colors is confined
to America. We do not know that
France will launch victory colors, but
1t is to be supposed that IL she does,
she will use the horizon blue Of the
French uniform orr the blue of the
French flag. She is not much given
to this kind of work. 1t may be that
she will not celebrate victory through
fabrics.

Iadybirds for France.

Southern California has. during re-
cent years, been credited with leading
all other sections Of the United States
In developing natural methods OF COM
batting insect pests. Among these Is
the ladybird, the tiny red bug which
feeds on plant insects. Millions OF
these bugs, propagated In the Califor-
nia nurseries, are now being shipped
overseas to France, where they will be
incubated until spring and released to
do their part in destroying noxious In
sects. Great stretches of land In south
ern France have been untitled during
the war, and 1t is expected that vari-
ous pests will be greatly In evidence.
