In Iceland

Mrs. Henry Lundy received a letter
from her brother, Sgt. John B. Ward,
who is stationed somewhere in Iceland
with the u. S. forces. This letter will
be interesting to many Of our readers
who have friends or members of their
families in hat place:
Saturday, Oct. Is, 1913,
Somewhere in Iceland"
Dear 1nez:
How is everything going aroun Lex
ington these days? l am getting along
very we'll. I will try to write you a
little about Iceland tonite tho I can
never write a very good letter. The
people here are somewhat different
from the Americans. They look like
Swedes, usually blond hair. Their big
gest industry is fishing. They also
raise a lot of sheep here. Most of the
merchandise in the stores comes from
the USA or England. They raise a few
Irish potatoes and the ones l saw were
about the size of a quarter. The horses
here are much smaller han the average
horse in the United States. The picture
| sent had two of them with wool from
sheep across their backs.
The days in the summer are unusually
long. When we first came here it didn't
get very dark until about midnight. In
the winter it sometimes doesn't get day
light until nine o'clock in the morning
and is dark again at three o'clock in
tho afka~nnn Go kko, A,1l ~oa Gon,,
it really has changed a lot since we
came here.
We live in huts that look like huge
steel barrels, split in half and placed on
the ground. There are no trees here
although they are trying to grow a few.
| have been told, but I haven't seen
them yet. Plenty of grass grows here
although it doesn't get as long as the
grass 1t home. The wind blows so hard
it will knock you off you feet at times.
They say it sometimes blows over q
hundred and twenty-five miles an hour.
There are plenty Of mountains here.
They ara real prstty when they are
covered with snow, which is most Of the
time. Most Of the mountains are old
extinct VOLCANOES. The last one erupted
in 1894. The whole countryside around
here is covered with rocks. In some
places they have solid fields of rock,
called lava beds. There are many diff
ferent kinds of birds here, including
geese, ducks, etc. l have been told the
only wild animals they have here are
fox. We nave had a good many SHOWS
already, but it does not cover the ground
all the time as most people think.
Bye for now, write often.
