Dear Sister: I just received your most welcome letter today, was awful glad to hear from you. This leaves me fine, was never better in my life. I tell you there never was a place like the army to make a man of a fellow. I am glad you got my pictures all right. I do look pretty airy I guess to the people at home but we do not mind it so much here as we would at home in a furcoat. I was glad to get Harry's picture, my he is getting to be some man I would like to see hijn. Well I am getting so I like France better. My everyone would _walk ten miles to do any thing for a sold- ier, they just carry us around in their hands. I am not very far from Ralph Smithers and I am go- ing over to see him the first day I can. He is about 16 miles from where we are but I can walk it easy. You read about No-Mans- Land there is quite a difference between it and home it is about 16 miles back of the front line. The Heuvel ton boys will find out all about it when they get over here, that is the way I have found out. I am ahead taller than anyone in our company so when the shells are flying I have to keep on the look-out if I keep my hat on. I tell you it is some noisy place. In a few hours each day, West, I could tell you more but can not now, but will when I get home you won't sleep for 48 hours. I missed my Thanksgiving dinner with you last year but I will be home for this 'one coming. Raise two ducks just for me, one for the one I missed. Was glad to hear the Old town had gone dry, in one way, in another a place is done for when it is dry, but is good for the mothers of the boys growing up. J have not heard from George since I came over to France. 1 wish I knew whether he was over here or not, let me know if you can so I will know. Find out from Mrs Gray, she will know. Say Mary, the Y. M. C. A. ig a great help to us boys over here, tell Jack never to refuse to help the Red Cross or Y. M. C. A. as they are an awful lot of help Well I am writing this letter in a French school house. There is a little French girl teacher but I can- not talk to her, one fellow with me can as he is French himself. Tell Mrs. I^amereaux I will be able to talk to her when I come home. Well I will ring off for this time as I have to go to drill. Answer TRACTOR SCHOOL ATGOUYERNEUR SEED OATS FOR SALE—300 bushel good choice seed oats. D. F.
