AS A DRAIN BOY SEES Most Economical Coffee Our arantee ; Your grocer will refund the full price you paid for MJ.B.J Coffee, if it does not please your 1 taste, no matter how much you have used out of the can. - The best coffee at any price-Sg - ' - ... ' " SWMk ' Vacuum Packed .'; i'fvy'' The following letter, written by Aoy Sneed, who lived In the vicinity of Drain up until the time of hlB en listment, Is interesting as showing that a soldier can be happy while In the service in a foreign country, and that he realizes his duty to himself, his country and friends. Roy Sneed evidently has the sort of stuff In his moral fiber that goes to make of him a good soldier, and of whom the coun try can be proud. And this young man is a representative of countless other boys who are lighting and dying for American homes and ideals. - Dear Folks: Arrived right side up with care and such a lovely trip. The sea was quite calm all the way over. Several times It pitched things off the plates where theyi were laid. One night, all of a sudden, about five hun dred mess kits banged down on the floor all at once. Sounded just like a tin shop was hit by a cyclone. About two days of such was all we had. It was funny to try to roam around the ship slip, slide and bump Into ev erything. Saw one long slim fellow about like Joe H. flopped flat on his back and slide about 20 feet arniB and legs waving like a crab. Many other queer things like pouring a cup of soup down somebody s neck. Owing to the calm weather not so many were sick. But a few were sorry, you bet. I was badly under the weather a couple of days, but nev er got badi enough to throw up the moon or miss a meal. About the most perplexing thing was why there was so much water in the ocean. Now when the crossed the Mississippi riv er I expected to see a body of water, but honest, where we crossed, it was not as wide as the Columbia. When we got to New York expected to Bee water; when we got here I knew I had seen some water. But I enjoyed It, and at no time would I have gono back if I had the chance. I cannot realize I am in a forolgn country. Why, it Is just like going to the fair in another state. Every thing the same or like It is at home, and I like it far better than Texas. To describe it as fully as possible, just take a spring on the ranch down In Hardscrabble and plant the hills In grapes. That is what I have though of as I picked out the familiar trees and plants upon arriving. First, the lociiBt trees, then clover, butter cups, daisies. Poplar and locust trees are all I have foundi in tills small camp. The climate seems the same oven to the rain, but it is not muddy. Here 1 am having war with money; don't know wnat it is worth, but be Kin to get the idea now. The people are just as nice as can be and' the " Y'-' is a- blessing to be remembered as sure as this war Is recorded in his tory. I wish our mothers, girls and all dear to us, could feel as I do, (I said I, but it should be we, for the fellows all feel the same. It makes no ail ference what Is- ahead, we are going through It in good shape; do the job up good before we leave It, The hor rors of being bunged up does not bother. I am convinced 1 am doing a .share In keeping up civilization, so what happens to me makes no difference; there Is somebody to look out for me so long as I am fair aud square' with him. ' Here are some things . ' that put more men out of commission than war, and I find a lesson In It which I am anxious to see the answer to. War Is said to be hell, you know, and slays men by tens of thousands. Well, now, most of those men kill them selves. You read up good and And only 2 per cent of wounded die, be cause women nurBes come and mend them up. So after you are shot, if you are clean, chances are you can go back. The fellows who cannot con trol their passions and go out for the high times and get all shot up with disease, -are the ones who kick In. There are more killed that way than by bulletB. A man kills himself often er than anything. ' If I had the say the bird who had no more respect tor himself or others than to do these things would stay inside the high fence, where French people could not find out we had them among us. When a bird gets caught going so far he does a good hitch, but tnat is not enough. I like France, you bet, so far. Hopo t can learn to talk It soon. You can envy mo alt you wish, but never feel sorry for me because I am just as happy as anybody can be, and get all I Want of" everything but time, Love to all, ' ; .

ALLEGED KIDNAPPING In responso to a telegram from Sheriff Hurlburt, . of Multnomah county to arrest Mrs. Helen Spranger wanted In Portland -for the alleged kidnapping of Adrian May Butts, a 7-year-old girl, Chief of Police Hatcher stc.pped the woman here who was on train No. 53 enroute to San Francisco Tuesday evening, says tile Ashland Tidings.
