"SOMEWHERE IN FRANCE"
Tlve following Is a letter writ
ten by Williard Carson to Sheriff
Bert Geer, anl which the latter
kindly handed us.
fcoaiewhere in France"
May 24th, 1918.
Dear Friend Beit: -
I I received that little book
which you had the folks send
;me, and want to thank you very
; much for thinking of me. It cer
tainly makes a person fdel fine to
,'know that friends away back
jhotne, have time to think of you.
Well life here is the same old
story over and over again, much
work and guard duty. There Is
pot much excitement, only an air
raid pery once in a while. Near
ly every clear morning a boche
photo machine comes over and
lakes a few snap shots. Every
time one ccmes over we all give
them a good pose. I think that
the Kaiser will have my photos
hung up in his study.
I certainly am glad to know
that Toledo has began to boom
again. Its nearly time for It to
'come out of its slumber.
I visited the birth place and
home of Jeanne D'Arc, the other
day. It certainly is interesting
to se'i and study it, because you
know it is true, and not just
rumors spread around by 3ome
thoughtless person. The French
people admire and worship her
as much as the American people
jdo Washington, Lincoln and all
of our own great men.
I had my first ride in an air
plane last week, and it sure is
great dope. The earth looks just
I like a hugh flower garden. The
,many clumps of wood and the
I plowed fi'elds are the most beau
tiful. The roads look like chaulk
jlines and you can't tell a hill
jfrom a valley. The sensation is
just like riding in a launch over
I choppy waves. I had a funny
feeling in my stomach when we
started to come down. After the
: machine gets up pretty high you
Ican't notice the speed, and you
don't realize that you are going
about one hundred miles per.
I Well I will close, hoping? to
hear from you soon.
I remain, your friend,
"Kit."
,a misdemeanor punishable by
Jone year's Imprisonment."
The campaign to run down
these draft slackers will be
started very soon, and it will be
a rigorous campaign. Men
guilty of evading military service
by failure to report when they
should be re-classified, need look
for no mtrcy.
Every patriotic registrant who
has been granted deferred slass
ification, but whose status has
changed so that he is no longer
entitled to that classification,.
'.will report the change immed
iately to to his local board," said
'Captain John E. Cullison, in
charge of t.ie execution or the
draft law in the office of the
Adjutant General.
"Thoso who have not the pat
riotism to report voluntarily
.will gain nothing by it. They will
,be lound ont. and not only re
I classified, but will be subject to
severe punishment.
I "If a ma 'V is in doubt as to
change of status, he should see
Ms local board about it without
delay."

jThe groom was attired In con
ventional black. The bride's
