Letters fromThe Boys Who Have Gone
to Make the World Safe for Democracy
Extracts from letters from
Frank Rossi to his mother arid
sister:
Somewhere in France, August
25, 1918. Dear Mother, Having
nothing to do this afternoon, I
thought J would write you a
few lines. I just received a let
ter from you today, dated July
23, and was very glad to get it
I am feeling fine now and hope
you are all the same. The weath
er has surely been hot the last
few days. We have a fine swim
ming hole here. We all sure hit
it after we got here from the
long train ride. The trains here
burn coal and we do get dirty
and full of cinders traveling.
Were moving the last week
it took us very near a whole week
to move. We are now in a dif
ferent part of France than we
were before and it is lots better.
We are much nearer the line and
in a territory where thev have
been having air raids but have
had none since we have been
here. We might go into action
at am" time now and are ready
to go when they need us.
How is Vincent getting along?
Do they hear from him often?
He wrote to Dick Underwood
once since he has been up to the
frort.
You wrote and asked me if J
need any money. No. I don't,
for we ret paid every month reg
ular and I still have the monev
you gave me when I left. It is
all IT, S. money I have and
am keening it for a souvenir un
les I get up atrainst it some time
and need money.
I am 'srin'1 "nn vpeived my in
surance nolicy "as I have been
wondermc why. they hadn't sent
it before. I. suppose they have
so many that it takes quite a
to m" Liberty Bonds. I suppose
it will be nuite a while before
you get them, but they were paid
up the first of August.
You wrote that you had ; pie
"ri wished I could have some.
Well, about a week ago we had
apple pie and night before last
rpisin pie, so you see we don't
fefA bad at that.
Must close now. Give mv love
to all. Your son, FRANK.
Oft.. 2. 1918, Dear Sister,
How is everything at home now?
T pynect you have been worrying
""t ne ouite a bit lately, but
i4" V as been imnossible f" me to
4-v,R jaf?t g;x eecs
I'm feeling fine and have been
iin to the front twice. at two
different places. Came out both
ties all 0. K. If I don't write
often don't worry, for we are
soe b',oTr when on the front.
Saw Vincent,' Leon and Jim--Apva
af and was with
Vincent for two days. We sure
had a good time together and he
promised to come over again to
day, but I expect he must have
been too busy. They are all fine
and have not been touched so far.
What is father doing nowa
days? . Tell him to get me a good
job. for I'll be back soon to go to
work. ' .
I suppose you have started to
school. I forgot it was school
time. Surely the time flies by
here. i
Write often as I love to hear
from home. Love to all. Frank.
W. E. Squires left a few apples
at this office the other day
which he says are the same kind
that he used to steal when he
vas a boy. The editor of this
paper never did believe in en
couraging even boys in wrong
doing, but we have sampled the
apples and we are free to say
if his memory is good and these
apples are the same kind as the
forbidden fruit of his boyhood
days, we do not blame him one
bit for taking them surrepti
tiously if there were no other
way to get them.
Clarence Overton of Los An
geles who is now working in the
shipyards at Vancouver and is
a Class I-A man and expecting
a call to active service with the
next draft, was here Sunday as
the guest of Mrs. F. M. Hobart.

BIG SURPRISE TO MANY
IN BEAVERTON
People are surprised at the
INSTANT action of simple
buckthorn bark, glycerine, etc.,
as mixed in Adler-i-ka. ONE
SPOONFUL flushes the EN
TIRE bowel tract so completely
it relieves ANY CASE sour
stomach, gas or constipation and
prevents appendicitis. The IN
STANT, pleasant action of Adler-i-ka
surprises both doctors
and patients. It removes foul
matter which poisoned your
stomach for months. L. R.
Dean, druggist.
