Gen. Reynolds Burt has been ordered to place at the dis posal of the commander of the Eastern Department the 63rd Infantry, now headed by Colonel Croxlen. "This regiment, which came here from the Presidio at Sun Francisco in August, is one of the finest brganizations in the whole Army and the men are prepared for any sarvico. It is not unlike ly that tl.ey will be sent to New York. "Thoso who are familiar with tho regiment know the character of tho. men of the (3rd.. They are exceptionally large fellows, mostly from Oregon, California and Montana, and they wanted especially to be sent to the firing line: Their officers had explicit confidence in their ability to whip tho nuns' Celebrates iti Frdnce, , France, Nov. 11 r 1918.

"It is some pleasure now to write for it is a plum pood war now. They can talk about music and nice sounds, but in my opin ion the nicest sound in the world was the complete silence at 11 o'clock yesterday.

A joint meeting of the, ,to,wn council, school directors, andciti zens was held last evening ancf the maUer of. closing jiiscussed, at length'.' It was decided laclosq the schools for the balance Of the week at le33tr but if no new cases' developed jn the meantime to re; open them Monday. The council placed a ban oh all public gather ings, entertainments, etc,, and. crowds on streets or in buildings., The marshal will enforce these provisions. . , All citizens of the Valley are. urged to do their utmost to pre-: vent further spread of the dis ease. As a means to this end;, keep the children at home as much as possible, avoid dance? an t all entertainments, keep the. horn p we)l ventilated and furaj; gated, and ta,ke every precaution to avoid colds. . . It is planned to secure author-, ity from the state to "enforce a strict quarantine on all cases that may appear in the valley in the future. Getting Along Fine in France. From a series of letters written, by Ferman C. Davis, we take the foPowing: i Oct. 22. "I was in school the same time Tracy and Roy W.ere, but did not take the same course.? 1 had a six-year cQursjin a little over a month.. I am sorry but I cannot answer your questions as to what I am doing or have done.. I am a cannonier now and that is all I can tell you." ; Oct. 27. "We have moved quite a distance from where we were stationed, and like, it -much better as there isri'tso much mud and the quarters are better. 1 just received a copy of .the E. V,1 News this morningiso-1 know all the-homchappeniflgs of a couple of montba ago. Thorp sure had a convincing wrapper around it; just step in and thank him forme and the-rest of the boys." Nov. 3. "We are pretty busy now; are having good .weather aays arc warm, and the' '.nights clear and cold. The country around here is very much like the Lookout country, t-ight in the tops ot the mountains, and is a pretty place. Most of the country :is covered with timber and brushy mostly oak and hazelnut. It is surprising that there is so miucK uncultivated land. here- mo'e, it seems to me, than there is in bui own western states. There is only aboilfcdrie-half as muth' stock" hjjro as 'tHb' country ibukh'sup) port; I have noticed this over aU of Franco I have seen, and I th' ink I haVo seen tho largest half."
