E. F. In France. The letter conaumed just a month In Coming from France to Heppner. Hello Art: Got a letter from you yesterday. It was dated Feb. 18, and addressed to Texas had not even an organiza tion number on it, so I am surprised that It followed me at all. Yes 1 am in France all right, but ut the time your very un-neatly typewritten epistle was hammered out I wan still several hundred miles from this part of the world they call France. In fat:t I was still in the good old state of New York and not more than a million miles from tho biggest of big cities, which I didn't see. Well, to answer your first ques tion.. No, I was not enough seasick to bother much while on the way over. I missed not a meal on me way altho I had to go for my break fast twice one morning, but I got it, among the eight out of twenty gup posed to be at my table. We were on one of the few really big ships in existauce and I can say that it would take some gale to make her pitch much. ir'ay, do you know the name and number of the organization to which Henry Peterson belongs? I'd like to meet "Ole," and would go out of my way to meet some one I knew before enlistment. So far have met but one boy, a kid from Spokane I used to light. Tiiat was at Kelly Field, no ono since. , Woll, I suppose you are about crazy for a description of France. The censor domands that I tell no military matters, so here goes. France is, iruedless to say, a por tion of the earth. The roads are, as for as I have gone, all stone and the houses all brick or stone with slate or tile roofs, and a f(;w thutched ones. The railroads have all man ners of box cars, coaches and loco motives. The majority of the cara are about like good sized cracksr boxes on wheels and many of the locomotives would make good watch fobs. But they have quite a number of real locomotives and some cars as big or bigger than ours. They couple the cars together with. an odd arrangement of links and hooks no automatic coupling here. " The people, well,I am not In posi tion to describe the people as they really are. You see it la up to a fel low to talk French If he wants to make many acquaintances among the Frenchmen. We have quite a time getting what we want in the stores, but there have been U. S. soldiers here for quito a while so somo of the people can talk a little English. The main streets hero aro very wide, most of them but the most of the streets are narrow and crook ed. I have found out. that "Hotel" does not always moan Hotel in this country that a barber shop is a "co ifiuer" and so on. Well I guess this is all for now. Write soon. Your Old I'al, iMiatLK K.
