How to Make a Good “Hit” with
the Returning Soldiers.
(By Lt.. ¿5. Bait., in Umpqua Valley News.)
On board the U. S. Transport Haverford, Jan. 17.—
Here follows a tew "den’ts” for the family, who has a
son returning Horn France. If these instructions are
closely followed, it la needless to say, that the boy will
"feel at home” and will no doubt shed tears of gratitude
at euch act of kindess bestowed upon him by the loving
family.
DON’T— t ail to feed him bacon for breakfast—the fat,
greasy kind. He’s been eating it every morning
since landing in France, calls it “A. E. F. chick-
en” and can't get along without it.
DON’T__ neglect to lay In a supply of prunes. They took
the place of strawberries while he was chasing
the Hohenzollern outfit and a meal without them
will take ten jears off his life.
DON’T __ put cream in the coffee. In order to please him
prepare coffee in this manner: one teaspoonful of
Arbuckles to four gallons of water—preferable
dish water—it gives an oriental taste. Insert
three drops of condensed milk to the mixture and
there you have the key to his heart.
DON’T —overlook "slum” on your menu. It can be made
successfully from "left-overs”—one soup bone
will make enough slum-gullion to ration a regi-
ment.
DON’T __ ever have butter on the table—he loves Oleo. In
case of a shortage of oleo, use the axel grease that
came with the Ford. If it is a dark day, he'll never
know the difference.
DON’T __ mention table manners to him. On account of
living on foreign soil he Has been associated with
strange customs and may take a run and Jump at
the table forgetting to remove his hat. All dishes
should be constructed of metal for in the grab­
bing thut follows, something might get broke. If
he seems rude, just smile at him graciously and
say: “Son, you haven’t changed a bit.”
DON’T appear surprised when finishing a meal, if he
grabs his dishes and runs widly outside in search
of a bucket of dish water. Simply make it a rule
to have this bucket in a mudhole during the rainy
season—the same water can be used from day to
day and must be cold.
DON’T- -mind his cussing—he must have some way or
means of expressing himself and his short and
snappy sentences may be liberally punctuated
with words of questionable character.
DON’T—forget to make arrangements with the cornet
player in the town band and have him pass the
house each morning at 5 a.m. and blow a few
blasts on his trumpet.
DON’T —start the day wrong, The entire family should
accompany him to the street at 5:10 a.m. and
“marathon” around the block for twenty minutes.
After this part of the day's program is completed,
a messtin should be formed at the back door, led
by dad, who outranks the family—and pays for
the month’s rations.
DON’T go to any trouble to fix his room—he would
prefer sleeping in the barn. It will remind him of
his billets in France and give him that “back to
ature" feeling.
DON'T neglest bathing facilities. A tomato can and a
bar of laundry soap will nutrice und oft times
prove a luxury.
DON'T say "Please will you do this” to him. Just yell
at him with the gruffest tone you can command
and “crab” at him for not showing more “pep'.
That will make a hit with him instantly.
DON’T allow him to get familiar with the family,
make him stand at "attention” and "salute” at
each and every interview—and if a coat button is
missing—summon the sheriff and commit the cul­
prit to the brig.
DON’T - call him by his name—Just yell "Buddy” at him
and his will always respond—that’s the only
name he had in the A. E. F.
DON’T let him get lonesome. At times it would be ad­
visable to call In the neighbors and start a crap
game. This offers a pleasing passtime and may
not—owing to the players skill—fill the coffers
of the family treasury.
DON’T display your ignorance of the "Frog” language.
If he says "Bon Jour” you should always answer
"Souvenir”. His stay In France has given hint the
complete mastery of that tongue and he'll no
doubt use "beaucoup” words thut smack of "prom-
me de terre frit.”
DON’T—question his stories of the war—although at
at times his lies may not hung together perfectly.
The “Whix Bangs" at the front may have affected
his memory. If he tells you that Sir Douglas Haig
was a sergeant in his squad—Just believe him—
for after all—HE'S YOUR SON.
