ENGINEERJBORPS Finest Department in the Army Says Edwin Gaffer in Letter TO HIS PARENTS Had Liberty Day Off—Enjoyed Visit to City— Plenty to Eat. Ed Gaffer writes from Camp Taylor, Ky„ to his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Peter Gaffer of Ninth street: Camp Taylor, Ky., Oct. .15. Dear Mother and All: — Received your letter today, was sure glad to hear from you again and was glad to hear that you are getting along alright. Was glad to hear that the rest < f you all are all well (get that you all) 1 am getting used to this southern talk. You said you had snow up there well we had a little day before yesterday but it didn’t stay on, it turned out warm and is getting warmer now. Oh yes, you don't need to worry about me keeping warm as I have all kinds of clothes. Will tell you what 1 have got: 1 got a suit of khaki that we work in then I got a suit ofO. D’s. that is a heavy wool dress suit, two suits of light underwear and two suits of heavy underwear (wool) two pairs of shoes, one pair of tan shoes and one pair of field shoes. Wish you could see them, the soles are all hobnail’d and the heel is of steel. They are never wearouts. Got three pairs of socks, two light and one heavy (wool.) I only got one shirt but will get two more soon. I haven't got my overcoat yet but will get it before J need one. You can bet your Uncle Sam is a good old man and he is go-

ing io keep his boys warm. I see in the paper that Decatur it out of coal, well it is different here we have got plenty and we sure use it when we need it. Oh yes, we get plenty to eat. We have all eoromor food, such as corn, peas, tomatoes, potatoes, pudding and meat. We have meat three times a day and if you don’t get enough to eat it is your owr fault. You can go and get a secom' helping. We have some kind of fruit every evening and sometimes cake <>i pie so you see they are feeding us real good. I will tell you a little about the camp and the way it is run. The bugle is sounded at 5:45, then we ge' 15 minutes to get up and dress; ther revillie at 6 o’clock: then from 6 tc 6:15 we have exercises; at 6:3f breakfast; then at 7:30 we go out t( drill till 11:30 with 15 minutes rest at the end of every hour; then we come in to the barracks wash and have din ner at 12 o'clock; then at 1 o’clock wt go out to drill till 5 with 15 minuter rest at the end of every hour, so you see we are out 8 hours but we only drill 6; then at 5 o’clock we stand re treat then go in and have supper at 5:45; then we are off for the rest of the evening can go to town or do as we please till 10:30, when we have to be in bed as the lights go out at that time and if you are out later than that without a pass you stand a good chance of going on kitchen, police <.r to the guard house.

I was in Louisville last night. Yesterday afternoon was one of our days off but as it was Liberty day they gave us the whole day off. We get Satur day afternoon and all day Sunday off We can stay out on Saturday evening till 12 o'clock but on Sunday have t< be here and stand retreat unless wt have a special pass. I thought I liked it over in the Depot Brigade but I like it a whole lot better over here. There is a fine bunch of fellows here in C. C„ all from Indiana and Illinois. The officers are the best 1 ever saw, a little strict but you have to be in the army. The boys are all singing or writing and all having a good time. It is more like an outing than anything else 1 know. We never think of the war or France but I think way down deep in each man's heart there is a something that constantly reminds him of the grim purpose he is here for but we all try never to look on the dark side cf this thing. I am writing this on my bunk as they are having moving pictures over at the Y. I got my third shot in the arm this morning and my arm is getting stiff and sore. It will be that way for a couple of days then it will be all right again. My vaccination is he lling up and I am getting to feel fine. They say that you will be sick for the first two weeks you are here as they are giving you all kinds or dope but it is all good for you. Oh say, I don’t believe I can send you those films I was talking of as they gave us an order tonight forbid ding us to take any pictures and you

know orders are orders in the army. The only thing 1 don't like over here is, you don't know how long you will be here. You are here today and may be gone tomorrow. They are going to send 28 out of Co. C to Hattiesburg tomorrow and 14 to Rockford, 111., Sunday. 1 think wo will got our gun; next week. About half of our company have them already and there is sure some sore shoulders in the bunch. 1 sure have got a fine hunk and lots of covers. 1 got two heavy comforts and two woolen blankets so you see 1 can keep plenty warm. There are only four other fellows from Decatur in the engineers corps, they are Charles Baxter, Taylor Long. Ed Zeser, Lloyd Archer and myself. I see them all once in a while. They are not in my company. Yes I am getting the paper every day now and sure do like to read it. I see that Butler boy had an awful accident out at the sugar plant. It sure is too bad. Well, as tatoo is sounding and the Y. closes at 9:30 and I want to g"t this off on the night mall I will close hoping to hear from you often as I sure like to get word from home; it helps to cheer us up and keep us in good spirits. Will I will close with love to all. I am as ever, your son, ED John E. Gaffer, Co. C„ 309ih Engl neers N. A., Camp Tayor, Louisville. Ky. O i

Sleeplessness, nervousness, irritability, backache, headaches, dragging sensations, all point to female derangements which may be overcome by Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. This famous remedy, the medicinal ingredients of which are derived from choice roots and herbs, has for forty years proved to be a most valuable tonic and invigorator of the female organism.

Ever since the discovery of Scheele 51 1775 that uric acid was found within th< body—most eminent physicians agrei that rheumatism is caused by it; als< many distressing symptoms as head iche, pain in back, stomach distress wollen feet and ankles, gout, etc. It was Dr. Pierce of the Invalids’ Hotel 3ufialo, N.

IN NEW MEXICO! — II Edwin Rabbit, a Soldier at i Camp Cody, Writes Par- | ents of Experiences. IN MACHINE COMPANY I > - I Rabbit Hunting One of the | Pastimes Indulged in— I Waiting for Guns. I Edwin Rabbitt writes his parents. | Mr. and Mrs. Charles C. Rabbitt, fit | rural route 9, from Camp Cody, Den- I ning, N. Mexico. : Camp Cody, Oct. 20, 1917. I Dear Folks:— | Received your letter yesterday and ' will try and write a few lines this eve-i 1 ning. It is awfully cold here at nights. There is a little ice on the water buckets every morning. You can imagine how cold it feels after these hot days We have our stoves up so manage to | keep as comfortable as if we were at ■ home. We don't drill any more hardly at all, as we haven't got our machine guns yet and don't expect to get them until we get across the pond, so I don’t ever expect to get any. as I don't ever expect to go across now as the French and English are sure going through them. I hope they finish it this fall, as the Germans will be able to start in fresh in the spring. I bought a liberty bond. All the fellows did. So that will take all of my savings for awhile until it is paid for. Our officers have orders to drill us in military courtesy, and to get ts physically fit. So all our drilling is mostly in the form of play. It is getting to be like a big vacation down here. It would be great if it wasn’t for the country and I am beginning to like that, as the weather is cooling down enough so a person can breathe. Os course we still have sand storms. Get one nearly every day now. I guess they keep up about all winter. There are millions of jack rabbits down here so we went rabbit hunting the other day instead of drilling. The whole battalion went. We surrounded about a square mile of territory and worked in. When we got to the center there were so many rabbits you couldn’t count them in a week and we sure slaughtered them with sticks and stones. We packed them back to camp and took a picture of them and •hen burned them as they are not fit to eat in this country. We killed two centipedes in my tent the other day. Don’t know how they got in here but they were here. If they had saw us first there might have been a couple of us missing in squad No. 9. That is one bad feature of this country but we have enough sense to look out for them and no one has been bitten by anything yet. As soon as 1 get a little money ahead I will send you some mounted sorpions, centipedes, larantulas and horned toads which flourish here. We were out on the parade grounds the other day and I almost put my hand down on the largest .a antula I ever: saw. There was sure some cold shiv-i ers running up and down my spine' but he did not last very long, and is now counted among the missing. Well I am all run down so must close for tonight. With love, EDWIN RABBITT Co. B, 126 M G. Bat., Camp Cody, Denning, N. Mexico.
