FUN FROM KIDS I The Funny Little French Children Are Amusing to AMERICAN SOLDIERS Is Slowing Learning the French Language—Jess Cole Writes. i May, 1913 , lK>ar Mother: Well, here we are in sunny France, having landed on yesterday a. m„ ea • ly. We docked on the night before but slept all night on board. It was a beautiful day when we steamed itro ' port and my first impression of France was indeed a long and wonderful one. as the harbor is a long one and runs inland for a few miles, and the scenery was most beautiful. The pretty towns, homes, fields, flowers and sea coast convinced me at once that France is all that 1 had heard of her. We docked in the evening and from deck we talked to a numlier of Sammies who have been here for some time. There were a number ?t French people there to see us come in and the kids sure made ns laugh, dressed in their funny clothes, some of them in half hose, they were certainly a picture. We threw them monty and they sure did some tall scrambling to get hold of a piece of American coin. After disharking we marched through the city to a concentration camp, where we will be for a few days and then we go on inland to the place where the school is situated. I enjoyed the trip across but oh how glad, we were to set foot on soil once more. ‘ Yesterday it rained hard and was very muddy but this morning the sun rose early and gave us a rosy greeting This morning I took a much needed ice cold bath, put on all clean clothes, and now I feel like a prince. I.ast night, here at the “Y" I heard what 1 consider the best lecture I have ever heard. A minister, from New Haven, Conn., talked and it was great. He was in uniform and knew all about France and what we have in store for us “Over Here” and he talked to us just like one of the fellows and made some hit with us. From what we hear the school we attend is a very fine place, one of the best in France, started by Napoleon, and we expect things pretty nice. | The Y. M. C. A. service is good here. They serve hot chocolate every [day and say it is sure "fine. The I French people are strong for chocolate and so am I. They also serve a lint- ’ ited amount of candy and cookies r,o t we can still get our “nick nacks." To- , bacco and cigarettes are plentiful. ’ Soap is pretty poor but I have a good • supply of very good soap. My lock?! ’ comes in very handy, even if it did • get a hole knocked in it on the way • over. I am slowly acquiring a little ■ French and soon I expect to be able to get along ail O. K.. and tell the girls how good looking they are, et". Have had most of my money changed and French money' is very easy to get
■ i on to. The only trouble is that for. our money you get so much French' that it makes one round shouldered to carry it around. However il go -• 1 just that much faster. Must close anti mail this. Write soon. I.ots of love. JESS COLE. la'on Springs. It. O. T. C. Det.. t American Expeditionary Forces. “THE KAISER. THE BEAST OF BERLIN.’ Manager Parent, announces that Rutert Julian's masterfr.l photodram i "Th Kaiser, the Beast of Berlin." I comes to a viewing at the Crystal’ theatre, Friday, after weeks of expe-t- 1 ation ami several changed dates, when is is underlined for a day's run with matinee to be given at 1:00 o'clock 1 and continuing until 11. In the citi. c. where it has already been shown, press* and public have hailed it with enthus- . lasm. even hardened critics who have never been able to discern any good in anything morable pictorially, have unbent to the point of insisting that "Everybody ought to see ’The Kaiser.' the Beast of Berlin.’ ” The story is from the prolific pen of E. J. Clawson, and said to be the most intimate and daring life exposure of any mortal the screen has ever be-n called upon to depict, without being overdrawn or exaggeratedi Rwpe-t Julian, who plays the part of the Kaiser, and who also directed the pl< ture, is to be complimented on the true and unflinching manner in which I he has exposed German Kultur and I Militarism in all its hideousness aml| the lust of the Hohenzillern leader.' is the expression of all who have had the opportunity of seeing this super-1 cinema. UNITE FORCES LABOR Washington, D. C„ June 7—Organizations that so successfully condtni-l *ed the Third Ijberty Ijoan and Se<-[ ond Red Cross campaigns are networking in cooperation with farm-] help specialists of the United States department of agriculture in many cities to find workers with farm ex perience to help farmers harvest the I wheat crop. Other organizations in [ cities, towns and villages are also i uniting their efforts to aid in this i Work. If the wheat is to lie savxd.l r and other needed farm work done, | i there must be closer cooperation be-’ • tween the town and country, accord- . ing to the department of agriculture .
