; BACON CAN STOVE Heats Joe Burdg’s Dugi one in France Com- ; fortably. 1 ’I — is A FINE LIFE I* I - Experience is Worth a Million Dollars—Would go Over It Again. i — Ralph Ramey has the following good letter from Joe liurdg. from France: Somewhere in Fram <» May 5. 1918 Dear Friend Ralph: I Well Ralph I received your letter ■several weeks ago, so I am trying to answer it now as 1 have a little time to myself. 1 wrote to Harry a few days after I received his letter, so I suppose he has received it by this time. Ralph, we only have time to write at night and then most of th? time we are located where it is even hard to write at nighL So you see we are kept pretty busy since vve landed in France. Believe me. I have traveled many a mile since 1 got over here, and I ■ have slept in old burns, or rather billets hay cars, first, second and third class railroad coaches, dugouts, puptents, and many a night we have slept on the bare ground with noth j ing to cover ourselves but our overcoats. Ralph it is hard and all that, but 1 would do the same thing ov r again if it was necessary. I wouldn’t take a million dollars for my experience that I have gained since I joined the army. Boy. outside of it all. hard ships and all. army life is a great life to live if you only live it right. You know some fellows turn out to e bums and some turn out to be men after they are in the army for a while Well, army life is just what you make it, so you see it is all up to one’s ownself.

For my part I have never lived a finer life than I am living now and I am getting more exeprience day 'ey day Ralph. I wish that you and Harry were here and could see my horn e. It is made about six feet in the ground, with a pup-tent stretched ever the top of it for a roof. I have a little stove in one end. which I built out of bacon cans and believe me »t comes in handy tonight as it is darn chilly and it has been raining all day. | Some of the other boys have built i their bunks in trees or any place that, they could or wanted to put it. Well Ralph, one thing I am sure. of is that 1 will never get married | over here. Our American girls are ;' worth more than all the girls hr France or any other country on this j side of the water. So cheer up an'b] don’t be afraid as old Joe will still be; single when he gets back to the good old U. S. A. So you see 1 will have to do my own washing while I a:n over here. By the way tomorrow is wash day for me. as most of my clothes are dirty as I haven’t washed any for a long time. So Ralph I suppose I will have to close for this time as it is getting e and I have to get up early in the morning Tell all the folks that 1 said hello to them, and when you see mother ir dad tell them that I said that they should write as 1 haven’t heard from them for about two months. So. old top. I will bid you good night, good luck and God bless you until we meet again.

Robbins, instructor in the United States aviation school at Santiago, Cai., who was enroute ! through the' city to his western camp returning from Washington, after pre senting and having accepted some plans which he had perfected for the aid of the government. Mr. Robbins I' is well known in this city, having been born near the Lindenwood terne | |tery, and was reared and studied fop I the ministry, but turned to flying ma- I chines, which he had always desired I < to be able to manipulate. Mr. Rob-' bins will be remembered as having accompanied Aviator Rogers on the first air mail trip from New York to Washington, and who was killed some time ago in a fall. Mr. Robbins' was formerly instructor in aviation for the Canadian government, but returned to the aid of America and since has been located at the California point.—Ft.
