LETTERS FROM DR. FYFE.

Wheatfield Review: The following are extracts of letters received from Capt. M. B. Fyfe, Medical Corps, A. E. F., formerly of Wheatfield, written to Mrs. Fyfe and Mrs. B. M. Clark: , Well, our corps has been ordered to prepare for occupation of oerman ter«ritory, and suppose I should feel elated at the opportunity, as it is considered some honor. Yow .are considered “out of luck” ifyou are not included. I am hoping we will not fee needed ion* there and it will shorten our Stayton foreign soil, but as usual we never know what is coming. , ... Do not receive papers or periodicals from the states until they are six weteks old. Neither do we receive the dailies from Paris (through the courtesy- of the Red Cross) until they are a day old, so don’ t be amazed if we are slightly out of date on news. -But I feel tonight like what the “L.” I Won’t start kicking at tills stage of the game. The wonderful thing of it all is, its Am sure the allies will make short work of Jix-Kaiser & Co. We don’t know where we are to go on this trip. Hope Mr. Censor looses his job soon so I can tell you. Weather is real cold, ground freezing; eliminating this aw-ful mud. s' Lieutenant Jackson of was ordered to report to an English ambulance company and has gone,, We all feel pretty blue~over it. He was the life vs our outfit, The day War was declared off he came in with the remark, ‘Well, I went up to the front and stopped this d war It’s gone on long enough to suit me.” He was surely well liked.

France, Nov. 19, 1918. Am Writing as often as possible now as probably by ’tomorrow we will be on our way to Germany, and as we go overland will not have an opportunity to write as often, if at all Haven’t any new information on how soon we may be starting home, as no one knows a thing. Plenty of unfounded, likewise confounded, rumors. I will take the first opportunity, you can bet, to come home. Am well, and keep fairly warm present quarters. You speak of getting pT6htyoffresit air. Can’t be otherwise. No glass in the windows, only fragments of roofs, if any, floors and sides filled with shell holes, so you see the houses are not exactly air tight. When Ido get home I will not know how to act in a real house with a clean, comfortable bed. We take our baths near a French fireplace'over which we heat a meat.can full of water which we put into two 'folding pails, one for each foot, and in that way our bath progresses. We still cling to that old time ceremony on Saturday evening. All in the company are busy getting ambulances repaired, new tires, engines overhauled. In fact, everything in readiness to move on quick notice. The Red Cross surely is doing a wonderful work, so liberal to all and “Johnny on the spot." Give us such things as papers, cigarettes, cocoa, jams, red hots, oat meal and milk, and everything possible for them to obtain. Will not accept pay. At their suggestion we are taking a truck load of things like I just mentioned for our company extra 'on the trip. They do not ask praise or notoriety but they quietly “DO” and I believe our money spent by them has gone farther than for any other couse. We are at the place where American and Italian prisoners are coming through retiring from Germany They want a full belly, something warm with a good smoke, and they are satisfied. No complaints, but eternal kigding. One of he knew why Napoleon always had his picture with one hand inside his coatT-“He was scratching cooties.” Such foolish z witticisms, although seeming disrespectful, keep up our courage. With love.

To Mrs. Clark.

France, Nov. 17, I#lß. Things have happened so fast and with such intensity of late that I have hardly had time to write or anything. We pave to carry on out work at night and without lights unless we’re hidden, and then during the day one has to get everything ready and working so that the same can be used without the aid of lights the next night when necessary. So its some job to keep all running smoothly, but by the way verything has turned out our work has not been in vain. * I wish you and. Mrs. Fyfe could view some of ths conditions that have resulted in France from the effects of the war. Our little affair near Kouts and Hebron would seem small indeed in comparison and we all thought that dreadful at the time, The destruction of property is really a small matter whan compared witp the loss of life, even though small with our forces as compared with that sustained by the French after four years of this, and the most remarkable thing for me to understand is their business-like methods and seeming indifference to sacrifice they are called to make. ; Our coming op the scene when we did seems to have changed their entire morale, given them their “second wind,” ,as it were, as there is not the slightest hitch experienced between our force and theirs,, as when due tp some brek down of a truck or blown up truck, confusion reigns on a congested road and your impatient' “Yank" eager to get his task performed in the shortest possible time, bawls a "Frog" fa Frenchman) out for causing tfte delay. All he does is to lend his stole aid. do what the “Yank" wants, him to and "Smil-e,” and at that smile no one can be safe; it jqpt calms everything down. . f can’t help but laujh myself when I think of some of the incidents that occur. We were blocked for j

<bout Jopr hours one night after waUs.Qjg up to the front of 4hs litre. Of' an<£ -What-not, discovered a blown-up French wagon, audit coming about their meal time, 11 p. m., they had stopped to cook and eat. and gossip awhile. You can imagine a 'bunch of U. 8. -soldier's doing that and how it affected them, but thate their way and maybe it would be best if oura was not so.em? ergetic. I could go on for hours with just such exampl.de. Our wihter has set In over here; the thermometer does not registef sb low but the ai£ is raw and damp, and cuts right through, much like our weather. -The country here does not have a very inviting appearance, houses, roads, trees and fields are all shot UP, presenting a most forlorn picture. No livtj, Stock, no inhabitants, only a stray dog or cat occasionally. One. can never tell which direction you are going for more than a mile at a time as thqMfeads wind and turn over and around hiTft, never parallel, like ours. North is never in the same place twice in all the different places I For the life of me I don’t see after arriving home, unless 1 have a map, TfOw’l will be able to tell where I’ve been. France-and her people have-sure been a surprise to us Americans, but am glad to say the surprise has been pleasant, only we are all home sick, hardly anyone wishing to stay. It is wonderful to have the experience but the U. 8. A. for us. Was glad to 'leaio usual, went over the top in the Fourth Liberty ibarr;* and know that “Buzz” and the bunch were on the job, and the way that you. women folks and those that stayed at home have worked and helped In war matters has sure gone a great way towards giving the boys the necessary kick to put it over old Kaiser Bill.. Very best wishes, CAI’T. M. B. FYFE. A. E. F.» A. P. O. 754.

PRIVATE SCHULTZ WRITES AGAIN

The following letter was received by Mr. and Mrs. A. R. Schultz, of Union township, from their son, Private Ferman A. Schultz: November 24, 1918. Dear Dad:— I thought I would write you a letter today as it is “Dad’s Letter Day,” and we can tell almost anything we want to, so listen, here goes something that may interest you somewhat. We left America, on Aug. 1, 1918, on the good ship Sidney, after taking a ride on the Henry Hudson. The Atlantic sure is a great sheet of water. It took us until Aug. 12 to cross and we janded in Brest, France, arid rode up ‘the harbor in a French boat. We went to an American camp a few miles away and stayed about ten days, after which time we got on a train at Brest and rode for five or six days and nights and finally arrived at a town named Gondrecourt, and marched about four miles to an Inn named Abenviile and took the narrow guage toward the front to a village named Sorcy, from which place we could hear the cannon quite plain and see air fights. A few days later we moved back a few miles to a town named Void. Here we stayed for a few weeks, when we got orders to move towards the front again, and started out after , night towards the Verdun front. We had been near the Metz front and had worked near enough to see the shells bursting and see the sand and rocks fly as they took the big hill over in the Toul sector. We marched for five or six nights through mud and water and with shells whistling over our heads and bursting back of us. The last night we landed at' Anbreville and were gassed, but we had our gas masks s odid not suffer from it a bit, although we were obliged to move back to a safer place as the Germans were getting a line onus and sent shells near enoqgiuihat I had sand thrown on me once from an 8-inch shell bursting a number of feet away. We v,eYe behind the infantry arid ahead of the artillery most of tee time and such a noise no one ever heard any where else as the American guns made. "'We moved up here where we are now about five weeks ago. We are now near the town of Shippy and right in front of Dead Man’s Hill and Hill 304. I have gone over both several times and have seen things I cannot remember now but will tell y°u about when I get home. The night the armistice was signed you should have seen the celebration on the front. 'The 4th of July celebrations were irf the shade compared with it, believe me. - Rockets were shot up so it looked as light as day and guns shooting as fast as they could, and /since that all has been quiet and <we have not been doing much work. Fifty of us men have been left behind the company with one lieutenant and/sergeant, the latter is from some place out in Washington state. He >is going to come and visit me if he can whence goes out west again, or his home is in Syracuse, N. Y., and he means to stop th®re when we get back. Well, this is about all the history for this time. lam just fine. Hoping this finds all the same, I remain, Your loving son and brother, " PVT. FERMAN A. SCHULTZ. Co. D, 22nd Engrs., A. E. F.
