A. Summers, Editor Now that the election is over and everything is settled for another two years, most of us can settle down to our regular business and forget it. We suggest keeping a list of the new republics of Europe as a passtimo. .And now after the election is over and after they have said all the hitter and unjust things about President Wilson that they could think of, the lndianaplis News and Star will as usual, we suppose, proceed to take back e erything they have said. RMS is a sample of what we all the "Off year in Polities" when the country calls forth a congr .-sionul opposition to the government in power. Harry (. Strickland, of (Ireonficld, has run such, a good race for Congress against Elliott that the Hh. District should be ready to back him for a home run in 1!20.

TO CHRISTMAS BUYERS

Eery patriotic citizen is cxpec ted to co-operate with the patriotic merchants of Indiana, in carrying out the program agreed on by representatives of the retail trade and the war industries board, by width it is hoped to conserve man power and transportation facilities, ordinarily required to handle the rush of Christmas business. This program emphasizes the following points: Christmas shoppers will spread their buying over the months of October "and November, thus avoiding an eleventh. hour rush and congestion. Shop during the early hours of the day, for the reason given above. Buy useful gifts, which does no! mean that toys are to be omitted. Send all packages through the mails before December .". that there may be no competition with the more essential mails. The

put on my mask. But I guess I will get O. K. I can walk around now, but that gas, it sur" has my lungs on the bum. I knew before I went into tho fight I would get hurt. But what is that? We just trust in Cod and good luck and go after them. I tell the world, the Marne was what a soldier terms Hell. I got through that and now helped take a bill that over a million men lost .their life fighting Py;, ami the Dutch holding it. We took it O. K., and if President Wilsn wants Berlin, we will take it for him. You ought to see the boys go after them. I don't think there is a yellow American alive. They go after the Dutdi and he can't stop them with anytime.: he has of ir will get. If you a.-k one if lu? -is s;iod and he says-".0!'' And if they get one. another t.das his place and then the rest iro for him.

Has any of the Liberty boys got kill. yet? I got one for an extra in case they have. I had 11 notches on my gun and laid it down and walked o( : to fill my canteen and the dutch shot a high explosive shell and I hit th -dirt ami I looked and .-aw my gun go, up. It went up very near 100 fee I high. I thought it was going t; ;

Heaven, cause it was a good gun. It hurt me worse when I picked it up.

the stock was blown off and the wood

parts all cut up, and both sights wei

gone. I will get me another Dutchman for that and 2 or Ö extra in case they tear up another one for me. Tha was a gun I had on the Maine and I could knek a Dutchman a good half mile nearly every crack. And I'm going to put the notches on the next on-

1 get for the ones I got with the other one. I guess the worst p;ut i.- oe. now, but it is no time to "stand ar.d argue." the mestion. I got a Liter from Ethel and two pictured of the kids, Bill and Ktbel, and h it them in my overcoat. When I get back, of course I wont have any oereoat or anything. But 1 will write to sis and beg some more. Say, will you .-end n, a Liberty Herald once in a while, mi I can see what happens in town? Earl Harens got gassed on the Marso I am ahme now, but it's (). K. al that. You always have your Re.-' Friend above to look after you, as.d you know that you can get along without the rest of them, hut without I I im, you are S. O. S. over here. Well, I wlil close for this time, hoping to hear frooi you soon, 1 ivma'ti your nephew, Pvt. Thomas .1. Ray, Co. A., -Ith. Regiment Infantry. American E. F. France.
