FRANK EATON III FIRST LINE ACTION

"I am clogs .enough to the first line to see Bocheland ," writes Frank Eaton, serving with the 29th Engineers. In a letter to his parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. C. Eaton, 122 North Seventeenth Btreet. . "Or . rather." he adds, 'I can see what was Bocheland, butNwbat will not be soon." "I can hear shells whistle overhead every once In a while some Boche and more our own. I am between our batteries and the trenches, and therefore hear both shells going over. "The first day We arrived at this place the Germans had to show their respects bo they sent a few shells. One burst only a short distance from me. One surely can He flat when one of them comes close. You can hear coming and can tell by the noise whether they are coming close or not. Of course you don't have a lot of time to get to cover or lie down. It don't usually take long. You don't know how you get there, but the main thing is you are there. Another thing, one doesn't have to be taught this either, It came natural. . We are billeted In a small town which has been pretty well shot up and is a little over a mile from the ' first line trenches. Our billets are good, well reenforced with steel, logs and stone, so not much danger of being chased out by shell fire We are fed as good asswe are back in the States, so we don't starve by a whole

lot, and I don't think we will, I haven't got any cooties yet, but I can't tell when I will hit a nest.

Americans Doing Great Work in All Stages of Game) Writes Hiatt

. "Americans are doing great . work In every stage of the game," says Sergeant Otto P. Hiatt in a letter to his parents. , "They keep us as busy behind the lines as they doat the front. I am now at a rest camp. Since I am now far away from the place where I was when I last wrote I shall tell you that I was in the big drive between Rheinls and Soissons. I saw things that would be unbelievable to anyone. The Americans are doing great work. It takes the American to trick the Boche. The Germans are beginning to realize that they are up against it, and their fighting spirit is poor. They have suffered heavy losses , during- the past two months, where ours have been practically nothing. "I have talked to some German prisoners, young kids and old men.

Some say they have had their nose full, others more ignorant say they are fighting for bread, and if they stop Germany will starve. "The first thing they want is something to "eat after they are captured, and if their captors are American they ask immediately if they, will be sent to America. "I am now chief of the fourth gun section. There are some fine fellows in my . section and I am going to try to make a record on my next trip to the front My battery, with troops of the second division passed in review for General Pershing and several French and British generals. It. was

a wonderful sight to see them.

"We are having the best of weather

and I am in fine health. . Have pa

tience for it won't be long until it Is

all over." - Hiatt is with Batery C. 17 F. A.

Rumania's Queen Cheers Soldiers With Hopes of New Fight Against Hun

PARIS, Oct. 1 (Correspondence of The Associated Press) Queen Marie, Rumania's heroic "soldier queen," wept when the gallant Rumanian army was demobilized by order of the Germans; but she declared that it would not be for long, that Rumania would fight again. - The disbanding of the army of 300.000 soldiers was one of the stern

measures forced upon Rumania by thai

terms of Germany's humiliating and uncompromising peace treaty. Emperor William of Germany gave King Ferdinand of Rumania just one month in which to strip his army of all its power,; In a great open stretch of land at the foot of the rugged Carpathian mountains, not far from the Austrian frontier, the queen, accompanied by the king and the royal family, reviewed the regiments of officers and soldiers who had fought so bravely during the eighteen months that Rumania faced the four formidable foes that surrounded her. As each division passed along the line of march, there were repeated demonstrations, shouts of acclaim, and many marks of affection on the part of the troops for their beloved queen, whom they revere with a devotion almost as fervid as that shown by the French soldier for the memory of Joan of Arc.

On the way to the review every in

habitant of the villages through which

the queen passed gave- her a demon

stration so overwhelming and spon

taneous that she herself acknowledged later that it was the greatest sin

gle tribute she had received at the hands of the people since the beginning of the war. There could be no doubt even in the mind of the firmest pacifist that Rumania's fighting

queen bad the loyal and wholehearted support of the entire population in

her struggle to stave off a humiliating

peace with Germany.

As the men who had fought on the sanguinary field of Marasestl, which

is the Gettysburg of Rumania, march

ed by, each bearing on his breast the coveted "Michael the Brave" medal for gallantry, the queen broke into tears and, turning to the king, who

stood beside her, said, in a voice that betrayed deep emotion:

"What a tragedy that this magni

ficent army must lay down its arms! But, please God, -it shall not be for

long! I repeat iC it shall not be for

long! Germany by her might and brutishness may subdue, but she can never crush the spirit and will of my soldiers. With God's help, we will fight again, and I pray that the day is not far off. My soul will never rest until the honor of the country Is vindicated before the eyes of our allies."

Portuguese Soldiers Show Admiration for Yankee Troops

By Associated Press) LISBON, Sept 24. Portuguese soldiers who have taken part In many battles in France are filled with admiration for their latest allies the American troops. This was evident just recently when a Russian vessel came Into the port of Lisbon bringing back about 4,000 Portuguese troops, Including wounded, sick and leave men, returning to his country to recuperate. A number of these war-worn soldiers of Portugal, in their stained and torn uniforms, just as they had left the French battlefields, were passing along a street in the Portuguese capital on the evening of their arrival, when a group of American soldiers from a warship in the Tagus came along In the opposite direction. The Portuguese came to a sudden halt, raised their caps and shouted: "Viva Os Americanos!" Soon the boys in white from the New World and those In grey from the old world were shaking hands and clapping each other on the shoulders like old comrades. Conversation between them was impossible owing to their ignorance of each other's language, but the feeling of comradeship was there and soon the enthusiasm spread to the surhounding civilians who broke out into cheers. These returning Portuguese soldiers for the greater part, had comelnto contact with the American troops in France some in the battle line and

others at the bases in the rear and all had learned to respect and even admire their comrades from across the Atlantic. All of them were convinced

the Germans had no more chance of

winning now that the Americans had

joined the Allies and were coming, over in constantly -increasing num bers. They were full of wonder at the wonderful discipline of the American troops and at the good feeling existing between the officers and men, which they regard as much of a great help

to soldiers in the fighting line.
