North Liberty Man Writes From War Zone

CHICAGO VICE FIGHTER ROTARY CLUB GUEST

1 'rank .Johns'on, tirst assistant pro-, cutin'-r attorney to Maclay Ih.yne of Chicago, was the principle speaker at the dinner of the anmlal Kotary (dub picnic wivtn at the Cliain-o'-Iakes Country club last evening. He described the vice trusts of Chieauo and his woik in combatin; organized vice. He also explained the various workings of the clairvoyant trusts. wire tappers, hurwlars and piek-p'cVfts. In speaking of tli" harriers on the way of law and order he said that the two enatest were political intluence and the indifference of the hotter class of men to recognize their duty to the public by serving e,n juries and aiding the enforcement of law. Mr. .Johnston was introduced by Frank Herinu'. toastmaster of the evening. Others on the program were the Poiarin- quartet, which san medleys of the popular soncs and Mrs. Casey, who rendered the new sons of the allies, Smile, Smile, Smile." To top off the evening.

WELLS-FARGO MEN ENLIST AS COOKS Three Wells Farn employes of the South Ib-nd branch of the company enlisted yesterday at the South Ibnd army recruiting station as cooks in the quartermaster's corps.

From the war zone comes the following letter, written 1-y H. L. .McKesson of North Liberty, who sailed m the Mongolia with the medical corps from Northwestern university. The Mongolia was the ship on which the two nur?es were killed. The letter was addressed to Mrs. O. p. Maxey. 1121 K. Donald St., South Fend, u fister of Mr. McKesson. pear Sister: Your letter of the I'lst of May received about the lth of June, so you see how our mail travels. A big hunch of mall conies in every three cr four days, depending on the boats coming over. I suppose you have been more anxious about my f-cttin? over here than ou were if you had known

4thrt we had no protection only our

guns on board. They proved to be quite enough as I had a hunch they would. We were attacked by submarines about a day out from Eng

land but our gunners gave a. sood

account of themselves and we str; ck land on top instead of at the bottom as wo thought for a while we might be forced to do. Someone said our ship was reported sunk, but don't you believe it. I saw it safe in port myself at Falmouth. We spent a week in England at Flockpool near Liverpool. The Yankee is quite an attraction here or there at least. We came to France about June l." and after a couple of days of preliminary foollnpr around we relieved an English unit who are going some place else as soon as everything is working nicely. The weather here is wet. hut the scenery Is nice, hilly, etc. We are so far back we are in no danger whatever but wc get near the war when their men come down shot up. They think the Avar will end this fall. Our sleeping and eating accommodations are about as I exrectea. We sleep in a tent on straw mats and good blankets. Most of our eats cime from the good old IT. S. A. and consist of much canned goods. One advantage we have is that of getting news early from the front. We get London papers every day. They do not do so well as our home papers but they help some. Send me a South Fend paper once in a while. Our news here is not much. From your brother. II. D. McK.
