"i received your letter several
days ago but have been a little
busy for the past week.
"1 got a fourteen day pass in
May ami went: down isi southern
France to Aivi.cs Bains, which is
in tlie Alps Mountains. 1 had a
fine time. The mountains are snow
covered just like they are in Los
Angels, California. Also Aix Les
Bains has Hot Springs like that of
Hot Springs, Arkansas; went up
on the Mountains on a cog wheel
train. 1 could see Italy and Switz
erland, I also could see ML Blanc,
which is one among the largest in
the world. I( was forty-five miles
away, but it only looked to be
about five miles away. It is a
three ’ays ride on the train from
here. I sure enjoyed the (rip fine.
"1 went thru Luxemburg, Lor
mine and France. I seen a great,
deal of the bat tle ground around
Metz, where the Germans made
iheir last stand.
”1 guess you remember Ralph
Freeman, he use to live at Moore N
Mill, lie is now a Lieutenant in
my Company and in charge of the
First platoon, that is the platoon I
am in. Ralph sure makes a fim
officer. I don't mind .soldiering
under him. He was one of the
first to come over, and was in ail
!he great drives.
1 don't think 1 will be home bv
the "Ith” but probably ! will be
home by Xmas.”
“My Brother’s Keeper.”
This splendid little comedy
drama, directed by Miss Emily
Curts, was rendered by a company
of local talent at the school au<li
lorium last Monday night.
it was the most successful!,
rendered play the editor has ever
seen presented by Pearson talent.
One thing that, was pleasing, the
players had learned their parks
thoroughly. The success of any
[dramatic performance depends
upon this one point. Articulation,
gesticulation and posing are sec
jondary, and can be easily acquired
when the play has been thorough
ly memorized.
Ili.s to be regretted that the
financial end was not what it
should have been. Miss Curls
says she was disappointed but not
discouraged. It was the result of
the very inclement weather, provi
dential causes.

Prevent Hog Cholera,
The B. A. Thomas Hog Powder
has a record of 95 per cent, cures
of J log Cholera If you feed your
hogs as directed, you need never
fear hog disease. And the direc
tions are very simple, just about
w hat you are doing, plus a lew
cents worth of 11. A. Thomas' Hog
Powder in the feed twice a week.
Fsually, though. Cholera gels
in before w>‘ know if. Then it re
quires close attention to each hog
—each hog must he dosed —and il
you will dose them as directed,
you will save better than 90 per
