Dec, 16, 1918,
Friend Ted :
I am well and happy, feeling fine and
I hope you folks are all thesame. Well,
I expect to spend Christmas heré in a
little village called Proven, oaly three
miles from the French border. I am
still in Belgium and only thirty-six
miles from the docks that they call Dun-
kirk, You have read of that place; it
was shelled from the sea by Germany
and bombed by air, I will say thisis an
awful climate, You know, I haven't
seen the sun shine in seven weeks, and
mud over your shoe tops. It 1s called
Flanders mud. I guess you know that
mud caused over 75,000 English troops
to die here. It is like quick sand and,
say, there isn't a place ten yards square
that hasn't got a few shell holes in it,
and 1 was all over the city of Ypres try-
ing to find a dugout but failed. I slept
under that big tower made of glass, that
they never found out yet how they made
the glass. The inventor died with the
secret.
Well, Ted, I have lots of interesting
things to tell you as I have friends here
that speak fine English and they give
me all the details, and I am good at
asking questions, and you know it.
Well, 1 guess I will ask you to give all
my regards and I thank you very much
for the paper.
I am as always, your friend in Bel-
gium,

A SOLDIER'S DREAM.

I dreamed the war was over ;
We were leaving the city of Fismes.
We were down at the floats
Getting on to the boats,
Holly gee! How glad it did seem.
The river Vesle just looked like the
Hudson
It was then I arose from my trance,
For the H. E.'s were exploding, and
old Jerry was unloading,
It was then I knew I was in France.
