16 Letters F rom the Front POSSIBILITY OF U-BOAT BOBBING UP MAKES LIFE ON TRANSPORT EXCITING Making a trip across the ocean on one of the U. S. transports proved to be one of the most interesting incidents in the life of i'Evan J. Miller, who is a member of the U. S. Base Hospital No. 8, American Expedition Forces, France. In a letter to his father, Herman C. Miller, Senate Librarian, he states his transport was convoyed by U. S. warships and at no time during the trip did they meet any sight of a submarine. Nearing the shores of England each one on board was re quired to wear a life preserving suit, as a protection against any possible danger. Miller is satisfied with the life of a soldier and speaks well of the treatment that he has received since he donned the khaki. His letter follows: I received a note from Dick Miller a few days ago. He is with the Twenty-first London Field Ambu lance, which Is connected with the British expeditionary forces. He hap pened to ' meet one of our doctors, who had gone up to where Dick is stationed, and found out my address from him. As soon as this doctor comes back here, I will be able to find out more about Dick. No doubt he is in a place where he can get lets of practical experience, with perhaps a little excitement on the side. He is a good ways from here, and I doubt if I get to see him over here, although you never can tell. Those packages which you sent me will, no doubt, come through all right. The number of our unit has been changed back to what it was formerly, so is now —U. S. Base Hos pital No. 8, American Expeditionary Forces, France. I think the Red Cross objected to | our number being changed, so we were changed to what we were at tirst, although the change has no other significance. I hope there will be no confusion about our letters reaching us, with all these changes. So far letters have been coming over in about two weeks and I think I have been receiving all that 1 should geti Across in l.lner As you already know, we left Gov einor's Island on the seventh of Au gust. We had to get up at 4.30, and then proceeded to pack up and have everything ready so that we could leave at 9.45. We went through prac tically the same procedure as when we left the island the first time, and although we dare not give the name of the boat we came over on, 1 will say that there was very little dis appointment in our ranks when we saw what boat it was, for we knew just about what quarters we would get. In these liners which are con verted into transports, there are vari ous compartments or quarters which hold a hundred to two hundred men. We had No. 2 upper for our quarters, which was, I suppose, the best place on the boat. There was another unit in the hold Just below us, and we felt quite elated that we had the upper berth, as there was more air The Llqald Wash far SHa Disease We have witrewed such reaaarkable com with thii soothlut wash of oil* that we offer you a bottle on the (uanuitee that ualeaa it doe* the tarn* for you, it Costa you Dot a ceilU tic 50c and SI.OO. lirortr A.

The bunks were built three high, and I was fortunate enough to obtain one of the top ones. The advantage of the top berth" was that there was more head room, and there were also racks above where you could place your clothing or other articles when you went to bed. Another advantage was that you were never disturbed by the other fellows getting in and out of their bunks, as you did most of the dis turbing yourself. The bunks were fairly comfortable after you got used to them. I slept in my bunk every night except one. That one night I was a member of the ship's guard, and when I was on guard duty 1 slept on the floor of the guardhouse, but more of that later. I'ortholea Darkened The portholes, which opened into our No. 2 upper, were closed at night so that no light would get out, and not much light would ha\ l e gotten out for all that we had were a couple of electric lamps covered with blue glass. They were, however, sufficient for all the work we wanted to do, which . was mainly to get Into our bunks at night and get up in the morning. We were not the only boat to come over, as there were several others. We were, of course, convoyed, and we spent much of our time watching the other boats. One morning: after the mist cleared off, we found that one of the other boats was missing, but a little later we saw it 'way ott and after a time it joined us. The other men who were on our transport were pretty nice fellows, and were not the same bunch we started off with before. Almost every evening- there would be a boxing match, or some sort of entertainment. One night we gave a minstrel show, and another night the nurses gave a vaudeville show, which was very cleverly gotten up. We had a bridge tournament among the fellows of our unit, and the winners were supposed to get a prize from our commandant, but so far the prize has not ap peared. I was one of the winners, so I ought to know. Lifeboat Drill On board ship we had lifeboat drills every once in a while. We were each assigned to a certain boat or raft, and when the whistle or horn blew for the drill we all went to the boats as quickly as possible and put on life preservers, which were kept in nearby boxes. The last few days we kept our preservers with us all the time, and the guards used to have a great time telling the fellows to go back and get their life preservers after they had their meals, or when they were going up on deck. Some of the fellows slept up on deck, but I did not try it, as it was much more comfortable in our bunks. One night it started to rain and blow so that all of the deck sleepers were forced to go below. Plnced on Guard One night I was on the ship's guard from' 12 to 2. There were eighteen posts on the boat where the guards were stationed. The post I had this night was on the port side of the boat, at the steps leading down from the promenade deck. At 12, when 1 was put on guard, the moon was Just coming up directly in front of the boat. It looked at first like a boat on flro as the point of the moon was just coming up. My duty was to see that there were no lights and to preserve order, which was not very difficult, for at that time of night there was no one around. It started to rain for a few minutes, but the moon was still visible and I was just able to see the other trans ports alongside of us. The cloud ef fects were wonderful, and after I had been on my post for some time. I became aware of the northern lights. It looked like a big rainbow across the sky, but, of course, there were no colors, only this bright circle. The guardrom, where the guard slept when oft duty, was what was formerly the smokingroom. There was not very much room in it and when the fellows stretched them selves out on the floor there was tin vacant space. When you were called out you had to feel your way around in the dark, and it was more or less a certainty that you would step on some other fellow's legs, or perhaps his face. I was on the ship's guard a couple of times and was on guard in quarters a couple of times, and one day it was the duty of our unit to see that the ship was kept clean. That day I had to sweep around the promenade deck. We were - not al lowed to throw anything overboard, so that there was always quite a lot of candy boxes and orange peels to clean up. There was a canteen on board where we could buy oranges, candy and tobacco. As I had bought a box of chocolate bars in New York before I left 1 saw to it that I was never any hungrier than I wanted to be with the aid of gumdrops anu butter scotch and oranges from the canteen. The food on the transport, although you wouldn't get fat on It, war of sufficient quantity that you could usually get enough to eat. The sea was quite calm all except one or two days, and practically no one was sick. Several fellows who have crossed quite a few times said they never saw it so calm. One of the fellows in our unit had been on our transport before, but then he was traveling first-class, and he told us that it was on this boat that he met the girl whom he has since married. A few days before reaching land we were met by several destroyers, and they were of very much assist ance in seeing that we reached our destination safely. X think you were notified what day we landed in France. Needless to say, we were very glad when we sighted land, but w had more excitement after we did sight land than during all the rest on the trip. We sighted land about 8.30 in the morning and until a.bout 10 o'clock there wer more or less doing around to keep us busy. We readied the dock in the afternoon, but did not leave the boat until the next day, when we came directly to — ; and have been here ever since, and no doubt will stay here unless something unforeseen should turn up. I will try to write next time what we are doing here and what sort or country it is here. With love to all. EVAN J. MILLER.

GERMAN MORALE BREAKS; TALK OF A REPUBLIC Soldiers Desert Under Strain of Facing Terrible Fire Constantly Hurled From Allies' Guns By Associated Press With the British Armies in France and Belgium. Oct. 25.—The consoli dation of the positions won by the allies in Monday's attack was being rapidly completed to-day. under a bright sun which is mitigating some what the difficulties of the work in the morass-like ground. Active artil lery fire marked the nigfit in the re gion to the east and north of Ypres. The British big guns have never ceased to pour a devastating fire into the German positions along the Flanders battlefront, and the enem: has responded vigorously. Last night the Germans directed a heavy fire against the sector between the Ypres- Menirr highway and the Ypres-Rou lers railway and also concentrated on Abraham Heights, which are on the Cravenstafel Ridge, southwest of Passchendaele. Fall In Counterattack Shortly before dark last evening i the enemy •launched a counterattack' against the British to the south of | Houtholst Forest near the junction with the French, but this was re pulsed with machine-gun and rifle (ire. Both the French and British were holding strongly their new po sitions In this difficult territory on the edge of the forest. The assertion in the German offi cial statement that the British on Monday also attacked on both sides of Gheluvelt and were repulsed is en tirely erroneous, as no such attack was made. The British offensive was confined to operations along a nar row front several miles north of Ghe luvelt. Germans Mutiny The reports that British troops had found a German officer who had been executed by his own soldiers, the tody having the hands bound behind the back, has been confirmed. The incident occurred at a redoubt south of Poelcappelle during the recent fighting. There were fourteen Ger man soldiers and young officers hold ing this place. When the British troops stormed this redoubt the Ger man soldiers surrendered and the British found the dead officer with five bullet wounds in his body. The reason for his execution was that the men desired to surrender and he re fused to give up his stronghold with out a struggle. Morale Broken This affair is another line tending to substantiate statements made by prisoners that the German officers commanding certain bodies of troops along the Flanders front are losing control over their men. There Is no doubt; that there has been a very | considerable deterioration In the morale of many of the German troops In this region. But the German fight- . ing machine Is recognized as still being a powerful one. One noncommissioned officer be longing to n Bavarian division, who was captured about the middle of October, said that desertions in the d rear areas were very frequent and cited the case of thirteen men of his own company who had deserted a: fortnight before, declaring that they were going home. Some of them were arretted on the way, but others actually reached their homes. I'lan Republic Four of these men were brought back to their oompany as prisoners. He added that ttAi was not an excep tional case. An eoually interesting statement was made by a captured officer of the guard reserve division who had joined his regiment in the middle of October. He declared that the mo rale in Germany was very bad and I that the civilians were raising an ■ outcry as to why the war was being | prolonged. Throughout the country, he said, there was talk of an end to | the Hohenzollerns and the establish- j ment of a republic. The morale in hiß own division he characterized as bad, although formerly it had been good. , ( all 1020 Clans This officer further said that the i authorities had already called up the 1920 class in Brunswick. Germany - was suffering from a serious short age of horses and there was a great i which the manufacture of tents had j scarcity of canvas, as a result of ' virtually ceased, huts being erected ] Instead. Danes Reticient Over Nation's Export Plans ■ Copenhagen, Oct. 25. —Danish of-J flcials are reticent concerning the i recent American statement in re gard to embargo policies. Respon- \ Bible authorities refrain from dis- i cussing the subject while negotia- j tions in Washington are pending! but express the hope that the Dan-i ish commercial delegates may sue-! ceed in mtking some arrangements! with the United States. The news-1 papers published the American I statement more or less fully but! have shown more or less restraint in ! discussing the subject. In the business work, however, [ the opinion is expressed freely that j Denmark must and will maintain itsi export trade as long as possible. CAMP HILL CASE • ARGUED IN COURT! • 1 People of Borough and East 1 Pennsboro Township At- | tend Annexation Hearing Carlisle, Pa., Oct. 25.—Sixty resi dents of Camp Hill and vicinity in terested in the annexation of a large portion of East Pennsboro township to the borough of Camp Hill, came to Carlisle this morning to attend j the hearing on the question in Cum- i berland county court. No witnesses ' were heard to-day, but the argument was based on testimony given before the grand jury several months ago. Attorneys Fillmore Maust and Ed ward M. Biddle, Jr., represented the remonstrants, a few of the people of East Pennsboro township; G. Wilson Swartz represented the supervisor of East Pennsboro township, and A. M. Bowman represented the borough and people of Camp Hill, as well us some of the township people who seek annexation. Attorney Biddle for the remon strants, claimed that a majority of the residents of the outlying districts were opposed to annexation, and that they would receive no benefits by consolidation. He said that after annexation one thousand acres of unimproved land would be included in the borough limits of Camp Hill. Attorney Bowman, for the Camp Hill side, said that 'some residents of : S Women! Keep It On Dresser! i W Never Let Corns Ache Twice Instantly!

Decision will probably be given by the court in a Bhort time. U. S. Must Play Big Part to Win World Conflict By Associated Press' London, Oct. 24.—That a ten days' inspection of the efforts of England and Prance to make war had altered all his views towards the conflict was the declaration to-day of Rep resentative Clarence B. Miller, ol Minnesota, member of the foreign relations committee of the House. "I am now convinced," he said, "that the part America must plaj to bring the war to a successful Is sue is vastly more Important thar I ever had imagined. Furthermore I now see this is a war of people: as well as of armies and this ipakes it all the more evident that Amer ica's wealth and mar power must be given to it. "For the first time In history thi British people are keenly alive t< America and her people. I believi that Greit Britain and America havi been drawn closely together to i better understanding in the pas year than in any time in history.'
