THURSDAY EVENING,
Letters From the Front
Waiting For atCommission; On the Firing Line; Just
Before the Big Drive
Some Interesting letters from Har
rlsburg beys at the Iront In France
and elsewthere have been received
by their fslends this week. One of
these boys who haa been attending
with one orttwo other Harrisburgers
an artillery school in Franoe, writes
interestingly of the hopeful attitude
of the. young candidate while wait
ing for a commission after the pre
scribed course of Instruction. Hear
him:
"Another Sunday and I'm still
loafing about here, waiting for some
kindly person to come along, pin a
gold bar on my shoulder and say:
'On your way, young man; you are
now one of the Army's greatest
drawbacks, a second lieutenant,'
whereupon I should blossom forth in
fine raiment and a Sam Brown belt,
and hie me forth to do battle."
At Last
"At last I've arrived. I was com
missioned Monday afternoon and at
the same time given my travel or
ders to report here. Well, you can
just about imagine what an excited
gang we were that evening. We took
the oath in the afternoon at 5 o'clock
so that all of us stood retreat that
evening all dressed up in our new
clothes. And you ought to have
seen the display! Solomon himself
was a poor piker, so far as glorious
raiment was concerned! Monday
night about half the fellows left for
all parts of the globe and Tuesday
noon the rest of us followed suit.
"The next morning (Wednesday)
we came up here and I discovered to
my great joy that I was assigned
to a battery in the 113 th. command
ed by Captain Harris, whose brother
Johnny was 1915 at New Haven and
one of the lieutenants was Allen
Douglass in my class at college. "
• •
"Torture"
"This morning 1 had to give them
drill all morning, one hour in gas
masks, which was torture. We have
to wear them an hour each day, no
matter what we may be doing.
"Isn't the present news wonder
ful! I'm wishing I could be up with
them."
"If only more men—many more—
would realize that they are needed
and needed at onco how much bet
ter it would be, for I firmly believe
that the manpower of the United
States is going to be the deciding
factor. It must be—and they're
waiting for us now. If they would
only stop haggling over petty poli
tics for awhile and get in some real
work. Well, far be it from me to
criticise our government, for they've
done wonderfully well, I suppose,!
but there are so many things, too,
that they seem to have fallen down!
on —airplanes, for example. We;
don't know what to think when we|
read that sort of stuff."
Celebrating In Style
"The glorious Fourth was cele
brated in great style—games in j
which the French participated, pre-1
sentation of a flag to the school byj
some one or other—very doggy—all i
the French officers out with their |
six-inch sabers strapped on—great:
stuff; airplane overhead diving at the
crowd, etc. Then in the evening thej
amateur performance, put on by ai
bunch of the candidates—'Cest la
Guerre!" I had a slick time playing
in the orchestra. Again blessed the
inspiration which led me to bring the
mandolin along. The thing was aw
fully well put on—take offs on all
the instructors. The French officers
thought it was wonderful, howled
their heads off most of the time. The

Calls Brief
IN ordinary times we have encouraged
the fullest use of the telephone for all
social, business and domestic purposes.
These are war times! Every industrial ana
commercial activity is going at top speed.
This activity is reflected in the telephone
calling volumes and demands for telephone
service.
We request all telephone users to conserve
telephone usage; to assist us in our service
by eliminating all unnecessary calls; by mak
ing only the necessary calls —and these as
brief as possible. Your co-operation in this
will permit the release of lines and opera

telephone calls.

"The mall service Is rotten—worse
than that! I've had one letter from
the States In the last four weeks.
I don't understand it at all. (Charley
Taft just came in to tell me that
there are 1 some letters over at the
school for me so I'll suspend fur
ther imprecations until 1 discover
what goes on)."
Near the Big Guns
Captain Edward J. Stackpole, Jr.,
of Company M. 110 th Regiment, In
fantry, writes from a point near the
front under date of July 2. • • •
"The Germans haven't spotted us yet
from outward Indications although
we can frequently hear shells burst-
I ing in the neighboring towns and
j several times daily we find it neces
! sary to stop our drill and take
cover to avoid flying Boches. We
saw them bring down a German
plane to-day. French troops pass
•here in large numbers and the town
in which we are billeted Is almost
bare of civilians. • • •
"Day after to-morrow being July
4th, I am going to provide them
j (the company) with pies and pud
ding, if the Y. M. C. A. men can get
me the ingredients from Paris in
time. If they are late, we'll cele 1 -
brate the Fourth from the viewpoint
of the stomach at a later date.
sea
"There is a ,Y. M. C. A. canteen
with our battalion permanently now
and it is a great help In keeping the
men satisfied in their rest hours.
'Service' is their motto all right and
the work they are doing Is greatly
appreciated by officers and men
alike. We only realize their value
when they are not available and the
men have no tobacco or writing pa
per.
"This army game is a busy one, I
find. Just as soon as a pile of ac
cumulated work is plowed through
and you think it is going to be easy
sailing for a day or so, along comes
a batch of orders and memoranda
and you wallow in work again up to
the neck."
A Poor Joke
Under date of July 10 Captain
Stackpole writes from "In the Woods
of France," that the previous night
was spent ten or fifteen feet under
ground in a shell-proof dugout of the
battalion commander, French infan
try. with whose organization he was
spending a few days acquiring useful
knowledge and observing Boche ter
ritory from the hills. He says fur
ther: "There have been nightly
bombardments, but always on the
part of the French, so that the
whistling shells that pass constantly
over the woods where I dwell have a
pleasing sound rather than terrify
; ing. One sleeps here in day time
land keeps awake at night, but not|
from choice."
He tells of intensive artillery fire'
of the French and of the breaking'
down of the walls of a town less than !
a mile distant: also of eating with!
French officers in a camouflaged'
room at a camouflaged table. He'
also narrates interesting experiences
with a French adjutant and his
amusing efforts to acquire American
slang.
"Two French soldiers of this regi
ment, who were captured by the
Boche early in June, escaped and re
turned to their regiment to-day.
They declare that they were treated
badly and given leaves instead of!
vegetables. They say also that the
German officers are doping it out to
their men that there are no Amer-I
ican soldiers in France: that we are'
English. It is a poor joke at best;
and will make the German staff sick!
some day scon."
ior. will be deferred, pending the
adjustment of his familv affairs. Tt
is believed he will decided to go to
England.

HJLRJUSBURG TELEGRAPH
GRAVES TO HEAD
TROOPS U.S. WILL
SEND TO SIBERIA
2,500 Philippine Troops Will
Form Nucleus of the
Expedition
Washington, Aug. B.—General
| Peyton C. March, chief of staff, yes
terday declared the American mili
tary expediUon to Russia would be
just as the President portrayed it In
his memorandum.
"There will be no eastern front in
Russia," he added.
The regiments of regular troops j
from the Philippines will form the ]
vanguard of the expediUon General
March said. Later they will be re
i inforcd by troops from the United
j States. The Philippine regiments
I are not now of war strength, and
| aggregate probably not more than
2500 men. General March's state
j ment follows:
j "The United States has organized
|an expedition to Siberia. The officer
selected to command this expedition
is Major General William S. Graves,
who Is now in command of the
Eightieth division. Camp Freihont,
Cal. The nucleus of the American
fofce in Siberia will come from the
Philippines and will consist of the
Thirty-seventh and Thirty-first regi
ments of regular Infantry. That force
will be supplemented by other troops
sent from the United States. The
purpose of organization of the expe
dition has been announced by the
President through the state depart
ment, and I need not refer to that
further. The force is relatively
small and is not for the purpose of
establishing an eastern front in Rus
sia, but for the purpose set forth in
the President's memorandum, and
no other." •
Colonels Stier and Taggart will be
,In command of the two regiments
the general said. He also said he
would announce the arrival of Gen
eral Graves in Vladivostok as soon
as he reaches there.
General March was unable to con
firm the report that American troops
had been landed at Kandalaska.
"Kandalaska is south of Kola, on
the Murman railroad, where it
touches the Kandalak gulf on the
White sea," he said, "and the only
dispatch I have seen does not say
that American troops were there,
but tjjat American trops had landed
at Areha,ngel. I have seen no dis
patches anyyhere that American
troops are at Kandalaska, and, so
' far as I know, they are not there."
