and repairs had route through country and parades for inspec tion We left there about six rode on train all Sunday night and lauded in about miles of the trenches about oclock and stayed there till some time hi till night and Tuesday morn ing We landed in here We are about miles from thetrenches so they say ere arc of us In an apartment about and we have slept and ate and stayed in that for and this makes 1 days and we are very coin fori able We have lots of fun and share everything togeth er The fellows that with me are Corp It Itichards T Cobb Wilson Woods and The hist two are Sutton is

Main Street is in an awfully dirty condition owing to the- soft Weather this week This street is under the Good System of York County and must come in for permanent repairs next Spring It is time the of Sewage for the residents of this was put into more definite shape Something of a perma nent nature must be done before street is paved The sug gestion is made of a Trunk Sew er at the rear of the properly which is a capital idea but plans and of the same should be in some of shape to present to Hie ratepayers at the Nomina tion Meeting next month Nothing will improve the Town so much as a paved street bin when once laid it does not want to be disturbed is time to get over this necessary work There arc quite a lot of the Flying Corps here We see them flying and practising every day that wo have been hero I lo go up in thorn and fly around Willi thorn It is only about an hours run from here to the trenches We might lake an excursion out to see thorn Of it may be hot there but it might help lo dry up the mud that is here and it is certainly muddy You can clean your boots in the morning and- In about minutes tramping around you would think that we them for a month but it will wash off in time Of course it might he worse for as long as you can Keep your feel dry and have a dry place to sleep in you may think thai you are well off- II seems funny bore serv ed out rations of water as well as food Last night we bought bread and was the shape of a wheel about in thick and in diameter It was baked in a lile oven and it certainly tasted good The country part of Prance is more like Canada than England is anil the crops and roots are mortnke Canada I saw as good a crop of mangels as ever saw in Canada but lhe grain crops dont seem as good Of course it might have been on account the war Hut we may see some heller crops be fore we leave France We dont know yet whether we are live in tents or billets or in box hut I prefer he billets as billets are either in villages or towns In the village near hero are quite a lot of the troops billeted in fact it seems to be a place to give lhe troops a rest We dont know yet what we will do as we havent been assigned to any sort of work yet but by he time that you get this may know for sure what we are going lo do but will take some lime lo And out what every man is best filled for As most of the 1 men are bright and intelligent they can do most ev erything from railroad work car- to mason work or guard r or lie vim drill quite us on guurd coming over oh Hie boat tho sick but ba the best wo Thoboal couldtravol I Its or dinary speed was- knots hour but it could or more and it wasnt bigger an lhe a would have a time Crowding on but wo got in all rlglUvThe train that Wo travelled everything wagons tanks and men long train it would be One engine it most the wayi but part of wo bad have or learns and about or to wagons and and men bill I havent heard the exact number ypt Our officers arc lino They all scorn lo think of the faro or lhe and to gel foe them lo make them comfortable And they seem to think thai they wouldnt ask the men to do what they wouldnt do themselves you can thai tlie men ought to be satisfied with their lot I heard of any olb- troops being used as good Well this is Friday noon As I didnt get my letter off yester day I ought thai would write a Tew more lines I havent rc- that parcel or any loiters since I left WUiey was out about or A miles to the south east last night the road are very much like St but tho soil is heavy clay with lots if lime in if Home places coming along were almost clear I saw as line a dappled last night as I ever saw In fact there were three of them- together but thy one was the prize of the lot They certainly have some line horses cattle and sheep around here They dont seem to think of frost for some wore pulling mangels and the tops were as green as ever and some were digging potatoes There are very few pulling turnips yet We are a fatigue party to gel wood for the battalion today and we certainly have some time gel too theroftcoms lo be very little dead wood around and the green stuff Isnt lhe kind that burns good A Frenchman told that closest the Germans are now is 10 miles Of can hear our guns They captured Germans and quite a lot of ma chine guns ami some say some cations also two aircraft ma chines The German prisoners here that will be over by Christmas so some of the boys say too but to my mind the French have to buckle down lo work and drive Ihem back on Ger man soil for I think the Germans wont give up till they do There are a few Canadians havent heard what battalions they be longed to before they landed for you know as soon as land they lose their battalion and are drafted into a certain divi sion- I dont think that there is one battalion that wenl as a unit for some lime There arc thousands of men al Hie base camps thai havent been used yet We havent heard yet whether we are going into tents or I think Co is the only Co so far that lias gone into tents I heard yesterday that we are going to move on some other place and be billeted out I hope it is true as where we are is no place for a camping ground lo keep the men dry and com fortable to sleep as the ground holds water so Well I guess lliat 1 will close Hoping to bear from you soon I am Yours E f OH PATTERNS is Here More Buy your Present v As usuM we are
