The following interesting letter was received from Earnest "Wallen gren from the front in France, written before the declaration of peace, but his sizing up of the sit uation, was about correct, as to the termination of the fighting. Here is his letter, see what he says: Somewhere in France, October 15, 1918. Dear Brother: As re all take a turn about guarding for gas, and as I am sitting in my dugout, about thirtjfive feet under ground;" and everybody asleep I will try and drop you a few lines anyhow, to let you know that I re ceived your letter and am in the best of health, and getting a plen ty to cat, and that the Kaiser left us a pretty good bed. so we are sitting pretty keen.

Kaiser had for four years until the "Yanks" routed him out. But the only thing he left was a few "cooties" for pets. TVe are now where we can hear the Kaiser, when he sends his message ever. He has a whistle attached to his message.

But of course that is not the way to look at it as you are not any better than the rest of the boys that are "Over Here."

ARE EXPECTED TO CLOSE BUSINESS SOON From Saturday's Dallv. A bulletin was received yester day by the local board, in which il is made known to that body, that the business of the board is to be closed up by December ninth, and all the business sealed. In some ways this will make the local boards go some, as there are some technical cases which it is difficult to work in the short time. The work as a general thing which is voluminous, is being push ed ahead by the local board here, and with the force which they have on the job, all adepts to rapid and precise work, the work is being passed into history very rapidly. LETTER FROM 'TONY' KOBECK From Saturday's Dally. A letter and a copy of the Trench and Camp, was received this morn ing from Tony Kobeck. who is at a camp in California, saying that all were getting along in fine condi tion in the west, and praising the Y. M. C. A. and Knights of Colum bus, for the work they are doing at the camps, and saying they are pro viding entertainment and ' many comforts for the boys which they would sadly miss if it was not for them. Mr. Kobeck said that he did not know how long they would stay at camp, but did not expect long, as it was rumored that the soldiers would be demobilized, and the Camp abandoned, in the near fu ture. Mrs. Captain It. II. Hastain and friend Miss Mignon Blanchard. who have been visiting In the city since yesterday, returned to the Agnew home in Omaha this afternoon. 71 BIG H WAR SHIPS GIVEN IIP TO THE ALLIES FIVE AMERICAN BATTLESHIPS IN ALLIED NAVAL ESCORT; ANOTHER FLOTILLA OF SUB MARINES SURRENDERED.

Sir David Beatty, today, correspondents say that after all the German ships had been taken over, the British admiral come through the line on the Queen Elizabeth, every allied vessel being - manned and greeting the admiral and the flagship with loud and ringflTg cheers.

FORCES OF AMERICA BEGIN MOVEMENT TOWARD HOME Headquarters of the American First Army, Nov. 22. While as an effective military force the Ameri can army remains intact, the home ward movement has already begun. Construction of all kinds has been stopped and contracts and deliveries canceled where possible and the men whose services have been in these and other lines of activity ar either en route to ports or plans for their embarkation are under way. The sick and convalescent wound ed will be sent home with the great est possible expedition. Certain di visions, exhausted by replacement drafts until only the skeletons re main, are also going home. With the coming winter the French need almost the entire ca pacity of their railroads to distri bute fuel, food and other supplies throughout the country. This will delay the transportation of Amer icans. PRESIDENT TO REACH FRANCE IN MIDDLE OF COMING DECEMBER Paris, Nov. 22. President Wil son is expected to arrive in Paris about December 12, according to information here today.

KAISER AND SON HATED AT HOKE London, Nov. 22. From a special investigation in western Germany, the correspondent of the Daily Mail at the Hague has ascertained here is considerable hostility against the former emperor and his eldest son. The correspondent says after Wil liam llohenzol'ern entered Hol land a thousand German soldiers arrived at the frontier and demand ed they be allowed to pursue and kill him. They were turned back by Dutch frontier guards. The correspondent 2oes not be lieve the former emperor could reach Berlin in safety no matter what guarantees might be given. The former crown prince is uni versally hated also. His life in Ger many, the correspondent declares, would not be worth an hour's pur chase. He is undi-r close guard in Holland for fear of attack. Much publicity is being given to Eitel Friedrich and August VTilhelm, re spectively, the second and fourth sons of the former emperor, and the correspondent's impress-on is tliat the royalistic hope is that through them dynastic sympathies can be maintained.
