TUKEY TELLS OF
LIFE IN FRANCE
s
Letter Received by Frank
Latenser Declares Stay in
Allied Countries is Not '
Half Bad.
Allan Tafcey, oungcst son of A. P.
Tukey, who was trained at Fort Snell
ing. and then volunteered to go im
mediately to France, lias written t'
Frank Latenser, re lling him about life
"over there." The letter is dated Oc
tober 24 and is as follows:
"Dear Frank I left Xcw York Sep
tember 7 after just a fair time in that
village. I was very glad to be off.
After a journey of a month. I landed
in a little French town not far from
the line, where 35 or 40 of us arc at
tending the Third Army Infantry
school of the British expeditionary
forces with some British officers and
N". C O.'s. It is most interesting, as
we are all in messes with the British
officers, and they are fine to us. As
they are all down from the line wc
pick tip a lot in talking to them.
"The cause is good and I enjoy it.
Wc get little, of everything and
keep on the move. It lasts a little
over a week more and after that wc
don't know where we go. We hope
for a week or so in the trenches, but
don't know yet.
"We arc billeted on the town peo
ple and each has a liritish soldier for
a servant. I drew a pretty fair billet,
hut up to date haven't had much lime
to improve my .French.
"Our day's program is this: At 8
breakfast: work from 8:45 till l.vhrn
we lunch: work from 2 til! about 3:30;
tea at 4:30; lecture at 6 and dinner at
7:30. Wednesday and Saturday aft
ernoons are free and we play game,
Wccr. Rugby, cross-country, basket
ball, hockey, c'c. Also a boxing
tournament with 00 or more entries,
bouts about two evenings a week.
Once a week or so a concert by some
regimental troop down from the line.
Country Beautiful.
"The country is beautiful around
here and there are a lot of woods in
which we do schemes of one kind or
a.iother. Winter is starting, and I
will say it is chilly; also more than
enough rain.
"Some days we hear the. guns very
plainly and sometimes at night can
sec the flaslies. Three or four air
planes go over every day. I hafdly
look up at them now. A Hoche plane
was over a town near here Sunday,
but didn't drop anything, and as he
was well out of range there was no
harm done to him. .
"I have made some mighty good
friends among the British. They are
a good lot and a very likeable bunch
it! general. Please write when you
can. It is darned nice to receive a
line or two in this blooming rainy
country. Yours,
"TUKE."

CHILDREN NEED FOOD-HOT ALCOHOL
How careless it is to accept alcoholic medicine for
children when everybody knows that their whole health
and growth depends upon correct nourishment. If
your children are pale, listless, underweight or puny, they
absolutely need the special, concentrated food that only
