9. Received yesterday one from Earnest and one from Carrie of Oct. 24th and 26th. You still say you have not heard from me since Aug. 16th.

I have writevery chance I had to mail letand believe I turned in 15. or 20 since that date, but of course can say what became of them. I hope they will eventually get there. I will have to stop at present as are called for drill; will try to finish tonight and turn it in to be censored. It is now 4 o'clock and getdark.

We have been on the move since November 18th, making but few stops. We crossed Luxemburg, going through the city of Arlon present we are in small town about 35 miles in Germany. Have been here since evening of the 7th. am sitting in a house with a num-. of others German civilians.

The people do not resent our occupation of territory. I believe most of them are glad the war ended as it did. There are quite a number of German soldiers here at home and seem happy to stop fighting. I read a paper of Nov. 8 from the U.

today and it was all news to me. I saw Davis about a month ago and told him to tell all hello for me. Tell Lela there is nothing doing in souvenirs just now for we try to discard everything except absolute necessities. We have about 65 lbs. to carry, sometimes as far as 19 miles day.

Some of the boys are betting will be at a' base port in 30 days. Hope they win the bet. Have just finished supper and I am enjoying a smoke in a Missouri Meerschaum. It has been raining the past few days. At times have very heavy fogs but far only light freezes and frosts.

They have their coldest weather Jan. and goes about 25 below zero. We are very much bothered with cooties at present, but are looking for complete change of clothing at next stop. The sweet potatoes must have done extra well. You can save a few for me.

They would certainly be ing for us now. Haven't seen anything of that sort for almost a year. If any the boys beat me back don't judge them too quick if you see them with a loaf of bread and a gallon of syrup sitting on the curb somewhere, for our style has changed somewhat. Well I have written all the news. Loveto all, hoping to sec you before long.

Would you rather buy goods from a store that waited for you to come in and ask the price or from one that tried to keep you posted on the price' without having to ask?
