FROM LEONARD SATHER. “Rogeville, France, January 22, 1919. Dear Friend John: Well, it seems like a long time be- tween drinks, as I have not written you for a long time. Don't know that I have written you since I got over here, but that can’t be helped. I wasn’t here long before we went up front, and believe me, 1 didn’t have much time to even think of} writing them. Am still in France, and dt that 1 am glad to be here; the ‘Germans were sure enougi looking for our coat~ buttons, etc. to take back as souvenirs, and I'm glad that I am still here, and they didn’t get them. We got theirs, though. We wound up at the finish up near Thiancourt. We were in the Metz sector since coming up and have been up at Pont au" Monsson, St. Mihiel and‘ sév¥éral’ other places, where there was’? some Teal Sqgapping. “We just moved" back bere; “a week ago, from Thiancourt_and’ I ‘sure hope that we move very often back towards a port. Have no idea of just when we will bt back, but thing it will be sometime during the spring. Of course, we are all mighty anxious to be getting back, hut it will take some time, at least, to $0 many, men pack there. Every- ‘fine with me.’ We are eating good, and have plenty of good warm clothes;“so everything is\ jake. One thing in particular, has attract. ed my attention as well.as a thousand others. 4 noticed by one of our A. Kj} ¥. papers that the Elks had donated} one purse of something Like $60,000 which in istself is no new stunt for them to. pull off, but what tickled all of we fellows was to see who they donated it to. Jack, we were glad, and we were proud to see that they had used such good judgment, and had given it to the Salvation Ammy If there is any organization that going to get support from the men who were over here, it is just tne Salvation Army, and the Red Cross. Vl be that you will never see an A. i. F. man go by a drum on a corner without dropping in’ two bits if he has the money. The boys and the lodge at home may have heard this same thing Jong before this, so it may be old stuff for them, but you can tell taem from me, and a million others, that we are glad, and we are proud of them, and boy, we are with them to a man, hese two organizations; the Red and the Salvation Army have both done most wonderful things ‘ver here. All of th up, from back behind the lines vay, right ‘up to tie front lines, these organiaztious were with us. Out in the rain and| shine, day and night, in some hole in the ground, or demolished building, they made hot doughnuts and cocoa, all we wanted, and always full of cheer. That is avhat helped out— (Man! it was-real war, but the “G. D.” cans or big high explosive siells did not make them close up shop. And here is the funny part of it—instead of some old man, they had girls up there making these doughnuts, and doughnuts to know that a girl can make them better than a tan can; and who in sell would be afraid or even disgusted or blue, when there were real American girls up there, do- ing all of this for the fellows?

You may have heard alot of this praise for them, and how a lot the boys felt about it, but I nave had it in mind for quite a while, to write some of the boys, and you happened to be the one elected. Not a very newsy, interesting letter, but-enough to let you know that I am right-side up, and O. K. Hope to be back home some time during ‘the spring. Remember me to all of the boys, and 1, €or one, con- gratulate them for what they ‘Aave done, and they will hear lots more of praise from the boys who were front..
