The letter which contains much vivid description of the district in which Mr. Humason works, is dated August 1 Mr. Humason's greatest difficulty is not keeping cheer- ful by any means but is in speaking French, which he necessarily accom- panies with “much sign The life of a munition driver Paradise of case and freedom labor but the drivers keep in good spirits and ever looks on the bright side of affairs > follows Thir have been ve: mn.g on this sector many days.now duc as I have previously reported in part to the weather. - The sun has been out for some time now, however, although there have been slight showers every day. There have been a largely in- creased number of both French and Boche captive balloons in evidence which probably means increased ac- tivity on one side or the other. It is hard at times when the front is dull to realize that practically the whole of this great world is now at war. We can see from the camp here for miles in every direction and a more peaceful sscene could never _ be imagined. It is a perfect picture on the surface, of a contented rural dis- Yrict. Barring the new Frenchies at- tached to our section; the Americans have the village to themsclves so there are no soldiers to mar the picture. The fields are full of wheat, hay and grain, which in many places has now been cut and arranged in picturesque little piles. Even yesterday the spell was not broken for a long time. Ex- cept for a stray touring car with an officer or two, we passed nothing on a road usually active. We stopped in the middle of a clump of woods as usual, waiting for it to grow dark and outside of a number of tree toads peeping and a dag barking in the dis- tance there was nary a sound. After the sun set we cranked and proceeded on our waj bridge shortly over the Aisne, so long contested over. Soon we reached a stretch of road which makes the night drive imperative as it lies across the mouth of a valley and connects two hills in French possession and which shields the Toad at other points from observation. Here, there was an oc- casional star shell which went up at some point and cast a lisht on the shadows way bevond but it resembled distant fireworks more than anything else. We eventually reached our des- tination and find as usual new ev dences of the effectiveness of a larze shell. This was my third trip to this particular spot and cach-time L note new holies'in the cement wall and the house which is now badly riddled. There was a short delay while our gradie showed his ordrs and got the men necessary to unload us and we then went on ta the station which had been moved on account of the hombardnient to which the Chateau has been subjected. The unloadir tation is just at the foot of a hill which was once ev dently covered with thick woods but which is now absolutely bare with the exception of a few guant, limbless tree trunks on top, standing out against the - sky like sentinels of a Jong lost land. ill there had been no sound outside of éur motors, not even a rifle shot and yet just beyond the crest of #he hill is located a part of No Man's Land—only two kilomete distance approximately from our house to the railway station.

Members of the church have already several plans under way for keeping in touch with the young men of the parish who are in the service of Uncle Sam. At special offering to be held on Sunda October and funds will be raised for the purpose of sending copies of thee New Testament and Psalms, as |a remembrance from the church, to | its young men. Ther arc at present over 50 South church members en- | rolled in the various branches of the army and navy. It is also purposed to place in the vestibule of the church an honor roll of the enlisted men. In accordance with this plan, it is hoped that any | who have or know of hoys in service | will hand th names, with grade and' | branch of service to Dr. Hill or Mr. Thompson.
