LIFE IN TEXAS As It Impresses Floyd Willet—S8ix Willimantic Boys at Camp McAr- thur. Floyd Willet writes the following letter from Camp McArthur, Waco, Texas: Sunday, Jan. 20, 1918. Dear Friend Bill: Received your let- ter, written on January 11, January 17. 1 have received 14 letters this week (owing to a tie-up in the mail), 50 you can see that I am a busy man today. Nothing much to write about but the weather. We get blizzards and thunder stornis all in 48 hours. Jan- uary 10 was a fine summer day, but in the afternoon we had a sand storm ind the next morning: we woke up in 1 blizzard, 2 1-2 inches of snow on the level ang three or four feet deep in drifts, with the wind blowing a 40-" mile gale and the thermometer down to 4 above zero. Nice weather to live in tents. The next morning we had a rip-roarer thunder ‘shower that took the snow away, but, good night! The k3 mud_is fierce; every time you step, you pick up a square foot of Texas. According to the papars the coal situation must be bad in the north and east, and if it keeps this weather, it will get bad in the south. There are six boys from homsa. in the camp, Albert Beck, Joo Girard, Pratt, Valine, John Regan and myself, We are going to have a convention at Regan’s tent *this afternoon. Now don’t wait a month before you write again. As ever, Your true friend, FLOYD WILLET, 23d Squadron, Aviation’Section, Waco, Texas. OBITUARY Charles J. Hinchey. The death of Charles J.
