Dear Folks: 1 received "three letters from you last night, dated Jan. 21st and Feb. 6th. Today I am having a great time trying to answer letters. 1 have forgotten when 1 wrote you last, 50 do not know ‘what I have told. ~|Say, it T answered all the questions you ask, I would have to have a pass for a week and do nothing but write t6 you. T know I cannot get that week off, so you will have to, be held off with what I can remember.’ Now I would like to- do that but I think I told you before that I had been made stable sergeant of the ma- chine gun company and have charge of thirty mules and six hopses. It is my duty to sée that they are fed and taken care of. with one mule in, two four-wheel wag- ons and one two-mule wagon. FEive of the horses are saddle horses; the other one goes on the ration cart which takes up the grub every night. I have 24 two-wheel carts We are allowed seven more mules, but the supply company is short. of mules and we can get along without them on a pinch. saddle sometimes. Once in a while he takes 1 am allowed a mule. I have a dandy one it into his head and goes any place Be Well, I go with him—if 1 ‘When the company are in the n | trenches 1 have to stay back at the |- base and see to my pets. Not near as 1 had mine, 1 have to go with the wagons rather warm along the road at that. I wish you could have seen me trying to put ‘on my gas mask one night. I bet it had movies you ever saw skin- ned ‘a mile. It went on any way. 1 also have the masks for the mules now. I do not know how they g0 on and Tl be hanged if I can find anyone that does. I guess with the Yankee ideas I can find out somehow. This camp where we-are now is a nice quiet place. Nothing doing. I have a small house with two other lads and @ home made stove. Last night when we started the fire we had to put on the zas masks or move out. The old thing smokes the wrong Way. While 1 think of it, 1 have more clothes than 1 need, and they are warm ones. The government furnishs es enough and the winter is gone, or will be before you get more here. 1 thank you for the gioves und stockings. The gloves came in handy, for I lost mine (the day before. You speak of hardships. 1 bet we have not had es hard times as some of the poor people in_the states. We may get them vet, We had a big. turkey dinner Monday night. It was planned for Washing- ton’s birthday, but as usual the Adams Express company was let in getting the goods here. I think I haye written you about the boys going in the trenches and coming out without the loss of a man—not even one hurt! Hurrah! They also got great honor for what they did. I wish I dared to tell you the story. The cave I had for a home for two weeks is about forty feet under ground and will hold four or five thousand men. 1 think this will be enough gor this time. 1 am feeling fine and happy as T always am. With love, WINTON. STANDARD SYSTEM OF SIGNS AND SIGNALS For Prevention of Accidents Grade Crossings: at At a joint cos cerence with a com- mittee of the National Associatio of Railroad "Comi sioners, it was decid- d to procure, as far as possible, uni- form legislation in the several states, establishing a standard system of signs and signals for the prevention of accidents at gradé crossings, and a draft of proposed legislation was sent to all state commissions. At the last general assembly the Public Utilities Commission of this state, presented such™ proposed legis- lation resulting in the passage of Chapter 373 of the Public Acts, which rears as follows: Chapter 2373—An act concerning the Protection of Grade Crossings. Sectien 1—Every town, city or borough ‘shall, within six months aft- er the passage of this act, place and maintain warning signs on every highway approaching a crossing at grade of such highway and the tracks of any railroad within the respective limits of such town, city or borough. Such signs shall be furnished by the railroad company crossing such high- way. Section ach signs shall consist of a metal disc twenty-four inches in @ the fleld thereof enameled white, with an enameled black horder fine one inch wide, with an enameled black perpendicular and horizontal cross iine two and one-half inches wide; the reverse side of such disc col- ored b In each of the black en- quarterings shall appear in black en- amel the letter “R,” five inches high, thre and three-quarters inches wide, the lines thereof being one inch stroke. Such signs shall be placed in eonspicuous locations beside the high- way dt a distance of not less than three hundred feet nor more than five hundred feet from the nearest rail of such crossing. Section 3—The public utilities com- miseior. shall -investigate. conditions surrounding all railroad crossings with public highways at grade, and k- termine at which of such crossings public’ safety reasonably requires. that self-propelled vehicles on the high- ways shall come to a stop. Said com- mission may require the railroad com- pany at each of such crossings, so Ah! What relief! Your clogged nos- trils open right up, the air passdges of your h are clear and you can bréathe freely. No mi snufffing, mucous disc no_struggling night, your cold or catarrh is gone. Don't stay stuffed-up! Get a mn-l bottle of Eiy's Cream Balm from yot druggist nc;vtvi A? a “fm of zMs fragrant, antiseptic n your nos- trlls, let it penetrate through every air passage of the head; soothe and heal |° the swollen, inflamed mucous mem: brane, giving you.instant relief. Ely’s Cream Balm is just what every cold and sufferer has been seeking. It’s just splendid. Without right, Temove, throw down,| damage-or deface any. such sign or who svall, without right, extinguish or damage any light _illuminating any spch sign shall be fined not exceeding ten _dollars, or imprisoned not more than thirty’ days, or both. Approved May 16, 1817. In compliance with Section 3 of the above act, the commission made an Investigation of conditions existing at all such crossings- with a_ view to adopting such signals and signs as would more adequately safeguard the public. Os a result of such investi- gation, certain types of signals.and signs have been adopted and official- ly_aporoved of by the commission. \With a view to conducting an ed- the public using highways ' in the state which are at grade with tracks of steam railroads, arrangements have been made by the commission Hartford Railroad company to exhibit at the automobile show to be held in the state the sjgnals and signs official- co-operating ith this commission in and is to distribute from Hartford and at the autom in different cities in 122 state, their significanc rent report of the Public to be issued by the Automobile de- partment about June 1st.
