A letter received from Walter Ben- jabin of TLisbon, is of inferest to lo- cal friends, as he was a haseball star when at home and evidently is abroad. May 24, 1918, Dear Farn:—We have heen having |some fine weather for! the last fe {dave. Tt has been creat weather for 2, and the opportunity was not ricoked as you have nrobably seen by the papers. T think that airplanes 1 decide this war. as there are thousands of them here and more coming. T am working on them my- self and as fast as we can equip them thev leave for the front. The Hung are flving very near to our camp, in fact. thev passed over it the other night while thev raided Paris and it's outskirts. T think we are getting the best of it, though, as the Germans have lost quite a few of their nlanes. I have seen some of them that have been brouzht down. I hear that there is quite a hunch from Jewett Cit\ over here. Jarvis is the only one whom T have met. T hear Carl has been transferred to the M. M. Repair Co. T wouldn’t be sur- prised if he came to my neighborhood as we are putting up a big machine shop here. Ts there anv ball team in Jewett v this vear? I don’t suppose there s anyone left to play as most of last year's players are over here. T am playing in a league which is the big league of France. We have suits and a swell diamond. Our pictures are zoing to be in a New York paper. The winning teams are {o receive medals. etc. I won our last game, as I did the game before in the tenth. I will send you a clipping of it. We cannot get ball shoes here, and I slipped in last Sunday’'s game while running for 2 limer, it going for a double. The week before we played the Na- val Aviation and T got a double, tri- ple, single and three passes, scored four runs and knocked in the two win- ning runs in the tenth. I guess that is going some! There are quite a faw small towns around here and ev- ery night we are allowed out until 10 o'clock. There are trucks which take us back and forth. I went swimming night before last.in the Seine river. It was swell. We have pretty good times where we go to town. 1 know a nice family and they ask me down quite often. They hayve a nice home and run a store in Paris. One of the girlg is a stenographer for a minister in Paris. The only trou- ble is they cannot English, and of course that spoils the whole affair, although I can understand them a little. ~ Jarvis is an’ interpreter. ' He does the talking as he speaks French pretty ‘good. - There isa’ good job-awaiting any- 1 1 If you want to: keep _yo-m;_ hair h\J | ! i one who can speak and write French as everything is French here. even the airplanes which we are using at present! American planes are very scarce here aithough there are quite a few U. S. pilots here. I wish you vould send me some pictures. Iwould like to zet one of Carl very much. You see we cannot send any home or 1 would send yYou some. We wear overseas caps here which lare very different from anything worn in Unitad States. They have big points sticking up on the front and back with no visors. They seem funny at first, but when vou get used to them you don't mind them. I' had a card from Mrs. Hyde ves- terday 2nd had several letters from Rab Olsen. I suppose vou swap the letterg around quite a bit anyway, so_the whole town reads them. Well, would like to be home Me- morial Day, but 1 gzuess I will cele- brate it in France this year. There {is going to be an athletic carnival here, but I don't know whetner T will enter it or not.
