SERGT. COURTNEY MEETS
CORDOVANS IN FRANCE
Sergeant J.'J. Courtney of Company
53, transportation corps, American ex
peditionary force, wrote Harry Thist
ed from St. Pierre, France, under date
of January 11, in which he says:
“I was down in Tours yesterday and
on the main street l ran right into
your brother Teddy, and was never so
surprised in my life. He was on his
way to Germany, with a number of
others, where they expect to do some
railroad work. We had a good time
together for a couple of hours; had
dinner in the Y. M. C. A. and tried
several kinds of French wine. Teddy
is looking fine and he said I looked
fine, too. Gee, but it is groat to meet
some one from home. Angus Holli
day is O. K., so is Warren Taylor.
Had letters from both of them. The
weather is rotten, with rain all the
time. Give my. regards to Charles
Ross and Al. Martin, and say ‘‘hello1’
for me to all my Cordova friends, f
expect to leave soon for "the States.”
Since the above was written our
former townsman has returned to
New York.

The Nenana News says that if as
much money was spent on the Broad
Pass route to the Interior as has been f
spent on the Richardson road it would
be the shortest and most available
route to the luterior. And Mark
Twain once remarked that if Goose
Run was long enough, and wide
enough and deep enough it would be
the most navigable river in Tennes*
see. But it wasn’t. We have no fault
to find with those adherents to the
Broad Pass route who desire to fritter
their short lives away peregrinating
to the Interior over its broad expense;
but why not come down to cases and
admit that the mail can reach Fair- |
banks and Interior points by the Rich
ardson road from four days to four
weeks ahead of the Broad Pass route. *
