built for marines. We have good
quarters and the hoys arc* in the best
oi spirits. Me left (Jmmtico four
I clays ago; we were up at a. m. and
j were escorted to tin* train by the
: hand There were a number of moth
I ers and sweethearts there to say
good by e to t heir hoys.
I "Me stopped at Washington. 1* C.
about three hours Cot off the train
and were given an early morning treat
by the* Bed Cross 1 saw the eapitol
building and many of tin* public
buildings from a distance. I would
have liked to have had a chat with
Woodrow, hut no doubt he was having!
breakfast and would not hav* cared
to be interrupted.
"The people along the* road mini
Washington to the port we departed
from were all much more patriotic
than in any of the states that we trav
eled through since leaving Mare
Island. 1 never at any time saw so1
many flags. The* B«*d. W hite and Blue.
I service flags. Bed Cross flags and Lib-'
erfy loan flags every house had more
or less flags to show their patriotism.
"I met some people at a certain port,
down near the wharf, who. after talk
ing to my pal and I for a couple of
hours, went home and brought us
some good eats, which consisted of
two bundles, jin.' for each. Mute con
'.titled twelve* package's of cigarettes,
throe boxes of matches, two nice
i boxes of c andy, six oranges, ix ha
| names, four chicken sandwiches and
I half a home-made rake*. My i al also
I had about tie same Of cm se we
j only had a small portion of it, as we
| divided up with some* of the boys who
were not so lucky. I have to go to
quarters now; will write me re to
morrow.
“June 2.—Why didn't I wrl* the
next morning? Well, It was a
rough, and I was also on watch on
the bridge deck four-hour watches
every twenty four hours. 1 have not
been a hit sick since leaving 1 am
really enjoying myself Of course
this boat don't rock like the Victoria
and some of the rest, but it has been
real amusing to sc*- how sick some
of the l evs get Many of them are
from the Central states, and never
saw a steamboat before.
"Yesterday was my first experience
seeing a heavy gun fired, and it was
really exciting. The tr.’gef was a
. dummy submarine which was being
towed about five hundred yards
astern another boat which wa> about
a mile off our port side \\Y could
not see the target with the naked e\e.
as if was only the dummy periscope
in sight The gun crews scored s,*\
eral hits.
“Well, we shot for records at
Quanthm, hut I lost out as expert b\
six points, but mad* sharpshooter by
a good lead: that means $2 more a
month not much, but I can buy cig
arettes. 1 fell dow n in rapid tin .

takes us through 'most any time now.
June i. Well, we have been in
the war zone about twenty four hours
and had expected to see a little ex
eitement. hut everything is sailing
along tine. We now have our convoy
with us, and it is a great sight to
most of us. We have our drills regu

be struck by a torpedo we have plenty

no chance of getting over to see the

and will perhaps he traveling about
lour or five days. Our sleeping rpuir
tors are not quite so up-to-date as
those we had at Mare Island, hut we
can not expect that over here. Some*
of the* hoys had rather a hard time
getting used to Hie hard wood mat
tresses, hut it did not bother me in
the least, as the hardships we have
here equal nothing we have had in
the North. We are getting three
square meals and no hard work vet
I do not believe we will see the'

that we are to get some more train

‘‘France resembles Kngland in many
