Howell and Southerland and Devlin foray forth on a hunting oxps&
dition this date. The destination is Juneau. Big game is the quarry,
and a successful trip is expected.
Southerland is the bearer of several verbal messages to certain fair
ones on both sides of the Channel, it appears that Howell is too good
looking to be trusted with any of then*
Hqrs, Co. has ''gone over the top" with a Library ^ssooiation. We
know it will be a successful one,
BOBBOWING is a disease which thro the centuries has been the bane
of efficient military organisation* The first instance we recollect
occured in Adam's Own Home Guards, when Pvt. Able borrowed Corp Cains
Insignia of rank when the Corp. Wasn't looking. The last case, which
occured just recently in this outfit has a strong resemblance to the one
mentioned above but we hope to see it terminated eithout crime, we hope
it will produce the desired results.
Be in?;; the party of the first part* I sure made some speed towards
returning the borrowed article (Ink Bradicator) I was glad that I was
not a member of Corporal Cains squad and beg the aocuser to apply the
returned article as a means tp effect the eradication of my sin« Ike.

MEDICAL DEPARTMENTS NET'S LETTER
WE DON*t understand why you havn't answered our last letter but we
presume that you have the good old alibi "to busy"* Well* be that as
it may, we will slip you a few more lines this week, It takes brains to wr
wriye a letter in this place, the only thing that happens is snow, and
if we were to go on and rave about the beautiful snow, we would sure
get a trip to the Letterman General Hospe for observation, with Shorty
Lepple and Houdy as Honor Guards, and while we have boon in Alaska
long enough to be nutty, no one has dischvedd that we actually are.
At last we are going to get electric light, at least we are getting the
fixtues and believe us we are sure glad, Electricity was discovered by
Benjamin Franklin, flying a kite in Boston in the Transvaal. South Africa
on October 9th, 1492, three days before Christohper Columbus discovered
the west Indues, and believe me that sure is a long time to wait for
electricity to reach us, in this for north* While we think of it wo want
to express (wells Fargo) our thanks to every one who has helped us in
the matter of coming on sick call to get their dope, it is appreciated*
