Frits, is certainly shaking at the knees this morning, and, I think, is about ready to throw up the sponge. About two weeks ago Sergeants C. F. Monson from Los Angeles, H. C. Messinger from Cincinatti, William Brooking from Pineville. Ky and Wil- liam Devine of New York and myself leave, or returned from our seven-da- y rather twelve days, as we were riding on the train for five days. I sent you several views, but am afraid they did not reach you, as a great many card are taken out of the mails. We went to Aix les Bains, a famous health resort, noted for its natural sulphur baths, and' once rival to Monte Carlo as a gambilng center. It is situated up in the French Alps on the Switzerland and Italian borders, near beautiful Lake Bourget, 11 miles long and about 2 miles wide. While there 1 saw the most beautiful scenes I have ever witnessed, and say boy, . all five of us had the time of our ' r young lives. The little city itself has . a population of about 15,000 and there are more than a hundred hotels here. During the summer thousands of wealthy tourists from all over the world go there, and I am frank in saying that I met the finest s6t of people ever there from all over. For seven days we were among the best of them and It seemed as if they could not treat us kind enough. In the 'morning we played tennis on the finest tennis courts I ever saw. In the afternoon we would take a trip in the Alps, while in the evening we were pyoq aqt Aq pourepm tainly hard for us soldier lads to take. In fact it, seemed like a seven-da- y dream. "A met some splendid people from Paris and they are very anxious for me to go there. Prospect, however, for the desired trip are not very good at the present time. A good many of tiie boys over here fail to take advantage of seeing things which some people pay thousands ot dollars to see. "I am really in love with quaint and historic old 'France. Nevertheless, I know another country I like much better. I hope Keith gets a chance to visit Paris, now that h6 is near there, but I am afraid he ''will not be able to make it, as that city Is closed to soldiers for visiting purposes. I have been some busy here lately as acting Regimental Supply Sergeant, Billeting Sergeant and Town Major Sergeant. - Any one of' them is a man size job, so you can imagine that I have been going some. .Beat wishes, tojrour, ff. 7jd jour folks and dont forget to write.
