FOEE WAN LECTURE Ill .i Letter From Frame Dear Sister: It has been some time since I had time to write as we have been moving most of the time. Some times we are off so we cant send or receive mail, and 1 hope you won't worry for we are getting along fine. We are camped at present in a small village, resting for a few days. We have surely seen lots of country and am well impressed with what I have seen of France, .v'e are living in a beautiful spot with a stream near by and some pretty meadows and some small villages near The buildings look to he several hundred years old. Some are old castles and estates. The houses in the villages are very close together and surround ed by rock walls. The houses and barns are only a few feet apart and are very much like (he pictures 1 have seen in the movies. This country is warmer than England and is a great fruit district. We passed many hundreds of acres of grapes on our way. There is wild blackberries growing along the fences and the boys spend all their spare time picking them. The people here dont seem to care for them but they sure taste good to us. The French people are surely courteous and accommodating. They will do anything they can tor us. We find it very difficult to make them understand and wish we could speak their language. We carry a sheeet of paper with a few French w'ords. I went off to a farm house this morning and succeeded in buying a quart of milk and a few eggs. And we sure did have a feed. I enjoyed the bread and milk and eggs nearly as well as those grand old chicken dinners at your house. I am not saying I didnt enjoy them, but this was a change and you remember how I liked bread and milk at home. We had a wonderful ride across England. The country district is surely beautiful, being very much like father, Wilford and Adolph described it. I saw so many things of Interest that I cant begin to describe them or remember them all. The green meadows, rock walls, fields and stheams make a beautiful picture. On Sunday the people are all out in the meadows and parks, boat riding and playing games. The ride over here had most of the boys feeding the fish. Going out of port we enjoyed the beautiful scenery and felt fine, but as we got out a&d the boat begin to plunge we had a dizzy feeling about the head. I found a place to lay down and went to sleep and when I awoke next morning we were in France safe and sound. Most of the men had a bad night and I considered myself very lucky. If you talk to Ray I guess he can tell you more about our travels than I can. We are probably going over the same route, although I think the camps and resting places are arranged better. The trains in England and here are small and crude compared with ours at home. You notice the difference when one of Uncles trains pulls up by the side of these. This country life sure pleases me. Lots of good water to wash and bathe in, and lots of good shade to rest in. A flock of geese are swimming by the bridge nearby. The children and women pass, with a few cows and goats from the pasture. We are right back among the cows and chickens to be shore. The women are very industrious. How is mother by this time? Does she worry about me since I arrived here? I will write as often as possible, but you might not hear very often. Tell her not to worry, because she doesnt hear. I am feeling fine, as usual. We get lots of advice from our doctors and officers about the way to take care of ourselves, but this is not new to us we have been taught these same things all our lives, for which I am very thankful. It just reminds us of the things our religion teaches and what you folks expect of us. Home was always good enough for me, but one has to travel and see other conditions to fully appreciate It. This country is beautirul to see and travel through, but opportunities are scarce here compared with America. I imagine you are very busy about this time canning fruit and getting the girls ready for school. Does Ruth begin her school days this year? We havent had any mail since we left N. Y but hope you are getting along well and that we will soon get in touch with the mail. I expect a car load at Col-linsto- n on Sunday, under the direction of Elder David P. Burt of the High Council. An interesting program will be rendered and the Tabernacle choir will be in attendence. The people of this city are invited and respectfully urged to be in attendence at the services and help to make them more interesting. Guard unit in this county, disposed of Hon. John Watson of Ogden, was in about forty men last evening. Captain Brigham City yesterday attending a A. A.

The report of the officials higher up is looked for in a few days.
