Dear read pi's of TliP News-Rpcord: 1 sup pose you have missed me by this time but I hadn't time to sny goodbye."; When I got the , invi tHtion from Mr. Ford -to jin the peace party I just had four hours to chrtnge sock?, kiss Sarah Jane, and get to New York, before the Peace Ship, Adolph III, sailed. I got Jerry Franklin to take me in his Ford, it was only a 800 mile drive and we got there with 20 minutes to spared We left New York a week ago . to day, We exuect the "wurst" when we reach Germany. One difficulty is to agree on. an opinion to wire les5 President Wilson of iis mes? sage to congress. I told tord tl he'd leave things back in the 17. to - Wilson everything would be O. K. and we didn't have to bpttin with any opinion. He fcaid. .'You're . right, Mr, Rib- There are 46 newspaper men on board the ship including my self. The rest of them are all young fellers so they kind , of look to idc as "the ole man." Those fellows are showing me the time ot my life. They've got bushels of ten cent cigars so I just lossea my, old pipe over board.. Some class to us ducks. fr-peaking of ducks, that reminds ine that Jerry and I had "duck" bn our way to New York. We struck a restaurent at Henderson- ville, "ducked" in the front door and out the back door.

Last night I dreamed we land ed in Germany and the Kaiser gave us such a cold stare that the" ocean froze over and we all skated home. I am learning to read wireless messages and this morning I caught one that ran like this: , The Germans have taken Pil sner, and are now surrounding Delicatessan. where the wurst Js expected, the Belgian - Hares have had a falling out with Welsh Rarebits and the Swiss Cheese is shot full of holes. This will make the Irish Stew and the English mustard hot, and if, tbe Russian Cavias sees the French Pastry, it may start a-Swiss movement watch! The Spanish Onions are strong for a mixup, if the Home Preserves are called out and spread over the German Noodles, they may Ketchup with the ftavy Beans thereby causing an uprising of t h e Brussels Sprouts. Wouldn't that make the Custard cuss? I was talking confidentially last night v-ith Mr. Ford as to what his opinion was now about "get ting the boys out of the trenches Mcidntally Shbf ti :'' ',' if nunseii.

Melvin Ball, turned his artil lery down toward the ground, fir ing as he walked along, in. mak ing a step forward one of the bulls from his pistol entered his lefl thigh, ranging " downward and lodged in his knee. The young man is dangerously hurt and may be a cripple for life; Moral: If you can't be good, be careful. Didn't Know it Was Loaded. On Christmas morning Mr tinl Mrs. Woodward Stines had gone to spend the day with Mrs. Stin es' parents, Mr. and Mrs. Everett Fox, and all were happy and en joying, life. Mrs. Stines playful ly picked up an old pistol, which she believed to be unloaded, and holding it.in her left hand 'pulled the trigger , The result was. that the pistol fired, the ; ball tearing off the ovrefinger of M rs. Sti ns right hand and lodging in the leg of her husband who was standing near her. - ,' by Christmas" and he said, ' Eze kiel, old pal, the more I think this .matter, over, the more .1 think we're going to find oursel ves ''.in statu quo'' before its over with. Well that "in statu quo" got my goat but I never let on to Henry that 1 didn't know what it meant, I just said to him "ctecr up, Henry, even if you don't ac complish this great undertaking jusb think of the good you have done the world by placing a car on the market that anyone can atFord. . Why, even Lee Tweed has bought one." Dag my jib stays if the expression on his face didn't change from the re semblance of a Heinz pickle to a smile like Roy Ebbs wears most of the time. When I got by myself I look the dictionary and looked to nee what "in statu quo" meant, and found that it in e a n s "in a heliuvafix" I said to myself, "Henry, old boy I guess you're right."' 'We've heard on board the ship by wireless that T. R. is "afraid to speak" in Canada until peace. But will he ever be able to Keep still that long. ... The reason I sent such a long wireless is because Ford is pay ing for it and everybody knows he's got the "rin." Ishrrabibble.

JChristmas Day at the Convict Camp - We were busy all the fore-iioon giving out presents to the prison fers, first come was a treat . .furn ished by the States aV they always do On this day, following this treat : come a treat frailrxour thoughtful State Geoligist, Hon. Joseph Hyde Pratt, who always remembers us on this day, and these treats were highly appre ciated by all. And the next treat was a -ijmptuous dinner prepared by the Ladies of Marshall, piloted over to the. camp by our profes sional barber, ;Mr. Fed Tweed, several of the Lidies intended coming along with the t imer to arrange it on the table f r the men, but owing to the enc'.ement weather they did not come.. Hay iug a good deal of experience along that line it did not take long to arrange this nice dinner on the table. Then trie march hJ in and sang in concert "Jesus Keep me Near the Cross.'.'. Aft er the song service the .prisoners eceived this bountiful dinner and informed me that they were for;r.'paredness and chicken at any cosi, now i want to express onr appreciation to the Ladies of Marshall for preparing this ex cellent diiinnr. There are sever- aii reasons wu,y we appreciate thi-' dinner, one of the , reasons u e knpwiug the spirit in .which it wan giyeu . not because they were in sympathy with those men rt-Ttct-nunt oT tl rtwcr rm&rTliey have committed but-, were" inter-. sted i n them o n account o f ihe good work they are .doing through this county. And t h o last but not the least my em ployees appreciated this dinner o'a great extent, theenLire force jing unmarried men. This g-ve ihem a chance to test the Mar dial I Indies' cooking. I. think I can voice the entire camp in say ing we all iij-iyt-d and appreci ated this l onntiful dinner and I im sure if such dinner had been served on the " Peace S h i p Henry Ford would never have deserted it. On Sunday we start- id Off by giving the prisoners a a feast furnishd by the citizens of Marshall, consisting o f apples. granges', nice candies, all kinds ( meats, cigars, cigarettces, and -it noon we put on our annual -Christmas clmm'!- which w a s held over o i am-m ii of the citi- , zens dinner (vtf nil "itj'iuvl a nice and quit-t ami plu-nni- Christinas and we w.m. io e-xpress tjur an prociiitious t the citizens of Mar shall for I heir bountiful treat. 11.
