A World War I era letter collection describes life near a French town in August 1918. It recounts a chateau smoker, music and dancing, and a damaged frontline aviator as shells fly. The writer notes Red Cross visits, limited mail, and wearying conditions while detailing wine rich towns and local scenes.
A soldier's letter from a French village details daily life under bombardment. He describes shelling, dugouts, missing landings, and the taste of French meals while noting friends, local families, and language learning. He also comments on political figures and a plea to support reform in Oklahoma.
The piece decries J B A Robertson as a persistent office seeker whose fame rests on name recall rather than deeds. It mocks his failed drives and calls for voters to resist machine influence and any law aimed at regulating conduct or morality, arguing against prohibition and related efforts.
