P: 0, London, July 10th Dear Aunt --Your 'letter came some days ago and I was very much pleased to hear from you. I have been afloat- since New Year's, and ant now fairly well ac: custo,ned to navy routine. At the pres- ent time it is greatly e matter of being ready, as we have had no fighting. The week we came from Gibraltar the battle cruisers had a "go" at the Germans, but we were not there. The next time it will be different, for we hope, before another month, to see something very real in that: line hope o c to see movement of some kind soon, as 1' ant well "fed up" with the monotony of our lives. They are waking up over here to the seriousness of the war, our confidence seems to be the main draw back so far. There are Still plenty of slackers, who are waiting to be forced before they will join. I look for conscription if the war lasts till Christmas. I have changed myviews regarding ie since coming over. If we are going to win we mist bend every energy to the work, throwing everything into the scale, and not quibbling over very little matters, as has been done herd toforc, A couple of weeks ago we had a very unusual trip to a foreign port with three special envoys. We were sent'after a hurried passage by a Royal Yacht, which relieved us of our passengers. • The scenic beauty of the meeting place great- ly appealed to inc The snow capped • mountains and rocky promontories, with the clear still water of the Bay, madea picture not soon to be forgotten.

Considering we have done so little fighting it seemed out of place,,however we shall all Prove worthy of our trust when the time co.ntes. I sometinhes wish I had stuck to the army. I might have been killed, for there is no telling what is in store; for any of us. We only die once and I aril. ready to go when the time comes. Tell uncle Fred I read his Testa- ment every night.

No bigger blunder can be made than to arrange an abortive peace with militarism. Krupp's gunworks eeauire to be smashed first Premier Hearst's health has been much improved by a vacation. Anybody who thinks a man in public office has a "dead cinch" is very wide of the mark as the high tension is sure to snake heavy drafts . on the mental if not the physical make- up. A -very practical course is being takt by 10,000 Western tanners in the way donating the proceeds of one acre c grain to the Patriotic Funds.
