Letter from Belgium.
Mrs. Maxwell, of town, has kindly
handed us the following letter for pub-
lication from her son, Ross, who is now
on the firing line;
Belgium, Sept. 9th, 1915.
My dear Mother:—
Since I wrote you last I have been
in the trenches for a while, but my
company is now in the divisional re-
serve for a rest and clean-up. which
we certainly needed. When we
came here first we were in brigade
reserve, and were living in a bush
and bad small tents (or rather merely
coverings) to sleep in. These were
lust large enough for three to sleep
in, While here we had our meals
supplied from the field kitchen,
which were very good. But the
first three days in the trenches were
fierce. It rained nearly all the time.
We were in mud and water up to
our boot tops all the time, The
places, where we slept while in the
trenches, are called dug -outs, and
are merely cavities in the side of
the trench. and are large enough for
four to sleep in, but are not high
enough to sit up in. While in the
trenches we had plenty of company,
such as rats and wasps, but we did
not mind them. We had to cook
our own meals, and the menu was •
bacon, bread and tea for breakfast,
steak and onions and potatoes for
dinner, and bread, jam and cheese
for supper. When we came out of
the trenches you would have hardly
recognized me, as I had no time to
wash or shave.
We had very few casualities this
time. Sergt Baker, who came ever
with us, had one • hand blown off
by the explosion of a bomb he was
working with. For the first few
nights I could hardly sleep for the
noise of the guns, but have now
got used to them. There is one
good thing about the large shells and
that is you can hear them coming
for some time before they reach
you and you might have a chance
to get into the dug -out and you
might not. While in the trenches I
received the papers you sent.
We only get fifteen francs or $3.00
twice a month and the balance goes
to our credit.
Your loving son
Ross.
Newspaper Men in Session.
A meeting of the Perth and Huron
newspaper men was held in Goderich
on Monday last when the question of
raising the subscription price of weekly
papers from $1. to $1.50 was discussed.
The papers in Bruce county are making
the increase, but definite action in
Perth and Huron has been deferred
until a later date. It is a well-known
fact that the $1 rate is too low con-
sidering the increased cost of publishing
a paper. Mr, A. G. Smith, of the
Advance and Mr. H. B. Elliott, of the
Times were in attendance from Wing -
ham.
