Warning
A very slick swindling scheme
has come tc the attention of the
Food Administrator Stratton D
Brooks. One man. goes around
through a community spreading
the rumor that the government
intends to confiscate a portion of
the canned goods in each house-
hold. A day or two later a con-
federate of this party appears
and offers to buy this product at
a very low price.
The community is warned
against these particular swind
lers. The gevernment has no
intention whatever of either co*-
fiscating or purchasing any of
the goods canned by the house-
wives, but on the other hand
urges everyone to increase, up to
the limit of their ability to con-
-ume, the canning of all perish
able products.

Letter From Jesse Banks
Dear Father:
• I will now write you a few
lines. 1 am now in the navy
yards at Philadelphia. We ar-
rived last night. It sure is a
fine place and w$ were certainly
trpa ed nice. -The chiefs here
are no more than a seaman. We
have been treated nicer here
than we expected. Really, it
is lots better than Great Lakes.
We came through Pittsburg,
Washington, D. C., Baltimore,
and also Indiana, West Virginia,
Deleware, Ohio, Maryland and
Pennsylvania.
I understand we are going to
be in the Seamen Guard. I don’t
think we will stay here long.
They are leaving here every day.
The U. S. S. Oklahoma is in
the docks here.
Have you heard from Seeb? I
am going to write him soon. I
think I will like it here fine, but
I expect I will leave soon. Can’t
tell when or where I may go
with some convoy ship carrying
soldiers over. *
I must close. Will write you.
again soon. I don’t know what
my address will be, but send my
letters to the following address.

U. S. S. Navy Yards,
Philadelphia, Pa., Sea Guard Co.
Letter From Jesse Kizer
Kind Friends:
I will t( 11 you a few of my ex-
periences in camp at Garden City.
This is a fine camp, but it is not
finished yet. The barracks are
steam heated, and we have hot
and cold shower baths.
Y\e were sujp^sed to leave
here for France last week, but
our commanding officer got or-
ders tangled up and we did not
g.jt to go. We may be here until
spring now. Uur squadron had
toigo on guard Sunday. It sure
was some job, for it was so cold.
1 had to guard the governmen'
lumber yard. Sure was some
lonesome place to guard. We
guadei two h^urs and were off
duty four hours, for twenty-four
hours.
There sure are lots of aero-
planes here. I am going to try
for a flying commission just as
soon as I can get my application
through. They tell us that when
we get across to France that ev-
eryone who wants to be an avi-
ator will have the chance.
I went to New York City a few
days ago and met my friend,
John Leuch. He is on the bat-
tle cruiser San Diego. I sure
was glad to meet him. We took
New York City in. Sure had
some time.
On Sunday morning John and
I went out to the San Diego and
he showed me all over the ship.
It certainly is some classy boat.
John is a first-class fireman. I
sure would like to be on the San
Diego with him. While I W8S
rightseeing in the city, I saw the
German ship, “Fatherland.”
They are going to make a troop
ship out of her.
The people of New York have
given all the soldiers in the avia-
tion field an invitation to eat
Thanksgiving dinner with them.
The people in New York are very
kind to we soldier boys.
Well, I will have to close for
this time, as I am called on duty.
I aak all my friends to write me.
Yours as a true soldier,
Jesse E. Kizer,
Garden City, Long Island, N. Y.
106 Aero Squadron,
Aviation Supply, Depot No. 2,
Barracks 25.
