In a message to the thirty-eighth annual c onvention of the Advertising Federation of America, the President said: "It is obvious that there are many changes going on in your" field, for the duration of the war there will be a diminution in product advertising, but this does not mean the end of advertising. ' , ._. . ' There are man/ messages which should be given the public throueh the use of advertising space. THE DESIRE FOR LIBERTY AND FREEDOM CAN BE STRENGTHENED BY REITERATION OF THEIR BENEFITS.

PRIVATE MARSHALL BACQN one end equipped with blackout curtains and bunks are made of boards about the width of a single bed elevated on sawed-off saw horses and mattresses made of straw. T Marshall writes that there is usually a football or baseball game about lip. m. as it does not get dark until midnight and about four hours later practically daylight again. The day seems quite advanced by the time they get up at 5:45 a.m. The boys are" learning to sleep while it is light by pulling the black-out curtains and shutting out the light. The money situation' is confusing as is English money, shillings and pence. He says the Irish and English people seem to be very friendly and are doing their most to make the boys feel at home, although their thick brogue is sometimes hard . to understand. There are many things the boys find it hard to secure and many are high in price. Seme of the things are cigarettes, slioe polish, soap, candy, razor blades, stationery, gum, tooth paste, etc. One can imagine the beauty of the country when we are told the hedges between fields have a deep orange flower and against the green fields they make an attractive pattern on the mountain side. Marshall finishes his letter by saying that he is on guard and just finished walking the first two hours. Needless to say there are many things he cannot tell us and many which we will not know until after the war. In one letter he mentioned passing through Belfast. Ireland. It is supposed that Marshall will not stay long in Ireland as the army^will probably push on to greater action. Marshall had hot received his first mailr at the date of his letter and was anxiously looking forward to getting -letters from all his friends.
