Perhaps this is not an ordinary case and the fault may be mine. In your issue for May 19 I find the following: If it is necessary to maintain a standing y not pay the soldiers good wages ¢ them do useful work when not cach day would certainly be the rest of the time let in be employed on work of national im- onservation and reclamation proj- provements of landways and ete, This would make of them efficient, patriotic citizens instea idlers’ they are now. I do not find any wit in this and therefore presume it meant wholly as a Parenter and Maw: Steel Shutters, Burglar for outalde and Inalde of town and country houses: very durable, convenient and artistic wisdom. If so it will go wherever there is Lire, doing its mite of good if correct and its might of harm if false. Iam not going to consider here cither its truth or falsity. My pur- pose is entirely different but wholly earnest, and I hope it may receive carnest consideration. Briefly, then, I should like through you to extend to the author of the above squib an honest and cordial in- vitation to visit some military post to spend from three we to three months as a guest thereof. I cannot ask for the author as a personal guest because I am temporarily on detached service, and he could see no soldiers here. This need make no difference. If he will be so good as to accept this invitation in the form given T will veuch for a direct invitation from an established post, where he will be just as welcome as though I were present, and where everything possible will be done to make his visit pleasant. Within reasonable limits I will try to suit his choice as to location. I hope that you and he will accept this invi- tation in the spirit meant. There are no conditions, He is invited as a guest and as a friend. If, after he has observed the facts of the soldier's life, he cares to put what he finds into words, at no greater length than in- cluded in the above clipping, and Lire cares to publish them, I shall be glad. This, however, is a suggestion, not a requirement, and nothing is asked be- yond the pleasure of a cordial accept- ance of a cordial invitation. Very sincerely yours, Gro. H. Suettoy, Major, U. S.
