The Experiences of a Sick Seventh

Shirley l.. Holt of Company A, Seventh
regiment, has had hospital experience for
a week or more which he records in the fol-
lowing manner:
Sunday, August 2S-Today is a fine day
for San Francisco. Went out to Cliff house
for a change. When l got back to camp l
found Babe Law of my tent had been
taken to the field hospital with measles.
That leaves only two in the tent, as White
has been in the Red Cross hospital severa,

feel very we'll myself.
Monday-We had usual drill this morn
ing, but went bathing instead Of drilling
this afternoon. I didn't go in as I was a
little under the weather. went to see the
doctor at p. m, and he put me in the "sus-
pect" tent to see what was the matter with
me. There are four men and nurse here
Tuesday-Doctor came in this morning
and said he thought 1 had measles, but
couldn't tell yet AS had all the measles
one man could stand up under some years
ago, 1 thought this second dose an impo-
sition. The other four men were sent away
in the ambulance and the nurse was re-
lieved. I have been here all day alone ex-
cept for the sentry who guards the door to
keep me in and others out. The tent Is a
big one and the wind blows through like
fun. I don't feel sick, only a Mttle upset.

NEXT WEEK
Frank James the Principal Speaker at
Last Nights Meeting-The
Republican Platform

The Hickory club decided al its regular
meeting last night 20 hold picnic at Santa
Monica on the day of the Democratic con-
ven ton, Members of the club and their
families will participate. and electric cars
will be secured to carry the club in body.
Full particulars will be given later.
On motion Of James Holman. it was de-
cided hat all members of the club three
months in arrears of dues shall not be en-
titled to vote in the club and those five
months in arrears shall stand expelled.
| Frank James was the first speaker of the
| evening. He said, in part:
| For the first time in the later history Of
| the politics Of this state and nation the
Republican party has violated the code Of
ethics, ignored the rules Of decercy and
adopted platform in which a personal at
tack is made upon an opposing candidate.
To add insult to intended injury. this plat
| form reiterates a falsehood, the truth Of
which was known by the very men who
wrote the platform; al any rate, by a large
majority of The men who voted for the
adoption of the same.
mot content with having violated all
precedents in platform making, the nom
inee for governor Of that party, our towns

so far forgot himself, perhaps through ex-
element, as to make these planks of per-
sonal abuse the theme of his speech at the
pavilion the other night

however, the caliber of the men whom the
Republican party hopes will represent this
district in the halls Of congress. 1t is we'll,
however, that the speech was made. Mr..
Waters cannot go to congress unless he re-
ce!ves the votes of members of the fusion
pool Of discomfort to which he pays his
compliments
Mr.. James then took up state issues
and briefly pointed out the differences in
the two platforms, saying that all the good
planks in the Republican platform were
copied from the Democratic platform, but
the former had sufficient original matters
to condemn it forever.
Capital speeches were also made by Prof
J. T. Black and Ariosto McCrimmon, the
Issues Of the campaign being handled with
