There Will BE Plenty Of Games and

While There.

Officers and members Of the marine
corps probably will not be troubled
greatly with ennui at their far-away

novelty of life at the isolated little gov
ernment station will keep them con-
tented forse months. There will be
many things 10 see and hear. To guard
against discomfort and WEAKNESS OF
spirit the government will have care
for the amusement of its servants prac-
tically cut off, as they will be. from
communication with home and coun-
try. OF course there will be SWIM
ming and boating, but the sports
which the men enjoyed at home they
will also enjoy at the island OF Guam
For outdoor sports the government
will see that there is supply OF balls
and bats. footballs and tennis racquets
and balls. During the long days when
the weather outside is inclement and
there are no drills the men will be able
to play checkers, chess. cards and 9TH

has secured great supply OF suen out

There will be men who do not care
for sports and games. For such as
these there will be well-stocked IL

a large stock of books. In addition.
there are many thousand volumes OF
books and periodicals given privately
Some time ago Col. Pope made re-
quest through the papers for dona-
tons OF books and light reading mat

SO generous that Col. Pope now re-
quests that no more be sent to the
