tional Guard camp at Fairview. 1t was
the first day that the regular schedule of
military duty was carried out, and in con-
sequence the camp presented IA much more
military aspect than heretofore. 1t was
the first day on which the regular drills
were carried through, and the boys found
that the camp life was not nearly SO much
a huge picnic as many had thought. OF
course, all the older members of the guard
knew what to expect, but there were many
new ones who joined the militia during the
reorganization who did not.
Extra police work was required of the
soldiers. and the camp was thoroughly
cleaned. The rain of the night before
caused some hardshps while IL was falling.
but there not enough to interfere with
theswork after it stopped. The camp was
crowded all day with visitors. and of these
the women were greatest in number.
Aside from the matter of work there were
two events yesterday which were calcu-
lated to impress upon the members of the
guard, and especially the new ones, the
seriousness of the National Guard service.
The first was the memorial service in the
Y. Nj. C. a. tent at / p. m. This service
was in memory and honor of the former
Spanish-American war and In the Philip
pines or from the result of such service.
The programme was i'm charge of Maj.
Newton w. Gilbert, of General McKee's
staff. Chaplain Knox. of The First Regi-
ment, led the song and devotional exer-
cises. He was followed by Lieut.. d. r.
Gebhart, who sang solo. Chaplain C. S.
Medbury. of the Third Regiment, read the
names of the deceased members of the
guard and followed with an address. He
endeavored TO impress upon his hearers
that their service with the National Guard
was not solely matter of sport, as many
seemed to think, and that it should be
taken in all seriousness. as each and every
member of it might at any time be called
to duty where their service might mean
death. as had been the case with those
whose names had been just read.
