Major c. r. Williams state quartermaster
Of the Wisconsin National Guard. spent Satur-
day in camp and was a very close observer Of
all that was military. The major thinks that

favorable to the systems in vogue. The WIS

q par with the regular army as is possible,
while the boys at Camp Lakeview enjoy 100

consin boys do their cooking In the open and
eat in mess tents, instead of having mess
halls. They also live on victuals cooked by
enlisted and not allowed to employ
civilian cooks. In spite Of these hardships,
many might call them, the average attend
ance of the Wisconsin guard in camp runs
very high-one regiment last year having oS
per cent OF its membership in camp. .
