Texas Guard in Camp.

Austin, Texas, July 22-From all
indications the encampment of the
Texas Volunteer guard which opened
today will be the most successful in
the history of the organization. With
in an hour after Major General Stacy
had raised his flag at Camp Mabry
this morning the men had their tents
pitched and the routine of camp life
was in full swing, the same as if the
young soldiers had been old veterans.
While military instruction is the pri-
mary purpose of the encampment and
the maintenance of rigid discipline
one of the cardinal features of the
program the soldiers are to have plen-
ty of opportunity to enjoy the pleas
ant features of camp life. The
sanitary arrangements are excellent
and nothing has been left undone by
those in charge to make the encap-
ment notable success.
