DOUBT
THERE is NOW A QUESTION
WHETHER OR NOT TROOPS
WILL GO INTO CAMP.

Information regarding the encamp-
ment of the state troops is not very
profuse these days and the men are
not at all certain whether they are
going into camp or not. Letters receiv-
ed from the adjutant general office
within the past few days are rather
discouraging, and it would now appear
to be that all of the troops can get
into camp.
1t is not believed that there is suf
ficient money at the disposal of the
governor to allow all of the men to
go into camp. Col Obear is now
figuring on the expense of transporta-
ton, and it is understood that great
economy will have to be practiced
in order to allow a gg5dly number
of the men to camp. ed, !

der the direction of Miss Snyder,

Editor News:

Editor News:
The evening paper in its article
OF yesterday stated that a New Town
cltlzcn, in giving his views. could
see no reason why the citv shonld
not erect the school building in the
park and sites as precedent the fact
that the city hall, fire department..
etc, are in a park. Properly, this is
true, but New Town citizen or the
evening paper, or BOTH seem to be
| ignorant of the fact that it is not tho
city that is erecting the school but
the board of education, of the county
flynn, who are asking the city for a
lease Of SO years on the park. They
] might as well ask for 999 years: the
result would practically be the same.
The board of education would have
the park and the citizens Of
New Town would have what the cit
lzens of Old Town got, viz: an I'M
fnshed market house, beautiful citv
hall, and barn like structure for
fire department house, verify thew
dld get it in the neck, but not as bad
as our prominent New Town citizen
would have the New Town citizens
get it, because of the fact that the
city hall, and fire department. are
still their own property, but the school
house would be the property of the
county Of Glynn and eventually I'll.
people Of New Town would have no
park, our prominent citizen seems to
be in a hopeless minority for two ex.
ceptions, due to indifference, every
