Effect = Captain caughIan Fayors
Such an Undertakins-Wcuid Be
Modern and Hysienic.

The Iowa National Guard may es-
tabl;sh permanent camp in the vi
entity of Des Moines, near the location
of the army post.For some time such an
undertaking as this has been talked
of but nothing has been accomplished
to further the idea. A movement is on
foot at present to have the state pur-
chase 100 acres of land adjoining the
army post to be used as permanent
camp for the Iowa National Guard, a
rendezvous similar to Camp Lincoln
at Springfield, H., where all the regi-
ments of the militia of that state go
into camp once a year. Much agita-
ton has been raised since the sugges-
ton that like camp be established
in Iowa and several officers, both line
and staff, have expressed themselves
as being heartily in favor OF a perma
nent camp at Des Moines.

proposed permanent camp said: 81 am

such thing is accomplished it will be
the means of giving the different com
panies a more thorough training in a
military way, being in camp with the
regulars and this fact will greatly
stimulate the guardsmen to be more
persistent in their drills. Des Moines
is the best possible place for perman.
