This Is a model of cleanliness. The floor IS covered deep with sawdust which will be changed as often as becomes necessary. The tables are benches ar- ranged about the sides of the wooden structure. with running bench Tor seats- All of the twenty-five or thirty people cf the camp can be comfortably fed in this building at the same time.
 The kitchen of the camp is located at one end of the dining room, a stove has been placed into position. and the cooking will be tn charge of a man who has been employed by the Army at the Headquarters house during the past winter. Coed. wholesome food fitted to the needs of those who are the guests of the camp will be provided in abundant quantities. Two refrig- orators have been placed in shady places and will be ample for the needs of the camp.
 Captain Odom states that beginning Monday he will have two cows for the camp that the people may have fresh milk and butter at any time. Hens also have been taken out. and there will be fresh eggs in plenty.
 Finally the camp equipment is com pieted with a bath tent supplied with water by hose from the big tank be. hind the pavilion higher up the hill from the camp Occupants Of the camp will have the privilege of bath-s ing whenever they wish. and will be required to do so at least twice a week during their stay.
 Captain Odom wishes the people of Montgomery who come out to the park this afternoon or any afternoon to in- spect the camp thoroughly that they may sec that the Salvation Army Sum- mer Camp is really doing a noble work Visitors will alwaya be welcome at any time. but 1t is suggested that they come during the afternoons when 1t Is cooler.
 Tn case of rainy weather all of the tents are provided with flaps which will keep water out Also In the case there are any mosquitoes. the tents will be provided with mesquite netting to take the place of the flaps. This precautton of mosquito netting was not needed at any time of the two months camp last year, and it is not expected that they will be called into use this year
 Captain odom states that it will re- quire nt least $1,oo0 to run the en- l4rged camp through the summer. or this amount $500 has been pledged by subscription and secured through cash donation. Captain Odom feels that if the people of Montgomery would come out to inspect the camp and see for themselves the work which the Army is doing among the poor people of the city. there would be no further trouble in raising the few hundred dollars ad- ditional needed to carry out the com plete plans of the Army.
