Communication

Providence, R. l., July 81
Dear mother: Am enclosing
clipping showing the results of
our work in camp last week.
Some shooting, believe me; we
fired at almost 5 mile range,
getting 3 hits cut of 3 shots in
3 minutes. That is the record
for R l. and possibly for the
National Guard of the whole
country. The boys worked
hard and our camp was a per-
feet success. We stood 100 per
cent on the daily inspections,
were highly complimented by
the regulars on our discipline,
soldierly appearance and be-
havior. The whole state is con-
graduating me today; the gov
ernor is to write me a letter,
the Secretary of War is to do
the same and the legislators
are calling me up every few
minutes to congratulate me.
Just now | am some man in
Providence.
1t was a great week, with
perfect weather and much fun
at headquarters; lots of visitors
and when we were off duty,
which was only in the evenings,
we danced and listened to the
band or smoked cigarettes in
the club and jollied the regulars.
Captain Deugler of the U. s. A.
and | became great friends and
he gave me many valuable
pointers for use this winter.
Everybody here is expecting
war. Germany seems determ-
ined to pick row with us and
think we ought to accommodate
her now rather than wait until
the war over there is over and
we have to fight her alone. If
war comes it will find the 3rd
ready They swear by their
Captain and with the results
shown last week they will 20
anywhere with me. They are
a splendid bunch, clean, Young,
educated and intelligent, | sure
do love my Company.
Health is great, brown as q
berry and eat and sleep like a
harvest hand. Am going to
write Lulu today. sending her
clippings am sure you will
| all be glad to know that the
Company is not a failure in my
hands. Also when l was elect
ed | was told | could not take
the Company to camp as we did
not have Al qualified men,
went to camp with So and won
the trophy.
am not swelled up, just hap.
ply and satisfied. Write soon.

Surprise Party

Miss Florence Schulmeister
was quietly spending an even
ing at home last evening when
telephone call came that her
father wished to see her down
town Immediately. Imagining.
of course, that some terrible
accident had occurred, she
rushed down town breathless.
Upon her arrival at her ia
theirs office. she was directed
to the K. c., hall where she
was astonished to find sixty of
her young Catholic friends as
sembled to give her a surprise.
1t surely was a true surprise
and it took several minutes for
Florence to gain her equilibri-
UNI. Dancing and games were
enjoyed by the young people
and at the close of the evening,
refreshments were served.
AS a slight token of their ap-
probation and friendship for
the brjde-to-be, Miss Anna Kir-
ley, in very clever little
speech presented Florence with
a handsome chest of Commun-
i'y silver. She was born and
raised in this city and counts
her friends by her acquaint.
ances. 1t was a very late hour
when goodnights were said and
Florence was profuse in her
thanks to her many Catholic
friends for remembering hel
with such a handsome gift.
Mrs Nettie Hinkle and chill.

from Bancroft, Neb, where
they have been visiting rela,
tives for the past two months

New Ford Prices

According to information
Just received from the Ford
company in Detroit, the new
prices for 1916 will be $40 for
the touring car and $500 for
the runabout. A number Of
wildcat stories have been float
ing around the past month
about the new Ford prices but
this announcement sets all
these stories at rest. Last year
the car sold for $500 with q re-
bate Of $50 so the price remains
the same as no rebate is an
nounced for this year. No
speedometer is included in this
years equipment but the re-
mainder Of the equipment is
