 Nogales. Arizona, July 19.-Today's work has been somewhat curtailed on account of the intermittent showers
 that have passed over the camp
 grounds. During these lay-offs the coming mails and have had a regular "old home week" gathering and reading letters from parents, brothers. sisters and friends. Until one has been long from home and friends he cannot appreciate how good it seems to get a letter from them. A box of "smokes" and chewing gum from the girls at the Stanley Works was received today. It was appreciated too, and if the girls could have heard the nice things said about them they would be sure
 that they are appreciated.
 Each day a new drill of calisthenic
 exercises is added to the program and the men are getting into fit physi- cal form. The regimental band starts l off the day by giving a short parade and concert.
 Soldiers Appreciate Help. J The last batch of Heralds received tell of the campaign to be waged in l New Britain for the welfare of the 1 boys on the border. The men realize 1 that the Herald, being one of the first l to start the appeal editOrially and l otherwise, has done much towards attaining this end and they certainly appreciate it. All that is being done
 for them by the Herald, by the mayor, | by George M. Landers and the other 1 people in New Britain is appreciated i and the boys are determined that by 1 results they will prove it.
 The water system has almost l reached Company I street and when it ] does the boys will have a welcome re- | spite from acting as "water boys" At present every pail, dipper and tin can 1 in camp has to be utilized in carrying 1 in water for the cooks. With install 1 latiOn of water all that the men will i have to worry about is the arrival of l the pay master, the issue of summer 1 uniforms in place of the heavy wool en ones and letters from home As
 surcd of these things they would have
 to invent a complaint.

 Becoming more familiar with the | geography herea bouts, we now know
 that to the west of the camp is the | Orc BlancO range. This is the Spanish | word TOT W hlte Gold range. Still fur
 ther to the westward rises the maies- l tic PinO BlancO and Pinita BlancO 1 (words for Pine and Little Pine re- | spectively). The last two named are l wild and WoOley in every sense of the
 word and are inhubitated by bears and 1 mountain lions. Upon learning that
 there are bears and lions in this viciri- 1 ly Fri. Callahan thought it would be | a good idea to go shooting, but when 1 his attention was called to the fact
 !rat the only shooting he had ever 1 do was With Q b:.!iard cue he l changed his mind.
 May Reject More Men. l It is being reported about camp that 1 before another week has passed there | Wilj be anOtl.r series Of physical ex- l aIulnatiOnS. Both New Britain cOnl- | pa lies are reported as having several l men on their roll who may fall by 1 the waysido i1 these exams. Every l other company is in the same fix, ] however, and if reports now being eff 1 culated are true, there will be close l to a half hundred men from the First 1 Regiment who Viii be rejected. This ! seems hardly fair since they have l stood it so we'll thus far. Each mar is i worrying lest !,e be one of tie u1tOr- tl:, ate ones to be rejected.
