Power In Associations.

There is power in these assOci-

this may be accomplished under the

Dye the Army Horses.

Invisible horses will be an adjunct
to the American army If Uncle Sam
fights with Mexico or any other coun-
try.
They're making them invisible now
at Camp Jones, just east of Douglas
Conspicuous gray horses are treated
with a dye that darkens them to such
color they're almost invisible at 300
yards or more on the deserts of Ari-
zona or Mexico.
In the low desert hills you can some
times see a man sitting ON nothing ana
gallOping through the air. You know
he's on a horse, Of course, but you
can't see the horse.
Veterinary Coleman NOckolds of the
First cavalry started dyeing horses
They were the first dyed for United
States army use.
In 1905 an effort was made to intro
duce the system in this country, fol.
lowing its successful use by the British
army against the Beers in South Afri
ca. But the war department notified
the veterinaries, "There are no paints
on hand for this purpose" and the plan
was dropped.
NOckolds and Veterinary A. L. Ma
son Of the Sixth field artillery have
dyed number of mounts at Camp
Jones with good results. Gray horses
are colored so they can't be identified
in group Of six pulling a gun.
The dye lasts until the horses begin
shedding hair. then it must be renewed
But it's simple operation. and the
animal can be dyed and dried in an
hour. Generally he gets q second coat
to give him a more even color

INDIANA CHAPLAIN
EXPLAINS HIS.
Called Up to Do Many Things
Besides Looking After the
Spiritual Interests of
His Regiment.

One of the popular men In the Third
Indiana regiment, stationed at Mer-
cedes, Tex, is the Rev. Fred Thorn
burg, who is the regimental chaplain
and the pastor OF the Fire. NJ. E.
church Of Decatur. Chaplain Thorn
burg's tent has a library, Il desk and a
whole lot of things crowded into a
small space. But he is so busy that lie
does not have much time TO enjoy it's
comforts,
"The primary duties OF chaplain
are, Of course, looking after the spirit
ual interests in his regiment" said
Chaplain Thornburg. There are other
duties, however, that are placed upon
him. He is the regimental postmaster
and hence has a varied experience
along lines that only postmaster can
have. l think a few observations re-
garding the mail would not be amiss to
our friends back home
Letters to soldier should be ad-
dressed clearly to his company and
regiment, not forgetting the state from
which the regiment cOmes-thus,

There are the First, Second and Third
