GOOD CONDITIONS
IN CO. F CAMP
Reports From Two Sources In
dictate Militia Men
Are Happy.

From two different sources re-
ports reached south Bend Thursday
that the conditions in the militia
camp at Lano Grande, Texas where
CO. f. is located. are the best that
could be expected and not unsani-
tary as some are inclined To believe.
Donald d. Gard a member of the To-
cal company writes as follows:
Someone has been circulating re-
ports about some of the boys being
sick or hurt Now these reports are
absolutely false and We woulG like
TO have you print these facts IN or
may be set at ease"
First Lieutenant Otto Deiu. for
merly a member of the detective de-
partment of the south Bend police
department has writ n 10 Ellis
Diver TO the effect that those who
have been circulating unfavorable
reports are the recruits who are not
accustomed TO any of the hardships
connected with army and camp life.
Dietl declares that conditions are ex-
ceedingly satisfactory considering all
the facts.
In his letter 10 the News Times
Gard says that large Y. NJ. c. A.
has been arranged especially for the
Indiana troops and that baseball
teams have been organized in each
of the regiments. This furnishes the
soldiers with much entertainment
during their recreation periods.
There has been considerable rain
but the troops have become accus-
toned TO this and know how TO care
for themselves.

Father Cavanaugh's two new cars

and John recognized his own wisdom
in choosing a plumber for his chauf-

car turned around-for John is very
strong. Merrily they rolled along
making a winding path on a straight
road. till. about five miles out Mac
Linden would not obey Johns orders
or the car would not obey MacLn-
dons orders-the testimony is a lit
tie confused here-and the car in
stead of making straight for the
bright lights of south Bend, made a
curve for the dark and thorny road
, side hedge MacLindon made away
from his post of duty.
Mangan sat - his post though
thOrns and darkness assaiIed him.
he was rewarded with the delight
of seeing the car go only half way
through. The same with the thorns,
for. when the doctor extracted them.
he pulled them back instead of push
ing them on. Still. when John up
braided Dan for his cowardice in
running away Dan wanted TO know
what he was doing when the thorns
gained entrance in the parts where
found.
The chaufeurs reached town
ahead of their car.
