BOYS ENJOY LIFE
 AT PLUM ISLAND CAMP
Young Rockies Learning a Lot Thesc
 Days.

At Camp Washington, Fort Terry, Plum Island, with the blue-green water of Long Island sound tossing around them, the stiff salt breeze right off the Atlantic blowing through them, in morning mtsts and fogs and husky boys on the edge of manhood are being whipped into soldiers at a remarkable rate, says a, correspondent. There are many boys from wealthy and famous American families, and many others from the families of working people in half a dozen eastern cities. All are comrades in arms, and in their concentration to master the arts of close and open order drill, the handling of the 12-inch m0rtars, none stops to ask whether his tent compan- ion is the son of a bank president or a cart driver, and nobody cares. It is an intensely dramatic camp that Col. Andrew Hero and his adjutant, Lieut. H. c, Mclean, of the Twenty ninth in fantry, dominate.
 The boys went to the camp of in struction July 9th from schools and homes in 24 states, as far west as Kansas City and as far south as Charleston. The camp ends Aug. 10. Already the boys are Q, healthy bronze, with shoulders straight, coats of tan on face, neck and arms and they eat like troopers on a campaign. Purpose of Camp. The purpose of the few weeks drill 1 is not to make soldiers of the boys in 1 that time, but to show them how much there is to learn.
