our hall is just large enough
for the regiment, and since its
construction has been kept in
constant use, particularly since
a large amount of reading mat
ter has arrived. In this build
ing all sorts of meetings are held,
from band practices, Glee Club
rehearsals to officers school,
church services and lodge gath
erings. Regimental entertain
ments are to be he'd onve ev-
cry two weeks, with the first
one scheduled for tomorrow
night. Beginning last Sunday the
Hall is given over once a month
for services for the Catholic
men of the regiment under the
direction of a priest from a near
by town.
One man is responsible for
this building g-for the conduct
of the regimental athletics and
for all welfare interests Of the
boys of the Second, namely, Ma
jor E. C. Clemons, the chaplain.
There is no man more highly
respected among both officers
and men on these grounds than
is this chaplain. There are few
men who have had a longer and
more continuous record of ser
vice with the National Guard
organization than the same
chaplain. He is a Minnesota
man, a graduate Of Shattuck,
when that school was young. For
133 years he has been member
of the Second regiment, begin
ming as a private, holding posi-
tions of a sergeant, sergeant
major, captain and finally hon
ored with rank of Major. Since
1892, with the exception of two
years he has been the chaplain
of the regiment. In 1898 he
went with the regiment to Chic
kamauga, serving there during
the six months of mobilization
with the exception of four weeks
when he was furloughod home
with an attack of typhoid few.
er. When the President ISSUED
his summons to the Guard or
June 19 last, the chaplain on 8
vacation tour Immediately facec
! about to return to 'his boys
One of the biggest frights Of
his life, he ayers, came at Fort
Smelling, when he was apparent
ly ruled out by the physical ex
aminations and did not know
until an hour before the trai1
left for the South that the wal
department had granted hin
special permission to accompany
the regiment. In civilian life
the chaplain is known as Doctor
C,emons and has been associated
for years with the importan
Board of Conference Claimant
of the Methodist church.
Down here the chaplain is no
thought of in denominations
terms, but as mans man, mos
earnestly interested in the con
tentment of these men and il
the general moral tone of thi
camp. l suspect a chaplain
job could run to a "soft snap,
for he is under no orders TO
his work, except as he handle
the mail. But our chaplain i
not given to vacation sort o
existence on this job. He is on
of the busiest men in the camp
arranging meetings, athleti
schedules, calling on boys in tn
| hospital, interviewing men a
they come to him. He is con
stantly where he can do tn
boys the most good. His Sun
day services are attractive no
because his messages have
salving effect, but because the
are tonics.
In the construction of Moll
son Hall, the chaplain did no
4 wait until complete funds coul
be raised, but assumed the in

debtedness himself with the
faith that he could later secure
assistance from Minnesota
friends. He has also sought to
raise funds to buy some of the
athletic equipment, a part of
which large expense is borne by
profit made off the Regimental
Exchange. If any one who reads
this cares to help with a good
investment for others, l am sure
the chaplain would appreciate
! his contribution sent direct to
him at this camp.
Last week | made mention of
the chaplain's approval Of Sun
day ball here, which in all fair
ness to him and to others who
hold a like view needs some ex-
planation. Disappearing Of the
game on Sundays in our north
ern home town is no reason for
objection to it here. In this iso-
lated camp the game causes Of
fense to no one as played on
Sunday. 1t is not commercial
lied in the least; no admission
charges are made. Most of all
it tends to hold most of the men
in camp on a day when they are
given full liberty. On these
grounds the chaplain has given
his full approval to the Sunday
game.
An order was issued this week
Monday, of particular interest
to fellows attending high school
or college or those who plan to
enter some school. This order
calls for the dismissal of all
bona ide cases as just men
toned by September l, unless
the soldiers be mustered out be-
fore that time or unless unex-
pected military necessity arises.
It has been estimated that about
$50 in the Second regiment can
take advantage of this order.
The rest Of the men will stay
to atone for the simple offense
of not being school OF college
students. In fact, not all those
who have planned to go to school
this fall care to take advantage
of this order.
The past week occurred the
first death in camp when Ser.
geant Jones Of B Company, oul
regiment, passed away at the
field hospital. This regretable
event cannot be ascribed to con
ditions in camp, as this man was
suffering with a chronic disease
before he left home. By some
chance he managed to safely
pass the medical examination al
Fort Smelling.
