Society Los GringOs PunitivOs

DoSiety hVa AAihbVe uhAtA'oS
Among the celebrations that
marked the Ith Of July, one of
the most enjoyable reported, was
that of the Society Los Gringos
Punitiyos. This society is com
posed of employees Of the quar-
termaster's corps Of the army
and was organized at Columbus
on April 30, 1916, to commemor-
ate the punitive expedition into
Mexico and has for its objects
the perpetuation of the associ
atiOns formed during the exist.
ence of the punitive expedition
and to foster the spirit of Amer.
lean patriotism and pride in
American institutions, as well as
TO incucate the principles of
friendship.
The entire personnel of the so
cicty in Columbus, accompanied
by six candidates for admission,
left Columbus i'm three motor
trucks at about ZOO p. IN. and
arrived at the mining camp of
Tres Hermqnas at about 300 p.
m. Here the trucks were un
loaded and under the blue can.
opy of heaven the first initiation
ceremony of the society was car
ried out. The drill team, con.
sisting of Messrs. Shields. Smith
and Stack, known as the Triple
s. administered the mystic rites
of the Burning Mesa" and the
"Osculatory Burro,' the work
being directed by FL Gringo Pc
quino Mitchell. After the mi.
tiatory services were concluded
refreshments were served and
were immensely enjoyed as the
long ride had served to sharpen
appetiteS. The refresh IN n :
towed away, various games
were INDUCED in until the length
ening shadows gave warning of
the approach of night, when de
spite the kind invitations of the
citizens of Tres Hermanas to re
main and attend a Bale all
piled into the trucks and record
run was made fer Colum bus.
The birth of this society was
due TO a suggestion of MIR. c +.
Daily, assistant to the quarter
master general Of the army, who
was recently in Columbus on an
inspection trip from Washington,
/ ID. c., and what at that time was
organized only as a local affair
1 now gives promise of becoming
a national society, as many inqul
ricS have been received from a.
far away as New York, from in
diyiduals who have seen service
with the expedition and are de
>irouS of joining the society.
The officers of the society are

Most Of the mem bers have
seen service in Cuba, China, Por
to Rico and the PHILIPPINES and il
was the fast that 50 many re-
unions of Old Timers - occurred
, here that prompted the idea OF ;
society, which while having a,
its main idea the cOmmemora
ton of the sojourn i'm Columbus
would also serve to keep IN,
; members in touch with one an

"YOur Uncle Sam
As a Road Builder r
Constructs Military Highways Into
Mexico to Feed the Punitive
Expedition
BY JEAN CABALL o'NEHL

The punitive expedition seems
to have reached the mechanical
stage, not in a spiritual sense,
for there is nothing mechanical
in the manner in which the
officers and men are putting IN
their days in harness, but be
cause the progress of events has
come to point that mechanical
aids to the business OF keeping
the men in fighting trim are the
chief factors in the scheme Of
things here. Road building is
now in progress in "a scientific
manner over "A great extent OF
Mexican territory, because the
millions of tons of weight that
have passed over the trail in the
past twelve weeks have cut so
deep into the ground that when
rain comes the section where the
American troops are located Will
be cut of from this base. For
this purpose there are now new
road building machines, costing
"a great deal of money, lying here
waiting until tie progress OF
the roadmakng calls them into
play. The engineers Of the
United States army are in com
mand of the work, but most OF
the workers seem to be poems,
who are cheap, II nothing else.
Some OF the civilian truck drivers
are helping on this hard service,
but they are quite cheerful IN
their labors, Tor they have had
SO many awful jolts from the
badness of The going they will

The uuUer world has not the
slightest conception of the al

Is strung along in desert and

II is not permitted to say how
many soldiers and horses anu
mules are now in active service,
but the men are eating four hun.
dred thousand pounds of bacon,
hardtack, potatoes, beef and can
ned stuffs each week.
And none of that material is
found I'm Mexico, unless a little
fresh beef is counted in; water
also is often carried, and oil, and
then the thousands of farticles for
maintenaceof trucks and hospital
and equipment of man and beast.
All this gigantic supply service
is under the quatermaster's de.
partment, and the chief officer in
this splendid work is Major j II.
Madden. He is'the boy wonder
for what he can accomplish, and
better still forwhat he can inspire
others to accomplish.
Directly under Major Madden
and in charge of all construction
work is Capt. S. b. Pearson.
The latter has had much eX.
perience in pig construction
work and is said to think in
thousands -
The supply of the food, forage,
etc, needed for this expedition
would be a serious problem if it
was shipped by railway alone,
but add to this the fact that
everything has to be brought To

At six a. IN. the massed bands

beautiful music, and at the end
of the day again the massed

assistance Of vocal selections

finished out day of peace and
pleasure, even if it was passed
in the American war zone.
Two ball games were pulled

first game was between married

ence it was taken in good part.
Regulars and National Guards
also measured strength in a
hotly.contested game.
There was a varied program
OF athletic contests, including
mounted wdestling, foot races,
potato races, three.legged races,
human wheelbarrow race, sack
race, high jump, buckjng con
