Little Boys and Girls Be Careful !

Autoists are frequently alarmed at
the way daring children will run in
front of cars, and then suddenly jump
to one side or the other. The driver is
often at his wits end to know what the
antics of the children will be. The
average driver, and by far the MAORI
ty, are careful in the vicinity of child
rem playing in the thoroughfare. Child
rem should be warned by parents in
particular to do their part of avoiding
accidents by being careful to take no
chances of running in front of NOV
ing car.

Truly necessity is the mother of invention,
and the men from Philadelphia know how
to invent many new little stunts TO lessen
the narrowing experiences of camp life.
Keeping a razor from rustinE is one Of
the hardest things the men have to do with
their equipment. Drying them properly on
rainy days is a problem On sunshiny days
It Is no unusual thing to go down the
streets of company and see safety razor
blades ingeniously fastened between three
points of stacked bayonets, where the sun
and the wind can dry them. Companies Of
the 1st Regiment from Philadelphia are es-
peclally ingenious in this particular way.
Sergeant Walter Henrie, of Darby, says
he has the biggest appetite in Company II,
Of the 1st Regiment He admits that he
gets the biggest mess of any noncommis-
stoned officer in the company.
Tho 1st Regiment also wants n band,
because 1t was left in the lurch on the eve
Of enlistment by its regular band. At pres
ent the men have only an improvlsed band.
They are sending urgent letters to Philadel-
phia because they want tho Police Band Of
that city. Tho 1st Regiment boys were
much pleased with the music furnished
them by the Police Band during the parade
before they left Philadelphia.
