DISTRICT NATIONAL GUARD CAMP.
WARREN, Ariz, August 4.-One month
ago this evening the Signal Corps and
Field Hospital units and the 1st SepaS
rate Battalion of the District National
Guard left Rosslyn, Va, for the bor-
der.
1t has been month that the members
of these units long will remembered. First
came five days and five nights of travel
through country that was new to most
of them, and then their arrival on the
border, an event that had been fore
most in their minds since the Sunday
night in June when word spread
through Washington like wild fire that
the President had issued an order
mobilizing the National Guard of the
country for federal service.
The District national guardsmen now
in the border country never will for
get July 4, 1916, the date of their de-
parture from home. Recollections of

also will remain with them. for then
it was that they reached their destina-
ton, the 1st Separate Battalion going
on to Naco, and the Signals Corps and

A mess fund has been established in

serts that are not included in the army

Detrain in Rain.

A drizzling rain was falling when
the militia men detrained on that even
ing. Tonight the weather was about
the same. The rain was not welcomed
on that first night on the border. for
the guardsmen had had their fill of
rain while encamped at Fort Myer. Va.
Tonight conditions are different. The
pattering Of the raindrops on the tents
is music to the ears of the militiamen
who have learned something of the dry
Arizona climate and appreciate what a
blessing rain is in this section of the
country.
Fortunately for the District militia
men. weather conditions have not been
severe since their arrival here. There
have been a few hot days when the
mercury in thermometers attained a
high level that the men from the Ma
tional Capital never before had seen,
but in every instance they have been
followed by cool nights.
The militiamen have been told that
the rainy season which started just
about the time the District National
Guard units arrived in this section
probably will continue a few weeks
longer and then a hot, dry season will
follow. Cool weather is not expected
until about Christmas time.

them every day.

mGu 4duuSo
II this is true. the District men will
be prepared to withstand the hot
weather with fewer discomforts than
what would have been the case had
they arrived here when the hot season
was at its height Everybody has taken
on a good coat of tan that will fortify
them against the hot winds of the fall.
They have become accustomed to the
change of water and no longer are ex-
periencing trouble from this source.
Muscles have become firmer. Feet have
become accustomed to walking over the
rocky ground that prevails for miles
around. In other ways have the militia
men become prepared for the hardships
of any campaign that may follow.
The camps of the District guard units
have been almost entirely free from
sickness. Some men have suffered from
minor complaints. but none has been
troubled by illness more than two or
three days.
The food the men have received dur
ing their first month in the field has
been rough but good. With the excep-
ton OF one or two days, when COM
missary supplies were delayed in ship
ment, there has always been an
abundance of food for every one.
