THE PLATTSBURGH MILITARY
TRAINING CAMPS.

Cat the request of the Monitor,
Principal F. Jay Bates prepared the
following regarding the Plattsburgh
military training camp.)
In any discussion of the life at the
Plattsburgh military training camps
at Plattsburgh, n. Y, it is well to
keep in mind how the camps came into
existence and what the objects the war
department has in mind in carrying on
the work. Now that the camps have
passed beyond the experimental stage
and have become established as per-
manent feature of our military policy,
it behooves every one Of US who consld-
ers himself patriotic American citi-
zen to inquire into the signifcance.of
this novel scheme of our governments
preparedness scheme.
In June, 1915, movement was start
ed among the younger professional and
business men and resulted in the
PlattsbUrgh training camp for business
and professional men of 1915, with an
attendance of 1900 men. Like the STU
dent camps, these camps had the
approval of the war department and
were supervised by regular army
officers and in conjunction with troops
of the regular army. Owing to the
marked success of the 1915 camps,
| pIduS W6IS LlaUS LUZ SSCtIOIldI
on large scale for the present sum-
mer. There will be five camps this
summer, the first began June 5 and
ran until July 2, the last will run for
month and close October 5. Present
indications s1e that at least 10000 will
attend these camps this summer.
The objects Of these camps are: %
to train properly, as far as time will
! permit, qualified men to become avail
| able as commissioned officers in case
Of national emergency; (2) TO foster a
patriotic spirit, and TO disseminate
among our citizens some knowledge of
military history, policy and needs; 81
/ to instill in the recruit the habits Of
| obedience, discipline, command and
| self-control that are essential to busi-
ness efficiency, and to send men back
home properly equipped to meet any
responsibility.

Columbus, New Mexico,
Aug. II, 1916.
Editor Orleans County Monitor,
Dear Sir:
A little incident occurred today
which made me think of the days that
spent in Barton. A party in Ran
GoIph sent 70 each Of the men in the
Mass. NATL GuarG,, who were born in
Vermont pound box of maple sugar
which [ am sure brought to the minds
Of ali Of Us memories of the sugar
places of Vermont, where no doubt
all Of US have INDUCED to the full
satisfaction OF our appetites in that
dainty for which Vermont is justly
famous. The I'd Mass. Regt. Of the
Natl Guard, of which | am member is
stationed at Columbus, N. NJ, which
is the base for Gen. Pershing's expedi-
tion into Mexico. Our camp is about
two miles from the border and we can
see from here mountains IS or 100
miles south in Mexico. The. climate
here is far from being as agreeable as
the summers in Vermont, as the tenn
perature gets up to 120 degrees
occasionally and is at least 80 degrees
every day. The heat, however, is not
| hard to bear because of the altitude,
which is 4063 feet above sea level.
| The country surrounding US is nearly
! fiat sandy plain covered with grease
wood and cactus while horned toads,
lizards, jack rabbits and rattlesnakes
are almost the only inhabitants. The
nights are quite cool. blankets being
necessary at night and breeze blow
ing nearly all the time. Now is the
rainy season which lasts but a few
weeks and then there is no more until
the next year. There is practically no
agriculture carried on here except for
a few ranches scattered miles apart.
Crops must be irrigated and all
water comes from driven wells. From
4 mountain six miles to the north we
can see a lake down in Mexico but we
can not GO boating as we are not
allowed to cross the border.
Will say just word as to our daily
routine. We rise at 80 a. M, set
ting up drill or monkey drill 6 a. m,
mess call; 6, 80, police call to clean up
the company street; 7.30 to 1l.30,
drill and instruction; II, mess IL to 3,
at liberty; till a. bayonet drill; 4
till 5, at liberty; 5, mess, 5. SO retreat !;
$50 till II, at liberty.
Sundays we are free all day except
that we must attend church.
! thought that perhaps this might be
of interest to you and your readers if
you care to print it and at the same
time let my old friends in Barton know
Wbere l am. | would be very much
pleased 10 hear from any of my Barton
friends. My address is Neal M. Lewis,
[ Co.. I'd Regt. Mass. Inf, Natl
| Guard, Columbus, New Mexico.
Respectfully yours,
