Just back of the Eighth Camp
can be seen several companies pitch
ing shelter tents. The company on
the right of the three shown is Co. /.
The pyramidal tent in the left fore
ground in the picture is the Eighth
Regiment guardhouse. The long white
tent to the right and close to 1t is the
supply tent, in which is stored all the
supplies for the regiment. In the
open space in the foreground is the
regimental parade ground and the
sentinels on guard can be seen.
All through the Pennsylvania Di-
vision Encampment the modern
conical tents are being used, as will
be. observed in the picture, instead of
the wall tents occupied at the mobili-
zation camp at Mt. Gretna, They are
far moro roomy and comfortable, al
of men, and will withstand the wind
storms better than the old-fashioned
rectangular tents.
Large mess halls are rapidly taking
the place of the old canvas mess tents,
erected with poles and ropes, a num-
ber OF which are to be seen in the pic
ture. Many of the commands have
completed the erection of their new
halls. The structure Is of wood with
solid adobe Ga mixture of alkali sand
with water) floor. The sides of the
mess hall are open, with fine screening
along the outside to keep out flies and
other insects. Every company In the
division will put up permanent and
sanitary mess halls.

Hughes Wins; All Over
But Shouting, Says Knox

New York, Sept. Is. - Former Sem
ator Philander c. Knox. of Pennsylva-
MIA, came to Republican headquarters
TO tell Chairman Wilcox that the re-
suit in November is foregone con-
clusion.
.The people have ceased to regard
the election of Hughes and Fairbanks
as other than a certainty" Knox said.
I'VE are going. to have a majority in
the United States Senate. The election
IN Maine showed that conclusively. To
my mind 1t proved also that the whole
country has been aroused to the need
for a change in national control, both
in the White House and In Congress.
'The people are voting for princi-
pies this year. not for personality. The
election of Hughes and Fairbanks is
the surest political prospect in many
years. OF course the result in Penn
sylvania is foregone conclusion

SOMETHING rs ALL WRONG.

In the December issue of the Wom-
ans Home Companion two writer's show
the curious contrast of viewpoint on
marriage held by modern young men
and women. Several young men were
asked why they avoided matrimony,
and one, whose engagement had been
broken, made the following comment
on the up-to-date girl:
"I want just a common, garden va
riety of wife, like my father married.
There can't be two business careers un-
der one roof. I'm willing to work like
two, If she'll drop hers. And, let me
tell you, when I'm the head of big
automobile concern. I'll issue ukase
no girls employed in any branch of
the plant That's what think of mat
rimony for the business girl. Business
warps her view on the home, the hus-
band and babies. She thinks she wants
all three of them, and she does; but
her salary. her financial independence,
the habit of earning have a stronger
hold on her. My stars, what bunch
of tight-wads and tyrants our male an
cestors must have been!'"
In striking contrast to this view is
that of the young heroine of THE Ris.
ing Tide"
"'Shall | make the soap, or knit
Mortimore's stockings? Or do you want
me to wait on the table, and put Flora
out of job? No; where people have
any money at all, home duties" as far
as girls are concerned, are played out
Machinery is the cuckoo that has
pushed women out OF the nest of do
mesticity. That's not original with
me, she added, honestly, but it's true
haven't anything to do at home, sc
I've got to do something outside!'"
