Nov Is, 1917.
To The Adai County News:
Camp Shelby the Ideal training
Camp for the strengthening of the o..
S. Army is blazing with the spirit of
progress The efficiency of the officers
and patriotic enthusiasm of the re-
cruits have changed the camp from a
wilderness of pines and small marshes
to large city of tents, officers head
quarters, hospitals, mess halls, the
I theirs and the friendly walls of the
many Y. M: G. A. buildings.
The works of the artillerymen in
which am stationed is handicapped
for the want of the real inch HoWit-
Ter but not being able to get them we
are satisfied to work with a dummy.
In other words, a log placed on two
wagon wheels, built on the same pro-
portion as the real piece.
We have camp here with the popu-
lation of 10000 men under the COM
mand at present Brigadier General
Whitney. The many different ma
nuevers of the men is very anterest-
ing, the training of infantry, machine
gun, Cavalry, medical corps, and
ammunition, gradually taking on the
aspect of a body of men becoming
efficient for the great task before
them.
Every Wednesday is a holiday for
the soldier. On this day different
Batteries, companies, troops meet in
combat for the victory of base ball
games, foot ball, tug of war, relay
races, intact ideal Olympic games
take place on this eventful day to
create thurst for success that will
be needed to bring glory somewhere in
France.
Saturday the day of days when
every man and all of his possessions
must meet the approval Of the differ
emit commanders. Men shaving, wash
ing clothes, cutting hair, shining
shoes, cleaning teeth, furling tents,
all done in a spirit as If it was the
eleventh hour and ifty-ninth minute.
All personal possessions must be laid
on each Individuals cot for the per.
sonal inspection of the commander.
All must have tooth paste and
brush, soap, clean clothes and towels,
mess kits must be like china ware on
the buffet. Attenuation is called at
10 a. M. and all men fall in with a
feeling that they have left something
undone that will meet the eye of the
Inspector and desire him of the freed
ON Of Sunday day of visiting as he
chooses. All men who fail on the in
spection laugh and say they would
rather stay in Camp, and the rest rush
back to quarters with the anticipation
of the eventful day following.

Roll for DOiIies of CretOnne

A dolly roll makes a pretty gift
for the housewife and is useful to her
in more ways than one. 1t keeps her
doilies fresh and easy to get at. Moth
ing is easier to make, and very few
equally pretty gifts cost 80 little.
The rolls are usually made in two
lengths, one for centerpieces and
one for doilies. To make one a
strong pasteboard tube, such as
used for mailing is procured. Circular
pieces of cretonne are stretched over
the ends and pasted down on the
roll.
A strip of the cretonne as wide
as the tube is long is then cut off of
any length desired. One end of this
strip is trimmed in a curve and the
other left straight. The curved end
and sides of the strip are bound with
tape.
The straight end is pasted to the
roll, the cretonne wound once about
It and sewed down to form q casing
for It. Ribbon ends are sewed to the
curved end of cretonne to form ties
for fastening it when the doilies have
been rolled.
The cretonne used to make the roll
shown in the picture is striped pat
tern with small flowers scattered ovel
the surface. Dark backgrounds will
gay flowers make rolls that do no
soil easily. The ribbon used SHOULD
match the flowers or foliage In th'
pattern.
