mess hall more melons to eat than l
had eaten before and one company
on leaving was rendered a melon
party, so 1 could not see any reason
for buying desserts very often.
Sure enough left that Saturday
for San Antonio, Texas, with the
other lads. The large number made
a fifteen car train, on which one was
a supply car, carrying our food for
our meals. Each of the other cars
was a sleeper and we passed very
fine time on our long journey down
thru Missouri, Arkansas and Texas.
At Palestine we we're all marched
out thru the town for a chance to
loosen up our stiff joints Many an
auto load followed us and some re-
sidents passed flowers to us. It was
only SO degrees in the shade and
there is a red sand there that is not
very we'll liked for it's sticking quail
tiles and tell you by the time we
reached our cars again the hot coffee
served us looked pretty good. We
reached San Antonio after thirty
three hours of train service in the
early morning. After breakfasting
there we sailed on out to Camp KEEL
ly, six miles from the city. The first
thing we saw and heard was an
aeroplane sailing along as nice as
bird right over us. Now we
thought we were to be aviators right
away we saw the machines and that
was all we needed. Ten minutes
later we we're marching down the
road to a large group of tents nearly
mile distant Still 90 degrees in
the shade and our travelling bags
with clothes made the good old
sweat roll down our faces. A little
later l was placed into a company
of one hundred and fifty men and
under the name of 72nd Squadron.
Morris tribune., 1917-10-19

early in the morning l was called
and after washing was ushered with
some two hundred other recruits like
myself into the dining hall where
seats were placed for twenty-seven
hundred men. Every one outside of
the two hundred were soldiers in
uniform.
Next on the program was the eX-
animation and at first mention 1t
put funny feeling in me. l wond-
cred what it was like and then l
wondered if I could successfully pass
it. At no cost did I want to fail.
An hour later found myself with the
boys from the Twin Cities, a regular
soldier l had passed o. K. This be-
ing Saturday we were not given uni
forms until Monday.
During the time I looked over the
place and must say that here was
very characteristic spot. Lawns and
green shrubery among the trees,
walks and roads winding here and
there made an ideal place for a pic
mic and many a gathering did I see
of this nature The large cemetery
was very striking and here was Civ
en- an idea of what war may do. Here
laid many and many soldiers who had
fought under the Grey in the Civil
War, and l wondered if I was to see
another sight of this kind, but in a
distant cline.
Monday passed quietly outside of
receiving our uniforms and eXchang
ing them for the civilian clothes. 1t
was than we learned to recognize
one another by our face instead of
by our clothes. We also received
that we'll known name of rookie"
The following days we're devoted to
mastering the acts Of drill and one
day as waiter in the mess hall when
soon learned how to hustle. Two
walters to forty men at a table and
no all-day- standardization. The drill
gOunds consisted of a large square
enclosed by trees and buildings. One
side, officers living quarters, and on
the other the office and quartering
buildings with a band stand near
one side. On these grounds I was
in a parade drill for a large parade
the following Sunday, but I was or
dered with five hundred other SOL
diers to leave Saturday afternoon
which we did, so did not get to be
in this parade which I should have
liked to do.
THE band gave a concert just be-
fore the movies every evening and
on Sunday played in the afternoons.
Additional base ball games between
league teams were played also on
Sunday afternoons and games of all
kinds played by the rockies at any
time not on duty. A large canteen
was near the parade or drill ground
and here you could buy anything
you wanted in the line of supplies or
eats. Many soldier bought a pie
or ice cream sundaes to help change
from their usual desserts to plain
good food. Here I received at the

From here on was under this squa-
dron's commanders orders and am
here still. Some of the boys have
transferred to another squadron to
fill in a position open there for which
they we're qualified.
THE tents were lined up along a
main road, twenty tents to a line in
which housed a squadron. At the
head of two such rows of tents was
near the water mains. A street or
wider space was between each two
rows of tents and thus laid out like
town. Rows of tents we're lined
up on both sides of this road to
house fifteen thousand soldiers with
large number of tents to house Of
ficers and supplies. Each tent
housed eight men and a corporal in
the eight. Over these eight men,
called a squad, there is another Off
Ger called a sergeant who has num-
Der of squadrons under him. Next
is a top sergeant who has control of
the other sergeants and above this
top sergeant is a lieutenant. AS yet
we have not finished organizing our
squadron.

HERMAN BOY TELLS OF
AVIATION CAMP LIFE
Was Student at University Farm
School Here Last Writes
to Supt. Miller

Supt. P E. Miller, of the UniVerS-
ity farm school, has recently received
a letter from Ole P. Madsen, of Her
man, student in the agricultural
school here last year, telling in an
interesting manner Of the camp life
in one of the large aviation train
ing camps of the United States.
The letter for the most part is as
follows:
"It was July 31st that found me
at the Great Northern depot wait
ing for the train to take me home.
While working about who should
I run into but Mr.. WOOdman, who
also was waiting for the same train.
LAS we were rolling over the rails
we exchanged our views of the war
and the great things we wanted to
do. l told him of my intention of
becoming an aviator and that I had
interviewed the recruiting station
officer to that effect. Three days
later l was on my way to Jefferson
Barracks, St. Louis, for final exam
ination, having passed a preliminary
examination at Minneapolis. For
twenty-three hours did I stay in that
same car and during the day time
saw some very varying views. l was
in Iowa when first daylight came
and there shone the Mississippi river
along the west side of that old river
and at five o'clock pulled into st.
Louis, Mo. After an hours view of
the town I stepped once more on a
car for the barracks some ten miles
out from the city. On my walk thru
st. Louis l was impressed with it's
Importance as a railroad center, and
here was my first experience on rid
ing an elevated railroad. The train
came into the city on this elevated
track and gradually lowered down
to the city level.
"On reaching Jefferson Barracks
it started to rain, not so very heavy,
but drilling rain, and right away
I thought I had cOme~intO a rainy
country We were met at the train
by an officer. There were nine 9TH
er recruits besides myself from the
Twin Cities and ushered into the
dining hall first for supper. A little
later on we were shown our cots in
a long barrack and at the same time
the officer in charge gave us to un-
derstand what we we're to do and
not to do. At nine o'clock lights
went out and all was quiet. This
was my first night on an army cot
and sleeping in a room with one
hundred and fifty men.

CALL OF THE COLORS.

Ai l. VI 1E JULIUS.
Pensacola, Fla, May ., 1917.
Editor of The Journal:
IN the prevailing stress to recruit
0g~ army to proportions which, up
to a very short while ago, were con
sjdered both superfluous and mdicat-
ing a tendency towards "miItarism,"
! hope that the sentiments of one
whom the "relentless hand Of time
has eliminated by the army rcgula-
tons from participating in the en-
5stments will not be considered
an2iss. Prompted by this hone, and
q sincere determination to aid my
country in any way possible, | wish
to suggest that, in view Of the un-
TreCedented augmentation of our
fighting forces, although We men
over - are exempted by the rules
from any possibility of being draft
cd Tor service, any man of fit cOndi-
ton, regardless Of age should be ac-
ceptnd for volunteer enlistment. and
thereby conserve, in q slight degree,
the valoT Of our young men who are
the flower Of our country. the pride
Of our civilization and the hope Of
our future.
l do not believe that in the above
suggestion | am expressing d sentj-
ment that is to any extent eXcep-
tional. as my conversations with mid
Cle-aged men Of my acquaintance has
convinced me that this is the CON
census Of the old mems expressed
wishes.

TODAY'S ELECTION.


Think, before casting a negative ballot
at tOdav's school tax electon-think Of the
two thousand five hundred children who
paraded the streets of Pensacola last week,
pleading for better schools, more teachers,
a high school building; think OF the thOus-
ands vet unborn WhO directly or through
inheritance, will profit by a school SYST Il
brought up to standard requirements
think OF the tremendous dividends in
humanity few dollars will yield, and the
false logic that obscurcs your vision will
be swept away as the deadly miasma of the
swamp is dissipatcd by the glorious syn-
light.
1t doesn't much matter whether YOU
vote for d one, two, or thrce-mill tax; to-
days election is but a step in the direction
of the bond issue by which a high school
that will accommodate a tWenty-ycar dc
veIopment can be built and teaching faciIi-
ties brought up to requirements generally
payment being eQuitably distributed over
the entire period by a one-milI tax.
Children when they come into this
world are all possessed OF the same mental
possibilities, and differences in develop
ment are due to differences in health and
environment That is to say. if all children
were without adenoids, if their teeth were
good, if their digestion was unimpaired by
improper feeding, if they were not given
one-sided twist by some illness: if they
came in contact only with ambitious, earn
est people. and If their school facilities were
the same. their mental progress would be
IDENTICAL
Perfection is, OF course, impossible, but
there is a steady Improvement. and civiIi-

"FlOur, $50 per barrel; meat. 40 cents per
pound and other things in proportion"

arguments against the school tax 1t might

isn't. 1t might also he an argument against

an argument against lamps. roads, neck
