The boys are all quar- tered in comfortable tents and above them one can see the huge airships from the aviation camp at Mineola just short distance away, flying hither and thither at al hours of the day. The Alabama boys are all happy and wonderfully en- thusiastic, and although they had an epi- demic of measles, which has caused them to be under quarantine for sometime, they are otherwise in the best of health. During the time they've been under quarantine a group of New York women made trips to Camp Mills and have done everything possible for the boys to make them comfortable and happy and the same little coterie of women has volun- teered, so Major Moon told me, to fur nish every man in the regiment with sweater muffler, wristlets and a pair Of woolen socks"

C1TJ HE members of the Music Study
 club are quite thrilled with the
 S idea of having John Powell, the well known pianist, with them so early in the season as one of the major at fractions. Many interesting incidents of his life are being told and one of the most interesting is a little story about his wife meeting with Rodin, the famous modern sculptor
 Together with the creator of 'Le Pen- seur." Flammarion, the astronomer, Max Nordau and others equally distinguished Mir. Powell was guest of Englisb friends who had villa at Versailles, not far from Paris.
 After luncheon one day Mir. Powell was asked to play. and, going to the piano, began his impromptu recital with a Bee thoven sonata He had scarcely finished when he found M. Rodin standing at his side Drawing up a chair, the French man immediately plunged into discus sion of the music of Beethoven. Bach and Brahms were next touched on, and Mir Powell played something by Brahms Without giving the slightest indication as to his opinion of the pianists inter- pretations, M. Rodin next asked for Chopin. During the playing of noctufne he sat remote from all the other guests in a far corner of the room, and sud denly, to the surprise of everyone, he arose and walked out. His host who had noticed that he was deeply moved fol- lowed soon after, fearing that M Rodin had become suddenly i'll. Seated on d bench in the garden, weeping unre- strainedly, he soon found the missing guest.
 My dear M. Rodin, are you ill?" was the natural query.
 The sculptor could not reply and merely shook his head. until he had gained con trof of his emotions.
 Not i'll, but more profoundly affected by music than I have ever been before he replied at length. He asked to be left alone, and for an hour or so afterward he walked to and fro in the garden His emotion was so overpowering that he could not trust himself to say good-by. It was the first, but not the last time that he heard John Powell play.

Our Alabama Men in the 167th Rainbow Regiment Reception Received in the East" Says Mrs. Forbes

the northern people may have enter tained, are now dispelled and north and south alike are in .he trenches together,
 fighting for one cause, one freedom and one democracy"
 "One of the officers in the camp Mrs. Forbes said, asked me to bring the message back to Alabama to our people that in sending the boys litera- ture,-magazines, books and papers please not to send back numbers: the boys have read these, and are quite as up-to-date in the matter of reading as when they were right here at home"
 '"The behavior and life of the boys at Camp MilS,' Mrs. Forbes said, lis be- yond criticism in every respect. One evening I got on the train at the sta ton, Country Life Press, where the big Doubleday, Day x Co. book publish ing plant is with five trainloads of boys, who had just been paid off and were on their way to New York and I never saw a more orderly or more well behaved crowd of young men in all my life. I am glad to bring the mes sage back to Alabama to the interested friends and families of the boys in the One Hundred and Sixty-seventh regi- ment that their boys are being well cared for. with every attention being shown them and every comfort possible being provided. At The Point near Camp Mills, where many of New York; S most fashionable and wealthy people live, one of the leaders in society has planned to entertain the men of the One Hundred and Sixty-seventh regi- ment, giving entertainments, inviting hundreds of them at time The whole spirit of the camp, the loyalty and the good fellowship, impressed me forcibly and, as l said in the beginning, if anything could alleviate the pain ot a parents heart in giving her boys up to this cruel war, it is the fact taht they themselves are so happy over it and are so beautifully situated at the camps,
 Not an Alabama man that saw, and there are a great many Birmingham men in the Rainbow regiment" Mrs. Forbes said, uttered a dissatisfed word; they are all happy, enthusiastic and impatiently awaiting for their or ders to go Somewhere in France and fight for their country. And beyond and above all else-although I left my boy with the camp fires burning about the tents and a guard standing over us because of the strict quarantine-the men have profited by the open air life (my boy has gained 17 pounds and the others in proportion) and the work which seems to me to cover at least 15 hours day, has made them hale and hearty and has put them in the best of spirits
