COLD NIGHTS No
LONGER BOTHER
BOYS IN CAM P
E Battery Now Lodged In
Tents With Floors, Side
walls And Stoves
(By WALTER H. HUNTSBERRY,
Correspondent for The Eanner.)

Camp Sheridan, Ala, Nov. 8, 1917.
If any one is hunting job he had
better come to Camp Sheridan, for
there is plenty of work down here. We
have been pretty busy this week set
ting up our stoves and raising the
top OF the tents. Every tent has
good wood fire iE it every night SO
there is no reason for our being cold
now.
The tops of our tents have been
raised so that our side walls are a
little more than five feet high. This
improvement makes more room in our
tents and you can walk along the
sides without interfering with the
roof One advantage OF raising the
tents is, you can stand .on your cot
in the mornings to dress.
One old saying 'Furl the tents"
which we heard every morning, has
left us since we raised the tops. We
will not have to furl them any more
| am sure anyone back home would
enjoy being in one OF our tents, be-
cause they are so convenient and cozy
When you approach a tent the first
thing your eyes fall upon are the
pretty robes, pillows and blankets,
which the men received from home
1t makes camp life more enjoyable
to have something around that comes
from home.
This being Saturday afternoon there
is no drill. Several of the men have
gone to town and the rest are busy
making lockers and washing clothes.
The majority have made their own
lockers.
We had a general inspection this
morning of our issued clothing. We
were ordered to put our cots out into
the street with all our clothing on
them. 1t was a sight to see all the
cots in a straight line and all the
clothing laid on them in a uniform
manner. They would not pass unless
the clothing was properly placed.
We also had an inspection of our
finger nails, 1t. Headington was we'll
pleased with the condition in which
he found the mems finger nails.
Our new stables are finished and
ready for use. Stables are being start.
ed for the first battalion.
The regimental band stand has been
moved closer to our camp: it is In the

1882 Ballots Cast Here By
Noon, Including
Absent
EXPECT RETURNS TO
BE COMPLETE EARLY
Arrangements Made For Re-
ceiying Same AT Tele-

Indications at noon pointed to the
TACT that there is a record-breaking
vote out in Mt. Vernon today to make
selection of city and township Off
GERS and to express preference on the
wet and dry and woman's suffrage is
sues.
A round OF the eight voting pre-
cincts in the city showed that there
had been q total of / ,266 votes cast by
noon while, in addition there are PIG
ballots of absent voters, bringing the
total vote at this time up to the tre-
mendously large, for city election,
figures of 1882.
The four-cornered mayoralty fight
served to bring to a red-hot finish what
at times appeared to be a slow, un-
interesting campaign and, while quiet
prevailed at all of the polls, there
est everywhere.
Five tickets were handed the voter
Tuesday. These were the city and
township tickets, the board of educa-
tion ticket and the woman's suffrage
and prohibition ballots.
Election officials expect that the re-
suit of the city ballot will be known
by 10 o'clock tonight, if not earlier
1t is also the expectation that the
county will have reported it's vote on
the constitutional suffrage
and prohibition-in the earlier hours
of the morning.
Arrangements have been made to
receive and compile the returns at
the office of the Mt. Vernon Telephone
Co. which has been made headquar-
