the boys are in good spirits and every
one happy and digging, They fully
realize that they have a very serious
task ahead and they must give an &C
count OF themselves to upper Wiscon-
sin. 1t will not pay for a Stacker to
get into this company.
Nevertheless, let me add word
that the National army not only needs
the support of the government but
also the support of the people from
among whom the soldiers were and
are being taken. l notice that the
boys after being here few days be-
come imhued with that spirit of "get-
ting there and woe to any disloyal
person when they get back home.
Personally, wish to say that there
has been and there still is evidence in
Villas county, the same as in others,
persons who still cling TO difference
of opinion regarding our country's
stand in this worlds war. We are
lighting just war, to uphold Ameri-
cas- rights that have always been held
sacred to US by our forefathers. l

tant. We were given a little lunch
and then hit our hunks.
The next day we again reported to
headquarters and had to give a de-
tailed account of our lives historically
what we could do, etc. The greatest
thing that / found out here was the
fact that if there is anything You can
not do, they make you do it--and you
will be surprised at Yourself that you
are able to do it.

OCCUPY very little space. Regarding

tainly good. This is what we had for
supper tonight: Roast beef and gravy,
potatoes, wheat bread, corn bread.
butter, rice, apple sauce, coffee with
milk and sugar. Now what do you
say to that? eat twice. as mach as
| used TO. This Appetite is due to
regular hours, calisthenics before
breakfast and drill during the day.
We have very fine officers in our
company. They explain everything
and help US "boneheadsn along SO as
not to discourage us.
The word "DISCIPLINE'' is the one
word that must be thoroughly recog-
nized and respected. My tip to those
who will come here this month is to
obey regardless of how disagreeable
the task is. 1t may be the making of
some. Our captain said that the ordi-
nary private in any company has the
opportunity for promotion the same
as any man from West Point. There
will be no favorites played in this
camp and there is no sign of it in
our company.
Pemberton was assigned as the
cooks helper with instructions to
learn all he could about cooking for
the men and the probabilities are that
he will be assigned as chief cook for
the company, am not certain as
vet about this.
At present there are only fourteen
men in our company-two from Villas
and the balance from neighboring
counties. Now let me tell you some
thing that will make you feel proud
of Upper Wisconsin. All the other
men in our company are boys be-
tween 20 and % years and they GER
tainly are men who have been born
and raised in our portion of the state.
They are tall, broad shouldered, hard.
experienced with firearms and have
roughed it in the woods. | have
asked several of them if they are
anxious to 60. "Why of course we
are" they always answer. | will
guarantee that when the ''World's
Most Exalted Organizer of the Most
Oppressive Military System" sees
these boys, together with several mil
lion more just like them coming he
will realize it is the day of doom and
his dream of world dominance will be
shattered. you can bet on that. All

GEORGIA NEEDS UP-TO-DATE
SYSTEM OF VITAL STATISTICS

Atlanta, Ga, June 7.-Advocates OF
a thorough and up-to-date system Of
vital statistics for Georgia will renew
their efforts in the forthcoming SEES
sion OF the legislature to secure an
appropriation to put in operation the
system of obtaining vital statistics
that was established by the legisla-
ture in 1914 but which has never
amounted to anything because no
money was provided for its operation.
Georgia stands today in the rather
unenviable light of not knowing how
many people die in the state or what
they die OF, which means that the
state is totally ignorant of the very
fundamental information without
which no intelligent and constructive
public health campaign can be under
taken
1t was suggested by w. ]. Harris,
chairman of the Federal Trade Com
mission, when he was director of the
United States census, that the legis-
lature, in passing the vital statistics
law, should make the justices of the
peace, city clerks and notary publics
vital statistics registrars, and pro-
vide compensation for. their service
on the same basis allowed in other
states.
This plan will be proposed in the
legislature as offering the most avail
able and practical means of setting
in motion the machinery needed to
secure complete and accurate rec
ord of deaths and their cause.
