could there be than to furnish thes'

Four principal agencies are making
life a little easier for the homeless
men, women and children Of those
parts OF France recently wrested from
the grasp Of the Kaiser. From Eng
land have come the rich Quakcrs, who
are erecting wooden houses for thou
sands. The L'Abri are supplementing
the work of the Quakers by providing
temporary shelter until the shacks are
finished. Furnishing the shaeks with
the necessary household linens and
bedding are the La Renaissance des

making the dreary interiors OF TN,

rhe Sea Girt boards between June 80
and July 25 was a matter of uncertain
". even in officers quarters, until an
nouncement came Thursday that six
companies Of United States regulars
from the 22d Infantry, stationed at
Fort jay, Governors Island, would ar
rive Friday for a months training on
the rife ranges. That encampment has
already been established in the plot
directly east of the National Guard
camp, and by the coming of these ad-
dltional forces the total enrolment of
the camp has reached the / 500 mark.
Major Marcus Stokes. l.. ). A., the
senior inspector-instructor of the
Guard encampment, is giving the stu
dent officers the bayonet combat In as
large doses as they can stand. New
Jerseys Plattsburg has been thrusting
right and left and doing the upward
jab an hour at q time. and arms that
hung limp after the first session of
this branch of instruction are begin
ming 10 take il as naturally as chopping
wood for the cook shacks.
Semaphore signalling would probably
win in walk in any popularity voting
contest. The men seem TO take this
instruction as pastime in comparison
with the other more gruelling activl-
ties. "lt's the candy with the medi-
cine" said one non-com. Even with
their slight first knowledge of the sig
mailing game, the officers and non-coms
joke with each other through the use
of the semaphore and wig-wag systems.
The morale Of the encampment is
excellent. "These are all officers or
non-commissioned officers said Major
Stokes, "and they realize New Jersey is
giving them an unusual opportunity to
/ get into action at a much earlier date
t than would otherwise be possible.
Every drill and class mas been marked
by the interest shown by every man
in the group. They're here for busi-
ness, and they're absorbing all we can
give them in this short period"

ment-famous Sea Girt has changed
What was once a vacation period for
the Guardsmen of other years has be-
come stern two weeks of gruellng
work. work that tires and wears and
work that brings a grim realization OF
the purpose behind it all. And though
Sea Girt's calendar of dates for the
season is not entirely filled with off
ciel bookings, there is little doubt that
