TRIP THAT MAY
END IN France
ONE DAY ahead
Continued from First Page.

NonluueQ from flfht fdSc.
Notwithstanding this report, there was
la feeling that the local troops would
be gone before that time. and Il was
stated in THE EVENING JOURNAL sew
eral days ago that it was likely the sol
diers would entraln before October 9.
The Delaware regiment is the only unit
Of the Twenty-ninth Division that has
not been moved TO Camp Mcclellan.
and Il was due to that fact that many
had been looking daily for the order
to en- train. A large part Of the equipment
OF the regiment Is stored In the old
Court House, and this VIII be taken
TO New Castle tomorrow morning and
loaded on the trains.
AS the troops will not be IN Whining
ton again as a body. Mayor Lawson and
Councilman Robertson, chairman Of the
finance committee OF City Council, went
to Camp Townsend today TO confer
with Colonel Reed relative TO planning
a farewell send-off for the men before
they ontrain. The Mayors demonstra-
ton committee will supply the soldiers
with box luncheons. cigars and chewing
gum. Il IS also understood that the Red
Cross will also have something for the
soldiers as they entrain.
While II will be q disappointment
to thousands, the soldiers not re-
turning TO Wilmington before starting
for Admission. yet many hundreds Of
relatives and sends will no doubt
go to New Castle tomorrow afternoon
10 bid farewell and wish the boys
God-speed. There win be many pa
thetlc scenes as relatives -sweethear'ts
and friends say goodbye TO tho men
starting on the first leg OF their
journey, which is expected to land
them in France and al the front In a
few months.
The men themselves have been i'm
patient to make the start for Camp
Mcclellan for the past several
weeks They have been at Camp
Townsend for more than three weeks
and during that time have received
some valuable training The watch
ful waiting for orders TO move has
been q strain on every one and the
entire camp was made happy at 4
O'Clock yesterday afternoon when the
order was eventually received Com
nany d hns been at Camp Mcclellan
since August II. having gone to the
new camp to assist in getting It ready
for the other troops.
The Delaware regiments quarters
are said TO be all ready for the troops
To Is about a 40-hour Journey TO An
mston, which means that the Della
ware boys should arriYe there some
time early Saturday morning.
The men in the regiment are in ex-
cellent shape physically The three
weeks living outdoors has been OF
great benefit to them A large num-
her Of persons went to the camp to-
day when they learned the troops
would be moved tomorrow as they did
not want to run the risk Of not being
able TO say goodbye dur'ng the rust
Of entrainlng tomorrow.

From the viewpoint OF the Colorado

Fuel Administrators Garfield are a dis

says the Denver Express.
In fact. instead OF reducing prices
to the people here. in certain In
stances the government rates leave
the way open for an increase. Accord
ing TO present data. the price OF btu
mnious coal. for instance. may go
from $3.50 to $3.50.

REV. AND MRS. Van kEuREn

The Rev. aid Mrs. Floyd Van Keu-
rem have just accepted commissions
under the American Red Cross to do
civilian relief and social reconstruc-
ton work in the reclaimed villages
and among the refugees of France
and Belgium. They expect to sail
within a few weeks as soon as their
equipment can be secured. A small
preliminary group of men and women
is being sent over at this time as a
forerunner OF the many thousands of
workers the Red Cross plans to send
later. Both Mr.. and Mira. Van Keuren
have been in France before, and both
have had training which qualities
them for this special work; Mrs. Van
Keuren having taken three years of
special kindergarten and social set
tlement training in Philadelphia, and
Mr.. Van Keuren having been trained
in New York. Mr.. Van Keuren gave
up his parish in Canon City two
months ago in order to do some kind
of special war work. When this coun-
try entered the war he had put in his
application for a chapiaincy in the
army, and expected to go into that
service when he left Canon City The
government made a new ruling that
chapiains should be appointed from
the different religious organizations
on pro-rata, membership basis. As
the Episcopal church already had a
large number of chaplains in the army
appointments, from this church have
necessarily been delayed Mr. Van
Keuren was assured at Washington
that he would get his chapIaiury ap-
pointment this fall, but. on account of
