CAMP SHERMAN, CHILLICOTHE, |
Ohio oct 20 Bugles can be heard
these days all through Chillicothe's
big training camp for conscripted men
from Ohio and Western Pennsylvania
Each regiment now has at least one
tmmpetor aud the clear musical notes
rapidly are taking the place of scurry'
ing messengers and orderlies.
Those calls which affect the great.
est number are set to words 50 they
are easy for the new soldiers to re.
member
The first one is revelle or get up"
There are no alarm clocks at a mill
tary, camp; no mothers to remind
sleepy young men that breakfast is
ready; 40 telephone operators to set
a ben going; no bell hops or others
to arouse heavy-sleeping youths. The
bugle does the business.
Here are the words to reveille
81 can't get 'em up. | cant get Nem
up, can't get 'em up in the morn.
ing;
"a cant get 'em up; can't get 'em
up, ! can't get 'em up at all;
"Corp'rals worse than the privates;
"SeIgeants worse than the corpor
ais;
Lieulenants worse than the ser.
gcants,
And the capt'ns worst of all"
Mess call is as popular as reveille is
unpopular on crisp days such as the
soldiers have been having lately. The
words OF the mess call are
"Soup-y, soup-y, soup,
Without single bean;
"Porli-y, pork-y, pork,
Without streak of lean;
Coffee, coffee, coffee,
without any cream
And last comes taps-the dignihed
and sad call that sends tingling sen
sations up and down the back. 1t is
the call sounded over the graves of
all soldiers and few parodies are at
tempted by facetious rockies. In
camp it means "to bed" and lights
out The words are impressive:
Fades the light;
And afar
"Goeih day,
Cometh night;
Y and Il star
Leadeth all.
"Speedath all
20 their rest.
Love, good night.
Must thou 90
when the day
And the night
Leave me so?
Fare thee well;
Day is done;
Night is on"
There are many other calls-dozens
of them. The new conscripted soldiers
/ pick them up rapidly but it takes a
/ long time to become acquainted with
them all OFFICERS have n CALL first
/ scrGeanls have n call and there are
calls for others, which do not greatly
interest The average enlisted man.
There are calls to correspond with
many commands, both in camp and
on the field.
AT first the enlisted men take con
siderable interest in what the calls
mean ana attention is paid them, but
. gradually the "newness wears off and
when they recognize blasts that dc
not mean some action for them, they
scarcely heed more than the opening
notes.

DEMONSTRATION
OF PATRIOTISM
MAY BE HELD
HERE THURSDAY

The Chamber of Commerce has
noted that patriotic demonstrations
are being arranged throughout the
country on Thursday. April 5th. The
object, il is believed, is to afford a
means of popular expression on the
part of every American citizen with
regard to the conditions which are
before the Congress of the United
States at the present time. and it is
thought that such a demonstration
will help and encourage the Presi-
dent and Congress i'm the part which
they have to play in the defense of
the rights of mankind in this and ev-
cry civilized country i'm the world.
Such a meeting and such a demon
stration is not for the purpose of play
ing up war spirit but only to en-
phasize the feeling on the part of
every American citizen that he is
and will be loyal to the flag of his
NUuiiti. WHtH uHIuTleu III the cause
of liberty and of right
Lakeland is just as loyal as any
city in the United States of America
and it is thought expedient at least
to call the citizens together for the
purpose of taking this matter in con-
sideration and taking such action as
may be thought proper AS Presi-
dent of the Chamber of Commerce,
therefore. an organization represent
ing the business and commercial, as
well as the social interests of Lake
land. | ask that those interested in
this matter meet at the rooms of the
Chamber of Commerce tomorrow
wednesday, morning, in order to
discuss the propriety and wisdom of
such demonstration, and (if thought
proper to plan for such exercises.

Chamber OF Commerce
:: Notes ::

This town is your home. Help to
make il better town by cooperating
with its merchants and business men.
Treat your industries fairly, and they
must be fair to you.
As we go into our stores at times,
and the proprietor and clerks are
taking an invoice of the goods in
stock, we have been led to think
why not take an invoice of commun-
ity conditions; get at the physical,
mental and moral stock in trade and
go at it Systematically to build up
where needed, just as the merchant
builds up his stock?
1t makes not a difference who you
are or what you are, your home
town has done more for you than
you have done for it. You may be
rich or you may be poor, or just in
moderate circumstances, but in either
case your home town has done much
for you that you have never recog
nized or repaid. If you give it the
consideration it deserves you will get
busy right away and do your full
share towards making this bigger
and better and more prosperous town
in every way.
