CAMP DOUGLAS NOTES.

Ray Groenier writes from Camp
Douglas that he expected to leave with
his regiment yesterday. The First
regiment left Monday, the Fourth
Tuesday, the Fifth Wednesday. the
Sixth Thursday and the hospital corps
Friday.
The boys are running on what they
call "Texas schedule" This requires
one hours steady hike" each morn
ing and fifteen miles on Saturday.
French bayonet exercises take place
each day. 'This is sure some man de-
veloping exercise" says Ray.
When the boys reach the south the
company will be increased to Euro
pean size or $50 men instead of $50 as
at present. Each company will be di-
vided into platoons as follows:
Two platoOns Of hand bombers.
Two platOOns of rif1emen.
Two platoons of rifle grenadiers.
One platoon Of machine guns.
One platoon Of moppers up.
The heavy artillery is placed seven
or eight miles back, and kept in com
municatiOn with the front by tele-
phone. Each soldier is expected to be
a good bayOnet man, as there is no
such thing as retreat.
The boys expect to train for several
months, followed by two months or so
in France

GrOenier."

The Huntington postoffice has dis.

claim loss or damage of property from
the parcel post service, according to
the Huntington Advertiser which ought
to know inasmuch as its editor Is also

the tale as follows:
Eggs is eggs-but still they are fra.
gile and as big find as a Klondike.
So when six dozen Of these NINA.

the parcel post system from Kentucky
to Huntington, and then have not one
OF them missing or broken, when
reaching their destination, the service
has a record.
That is what happened Thursday,
according to Postmaster ]. n. Long.
He declares Blk dozens Of eggs came
through the parcel post, enclosed In a
chip basket, and without straw or 9th.

There wasn't a one missing.
Neither were any Of the eggs broken
or cracked.
They were delivered on Eighth ave.
nue. Thursday morning in the same
condition they were given to. Uncle
Sam.
How the eggs got into the mails
without being thoroughly packed, is a
puzzle, as the regulations are that they
must be well protected.
