LESSON NO. V. FIRST DAYS IN CAMP.

(Preceding Lessons: 1. Your Post of
 Honor; 2. Making Good in the
 Army; 3. Nine Soldierly Qualities;
 4. Getting Ready for Campo
 When the time comes for you to enter the army, you will be instructed to report at some convenient place in your own neighborhood. The exact instructions will be given later. As quickly thereafter, as proper arrange ments can be made, you and the other men who are assigned to report to the same officer will be transported to the framing camp Cor cantonment, as 1t is sometimes called).
 There will oe nearly forty thousand men in each cantonment. The task of preparing for your arrival is enor- nous. Each cantonment will require 25,000,0OO feet of lumber, 7,500 doors 37,00O window sashes, 4,665 casks of Portland cement, and $500 yards of broken stone. The water supply of cantonment will be 2.50O,O00 gallons a day. It will have it's own sewerage system, fire department, bakeries ice plants and hospitals. It will even re- quire a gigantic steam heating plant Sixteen cities, each with a population of 10000, well cared for-that is the task.
 In spite of the best efforts, it is pos sible that some of the details may re- main unfinished at the beginning of your camp life. There will be cer- tain amount of hustle and apparent confusion on the surface. Bear in mind that underneath it all lies a well thought out plan. Tn working out this plan everything possible has been done for the comfort and convenience of individual soldiers. Don't grumble If you run into some temporary delays or inconveniences at the beginning. One of the tests of a good soldier is his cheerful willingness to take things
 You are naturally interested in forming some idea of the camp life of a soldier. The description which fol- lows will help you in forming this idea. However, there will be many changes as you go along in your train- ing.
 As the men in the National Army must get ready in record-breaking time their training will be more stren- uous than that of soldiers in peace. You will find there is plenty of hard work ahead of you. The average en- ergetic young American will be glad of 1t.
 The soldier arises for the day usual
New Britain herald., 1917-08-17

likely to be varied and to include addi- tional setting-up exercises and other
 drills, target practice, bayonet exer-
 c1ses, and later more advanced drill- ing. About five o'clock comes the
 evening parade and retreat, when
 the flag is lowered or furled for the
 night. The band plays The Sta~
 Spangled Banner, while all officers
 and soldiers stand at attention. The
 ceremony is designed to deepen each
 mans respect and love for the flag
 which he serves; it is always impress
 sive. After the flag is lowered, 1t Is
 carefully folded and escorted by the guard to headquarters, where 1t is kept until the next morning, when it is again raised.
 Supper comes between five and six o'clock, and is usually followed by period of rest. In the training camps there will be many opportunities for a variety of healthful amusements- for sports, music, the theater and so on, as later described Taps are sounded by ten o'clock. This is the signal to put out all lights, retire andt keep quiet. Tt closes the day for the soldier and sends him to his blankets a tired and sleepy man." ....-
 This is only a sample of a day in camp. On some days your company will go off on hikes. After time there may be longer marches, when you will carry your shelter tents with i, you and you will make your ow1a camp. each evening. These are days that Ql be especially Interesting. You will lea rn the soldiers art of adapting yourself to new situations and making yourself comfortable.
 Your officers will ask you to do noth-, ing that they have not many times done themselves. They will ask noth- ing of you which any normal. healthy man cannot do. After a, month or tweA of this training you will find that you have begun to take on some of the skill and the self-reliance of a real soldier.
