1.-THE study Of etymology," says the
Philadelphia Record, causes no end
Of trouble among that class of school
children whose knowledge of English
IS limited to words which figure in the
ordinary street conversation, and
many curious results nave followed.
The custom usually observed by the
teachers is to require such definition
OF the word, then its derivation, and
finally a sentence in which the word
IS properly used. The word "ligament"
fell to the lot OF a rather diffident boy
recently. He defined it properly as "a
band" but followed up the correct
derivation with this remarkable SEN
lence: Il was wakened up Iast night
by hearing a brass ligament going
down the street.

LeDuc Boys In Illinois Camp.

The following letter from John
and Harold Leduc to their father
will be Of interest to their friends
Camp Grant, Rockford. H.,
September l3, 1917.
Dear Dad: Just a whisper from
the fields of Illinois, where we are
now encamped, just five miles out
of Rockford. This camp is known
as Camp Grant, and is situated on
Rock river, in the midst of corn
stalks and plowed ground. The
camp cover about 36 miles and is
one Of the largest camps in the
country, and will house about fifty
thousand soldiers.
You will no doubt be very much
surprised to hear of our location at
this point. Our names were SUBJ
mitted at Ft. Douglas. and we were
two Of a large number that were
appointed to be transferred from
the regular army to the national
army.
Those here consist Of the drafted
men from Chicago, Illinois, and
Wisconsin. In fact the whole of
the 343d regiment, of which we
are members, acting as deputy SER
geants, is made up solely of drafted
men from Chicago.
Harold and / were sent here to
be appointed deputy sergeants, to
drill the men into shape, SO that we
can hit the trenches Of France at
the earliest possible moment Our
captain recently told US that there
would be about 1000 commissioned
officers made in a month or two,
and Harold and | stand a very good
chance to be commissioned as Sec
ond lieutenants.
Trusting that we may hear from
you soon, we remain
Your loving sons
John and Harold.

experience, but on the contrary. it
is the product of imperceptible ac-

"Precept upon precept, precept

improved upon it.
Profoundly impressed as l am

forming good character in our peo-
