ON NEXT TUESDAY
Young Men Who Were i'm Audubon
A MONTH Ago To Enter Train
ing Camp at Once

Orders were received Tuesday
from Washington by Captain Bellin-
ger, commanding Hospital Unit X,
instructing him to mobilize the unit
at Council Bluffs Immediately and
proceed to Fort Porter, near Buffalo,
n. Y, for equipment.
Major Donald Macrae, in attend
ance at a surgeons school at Phila-
delphia, received orders from the war
department to return to Council
Bluffs at once and assume command
of his unit, commenced activities yes
terday in order to arrive here Thurs
day.
The unit will entrain as soon as
practicable after Major Macrae's ar
rival. This will be Saturday or Sun
day, according to Captain Bellinger,
although it may be possible for them
to leave Friday.
Everything will be placed in
readiness for immediate departure
upon Major Macrae's arrival.
Nothing in the lengthy telegram
received by Captain Bellinger would
indicate the length of time which the
unit may expect to remain at Fort
Porter. Inasmuch as it stated "for
equipment and nothing was said
about instruction, it is generally
thought that they will remain near
Buffalo for only short period.
No orders in regard to the nurses
were received with last nights tela-
gram. They have separate orders to
proceed to Ellis Island, n. Y. Miss
Swingle, head nurse. is in receipt OF

lected Kentucky as the location of a
most interesting narrative, devoid OF
crime or villiany and confined to
the reflection of life in small town.
Three old cronies. cObbler. the
printer and a retired judge take up
on themselves the responsibility of
educating an orphaned boy and see
ing to it that he accomplishes his
purposes in life. This boy, by the
exercise of his common sense, plus
a little good detective work. saves
the villagers from the financial dis

her report.
Miss Graham then took charge OF
the meeting. her subject being:

AUDUBON BOY S. )
MOTOR TO CAMP DODGE

Monday morning dawned bright
and balmy and the Boy Scouts in
great glee were on the ground at the
corner of the Methodist church to
make the start on the coveted trip
to Camp Dodge.
There were some thirty of them
and with the kind fellows who fur
nished the cars, it was splendid
party of about forty. Mr.. Chris.
Kleaver and his wife piloted an auto
load as did also Sheriff Wilson, Ed.
F.. Johnson, John Renftle, Evans
Marquesen, Dan Niklason and Rev.
Proctor, who was accompanied by
Mrs. Proctor.
The trip to the Camp was without
special mishap excepting that Mr..
Renftle's Ford refused to perform
its part, it was towed into Panora
and placed on the operating table
there.
SIR. Renftle's load was soon par
celled out to the other autos and
he Joined the Niklason car and
proceeded on to Camp Dodge. OF
course he stopped on the return trip
at Panora where he waited for his
old friends to complete the recovery
and he arrived at home safe and
sound finally.
Well! Camp Dodge is worth GO
ing far to see, indeed it cannot be
seen in day, however, the Audubon
troop of Boy Scouts got to see some
of the A ,dubon soldier boys and al
so the magnificent Capital building
in Des Moines and the wonders of
the Iowa State Historical Building.
Perhaps the rarest privilege of the
day was the march of the scouts
in order to the line of trenches con-
Quoted by soldier by request of the
Scout Master. These trenches are
certainly ingeniously made and of
course they cannot be described they
could not be photographed and if
one wishes to know what they are
like, the best way to find out is 10
go and see them. This much is
plain. We wouldn't care to live in
them in time of peace but we can
easily imagine the value and COM
fort in them in war time.
The account of blow-outs punctures
etc, is not interesting, neither are
the pleasane memories of all OF
them, some had more than their
share. But the Audubon Boy Scouts
will not soon forget the day when
they visited Camp Dodge, and the
friends who so kindly furnished
them transportation certainly have
their thanks.

Then too, this is an ambulance ben

their quarters to help wounded men
at the front Another ambulance
will be mighty fine Gmas present

But SIS is a lot to pay for film"
Eyes, but it don't seem so bad
when you know that this picture be-
longs to the government and the
money paid for the film goes right
back to the allies war fund which We
must help if we win the war"
How much are the tickets?"

CONSERVING WAR NECESSITIES

To provide against incendiary fires
in warehouses. stock yards. etc, the

granaries. warehouses and food de-
pots. The opinion was expressed
that guards must be augmented at
every point where food is stored In
appreciable quantity. This decision
has followed the recent significant
fires In Kansas City, Brooklyn, etc
