The CONSUMPTION of property
sounds good to some people who have
none. Perhaps had they been more
thrifty and accumulated a little for
la rainy day they would not be so
eager to unduly tax frugality and
thrift. 1t is all right to make those
having the goods pay the toll, but
1t is hardly right to take all the
goods for the charges. Besides, there
will be taxes to collect later on, and
If property is conscripted by the
wholesale. who will pay them? Ger
tainly not the fellows who have no
property.

me as the one thing that should b.

came over here. and he. began to
talk about writing his play. told
him how felt about II. We search
ed for a character-a woman char
acter-that would display the kind
of courage that rises to unknown
heights from the depths OF what the
world would call complete disaster.
Honestly, Paula. do not know how
much OF that play is mine and how
much is Toms, and perhaps after
you have read II you won't want to
play the part.

evolved a new woman. or, rather.

Frankel could not act other than
she did under the circumstances.

it in England and afterward in

Camp Cody, New Mexico
October 10. 1917

October 10, 1917.
Dear Friend:
1t is night here at camp
Wednesday night so very
much unlike the other few nights
we've spent here except that it
is the regular time for a stunt"
program over at the Y. M. C. A.,
about one hundred yards away.
The band has played a few num-
bers, a few readings have been
given, and just now a good solo
voice with band accompaniment
is singing a song most popular
here in camp, Goodbye Broad
way, Hello France!" With our
ssY" Hut too small for the de-
mand made on it, a platform has
been erected just outside with
rows of bleacher seats facing it.
Here the band gives its evening
concerts, here, on a big screen,
are occasionally shown free mo-
vies, here occurs church ser
vices. Something doing over
there every night and big
swarm Of soldiers is always at
tracted.
"A few hundred yards away a
night shift Of the camp con-
struction gang is busy with
hammers and saws, making
floors and frames for boarding
up the tents in the camp. There
is no let-up, night and day and
Sundays in the construction
work Of the camp which is now
in the finishing stages. Today
the boys were putting up the
siding frames Of their tents. BY
the way, q crew Of men is work
ing gradually toward our regi-
ment, installing electric lights
in officers tents and it is ex-
pected will extend the wiring to
the tents Of the men. | wish
you might see this camp with
its illumination tonight. "A string
of large bright lights practical

are well lighted and with the

Camp Life At Cody

too dwarfed or too confused to
properly visualize for you the
arrangement Of this camp. You
can get good idea of it how
ever from the panoramic pic
lures so many Of the boys have
been sending home. You may
have noticed that civilian com
mercial photographer has taken
this view and it may interest
you to know that regulations
forbid the use Of kodaks by sol
diers within the camp.
Camp Cody hinges directly on
the city Of Deming and extends
northerly, in it's furtherest lin
it's, to a distance of three miles.
We are practically at this north
ern edge with the camp of the
First Minnesota between us and
the immense corral of the re-
mount depot which is on the
boundary line. To many of us
who were first convinced that
we came in a westerly instead
