school lost to Marinette at Green Bay
Saturday 81 to 0. The game was played
for state championship honors.
Marinette scored five minutes after
play had started on a long forward
pass, Nelson to Peters. Nelson kicked
goal. Another score was made near
the end of the first quarter on another
forward, Nelson to Medley. Nelson
missed goal.
The second and third quarters
were interesting as both teams fought
on even terms most of the time.
The fourth quarter netted another
touchdown for Marinette when Peters
intercepted Watertown forward and
ran for a score Nelson kicked goal.
The last touchdown was made when
Watertown interfered with Marinette's
pass over the goal and the umpire al
lowed the score.
Wagner, Peters and Nelson done the
stellar work for Marinette, while Wer-
ner, Archie, Buffmeier and Kaminski
starred for Watertown.
The Green Bay chamber of COM
merce in staging the event did not
reckon with the weather. They will
come out about even for many of the
business men had purchased tickets
but were afraid to brave the zero

Camp Grant Notes

Camp Grant, ILL.,, Dec. 7.-Handling
the pick and shovel with the same
pep" and efficiency that has charac-
terized their work on the drill field
and target range, the 10000 or more
men of the Seth division have worked
for four days on the roads and
grounds of the cantonment and saved
Uncle Sam the sum of 1890 In ad-
dition, they received valuable train
ing lin digging entertainments, and
the camp is now assured of thorough
drainage in spite of the heaviest
SHOWS, or the quickest spring thaws.
Nearly five miles of roadway have
been surfaced by the men under direc-
ton of Officers of the 311th Engin-
GERS. Ten thousand feet of open
bitches were dug, and 5000 feet of
tiled ditch. Major General Barry, COM
mander Of the division, seeing that
Construction Quartermaster Major
Donald Sawyer would not have time
to complete the work of draining the
cantonment area, before the date set
for completion of construction work,
ordered the task to be done by the
men of the division. The supervision
was detailed to Colonel Clark Smith,
commander of the 311th Engineers
and division engineering officer I'm
der direction of Major M. G. Kassan
of the 311th Engineers, plans were
drawn up in consultation with Major
Jeter Junkerfield of the central de-
partment in Chicago, and the men put
to work in shifts of 5000 each
bitches were dug along the sides of
each company street, slOping the
trunk bitches along the main roads.
The earth from the bitches was used
to surface the roads which were then
spread with gravel or cinders where
needed. Formerly, the ground occu-
pied by Camp Grant drained natural
| ly into the Rock river, but the grind
| ing wheels of motor cars and heavily
loaded wagons, and the ceaseless
tramp of thousands of feet had cut up
the surface until natural drainage was
blocked. AS a result, three large bas-
ms were formed on the parade
grounds, and threatened to spread out
| over the camp. Then thousand feet OF
| saucer shaped trenches, six feet wide
| and from two to four feet deep, were
| dug, providing adequate drainage for
| the basins, and witt sufficient capa-
| city to care for the surface runoff
The five thousand feet of tile bitches
| were dug, tiled and covered in record
| time
The speed and accuracy with which
| the job was accomplished was declar-
ed creditable not only to the engin-
GERS who directed it but to the men of
the National army who worked with
such zeal and enthusiasm Especial
praise has been extended to the road
work accomplished by the men of the
365th (colOredD regiment. These men
| worked with such rapidity and good
| humor that military observers were
| frank in voicing their approval. Their
picks and shovels were busy every
| minue, and as they made the dirt fly,
they made the skies ring with the
| sound Of their songs
The men from Wisconsin and the
! men from Illinois We'd with each 9TH
er in welding the pick and shovel to
| determine which state produced the
| brawniest soldiers. Officers acting as
referees pronounced the contest a
draw"

Remember Little Kindnesses.

Cultivate q memory for kindnesses.
Too many of us are inclined to accept
small courtesies and kindnesses as a
matter Of course, and for that reason
they make so little impression upon
us that they are soon lost sight Of.
The people who seem overf1owing with

have a good opinion of their fellows,
are the ones who find it easy to forget
injuries, but who hold the kindnesses
they have received fast in memory

SEND TOBACCO KIT
TO SOJER IN FRANCE

1t takes only Is cents to send a kit
Of tobacco to some soldier in France
and receive an Acknowledgement of
the same. Send or leave quarter at
the Watertown News office and it will
be taken care of for you
Tobacco in the army is like water
at spring. 1t doesn't amount to
much when everyone has it, but there
isn't place in the world where the
old adage-"you'll never miss the wa
ter till the well runs dry'-stands
out in such ugly relief, as in a mill
tary company shy of tobacco.
You may argue that smoking is a
bad habit, and that nicotine is a dead
ly narcotic, but the fellows lover
there want and need tobacco
The question up to you is whether
you are going to send it to them or
hand them tracts dealing with a per-
nicious habit.
If man is in a trench for you and
wants a smoke, are you willing he
should have it?
American tobacco is scarce in
France. That is why the fund is being
collected. Do your bit now The price
you pay can't go wrong.
