70 CHANCE TO GET
ARMY SCHOOL Fur
LEWIS TERRITORY
BOARD DECLARES
LAND is TOO ROUGH, BROKEN
AND TlMBERED.
MONUMENT IS NO INDICTMENT
CoIonels Davis, Howell And White
Came to Columbia Upon Orders
From Gen. DuvalI and Secretary of
War Baker.

The chances for securing an army
machine gun school in the region OF
the MerriWether Lewis monument
went glimmering yesterday with ad-
verse comments of the inspection
board that made a visit to the pro-
posed site.
Colonels Davis, Howell and White
of the United States army, came to
Columbia yesterday morning and
were carried to Mt. Pleasant, from
which place they went to the section
of Lewis, Lawrence and Maury coun-
ties that had been proposed as a suit
able place for the school. They had
already studied typographical maps OF
the section and stated before going to
| it that it was entirely too rough and
broken for the purposes of the school
After making the inspection their
opinion was confirmed and the men
who have been advocating the loca
ton of the camp at that place lost
| heart.
The inspection board was accom-
panied from Columbia by w. W, Dyer
and c. H. Bachelor. At Mt. Pleasan,
they had breakfast and were Joined
by d. w. Shofner, E. Dan Smith
Charles K. Long and J. w. Garrett
The trip to Summertown. the Lewis
monument and HohenWald was made
in three Ford cars.
So convinced were the members 81
the board that the territory was un
suitable that they declined to make !
l.close inspection Of 1t. They stated
that the land was too rough, broker
and timbered to be adaptable for th'
purposes of rifle training school
The fact that the grave of Merriweth
er Lewis is located in that regioi
seemed to make no favorable impres
sion upon the army officers.
The party returned to Columbia
Yesterday afternoon and the arm
officers departed at 6:1o for Atlanta.
1t was only upon orders from Ger
Duvall prompted by instructions fron
Secretary of War Baker, that an in
spection of this territory was made
The inspectors seemed to be favor
able to some location in the pin
; region of Georgia or Florida.

SOLDIERS ANXIOUS

SEVERAL LEFT THIS MORNING
IN THAT FRAME OF

Among the boys who left for the
front to serve their country Saturday,
were Joe H. Dugger and Clarence

portuned Chairamn Ridley of the 10.

among the first to report. Several
weeks ago these young men called up
Chairman Ridley and told him that
they were not only willing but anxious
to serve their country and as a special
favor wanted to be in the first con

and their friends feel sure will make

Of Mt, Pleasant, who came here hop

there was no place for him and he
will have to wait until the next con

There were doubtless others in the
party equally as anxious to go at thu
earliest possible moment.
