Editor Journal.-If you will
allow me space in you paper |
will try to write a few lines to
the people at home.
Weare enjoying life at Camp
Beauregard. We like Louis
ana very we'll, but of course
1t is not like Arkansas with us.
We are hvaing some fine wea-
Their here bat it is mighty dry ;
has rained but little since we
arrived here.
Our squad is quarantined on
account of the measles, but
We are we'll cared for, but we
sometimes have the blues. We
are located in a little pine
grove and all we can hear is
the songs of the pine. Our
company certainly does feed
US well, but we hate to put
them to so much trouble for
they have to carry our food to
us.
The Y. NJ. C. A. men came
over yesterday to see us and
held religious srevices and we
enjoyed it very much for it
made us feel like we were at
home. The Y. NJ. c. A. is
certainly good thing. They
also furnish us with stationery
and good reading material.
Words cannot express our APP
probation of the Y. NJ. c. A.
Don't know how long we
will be quarantined but think
it will Just be for ten days
and we have been here three
days already.
No doubt some of the people
there think that our joining
the army was all uncalled for,
but in my opinion we are fight
ing for all that is right, civil
lized and humane, and against
a power which threatens the
existence of all the rights we
prize and the freedom we en-
JOY. | think we will never have
an opportunity to do so much
for our country or the advance
ment of the worlds progress,
for | believe we are fighting
a power who if that power
wins will set the whole world

SECRETARY REDFIELD
ENDORSES PLANS

Secretary of Commerce Red
field has added his endorse
ment to the Smoke Fund Plan
for providing tobacco for the
boys in the trenches. He says :
Il am sure the American
people will be glad to add to
the personal comforts of our
boys who are fighting their
battles.
ct is our fight you know
the cause of every one of us.
Let the boys have their
smokes and have them gener-
ously.
LET them feel that we are
all behind them and that we
think and care for them.
$50 shall we add at once to
their comfort and fighting
power"
Public men everywhere are
supporting the idea of tobacco
funds for the soldiers. A big
patriotic movement is sweeping
the country and we are glad
that this paper was among the
first to take up this work.
Your part is very simple You
know about our fund. You
know that the smallest contri-
button is not wasted-every
cent helps buy tobacco for the
boys in France. SO send along
your money and get your
friends to send their money.
This great work has just be
gun and we are out for rec
ord. We want substantial
'evidence of the patriotism of
our citizens.

Sixtv-Three Years Behind the Footlights

In the April American Magazine is an
account of the fine old actress, Mary Da-
Wis, who has appeared before American
audiences for IS years.
To-day, at so, she is playing one OF
her most successful parts-and playing
it on Broadway. If any other actress on
our stage has longer record of service
she is keeping the fact for her obituary
notices. Mrs. Davis has served the
stage long and faithfully; but her serv-
ice has not stopped there. She has
brought four children into the world,
taught her sons how to save and her
daughters how to cook, and helped in the
training of her six grandchildren.
"In character part in old Lady 81 ;
her play of this season, when she hobbies
onto the stage with the aid of cane,
Mrs Davis looks her four-score years.
But once in the wings she losses away
the stick. straightens up her stoop and
hops around with real agility"

Will the City of the Future Be Built in
a Straight Line?

"Roadtown," the city of the future
described in the April American Maya
zine, is the novel idea of an inventor
named Edgar Chambless, who has con-
ceived an entire city with an ideal trans
portation system shooting out in to the
country in straight line. Engineers,
city planners and efficiency experts have
marveled at its possibilities.
'While studying the transportation
problems OF New York City, trying to
figure out a subway system for freight
delivery, Mr.. Chambless evolved a hous-
ing scheme, a series of towers like smoke
stacks, joined and braced from outside,
each apartment an entire floor with air
and light on all sides, easily accessible
by last elevators, to be built of con-
crete, two hundred and twenty five stor-
les highland engineers pronounced it
possible! Suddenly, in the night, the
idea came to him to take the towers
down and lay them fiat on the ground
to build out into the country, not up into
the sky.
"This, then, is the plan for the city in
the country. The houses, whether
hundred or thousand, are all in one
line. The basement Is continuous pas
sage, with noiseless and well-ventilat-
ed system of transportation Each
house has its own stairs to the platform,
which runs the entire length.
SIN this basement are the conduits
for all the pipes and wires of Road
town. Having gas, water, and eleStricl-
ty in a straight line is one OF the great
economics of the new city
every apartment has on two sides
air and light. The two ends partition
off the adjacent houses.
"The country, with gardens and farms,
is Immediately accessible at every point.
Within a half mile on either side, there
are two acres of land for each family,
sufficient, the intensive agriculturists as
sert, for their support.
"The roof of this long line of houses
is also continuous passage"
