BIG WAR CAMPS
| WARMLY HEATED
Thousands of American Sol
s dfers Comfortable at Train
ing Cantonments

r No. less than one hundred training
aviation fields are now in full opera
ton fitting men for the shock of bat
tie. in ell ends of the service. Official
Information supplied to the Pennsyl-
vania committee of public safety in
dicates that not far from half of the
total number of men training are en-
> camped in the big National Army
cantonments. In these the United
States has sixteen communities
which are military cities. In popula-
ton two of them are as big as Ian
caster,
Sixteen camps, nearly as big as the
environments, but not built so DUR
ably, are housing the National Guard
divisions, Two hundred and htty
thousand men have Joined the reg
ulars since the war broke out. There
are seventeen Regular Army stations
and camps being used for the train
ing of these recruits.
Seventeen stations are engaged In
training men for the Navy, and ma
rines are being turned out in three
more. Not all the aviation fields nave
been flnished-but in a dozen of them

taught to fight in the air.
Nine camps have just rounded on
the second increment of officers Tor
the Reserve Corps. Five medical
camps are in operation, and three
camps for engineers. All of the larg-
er camps have been built in the last
six months. The biggest of them, the
National Army cantonmentS, were
built in three months at a total cost
of $15O,000, 900. Only little over
twice as much was required to build
the Panama Canal-and that took
ten years.
The largest of the cantonments are
Camp Lewis, at American Lake, near
Tacoma, Washington and camp
Funston at Fort Riley, Kan. The quo
ia for each of these camps is ABOUT
$4,000. In each camp are about 1,4O0
buildings, lighted by over 2O,OO0
electric lamps. 1t can safely be SAID
that no large army of soldiers was
ever housed so comfortably before.
There will be no freezing this winter;
Four of the cantonments situated
farthest north have steam heat The
rest have hot air systems.

Developing Sound-Spelling.
Method of Teaching French

How Professor de Lapparent de-
veloped q modern and simple method
for the rapid requirement OF French
is one of the great constructive
achievements to grow out of the war
with Germany. The necessity of know
ing French was SO apparent that the
de Lapparent method Immediately
became popular. 1t is made available
for everybody in The Soldiers Sailors
Diary and English French Dictionary,
a remarkable book of pocket size
bound in durable textile leather which
is being furnished to readers by news
papers OF America and Canada.
Two primary reasons influenced
the papers to undertake this work,
first to encourage the study of French
ms a convenience and as an aid to pro-
motion and second to encourage the
keeping of war records by individuals
so that events as they appeared to
many different participants might be
set down when still fresh in memory.
A diary, like a camera, fixes definitely
the time and place of important
events making a permanent record
on tho scene of action.
The Soldiers-Sailors Diary and
English French Dictionary Is being
distributed on a coupon plan explain
ed elsewhere in this paper. Civilians
as we'll as those in the military serv-
ice find the book valuable.

GOOD DEER HUNTING

Sam Garland, ga PETER street,

Alderman Fritz Kramme, of the
Fifth ward. A recent letter from him
tells of the experiences in King Hol-
low camp, Ferney, Clinton county,
in very entertaining way. He says
that deer are very plentiful and that
the party has bagged four deer, and
n bear. One of the deer was an eight
proged buck which ran across a Wild
erness road, frightening a lumber
mans team. The men tracked him
through the snow and shot him. Fif-
teen Harrisburg nimrods are in the,
party. which left the city last Fri

NEWPORT, R. l., Sept. 17.-Full confidence that the good understand ing between America and Japan would increase to the end of all time was Ae&- preside today by Viscount Ishii head of the Japanese mission, in his only public utterance during the tWo-day visit of the party to this city.
 At a public reception, the viscount said:
 Newport is storied in the mind of every school child in Japan as the rest ing place of Commodore Matthew Per ry Not so long ago but that living men will remember and tell it to their
 grand children, Japan lived in isola-
 tion. well content. One day there came knocking at our door and looking forth we saw strange sights indeed. A fantasic folk in awesome ships with gruesome guns held out the hand or friendship and thus came America and Commodore Perry to our shores. The sixty years just passed must constitute one full chapter in the his tory of Japan. During all that time the Pacific ocean. so illimitable then to us, has been growing more narrow daily. The east and west which stood
 without a thing in common except their common humanity. have beer I drawn closer and closer together until today we stand shoulder to shoulder as friends and allies defying the power l of evil to destroy that splendid heritage i which we are agreed to share.
 i "I am convinced that with the open 1 ing of this new charter of interna- | tiOnal history and so through the end of all time, our good understanding
 will increase. The road between our
 homes will become more and more the beaten track of neighbors.

K -GOV. FERGUSON IN COURT MAKES DENIAL

state banking laws by obtaining loans from the Temple bank in excess of it's capital and surplus; to set aside the constitution in the conduct of the state university and the removing of regents, or to deceive the house of representa- tives as to his financial condition at the time of the first investigation, when he said that he did not owe the Temple bank a cent. He declared that at that time he honestly believed he had cleared all his debts in the institution and it was only later that he learned one of his notes had not been settled
 The governor said that while the special session of the legislature called to meet August l ostensibly was to fix up the university appropriations, he called it, as a matter of fact to show he was not going to run away" from impeachment procee~:ngS.
 He asserted he was not an enemy of higher education. Describing his first attendance on a meeting of the board of regents, he said he suggested some of the faculty should be let out, be- cause they were not proper persons to be in charge of young men and women.

AUSTIN, Tex, Sept 17.-Sixteen of the 2l charges brought against him before the senate high court of i'm peachment were covered today in tes- timony given by Governor James E. Ferguson. when he took the stand in his own defense.
 His counsel, w. A. Hanger, took up the charges in order until he came to the eleventh article, which alleges that the chief executives failure to tell where he received S156, 300 in currency loans this year constitutes official mis- conduct. That was passed over for the time being.
 Most of the testimony was 2 repeti- tion of that given by the governor be- fore a house investigation committee last March and before the house com mittee of the whole in August.
 The governor said he hoped God would strike me dead if he ever ln- tended to profit from placing state funds in the Temple State bank, thirty per cent of the stock of which belonged to him
 He denied any intent to violate the
