THE FIVE PER CENT. ARRIVES
First Increment of South Carolina
Men at Camp Jackson.

Columbia, September 6.-South
Carolina's full first increment of 5 per
cent of her selected men had report
ed at camp Jackson by early this
morning. Only about 250 of North
Carolinas full first increment had ar
rived at noon today and about fifty
five from Florida. All of North Caro-
lina's first increment is expected by
tonight, but Florida's will come one
fifth of the first increment each day
up to and including Sunday.
The last counties of North Caro-
lima to report this morning were the
following:
Perquimans, men assigned to the
323d infantry; Pasquotank, I men,
assigned to the 310th machine gun
battalion, and Chowan, men as
signed to the 321st infantry.
The newly arrived soldiers were to-
day given a thorough medical exam
ination, inoculated against typhoid
and para-typhoid and "finger-print-
ed." Not only were their finger
prints included on their enlistment
papers, but every scar or small
blemish was carefully described.
Drill Later.
Brig. Gen. F. H. Barth, division
commander, who has been at the
mastering office almost continuously
since the men began arriving, said
this morning that the new soldiers
would probably be somewhat in
disposed for two or three days on
account of incubation, and that the
drilling instructions would not start
until they had entirely overcome the
effects of the incubation.
Full uniforms have not arrived but
a large supply of leggings, hats, hat
cords and shoes are on hand.
Five hundred and forty-nine non
commissioned officers from Fort Ogle-
thorpe, Ca and Augusta, Ca, arrived
at Camp Jackson this afternoon. They
are to be distributed amoung the or
ganizations of this division to assist
in drilling the new men.
Will Be Recruited.
Brig. Gen. Barth announced this
morning that the Thirtieth division of
National Guardsmen, now at Camp
Sewer, Greenville, would be recruited
to a maximum strength from the
selected men at Camp Jackson. The
Thirtieth division, National Guards
men, are from the same States as
the selected men at this camp.
The men spent last night at the
camp. Blankets were given them
and messes have been started in all
regiments. In almost every case the
new made soldiers are cheerful,
although, naturally, some of them
had rather be at home.
Uncle Sam called and l was ready
to go, am thankful to say one of
the men remarked touay, and every
man within hearing endorsed his
stand.
