Fairmont, Oct. 27-Having had the
pleasure of a short visit to Camp

considered hardship. They all look
splendid in the uniform, and it looks
very comfortable.
The camp site is 4 miles wide and
II miles long, so naturally they don't
know 1T all; but we were shown many
headquarters, drill grounds, motor
trucks, ambulances and saw one large
cavalry company returning from drill.
The motorcycle messenger was one
of the sights to me. He has a spec
ial uniform and his machine has the
side car, both parts with big red
cross showing, and how he can fly
over the roads!
Every kind of work seemed to be
going on, especially road building and
barracks. We were told that 5000
men were laboring at top speed to
complete the camp

Flora Macdonald Girls Are Doing
Their Bit.

Their Bit.
Greensboro Daily News.
And the Flora Macdonald girls are
doing more than their bit to keep the
"new fires of liberty blazing at home
and abroad; they have gone into the
highways to sell Liberty bonds; into
the fields to gather the fleecy staple;
they are knitting for the sailors and
soldiers and by their enthusiasm and
patriotism are pointing the way to
true Americanism. Verify, Flora Mac
donald has a right to lift her head
proudly Gin the section where the
fires of liberty were kept burning by
the Cape Fear resistance to the stamp
act; by the Liberty Point declaration
of Independence; by the battle of
MoQre's Creek and by Polly Slocum' s

North Carolina is proud of her schools
for young women, and not the least
of these is Flora Macdonald.
