coLoRED SOLDIERS
TO CAMP FUNSTON

Inspired by the Colored mans pro-
verbal fondness for fried chicken Ea-
ton people provided a big chicken din
ner for the three Negroes who left
here Saturday for Camp Funston.
The dinner was cooked In real
Southern style by Mrs. Fred Jones,
who runs boarding house on the
east side and who has countrywide
reputation among the Colored people
as cook.
After the dinner was over the three
Colored soldiers were taken In auto
mobiles to witness the Eaton-Long-
mont football game. Then they were
taken to the draft board headquarters
and later were escorted to the Union
Pacific train where they boarded the
5: Is train for Camp Funston.
The three men who compose north
Yields Colored contingent in the first
draft army are Samuel Threadgill of
Galeton and Alva C. Thomas and
Wayne Tichner of Eaton. They ex-
pressed keen appreciation for the
royal farewell they received at the
hands of the people of Eaton.

Sirs-We wish to extend to the

HOW DEEP 1T cuTs!i

While the War Department at
Washington, SO vigorously, and so
deaf to the hopes and aspirations,
and so unmindful of the service rem
dered by the race, is pushing the ar
rangements for segregating Colored
soldiers at army cantonments, we
hope the epauletted officers in charge
of bureaus in the department will
hesitate long enough to read Henri
Barbusse's tribute to the black sol
diers of Africa now in the trenches
over in France.
Barbusse, Frenchman and literary
man, and himself soldier in the
trenches, has written a book, lie
Feu," in which appears the following
"These Colored troops and the Is
centimeter cannon. are our chief
trumps. We look on them with ad-
miration; their laughing faces and
needless courage deepen the sense of
fear in US. They initiate the Germans,
calling out Kamrad, Kam'rad,' and
then Non, jamais Kam'rad,' and they
then lunge forward with bayonet that
ends the appeal to brotherhood and
mercy! They only live fo- the word
command, Forward, Forward Those
are real soldiers. We are just men,
ordinary men"
And perhaps these Colored soldiers
whom the War Department, under
Secretary Bakers administration, is
feverishly laboring to segregate off in
some corner of cantonment-just as
they would contagion afflicted. when
they have reached the trenches OF
Europe will be looked upon with ad-
and perhaps they will be
referred to also as the real soldiers"
Segregation! Segregation! How deep
that word cuts into the very soul of
the man who is offering his services
his blood-his very precious life to
his country!-Cleveland Advocate.

The boys are all cheerful and happy
in spite of the many loved ones that
were left behind. They are being
cheered all along the route by patri-
otic Americans. who wish them all
Godspeed 1t is an enjoyable trip, in

and they will see them again before
they go to the front. So cheer up,
mothers, fathers, sweethearts and
friends, the boys will be home again.

Mr.. Bell Of the Y NJ c. A. is with

some Testaments around and the boys
are now busy reading them. They are
beginning to yawn. George Ruther-

porter to make down; 1t is quiet

dreaming of you. 1t is now Sunday
morning; the boys are all up and as
cheerful as ever after good nights
rest. 1t became chilly in the morning
and A. Harris, who occupies berth
with s. Simson, asked Sam to let him
have some more cover. Mr.. Simpson,
who never did wake up, told Harris
that If he did not leave him alone he
would knock him in the head with a
brick Harris, who never got the
cover he asked for, said he was afraid
to bother him any more for fear he
might have brick in the bed. The
boys are very proud of the send-of1

They are lined up by twos; the
