Chief Scribe White as a young West

The offender never blinked.
"Remoremountchetts," he replied.

SOCIAL AFFAIRS
FOR PA. TROOPS
Y. M. C. A. at Camp Hancock
Fast Getting Prepared to
Care For Wants of Men

Under the direction of Camp Edu-
cational Secretary George B. Lands,
the educational activities at Camp
Hancock, Augusta, Ca, are rapidly
assuming definite form. At the pres
ent time, the association buildings
are not finished, but the 5000 men
who have arrived are being served
In a religious and educational way
with the aid of three large tents, To-
Gated at strategic places. The admin
istration and storage buildings, with
the garage, are the only ones ready
for service but it is expected that by
the time the remaining $4,000 Penn
sylvania troops arrive, everything
will be ready for a full schedule of
religious, educational and physical
work.
A Georgia battalion has been
guarding the camp, while the Motor
Truck Corps of the Regular Army
and a regiment of Engineers has
been ministered to by the secretaries
and their assistants. Some of the
der, where they were familiar with
the associations activities, and the
men sent in request as soon as they
arrived, for the services of the as
sociation. Reading matter and writ
ing materials were supplied at once
and religious services were conduct
ed among the men.
Arrange Social Service
An Army chaplain sent a formal
request to Camp Secretary Tomlin-
son for man to conduct a sing-song
and Prof. A. L. Tebbs, of Dayton,
Ohio, had a great success with the
initial effort. The new Army songs
were sung and the soldier boys en-
joyed the innovation immensely.
Prof. Tebbs expects to have the 5000
men in shape to greet the new ar
rivals with their songs and soon the
whole camp will be singing "Over
There"
One of the encouraging features of
the work at Camp Hancock is the
hearty cooperation of the ministers
of Augusta. They have been most
cordial and willinE to assist in every
way and it augurs well for the re-
ligious activities of the camp under
DR.. M. w. Lampe, student pastor at
the University of Pennsylvania.
On Sunday, the Y. M. C. A. work
ers will occupy the pulpits of Au-
gusta to present the needs of the as
sociation, with reference to work in
the Army camps as well as in the
Augusta City Association. The city
association has been over taxed al
ready and a number of important i'm
provements have been planned,
among them the addition of eighteen
shower baths.
Social affairs have been arranged
for the troops and the sixty three
students of the University of Penn
sylvania who have been in training
at the Augusta Arsenal for ordnance
department have enjoyed a number
of functions in the homes and
churches.
w. c. Timmons, one of the build
ing secretaries, and DR.. Lampe were
the chief speakers at the Rotary
Club meeting on Tuesday and both
made a deep impression with their
admirable addresses presenting the
Army work of the association.
Citizens of Augusta are co-operat-
ing admirably. On Sunday, scores of
leading citizens will place their cars
at the disposal of the soldiers for a
ride throughout the country. Under
the direction of prominent women,
dances are being given for soldiers
and officers with great success.
