HURRY ALONG WITH THE
TRAINING.

The news that it may be two
months after September 1st, before
the American boys may be con-
scripted into the cantonment camps
and the training may be started, is
welcome news to those fellows that
can stay at home and forget the
possibilities of the future while to
some others it merely appeals as a
prolonging of the suspense and there
you are. Personally it looks to us
that it's a job the sooner we get into
it the sooner it will be over and that
the quicker the United States may
get it's forces into the battle array
on the western front and its fleets
into the ranks with those of her al
lies and inficting the damage that
may be expected-that just that
much sooner will we see the dawn
of the day of peace.-Rocky Mount
