CAMP UPTON, l.. l., Oct 12.-They
made the little fat sergeant so uncom-
Portable on the occasion of his last
visit here, assigning him TO sleeping
quarters with n lot Of generals and
forcing him to sacrifice truth to escape
a chair at headquarters mess, that II
is a wonder he ever came back to Camp
Upton.
But he had given a promise TO Ten

siderable of promise keeper-and To-

Rain Gives Mills Men
Taste of Sailors Life
Tents Flooded, Soldiers Flee
to Y. NJ. c. A., but 1t Col
lapses on Them

CAMP MILLS, Long Island, Oct. H.
Men in drenched uniforms clustered in
their sodden tents tonight and pro-
claimed more or less tunefully that a
sailors life was the life for them. For
two hours this afternoon it rained in
torrents. All of the tents were we'll
dtched and kept fairly dry inside.
Many caught in the storm fed to the
Y. NJ. c. A. tent for shelter This lived
up to the faith reposed in it by col
lapsing on top of them. No other dam
age was done by the storm.
The troops were notified to-day that
they would shortly be expected to turn
in their long overcoats and would then
receive the short trench jackets, which
they will wear in France. Fifty men
Of the 117th Trench Mortar Battery
will leave for Sandy Hook tomorrow
for target practice.

have been preposterous for Busick 70
