Col. Merrill Says Inmedi-

Thus Ended

A dispatch from Montgomery. Ala,
late Tuesday afternoon contained the
information that the First Ohio Field
Artillery stationed at Columbus had
been ordered to Camp Sheridan and
that orders had also been sent to the
two engineers companies at Fort Sher-
idan and at Chillicothe to report for
immediate duty. Colonel Dana T. Mer-
rill, chief of staff of the Ohio division,
is said to have remarked: This will
end the immediate troop movement"
If this is the case. Z battery of this
city is due to remain here for some
time yet and not start for training
camp this week as was the hopeful ex-
peCtation, both of the boys and off,
GERS.
The battery took the federal oath
the middle of July. Two months have
elapsed and daily order to entrain has
not yet been received. The majority
of the boys are anxious for a change
of scenery but are evidently doomed
to disappointment at least for while.

ONE CENT WILL NOT
- SEND NEWSPAPERS TO
SOLDIERS IN FRANCE

According to a ruling of Postma ster
d. H. MacAdam, newspapers cannot
be sent to the soldiers with the eX-
peditionary forces in France by simply
attaching a 1-cent stamp, as is the
case with magazines which carry an
authorized notice to this effect on
their front pages. -,
Newspapers must be wrapped and
addressed in the same order as other
mail for the expeditionary forces he
says.
In the postal order authorizing the
sending of the magazines to the SOL
diers without address or wrapping,
newspapers are not mentioned. The
reason for this he thinks is because
newspapers can be- mailed for one
cent any way, and because it would
be impossible to send them in good
conditfsa without being wrapped
