Down on camp at Fair Grounds u
fighting boys are doing the customary
work hat is required in getting ready
for the general mobilization. The work
that is given them is bringing them
into shape in marvellously short time.
B. d. Lowell, OF Elkton, who was a Wis
itor in the city this week and spent
some time at the camp and watched
the boys at work. said that the way
they were showing up az soldiers was
a pleasant surprise. He had not
thought that so short a time could
bring them into such fine condition,
They march and drill with a great
deal of accuracy and precision and
the general demeanor Of the men is
soldierly all the time. Mr.. Lowell is an
old guardsman and former soldier and
his opinion of the boys is worth con
sideration
The Y. NJ. G.. A. building at the camp
grounds is being used all the time
and the men are getting a taste of the
great convenience this organization
will be when they get for away from
home
The boys OF the company took up a

fighting disposition, being a cross Of
fox hound and bull dog, and when he
comes up town with his harness on, a
soldier on each side with a lead chain,
he makes a rather warlike appearance.
The boys take great delight in the dog
and he is bound to be a great compan-
ion and friend for the whole company.
The Register is indebted to First
Sergt. Mitchell for the courtesy extend
ed in furnishing us with information
and data.
Teh pictures published this week are
from photos taken by Clarin. the pop
ular Brookings photographer, at our
suggestion and are copyrighted.
Hardly a day goes by but what some
visitor from an outside town is at the
camp calling on some one of the boys.
MANY parents come and stay a day or
two. seeing how the boys are getting
along and in many cases visiting
friends who reside here. From everv-
one we hear the highest praise for the
way the boys are being taken care Of.
This is certainly very complimentary
to the officers who are in command.
1t is seldom that one hundred and
fifty young men can be assembled in
one confined place without some dis
turbances or dissensions arising. But
at no time have we heard of anything
that is of a serious nature. Nothing
outside of little tiffs and petty Crouch
es. Every mar Of Company c Is 20 be
congratulated on the way he is handl-
ing himself and the care he is giving
to his conduct and actions. We are
certainly proud Of the boys.
