Loafng In company street for weeks
has brought out one big fact; that ].
company has the largest bunch OF art
lists in the regiment. Artists in that
they have tried to cover every door In
the Company street with drawings, per-
haps artistic, but more perhaps, not.
All down the line, the artists have tried
their luck, and here are few OF the
signs painted: On the sergeants' door
are three stripes. and the sign Money
to Loan, in the neck!" The buglers
also stay In this tent, and "Reveille
dished out at six thirty o'clock" repre-
sents the wind-jammers. In Roach
Brooks squad. the first, there Is an
artist and his offering is Detail Squad.
Sergeants not allowed. Buck Privates,
Welcome" The artist evidently did
not like details for cutting wood, and
other fatigue, and as the sergeants are
admitted to be the best known "detil-
ers" in existence, said artist included
them in his tabooed list.
The second squad artist styled his
"bunkies" the Fighting Eight" and
nobody goes inside to disapprove the
assertion. Sam Skinner-Sunshine
Sam-calls them the Eating Eight,
but doesn't go inside to tell them so.

Masters and the sign above their

When it's raining and nothing but
the water is going on, the crowds US
ually gather in Top" Guerry's tent
and begin to talk about going home"
1t is the most talked Of topic In the
Georgia brigade. and the one we know
least about. But that does not prevent
the soldiers from talking.
: The Americas Light Infantry has the
disease in a worse stage than most of
the other companies, because Sergeant
Nance is from Arlington, and just nat
orally can't help leaning over the back
fence to gossip with the orderlies from
headquarters who are responsible for
most of the dope" Every event has
a bearing on coming home"
Even when Colonel Thomas ordered
all hair to be cut to an inch length,
those who had the blues" In the most
advanced stages said that Colonel
Thomas wanted the men to look neat
when the want-to-be-capital-city OF
Georgia was reached early in Febur-
airy.
Gen. Pershing's withdrawal has set
the boys wild with dreams Of her"
and home The first of General Perish
ign's troops have already reached the
border, and seven regiments are COM
ing to Ell Paso to be stationed. Room
rnust be made for them here, and more
than likely some will be sent to Camp
Cotton. Other military camps around
the "City of the Pass" are Camps
Pershing, Stewart, owen Bierne and
Bliss. Camp Stewart is almost desert
ed, South Carolina being the only state
represented at Stewart. But the other
camps are well filled, and the chances
are bright for most of the American
troops returning from the interior to
be sent to Camp Cotton.
The only troops at Cotton now are
two regiments of regular infantrymen,
the 99rd Michigan infantry, and the
Georgia brigade. The regulars are
packing up to leave for the Big Bend
country, where they will relieve Texas
guardsmen, who have been ordered to
San Antonio, probably for muster out.

High Hopes Swelled Ranks
Of Americas Light Infantry
In Their Dreams of Homeland

So there will be plenty ofsroom and
welcome for the boys from the interior
at Camp Cotton. Somebody will be
sent home. and Sergt Nance vows 1t Is
the Georgians.
The second regiment and the 10th
Military Division will pass In review
Saturday for General Morton, the COM
mander of the Tenth Division. The
soldiers will leave Camp Cotton in
motor trucks for Fort Bliss early Sat
urday morning, and most of the day
will be consumed In passing In re-
view" Over fifteen thousand soldiers
CT five states are represented, and 1t
falls to the Second Georgia Regiment
to lead the entire division Company
l. of Griffin, is the ranking company OF
the End Ca, and will break the trail for
the others. This review, the boys re-
gard, as the best proof that home" is
not more than forty days away. In
every instance troops were sent home
the division was reviewed. and then
disbanded.
The Second Kentucky Infantry was
the first regiment in the enthe DivTis-
ion to be sent home, and left Wednes-
day for Kentucky. This Is an indica-
ton, according to Sergeant Nance, that
they are hitting around our back
door STEP" and General Funston might
accidentally make check mark oppo-
site Second Ca" and the tricks ac-
complishment. Our regiment is now
the ranking one of the Tenth Division,
