soldiers keep the best spirits OF any
men IN action, but walt until they
see the l3l men OF company b lined
up. We have several professional
comedians" in our yelling midst,
and they are geniuses when it comes
to disturbing the ozone with vol
luminous voice. I've never seen a
happier bunch OF fellows in my
| life, and the beauty Is that this
happiness seems to improve day by
| day.
After it rains few hours the
J water runs through the streets like
small rivers, and its the color OF
the morning after taste, but fol
all OF this st. Maries is a bone DIR,
little town, I've only seen one case
or drunkenness since we've been
here, and thhat was a half breed
indian who smelling the "Frenchi-
ness" OF widely advertised hair
tonic, imbibed too freely thereof
There are some bright moments
in camp and the brightest | can
recall in our sojourn here is that
our Shorty, Charles Maxwell
is acting mess sergeant, and take
1t from US folks, he sure does fill
the job. How doc ! know? Cause
we've been having the finest cats
OF any company in the regiment.
With those camp famous hot
cakes" which Shorty makes us, and
the Improvement and variety he
putting into the daily bill OF fare
we sure have just right to feel
proud OF him. Then to further his
fame, on last Sundays fishing trip
to Chautauqua lakes, he managed |
TO snare from its liquid home the
largest fish, a bass weighing editor
Ial CENSOR pounds.

Little Tales Of The Camp
By Burt L. Berry, Co. B. Second Idaho

Camp Is still In st. Maries, buI
on or about the 18th OF July we are
TO mobilize at American Lake, fifteen
miles from Tacoma with some Co.
900 regulars and guardsmen from
Montana, Washington, Oregon and
Wyoming, the northwestern depart
ment, where we go into training for
the summer. So far our winter
camp hasn't been established, or at
least II hasn't been made known to
Us.
At first it was understood we
were to receive two weeks fur
Tough before mastering, but even
that last forlorn hope has disap-
peared and in its stead we see the
streets OF merry Parce loom up be-
fore US.
Here is the latest dope as we pri-
Yates hear it. That we will be at
American Lake for three months In
order that we may receive more
training among large bodies of
troops, and that adequate means of
transportation can be arranged; for
moving several thousand men in
mass is no small task 1t seems
likely that the second Idaho will
be the only national guard regi-
ment from the northwest to 60 with
the first division, though the regu-
lars stationed at Spokane will help
compose Americas First Arm"
Talk has 1t now that a 3rd Idaho
will be organized as soon rs the
draft is completed; 1t Is likely that
they will remain here for some
time. Talk about time They say
1t will be six months from the time
We arrive in France before we see |
the line. But when we do-Fare-
well ye Dutch!
