CAMP MACARTHUR NEWS

Dee. 4, 1917.-The Waterloo, Wis,
Democrat.-The men at Camp MacAr-
thus know now what the old soldiers
Of the civil war meant when they
wrote in their diaries, Nothing going
on except digging ourselves out of the
mud" 1t was o a very long rain,
either, but quite a lot of water fell.
The camp is so level that the water
did not drain off, and the result was
anything that has happened here for
some time. This is a gumbO soil with
the accent on the gum" One Of the
men quoted the old saying, Texas
says You stick to me when il Is dry
and l will stick to you when it is
vet" That is what it did. For three
days last week, as a result Of the rain
on Wednesday morning drills We're
practically suspended, except for the
hikes. The fellows with the number
tens expended a good many foot
pounds of energy in just getting from
their tents to the mess shackS. Did
they care? Not at all. They got a
GOOD rest out of it and were as hap.
Ply as the hired man is when it rains
any day except Sunday.
Thanksgiving in the army IS now
one of the past experiences for the
men. 1t was certainly a good Thanks
living so far as the dinner was con
ccrned. Everybody had turkey and
all that goes with it. Almost every
body had a box of cake from homo.
BY the way, people who send boxes to
the soldiers should remember that
everybody else is doing the
thing. Many of the boxes came
crushed beyond all recogni-
tiOn. In packing a box for shipment
The Brookings register. [volume] (Brookings, Brookings County, S.D.) 1903-1971, 1917-12-20

care should be taken to reinforce it
with heavy card board, and to make
1t as small as possible. Large boxes
get most Of the jamming, and probab-
ly some are lost. Certainly the camp
mail detail was busy for a few days
before Thanksgiving. Those who ex-
pect to send presents to their soldier
boys for Christmas can in many in
stances send them on now and mark
them for opening December %. This
will avoid delay and over crowding of
the mails.
There will be no general leave of
absence during the holidays, General
Ham announced this week. The time
is too precious. No mar will be Civ
en- a furlough except for most unusual
cause. This division is in for a long
excursion within a few months and no
time can be lost from the preparation.
The rifle. machine gun and artillery
range practice has begun and this is
a most exacting kind of practice.
Every man will be taught 10 use his
weapon effectively. Hundreds Of
thousands of bullets vill be fired at
targets here in the coming weeks.
