CAMP QUARTERMASTER HAS
MAN-SLZE JOB ON HIS HANDS
TO LOOK AFTER $4,000 MEN
How Major Schen Works With Uncle Sam at the Big
Southern Training Post

Houston, Dec. THE quarter
master depot at Camp Logan issues
more than 100000 a month in
necessities for the men in camp.
Two millions month is an in
teresting figure. Two months of it
would pay the bills of the munich
pality of Houston for a year.
But the really arresting fact about
the quartermaster force at Camp Lo-
gan is this:
There are ten civil service clerks
and 20 enlisted men in the camp
quartermaster's office. With these
thirty men Major Edward H. Schell,
of Harrisburg, camp quartermaster,
and the officers under him run the
business of supplying $4,000 enlisted
men with all and LOO officers with
q good part of their material ne
cessities. That is to say, thirty men
do all this for more than $4,000
a thousand to one responsibility.
Chief Clerk J. L. Douglas, veteran
of thirty-six years service in the
corps, was proud to make that state
ment.
There are 210 men, all told, as
signed to the camp quartermaster at
Camp Logan. Only thirty of these,
however, are in the administrative
department.
There was never a camp quarter
master depot run more smoothly,
with less friction. When you sug-
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1917-12-07

gest that to Mr. Douglas he smiles
and says frankly: "They don't have
them"
Quartcrmaster's Duties Are Varied
The duties of a quartermaster at
Camp Logan are so varied and so
extensive that the subject can not
be adequately handled in brief
space. That was Mr.. Douglas blunt
statement when he was asked to talk
about the big job and how it is done.
He said he could supply totals, some
exact some approximate, and that
was about all. He did that cheer
fully, though he was constantly in
terrupted by officers, orderlies,
clerks, stenographers and civilians,
all wanting information and gravi-
tating naturally to the man who
knows all that there is to know
about running a quartermaster de-
pot.
The camp quartermaster's depot
at Camp Logan has to provide food,
clothing, heat, light, equipment, for
age, shelter and upkeep on the trans
port for the 0.000 odd men in train
ing there. The quartermaster has
to pay off all officers and men
monthly. 1t is even his duty to sup
ply a certain part of the amusement
for the men in camp.
Camp Logan, the plant, cost the
nation s1.950,000 as it stands to-day.
1t is costing that much every month
to run it.
Lieutenant Horace E. Wilson. dis
bursting quartermaster, assistant to
Major Schell, took up his work on
August 2S. just a week after the
advance companies of the Illinois
National Guard arrived in camp.
In the remaining week of August
he paid out $4,000. In September
he signed away $344,0O0. In Octo-
ber he gave out little green treas

Another writer in speaking of

thing about mother either in
their wakeful hours of suffering
or in their feverish delerium.

Erie, the famous French fash

December number of Harper's

tunes that are entirely different
from anything we have ever
seen. One made from squares
of chamois- pale gray and old
rose joined with taupe embroid-
ery--has moleskin for collar,
cuffs and girdle. The other cos
tune is a one-piece affair made
by joining together irregular
pieces of white chamois.
In addition to this sports cos
tune, Erie shows some rather
unusual evening gowns. Par

No News Means Good News

Although the failure to receive
letters from men in the service
is not pleasant to relatives and
friends at home the adage mo
news is good news was never
more true than at present. The
report of every casualty at home
or abroad is Immediately wired
or cabled to officials at Washing
ton, being relayed from there
without loss of time to the emer-
gency address of the soldier or
sailor affected. 1t is also at once
released for publication in the
newspapers. No news of casual
ties has or will be held up.
No man in the service has re-
ceived orders not to write home;
he has been urged, on the con-
trary, to keep in touch with rela-
tives and friends. The forces in
France have at their disposal
post cards giving general infor-
nation in regard to health and
the receipt of letters and parcels,
which may be used without pay
ment of postage.
Care is also taken to see that
mail intended for soldiers and
sailors reaches them promptly.
Where the regimental and COM
pany designation of a soldier is
not known it may be secured by
application to The Adjutant Gen.
erals Office, Washington, ID. C.
In one week 1,674 letters with
insufficient addresses were re.
ceived at this office. On 1882
the addresses were completed
and they were forwarded, 12S

In RaId-FaIl to Explode Ar.

Petrograd, July A force Of Cos
sacks, acting under orders from the
provisional government, raided the
villa of M. Duronovo, former minister,
which since the revolution has been the
headquarters of Maximalists and an
archists, many Of whom were returned
exiles from America. The government
had given orders to arrest criminals
among the anarchists and also per-
sons who helped to release offenders
detained in the Kresti prison.
When the Cossacks entered the yard
several bombs were thrown by an
archists. The bombs failed, however,
to explode The Cossacks did not re-
ply, but on entering the villa they found
the body of a well-known anarchist
named Atm, whose comrades declared
he had committed suicide. Arrests
were made and the villa Is now in the
hands Of the troops.
