the poetic idea.
"There have been many since, but

'"The idea of making the picture

parts OF France recently wrested from

". even in officers quarters, until an
nouncement came Thursday that six
companies Of United States regulars
from the 22d Infantry, stationed at
Fort jay, Governors Island, would ar
rive Friday for a months training on
the rife ranges. That encampment has
already been established in the plot
directly east of the National Guard
camp, and by the coming of these ad-
dltional forces the total enrolment of
the camp has reached the / 500 mark.
Major Marcus Stokes. l.. ). A., the
senior inspector-instructor of the
Guard encampment, is giving the stu
dent officers the bayonet combat In as
large doses as they can stand. New
Jerseys Plattsburg has been thrusting
right and left and doing the upward
jab an hour at q time. and arms that
hung limp after the first session of

Semaphore signalling would probably
win in walk in any popularity voting
contest. The men seem TO take this
instruction as pastime in comparison
with the other more gruelling activl-
ties. ITS the candy with the medi-
cine" said one non-com. Even with
their slight first knowledge of the sig
mailing game, the officers and non-coms
joke with each other through the use
of the semaphore and wig-wag systems.
The morale Of the encampment is
excellent. "These are all officers or
non-commissioned officers said Major
Stokes, "and they realize New Jersey is
giving them an unusual opportunity to
/ get into action at a much earlier date
} than would otherwise be possible.
Every drill and class mas been marked
by the interest shown by every man
in the group. They're here for BUSH
ness, and they're absorbing all we can
give them in this short period"
4 So the order of things at encamp-
ment-famous Sea Grit has changed
What was once a vacation period for
the Guardsmen of other years has be-
come stern two weeks of gruellng
work. work that tires and wears and
work that brings a grim realization OF
the purpose behind it all. And though
Sea Girt's calendar of dates for the
season is not entirely filled with off
ciel bookings, there is little doubt that
this training centre Of Jersey is or
