Mr.. and Mrs. L. S. Pease, who spent
the weekend with their son Frederick
at Camp Custer, Battle Greek, Mich,
report most enjoyable time. They
saw all of the Wauwatosa boys located
at the camp, and these same boys
seemed most pleased to see someone
from their home town. The Y NJ c..
A. work at the camp was an especially
pleasing feature, for large and commo-
dious quarters have been furnished by
this organization for the comfort and
welfare of our boys in camp. Music
is at their command with piano and
victrolas easy of access. Camp roads
are in good condition, the sanitation
is excellent, training quarters are
pleasantly located and the boys are as
comfortable and happy as possible
when away from home and friends on
duty for their country. Doubtless any
Wauwatosa citizen who made a visit
to Camp Custer-or any other camp
where our boys are in training-would
be accorded hearty welcome.

citizen will be ready to subscribe and
help the women in reaching their goal.
