Some idea OF the CELEBRITY with
which the government In rushing
troops from the training camps to
France may be CLEANED from the
rapidity with which new men arc be
ing sent to the training camps To
take ther places. beginning Satur-
day and ending with May \ three
different quotas OF new troops viii
be sent from Tulsa to the training
camps--a total OF lt2 t1en Prob
ably almost an equal number will be
sent from the county, making APP
proNimately 500 drafted men 10 go
out OF Tulsa during the next three
weeks.
Going Over Rapidly.
/ The same ratio kept up through b.
out the country will probably affect
close to 10000 men. and ns this
number goes into the camps II Is as-
sumed that an equal number has
been sent away from them, M that
1t probably wiz not be very wild
guess to say that since the big Ger
man drive began four weeks ago aqd
by the close Of the first week In May
Uncle Sam win have transported
over quarter of "A million soldiers
10 France to swell the expeditionary
forces over there" and II ls prof.
able that by July I tho American
forces abroad will number close To
II million.
Arrangements are complete for
the shipping OF the 8S drafted men
OF the city and 46 from the county
to Camp Travis next Friday The
