during the long evening hours. This is
especially true in regard TO the Delaware
men in the Pioneer Regiment Of Infantry
and every evening IN the barracks,
occupied by the men, some sort of amuse-

One great thing that the boys are long
ing for is the opportunity To visit the y NJ
huts here. At Admission there was
one hut for the division, while here pine
buildings are catering 10 the wants OF the
men The knights of Columbus also
only had one building at the southern
camp, while they have three here. At
the present time the soldiers are not
allowed TO enter the huts on account Of the
quarantine restrictions, but as soon as the
ban is lifted there is no doubt but that the
secretaries of hut No. |, which is near
the Delaware regiment, will have their
hands full, for the men will throng the
place from reveille to taps.

Soldiers Need Wool.

A CAMPAIGN to conserve the wool
an now in the retail market has
been instituted by many womens or
ganizations, among them the Minne-
sofa women's committee of the COM
mission of public safety and council
of national defense. This group Of
women issued the following esti-
mates. arranged by Miss Marian
Weller. chairman of the commission
on war dress. professor of the Uni-
Nersity of Minnesota:
"A soldier uses thirteen times as
much wool as a civilian. 1t requires
lee pounds to equip soldier fully
NO fiber viii replace wool. The
soldiers uniform to be of the greatest
service must be, all wool of the best
grade. The civilian can use a substi-
tute in many places''
Can you afford an extra sweater
now?" is the appeal made by the New
Jersey division. "One woman had 13
new quilts stored in her attic. An
other has 36 sweaters to match all
her suits Pour out such treasures.
