DANCE AT CAMP MEADE
BY OFFICERS OF 315TH
Guests From Baltimore, Washing
ton and Philadelphia Attend
Farewell Social Event.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
CAMP MEADE, Md, June 20
With guests from Baltimore, Wash
ington and Philadelphia, the 315tb
Infantry officers gave dance last
evening that marked the climax of
social life in the camp for this regi-
ment. Division staff officers, brigade
officers and staff officers from all
units in camp were entertained by
the Philadelphians. The band and
orchestra of the regiment played and
there were special solo features be-
tween dances. The big auditorium Of
the Y. NJ. c. A. was attractively deco
rated. The event was success in
every way. and will be remembered
possibly for years by the officers and
the ladies. some of whom came by
long train and motor rides to be on
hand. Special motor cars were in
the camp for the Use of guests, and
special trolley cars were arranged
for shortly after midnight. An enjoy
able buffet supper was one of the
features of the evening.
This was the farewell event, for
from now on the officers will have no
time to prepare for more entertain
ments. Today the 313th Infantry, the
Baltimore unit, will give a play. The
315th has prepared a play, but has
not yet made arrangements for the
presentation. The chief idea of the
plays, however. is to entertain the
American soldiers already in France.
and it was for that purpose that the
commission on training camp activi-
ties sent w. F. Rochester, the play
wright and coach, here to form
dramatic clubs.

The Harvest

The wheat will soon be ready,
throughout the golden west, for
workers strong and steady to
come and do their best; the
long green fields are turning to
yellow in the sun, and, viewing
them, we're learning how we
shall can the Hun. The wide,
wide fields are golden, as CRATE
full to the eyes, as in the ages
olden was mama from the skies.
For wheat means more than
giving a pampered people bread
it's triumph for the living, and
vengeance for the dead. The
wheat from all these regions
where reapers soon will sing
will feed our fighting legions
and balk the kultur king. Oh,
worker, come rejoicing, and bind
the golden sheaves, a song of
gladzess voicing. and not as one
who grieves.. Oh, toiler, tread
the stubble, like victor proud
and strong, nor think the task a
trouble because the hours are
long. AS much as men with
sabers you fight the Teuton
knaves, SO blithely face your
labors and not like galley slaves.
So to the wheat fields journey
as gay as knights of old, who
fastened to the tourney on fields
of cloth Of gold. With courage
of the stole into the harvest
prance; there's nothing more
heroic on all the fields of France.

Paper Fabrics In Norway.

The Nydalens company, one of Nor
ways leading textile manufacturers.
has for some time been experimenting
with paper textiles, and the results
have been SO good that its factory will
soon produce these new fabrics on q
large scale. according to a commercial
agent report from Copenhagen. They
consist of IS per cent paper and %
per cent cotton and are said to be soft
and warm; a little heavier than Ordi-
nary cotton goods and not quite SO
strong, but cheaper They should be
especially suited, says the Norwegian
press, for blOuses, dresses, curtains,
and, in short, as substitute for cot
ton goods in general.
