HUN HOUNDS

Land of the Midnight Hun. This Ii

quite snug number Of husks who
belong to the Sixty-First instead Of
the Safety-First. With packs at

morning at q greasy senorita in the
mesquite of Arizona and three days
later they are seeing New York on q
24-hour pass.
On Monday the blonde youth from
Stearns Siding, Michigan, who used
to drive delivery wagon and think
he was raising Ned when he plugged
a watermelon, bids Hattie goodbye
and on Thursday he is telling ga
zelle on the White Way that he's GO
ing to be seasick inside of forty-eight
hours.
ALI these dukes are getting out with
no thought of the return passage.
Over the mountains they come, down
into the tented cities of shipping,
singing. laughing. bowling. They are
on the first lap OF their careers as
Hun-hounds and they wouldn't miss

A long time from now there will
be q lot Of buzzards arranged tidily
along the home pavements who never
rode a troop train to a point of en-
barkation. They'll own the corner
banks and an the first mortgages that
are handy. They'll have the half
hitch on most Of the luke In their
respective vicinities and they'll put
ON the dog extensively. They'll be
real chatter.
Flooding the peaceful and unob-
structed paths they'll never get any
elceer to q fight than an argument
over q game Of rhum. They'll never
be pertu1bed and when they come to
nice, slick end the hometown paper
will use up q column Of space that
would otherwise have been filled with
honest advertising and the sexton at
the cemetery will dig the last trench
according to plans and specifications.
But the lists of these birds won't
be complete. They Will be several
entries shy. And the first of these
win be the preparatory trip to the

don't get in and q line Of envy for
those who still have the trip to make.
They represent the annual moult
OF the National Army cantonment.
The Summer shed. It's an actual ex-i
perience for them-this riding of
troop trains. It may ultimately end
in daisy-bOosting contest In the
wasted fields of fair France but that's
no consideration. It's a thrill that
puts every previous heighIeeheighlOw

All those who are taking it will
never be staked out az dubs. They
may have to draw ratiOns.. lin q Ma

they'll have q corner on a lot of con-
versational building material and
they'll know that they put in on the
biggest cooperative plan that has
been offered to the public since the
days Of the Gold Trading Stamp.

he died. He was a true blue pat
riotic American citizen. although he
