Special Hicksville Breeze
EDITED FROM CAMP HANCOCK

Camp Hancock, Augusta. Ga.
Feb. 10, 1918.
Dear Junior Reader:
1t has been over two months
since the "Hicksville Breeze" made
it's last appearance, and while lay
ing around this sunny south"
camp. l have decided to edit spe-
cial edition OF the Breeze" from
Camp Hancock.
l have been told in letters that
the Breeze" has been missed in
the junior Palladium each week.
and can say l miss the pleasure Of
preparing It's appearance as we'll.
and only hope that this war will
soon be ended, and that all the
young men can come back home to
take up their former occupations
and all the pleasures Of life as be-
fore.
The weather at Camp Hancock.
Augusta. Ca, is fine at present and
is something Hike June weather up
north. but the nights are awful cold.
Sometimes we have heat. but most
Of the time our nights are heatless.
and 1t would be very unpatri0tic
idea for anyone to kick on q heat
less Monday, when I'VE boys Of
Uncle Sans army" have several
heatless days q week
Every "Sammie." washes his own
dishes and clothes, makes his own
bed; helps about the mess hall
Chats what we call dinning rooms)
and In fact. there are very few
trades and bits Of manual labor
that the soldier doesn't have to do.
II is believed that all the soldiers
will be a great help to their wives
and can SHOW up" sister when 1t
comes to doing housework. SO be-
ware girls!-and speed up" for
preparedness.
hope that this special edition Of
the Breeze" will be enjoyed by the
junior readers, and that the
Breeze" will be able to spring
up" again soon. whether 1t be from
America or in France.
With best wishes to every true
American; and we hope to return
soon after the kaiser realizes that
America is going TO help get
him" and get him good,
Yours sincerely,
