agree to having within it's substrata
buried Murder Incarnate Then, again,
there is the possibility that Kaiserism
will find its grave on its own native
soil. Prussia soil already carries with
in its depths the ancestry Of Kaiserism.
May we not then hope that at this time
its grave will be fathomless so that it
may never rise again. In that case
doubt if the 63rd will offer any serious
objection. What matters it where
Kaiserism lies buried? The important
task is that 1t should be buried and it
is towards this end that the 63rd Is
dedicating its muscular pride at the
rifle range.
And it is not so easy task as some
laymen may think it to be. Ask Priv
ate Geese, who has to his credit, I be-
lieve, the deepest spot in the burial
ground, and he will tell you that,
though his mentality has not been tax
ed to extreme exertion las a matter Of
fact he is reputed to have little use for
it at all times) his physical ability has
been put to the test.
While he. and others with him, are
quite confident that their names will
go down in history as the outstanding
figures in this pioneer work, if only
through the Trench and Camp, there
are those in the G3rd who have many a
sigh because fate denied them the priv
ilege of Dartaking in this humane piece
of work. They are, so to speak, the
-combatants Of the company. But
they perform a service. the importance
Of which it would be unjust ron the
part of the historian to minimize: they
are charged with the supreme duty Of
maintaining the morale Of the men who
every morning make their pilgrimage
to the rifle range, the site chosen for
the burial ground Of KaIserism

Rumor has ii that Goldfarb is ready to
challenge any man in Camp Hancock
to beat him in endenring terms. He

ton Privately was told that no 10
date of induction into service he had
broken the hearts of sufficient beauties
to complete two Turkish haremg.
Though there is no official record or
how many he has added to his list Of
broken heartef since his arrival in
Camp Hancock, IL Is estimated on good
authority that the number has already
reached the second decimal point.
