M. & B. people up there.
 It would be great to be back there once more, but that is impossible now. The boys up front are doing every thing they are asked, and little bit more, from the looks of things Some body said the boys couldn't fight You ought to be over here and go out to the hospitals and hear their stories. I saw two carloads that were headed for the States recently and in spite of their wounds those lads were about as happy as anyone I have ever seen. When anyone goes to the hospitals where the boys are suffering terribly and sees them smiling and telling of their wounds in laughing way il gives one stronger will power. The feeling between the nurses and men is wonderful thing. It is a great army from a great country.

PLENTY OF EXPERIENCE
 WITH ARMY QUARANTINES

Soldier life in the canal zone and something of his trip there is described in a letter from Private Frederick L. De Vandreuil of Attawaugan, WHO is in Go. B, 33rd U. s. Infantry, in camp at Gatun, Panama. The company has had plenty of experience with quar- antines he writes.
 On the voyage to Panama the trans port stopped at Can Juan, s~orto Rico, where the troops were allowed to go ashore to a camp. Private Vandreuil writes:
 Well, the next morning they took us out for a hike. We marched through the streets of San Juan and then out to the camp. This camp is a Porto Rican draft camp. We didn't get a chance to see much of them as they were under quarantine. So we had mess outside the camp. After dinner we went to the beach and had a swim. | We made the water fly around TOT an hour then returned to the ship. The next day they had to get rid of us for they still had some more sup plies to put in so they gave us a ten hour pass to see the place to please
 ourselves.

PLANS STANDARD WAGE

Washington, May 31.-Standardi-
cation of wages Of common and un-
skilled labor, to halt the enormous
labor turnover that is slowing up
war work throughout the country,
was under consideration today by
the department Of labor.
Such move is essential to equal
distribution of the present labor
supply, officials Of the department
say, because of vary wage rates and
inequality of houring conditions.
Under the standardized wage plan
a carpenter, for instance, would get
the same wages in California as in
New Jersey. This would automatic
ally take away the temptation to
large groups Of men to concentrate
in one district at the expense OF
others.
