INTERESTING LETTER FROM
A PAONIA SOLDIER BOY

The following letter published in the
Paonian describes things at one of the
army camps SO vividly that we reprint
the same.
Writing from Camp KeaIney to his
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. B. A. Heter
Wayne Heter says: Y
Camp Kearney, nicknamed the Sun
shine Division is ten by twelve miles
in dimension and as far up-and-down
as you want to go, so long as you are
back in time for roll call in morning
We use all of it. The aviators use the
upper part, the rest of US, the surface
and as far down as we can dig and
blast, for the trenches are an import
ant part of the camp.
"Were it not for the camp you would
call this desert. You can't see San
Diego or the ocean and you can count
all the signs of civilization visible
from the camp on the fingers of one
hand. 1t is an ideal site for an ex-
elusive military camp; in fact, it is 50
exclusive that the birds don't even
visit it
"One side of the camp is a solid
rectangle of khaki and white tents
which are occupied by the Infantry
The opposite side is rectangle Of
tents with a parallel rectangle occu-
pied by corrals, stables, field guns
wagons, and other equipment neces-
sary to the members of the adjoinina
rectangle, who are artilleryfnen, cav
alrymen, engineers, signal corps, and
the men of the remount station. It il

street corner loafers.

for q visit. Lloyd is q member Of Bat

WHAT SHERMAN SAID
General Sherman's often quoted and
at the present time most significant
statement regarding war, is not known
Dy many in its entirety. Here is Whist
the famous general really did say, and
it is q classic:
II confess without shame that I am
tired and sick Of war. It's glory Il
all moonshine. Even success, the
most brilliant, is over dead and man
gled bodies, the anguish and lamen-
tation Of distant families appealing to
me for missing sons, husbands and
fathers. 1t is only those who have
not heard shot nor heard the shrieks
and groans of the wounded and lacer.
ated, that cry aloud for more blood.
more vengence, more desolation. War
is hell!"

silk and wool are the yarns used for
the handsome machine-knitted gar

nearly like Aand-knitted ones that ii is
not always easy to distinguish between
them. There is more precision in the
machine-knitted sweaters, all the
stitches exactly alike, but many of
them are finished with hand knitting.
Leaving out the sweaters and sweat
er coats of silk and silk fiber which
are worn with sport skirts or other

smart woman's wardrobe, there are
many styles in the very practical
sweaters for real sports wear. Two of
these are shown in the Illustration
one for the "fiapper"-at the right and
one for the grownup. These are both
of wool, closely knitted and are classed
as fitted slip-overs. The sweater for

Sport apparel, now having become
settled and accepted institution in
the business of outfitting for the sea-
sons, has reached new developments.
These are in the directions of new re-
finements. Fabrics that were not in
the running for sports wear a season
or two ago, hold the center of the stage
today, without displacing the older
favorites.
In sports coats the spring brought in
sleeveless models in silk and in velvet
along with new long-sleeved coats in
both these materials. Velvet in sports
coats is an innovation, but it appears
made up in designs that leave no room
to doubt the purpose of the garment.
Wide girdles, very big patch pockets,
large, flat pearl buttons and parallel
rows of stitching in white or colored
silks or In the color of the coat, stamp
its character very certainly upon it.
These velvet coats, sleeveless or 9TH

wear. It is shown in vivid tones of
green. in rose and in blue shades. It
is not so altogether practical as the
regulation sweater coat, buttoned at
the front and provided with sleeves,
hut it is amazingly smart. Among the
sweater coats there are loosely knit
models with plated skirts and knitted
sashes. finished with fringe that are

velvet coats will be worn with wool or
