At Camp Grant

With the coming of warmer wealth
er regular drill schedules have. been
resumed. Shortly after z a. M, Co.
"D", with the rest of the regiment,
lines up on the parade ground (ankle
deep in mud and after receiving or
ders for the mornings work, march
es out to the drill fl d-muddier
still-and puts in strenuous three
hours of disciplinary work IN d
p n formations. The afternoon,
from 1 o'clock until four-thirty, is a
repetition of the same.
To break the monotony there are
range" days, usually on Monday
for 341st. when the entire day is
spent in the rifle pits, firing at tar
gets from 100, 200 and 800 yards,
slow fire and rapid fire. AS has been
stated before in this column, the
Wisconsin Eagles" lead the entire
Division in reginiental target score.
The camp appears to be having an
epidemic" of inspections. In that
also, the 341st has proved itself a
leader. On Friday I'd" company
was called out at 4 a. M, all cots
carried out and the barracks thor
oughly scrubbed in readiness for in
spection before $50, as the Inspect
or General was due to m the
rounds that day. He found con-
ditions in 341st so good that he re-
commended this regiment as a mo-
del for the Division, and later there
were officers from other units here
on visit to get pointers for the in
struction of their own commands.
Saturdays inspection by t h e
Colonel or Major is usually a most
exacting one. First of all the bar
rocks must be swept and scrubbed.
Every bunk must be in it's place,
aligned in rows to the fraction of an
inch. Certain articles of clothing
a n d messskits, comb, tooth brush
and soap box, are to be in the pre-
scribed places on the shelf at the
head of each bunk. The overcoat
hangs in a particular place at the
left, the blouse at the right shoes
cleaned, have their proper mitch.
When the gun appears imaculately
clean the Inspector may still find an
half-hour's work yet due on it.
Last Saturday, in tidying up the
barracks t h mess room windows
were counted off and one m a n
assigned Ito each window and held
responsible for it's condition for in
spection. Most of t h men took
their window out of the frame, car :
ried it into the bath house and used
the shower bath method on it.
Four new recruits joined Co. Cd"
last week-Nels G.. Peterson, Eddie
M. Olson and John S. O'Connor of
Deer Park, and Bernard A. Kelley
Of Chicago.
Sergeant Fred Striebel returned
Friday from a weeks visit to his
home in Prescott. Supply Sergeant
Hector BaDour is away on pass
this week, visiting in Rochester and
ST. Paul.

A friend and fellow-worker has
been taken from us. For seven
years Miss Flint and [ worked to-
gether in the Normal school library,
and only the pleasantest memories
are connected with those years. She
was most quiet in her work, but al
ways most efficient and most faith
full and conscientious in performing
all the duties assigned.
In the spring Of 1914 she was not
at all well, and resigned her posi-
ton. 1t was with regret that we
saw her leave our faculty, but we
were glad that she had been among
us and that we could call her our
friend.
