The Dinner.
A football game between compa-
nies of our regiment and the old
First Minnesota occupied the morn
ing. Then the banquet dinner at two
o'clock. In our mess hall we had a
large part of one table for guests
which included Mr.. and Mrs. King
and family, Mr.. and Mrs. Reynolds
and Mrs. Clement. wrote you at
Thanksgiving time the menu upon
which we feasted on that occasion
and our Christmas mess was closely
akin to it-a repetition of turkey
with it's accustomed trimmings, peas,
celery. salad, pie, cake, assorted nuts,
topped off with something memorable
as the Mess Sergeant declared, "real
coffee with real cows cream" For
desert extras practically every man
could furnish his own from the stores
of cakes and confections sent from
home, and judging from the loads
of mail sacks and boxes still coming
in there will be extras for many days.

move. And some squads have had
the disagreeable surprise to be max
ing ready to move back "home" again
in the afternoon, only to have one
of their number show up in the
morning with face and chest full
of measles. So it's a piece of big
luck today to have the ban lifted:
Ten weeks cooped up in camp-and
the men scattered this afternoon to
see what Deming and the rest of the
nearby world were doing.
Training Serious.
We are getting new evidence con-
stantly that our training is a really
serious affair and quite contrary to
the popular axiom that when pleas
ure and business interfere, then cut
out the business, business in this ar
my decidedly ranks first. Tighter
restrictions have been made against
issue of passes for men to go to
town. Officers must remain with their
commands until the drill day is closed
at 4:30, and no concession is allowed
for Wednesday and Saturday after
noons-the usual athletic half holi-
days. Likewise no passes are issued
to the men until after that hour. Of
ficers who have their families in town
are excused from camp after the
days work-including evening schools
is over, but must report with the
company the next morning at the
900 reveille. And other officers may
not go to town in the evenings ex-
cept on Wednesdays, Saturdays and
Sundays, then only after the close
of a school period. Mess Sergeants
have the greatest privilege for they
receive permanent passes, good, how
ever. only on Tuesday and Thurs
DAYS during the drill hours, when it
is necessary to purchase supplies.
Visitors Few.
On the other hand admittance OF
visitors to the camp is being dis
couraged. The holiday season has
naturally brought scores OF northern
ers here to visit sons, brothers ano
friends, and in spite the fact thai
they are most welcome to soldier
acouaintances, their presence natur.

hours accordingly are to be restricted
to the spare hours as on the scheduie

False Report

ALLEGED pro-German plots to poi
son Camp Dodge soldiers through
the adulteration of canned tomatoes
and rice with pounded glass are not
standing up well under the test of
an official investigation. A board of
investigation, with Lieut.. Colonel J.
R. Shook, division surgeon at its
head, held the first session today.
"The glass in the rice simmered
down to a few particle found in a
rice pudding, and which are believed

to have arrived there through care
lessness on the part of a cook. The

only four cans, and was not in such

LECTURE ON WAR
CONDITIONS IN PERSIA

Not near so many people as ought
heard the lecture of DR.. E. w. Nc
Dowell, of Persia, at the Presbyterian
church last night The church was
about half filled. But those who were
there were richly repaid for going
out. DR.. Mcdowell has spent thirty
years In Persia, as missionary of
the Presbyterian board of New York
city. He left that land in December
of last year for a needful furlough.
He has seen more than three years of
war conditions on the Turkish-Rus
sian front, and vouches for the truth
of the awful things which have been
perpetrated by the Turkish soldiers
with the approval of the German au-
thorities. A very vivid picture of
conditions was painted without any
effort to .embellish it with undue hor-
rors. The spectacle of starving and
outraged people was constantly be-
fore his eyes. The Armenian and Sy-
rian people who have suffered such
unspeakable things at the hands of
the Moslems are our Christian breth-
rem and it is our duty to aid them on
the basis of Christian charity. An
opportunity is given to save the lives
of hundreds of thousands of the best
blood and brains of the Turkish En-
pire Their only hope is +ho I'D which
comes from America. God help Chris
tan America if it fails them! Then
there is long lipe of mission and re-
lief stations throughout the Turkish
Empire which is held by women mis-
sionaries. The men were deported by
the government, but the women re-
fused to go. Heroically they stay on
to serve the suffering and to die with
the dying, If need be. Such a spec
tacle should touch the hearts of Am
erica. Is it as real battleline as the
western front in France and Belgium
not so long, but requiring as high a
degree of courage. America must not
| fail them! Seventeen cents day, SIS
a month, $50 year will save life.
| The collection last night amounted to
about $500 in cash and pledges. This
money will be handled by Rev. John
r. Herndon, the chairman of the Min
| listers Association, who will be glad
to receive cash and pledges from any
four citizens and will forward it to
the Syrian and Armenian relief com
mittee in New York, from which place
it will be sent to the field. Every cent
given will reach the field and go abou,
its life-saving business. Some of the
| pledges last night were for stated
sums per month for one year. Mr.
Herndon can furnish blank pledges
for such purpose and will be glad to
wait upon any who desire them.
1t should be said in this connection
that our Syrian citizens have re.
| spended literally to the call of THEN
/ kinsmen back home.

lowing notice from the officer in COM
mand of the Atlanta station.
Navy Recruiting Station,

low this as closely as possible. Should
you have reserve applicant that you
cannot hold until ready to send him
in to arrive Thursday morning, you
can then send him in whenever he is
accepted. By having these reserve
men come to the main station this
way, the recruiting officer will then
be able to utilize the first part of each
calendar week to. be away from the
main Office. Make special effort to Sc
cure men for hospital unit as follows:
Cooks, electricians (generaD, carpen-
ter's mates, and mess attendants.
Also make special effort to secure car
penters for air service, construction

EXCELLENT PLACE TO EAT

All the railroad men, and some of
those who have to walk, know Mark
Temple, one Of the most conscientious
restaurateurs who ever served meal.
Mark was implicated for two or more
years with the uptown restaurants,
and there made friends with the Star,
which missed him a lot when he fol-
lowed the union station down the
line.
Mark has him a neat little restau-
rant of his own at the union station
now. It's alongside the Coast Line
track, but most Of the Seaboard pas
-sengers and trainmen go there for
eats.
A couple of the Star men hoofed it
down to the station to see Mark the
other day and found him busy and
genial as usual. He surely has neat
and nifty establishment. His dining
room is bright and well ventilated
and everything kept as neat as a new
pin. His place is an honor to the
town, for many of the railroad men
say it is the best between Jacksonville
and Tampa.
Mark keeps good cooks and smart
walters, and all in all it would be
hard work to find anywhere a better
railroad dining room and lunch coun-
ter than his.

About the worst place on the
