Willmar Tribune,
Willmar, MINI.
Friend Victor Lawson:
Thinking probably you would like
to hear from some one from dear old
Kandiyohi county, l am writing you.
The boys are all in different compan.
les, in other camps. am the only
one in my company from home. We
sometimes meet one another if out
walking but then very seldom. There
are only about 10000 boys here, ten
times larger than Willmar and I used
to think Willmar was large.
We have fine food here and plenty
of it. Will tell you what we had for
dinner or lunch as you people call it:
fried chicken, mashed potatoes, gravy,
corn, vegetables, bread and butter,
pineapple shortcake and coffee.
We have some very nice times in
my company. We do not do much
drilling, mostly exercises and they
last an hour. We have no detail work
like kitchen, police or guard duty
which we are thankful for. We, how.
ever, keep our place clean and that
is very easily done, each one Of us is
supposed to keep clean which is one
of the most important factors Of this
army.
Illinois is good state but I, for my
part will take Minnesota the first
chance I get. The dust is something
fierce here. If it rains one day, it is
just as dusty the next.
The work of the Y. M. c. A. certain
ly is wonderful, really our home while
at camp Soldiers of talent there en-
terrain each other and then movies
nearly every evening, good talks, very
instructive, on Sundays services are
held in the forenoon. Today there
are many thousands of visitors here
at camp. Sisters, mothers and mostly
sweethearts come to visit their soldier
friends. will not attempt to write
any more this time; time being short,
the camp too large and 1, no writer.
With heartiest greetings to all from
Camp Grant,
