poultrymen believe that II pays to have

Don't Buy Cheap Machine.

Cheap machines are less reliable, re-
Quire more attention and wear out
much quicker than higher-priced incu-
bators. AS the value of the machine is
small compared to the value of the
eggs used during the normal life OF the
incubator, 1t Is poor economy to pur.
chase a machine that Is not reliable.
The details Of construction and
equipment of most incubators are so
subject to change that 1t Is impossible
to state definitely the best kind of
lamps, brackets, regulators and other
equipment for the different incubators.
The lamp should have bowl large
enough to hold sufficient oil to burn at
least 80 hours under average weather

Late reports from the American Elk

that the total insurance written tol

is $8,085. Camp Hancock, with 34,671

ance has made a very good showing to

icies in this Camp is $8,678.70.
1t is believed that many men in the

War Risk Insurance in February or
who only applied for small amounts
did not fully realize the hazards and

SPECIAL SERVICES
FOR HOLY WEEK

The Y. NJ. C. AS of the country are
planning to make a special feature of
their services during Holy Week. In
Camp Hancock it is the plan to have a
devotional service of some nature at all
the Y, M. c. A buildings every night of
that week.
In most cases the regular program of
building activities will be put on as usual
but will include the religious service eth
er before or after the regular program.
A strong group of speakers for these
meetings has been secured and many of
the Augusta pastors have volunteered
their services and all of the camp pastors
will be active in these meetings. Besides
these men, Mr. F. r. Bunker of the Y.
NJ. G. A. will give in each building dur
ing Holy Week, his illustrated stereopti-
con lecture on the Life of Christ" 1t
is hoped that DR.. Ashby Jones of Atlanta
will be in camp for the purpose of MAX
ing religious addresses during that week
also And DR.. w. I. Wishart of Pitts
burg. who has been doing such splendid
work here will take prominent part in
making the week one of inspiration and
helpfulness to the men of the 2Sth Di-
vision.
