Opinion Of Camp Cody

"No mother need worry be-
cause her son is at Camp Cody.
1t is one Of the healthiest if not
the healthiest cantonment IN the
country. Complaints in regard
to it have been circulated, either
by disgruntled soldierss who
failed to evade the draft or by
men who are pro-German in their
sympathies. :"
These were the statements made
today by Edwin FL. Brown, Red
Cross field agent at Camp Cody
who is at his home in Minneapolis
for few days visit. Mr.. Brown
has been at Camp Cody for six
months, in charge of the Red
Cross work at that station. He
has observed and compiled stats
tics relating to the general health
of the camp, and from these sta
tistics and observations bases a
statement contradicting in large
measure the report of the investi-
eating committee sent to Camp
Cody by the Minnesota Public
Safety Commissions
cit is greatly to be regretted
that such reports as have been
spread derogatory to the camp
should have been given the wide
circulation and credence that they
have" declared Mr.. Brown

Proctor Was Easy

The Ely City basketball shoot
ers had an easy time of it with TIE
Proctor contingent at the Audi
torSlm Saturday evening when
they romped away with the game
on score Of AZ to 4. The game
was an interesting one and was
largely attended.
The Ely City team is by long
odds the best team ever on the
local floor. They are a fast
bunch and are able to hold their
own with anything in this north
ern end of the state. The team is
composed of Ray Koeffler, Thos.
J. Murn, Ernest Hanson, Oni
Hegman, Walter Carlson and
Harold Chinn. Dates for games
are looked for.

up fair fight, they failed to con-
meet at vital stages Of the game.

more than a year and finally re-

at Silver City, New Mexico.
Camp Cody is less than 40 miles

knows that climate unfavor-

equally unfavorable to the devel-

"The most pitiful effect that it
will have will be to cause need

For another reason it will be
playing right into the hands OF
German agitators.
"They would welcome any re-
ports that would help hinder our
government in the work Of prep

stories as have been circulated
concerning Camp Cody will have
this immediate effect. 1t will
make men, who are unwilling to
enlist anyway, redouble their Ell

rise to an effort to have the can

These two men are to take the

from this district had been filled
but by the discharge Of three men
a vacancy is caused. Credit has

came accustomed to this sudden
change. They would leave camp
at night without their overcoats
or sweaters and would be chilled
before they got back to camp.
This induced colds, but such
colds were largely the fault of
the men, carelessness and could
not have been prevented. Now
there is a rule strictly enforced
at Camp Cody, that no man may
leave camp without his overcoat
and sweater. That has helped to
check the epidemic of colds.
