tatnment. The singing of Mrs. Andrews,
Mr.. Mulherin and Miss Donen of Augusta

The weekly boxing tournament of
thursday evening drew the usual large
crowd and the quality of the bouts was
ment was that bout had been scheduled
for next Thursday evening between Jerry
Hennesy, the nationally known light
weight (the young fellow who has within
few weeks time made himself the
most talked-of boxer in the camp and by
his gentlemanly conduct in the ring and
out secured host of admirers) and
Terry Murphy, the well-known light
weight of the 18th Division. Hennesy
has offered to meet any man of his
weight in camp and has given several in
teresting exhibitions of his skill at vari-
Gus times in the building. Because of
the reputation of these two men this bout
is looked forward to with much interest

much Importance.
The festivities on this day will be I'M
der the direction of the Supreme Assem-
bly, of the Fourth Degree, with Mr. Vic
tor Dorr of Augusta as chairman of the

ut is not too late to say that the Sc
ries of meetings organized by the knights
of Columbus throughout the country on
Washington's Birthday, at which capable
speakers set forth the patriotic duty of
Americans, constitute a fine service to
| the nation at this time.'

KNIGHTS OF COL UMBUS'
NEW BUILDING DEDICATED

The second building of the Knights
of Columbus has been completed in
the artillery section at Camp Hancock,
and was formally dedicated on Sunday
last. The 109th Field Artillery Band
gave several selections. The building
was presented to Camp Hancock by
the Ri. Rev. B. j. Kelley bishop of
Savannah, who emphasized the dem
onstrated loyalty of Catholics to the
United States government in the
present war. The building was ac-
cepted by Major General Charles H.
Muir, commander Of the 28th division,
who enforced the thought that men
who come to places like this building
most frequently will be up for discip-
line least frequently.
Short addresses were also made by
Chaplain Conay; by Rev. William
Russell Owen, religious work secretary
of Association Building 231, and by
Chaplain James M. Farr, of the 109th
Field Artillery. Mr.. Joseph R. Allen,
secretary of the Knights of Columbus,
in few remarks emphasized the mot
to of the knights Of Columbus Build

ASSOCIATION BUILDINGS
AND PERSONNEL

Buildings aggregating in cost over $780,
600 have been contracted for by the Army
and Navy Y. M. C. A. since January
LIST, 1918, to be built in the training camps
and naval stations of the seven states in
the Southeastern department-the Caro-
linas, Georgia, Alabama Florida, Tennes-
see, and Mississippi. The actual authori-
cations by the National War Work Coun-
Gil Y. M. c. A. amount to $228,351. The
United States government is cooperating
to the fullest extent and much of the
labor is furnished by camp command
ants.
In all, 81 new buildings have either
been completed since January list, or are
now in the process of construction in this
department. Numerous additions to pres
ent buildings have been authorized as
many of the Red Triangle huts would not
accommodate the crowds of soldiers maxi
ing use of the building
There are now 685 Army and Navy Y.
M. G. A. secretaries serving the soldiers
and sailors in the Southeastern depart
ment. At every one of the larger Y. NJ

ing of additions for sleeping quarters for
secreta&ies has been found necessary and

MILITARY TRAINING

Bill Jonah Tinkle worked for me before
the army got him, and such slouchy
youth was he, 1 often yearned to swat
him. He walked with an ungainly stoop,
he shambled and he shuffled, and didn't
seem to care a whoop whose minds were
soreily ruffled. When in repose he seem
to slump, as though his joints were fail
ing; he had to lean against a pump, a
building or a railing. And when he went
away, to drill, said, Twill be pity, if
they have many men like Bill down there
near Junction City. An army made of
gangling gents, swaybacked and double
jointed, will look, in France, like twenty
cents-Haig will be disappointed" 1 saw
this lad the other day, he was slick and
sassy; | hardly knew the blooming jay.
he was so clean and classy. Erect, alert,
well-groomed and slim, Me walked with
spring and Vigor as though his legs be-
longed to him, and not to some lay fig
ure The army took this reuben green,
and made him an Apollo; oh, wondrous
transformation scene-it beats the band
all hollow! The army has magicians
beat; it takes the knock-kneed sinner,
the man who is all neck and feet, and
makes of him a winner.

FEAST OF PUR1UM

The Jewish Feast of Purim falls this
year on Tuesday February 18th. This
feast has been celebrated annually by
the Jews to commemorate the deIiverance
Of the Jews from the Persian oppres-
sion. as narrated in the Book of Esther
The Feast has been characterized
throughout it's history by the giving of
gifts from parents to children and by the
children to the PARENTS but its chief
mark has been the general giving of
gifts to charity. In the home it is mark
ed by the cooking of special goodies; and
the children celebrate it by going about
from house to house masked.
The Jewish Welfare Board. through its
representative in the camp, Mr. Landman,
is arranging an entertainment to be
given on Monday night, February 25th, in
Y M. c. A. Building No. 78, on Pennsyl-
vania Avenue, near the 10th Infantry, at
