LOCAL WAR NOTES.

ia district one last week and the report
was given out that fully 80 per cent OF
the young men scored perfect physic-
ally. They all went into class |. OF
course the percentage OF the men u
years of age having dependents will be
very much lower than last years class
which included all men up to 81.
Physically defects also naturally are
not so frequent.
Henry o. Guidinger who went TO
Camp Grant on MAY 25th has been as
signed to the ammunition train service
and has started from Kenosha driving
a new large army truck for the New
Jersey seaboard for transport overseas.
Manitowoc employers are not all en-
thusiastic about letting men off to go
to camp at Camp Douglas with the
home guard and there are prospects
that the local company will have only
40 or 45 men in camp instead OF the full
company of 65. There is an actual pos
sibility that the city will lose its COM
pany if there is not a better spirit
shown. Capt. Schade says that prac'
tice in regmental eyolut!ons are abso-
lutely essential.
Over 1000 people gathered at the
Northwestern station Monday noon to
bid farewell to fifty young men depart
ed for Louisville, KY, training camp
