LARGE NUMBER OF men
LEAVE FOF CAMP MEADE
Nearly Il Hundred Men Left on Boat
Yesterday Escorted TO Steamer
By Citizens Band-Many Farmets
In The Lot.

! Seventy-two more men answering
the call of their country yesterday
! left on the B., G.. & A. steamer at SIX
O'Clock, enroute for Camp Meade,
where they will go iato training De-
i fore going overseas for duty In the
number who left yesterday were q
number of men who would have been
called earlier but for the fact that
they were engaged in Agricultural
pursuits and had been placed at tna
end of the list so as to permit them
to help as far as possible in tha
planting and harvesting this years
crops. IA
The success of the Allied drive on
the Western front has made it SfH-R.
perative that more troops be rushed
to France so that when the Allies
have beaten down the enemy's lC
serves and have found the weaE
point in the line they may be able
to push through, while possessing
enough troops to hold the enemy ~
check at all other points and prevent
a rushing of reserves to the point, OF
the breach 1t is the confident ex
pectation of the Allied Command &
this time that the war will be endesi
next year; that is, if the necessafss
troops can be gotten over, and their
plan is to end the war then inste<S
of permitting it to drag along fd
many years.
When the men left yesterday thts
were accompanied by the Citizens
Band, which, without any suggestion
from anyone outside, decided thf
they would accompany them, amp
called up the Local Board and madf
the arrangements to do so. The musH
was a very great addition to thf
marching, and it was greatly apprF
ciated, not only by the men wne
were leaving, who felt that the men
behind were honoring them, but by
those who were left at home. as II
showed the right spirit and showed
that the hearts of the men in the
band were with the boys who wee.s
leaving.
