56TH PIONEERS
FINALLY MOVE

Sergt. Gerald Averill of the Personnel
office, Camp Wadsworth. S. G., writes
the Bangor News under date OF Aug. 90
The 56th Pioneer Infantry, formerly
the 1st Maine Heavy Field Artillery,
has at last embarked on its long waited
journey.
This morning at 9 o'clock the long
columns of smiling dough-boys began
to swing into line for the embarkation
depot, and by now this mnch-talked-of
regiment is we'll on its way north again.
One look at their shining faces would
dispel the gloom experienced by their
relatives and friends, occasioned by
their going, for they are very happy
unuuestionably so!
The boys from Bangor marched by as
l finished delivering a message to Col
onel Boyer, which gave me an opportu-
nifty to take a last good look at my for
mer terminates before they took the long
trail.
There was no chance for "goodbyes'
as it was all very quiet and military
just an instant for eyes to meet. and
muttered 80 long, Kid" before they had
,
moving brown, surmounted by a thicket
Of rifles From my point Of vantage by
the roadside l spoke to them all-Serg'I
Carter of Brewer Se-gt. Ambrose CT
Bangor, Corporal Ingraham. Bangor
First Sergt Norwood, Brewer. and 9th
er non-coms from the northern part o
the State.
Practically every member OF the old
artillery is a non-commissioned officer
in the 56th and as such they are hard to
beat. Having been member Of that
organization for nearly a year, almost
every man is personally known to me,
and finer more intelligent group OF
men can not be found.
The circumstances that made the reg
| iment a military joke for time were
| supposedly unavoidable, and it is GER
tainly not the fault of the officers and
! men that they were not cover there
! six months ago. Their days of road
building and cleaning camp sites in the
sunny South are over, and let us hope
that their next scene of operations will
be in Berlin.
According to the latest reports. Pho
neer Infantry are to be used as recon-
structive elements only, but they viii
make good either with bayonet or SHOW
ell; although practice with the latter i'm
plement has made them a great deal
more proficient In it, use.

Red Cross work in all it's branches
was taken up Wednesday at the
meeting of Red Cross workers from
all over the Pine Tree State at the
State House. The meeting was an
earnest, intensive get-together of
workers who came with the sole in
tent of learning how to advance their
work, there being present as speak :
ers, leaders of Red Cross activities in
the New England Division with
headquarters in Boston. Over 400
delegates and visitors were present
at the morning session. The wool
shortage. the necessity of clothing
the soldier overseas, the need Of re-
ports of funds and amount of work
of chapters. care of the soldier after
the war, keeping up the morale at
home, all were discussed by able
speakers.
Morning Session
The morning session was presided
over by Hon. Blaine S. Viles. The
address of welcome was given by
Division Manager James Jackson.
He spoke in part as follows. He
said s1S,000,000 is the price of raw
material which has been sent across
in a six months period.
He told what should be given to
drafted men when they start for
their destination. On account of the
great demand for wool at present it
is best to give these men the wooden
articles when the cold period ar
rves instead OF at the present time,
thereby causing a temporary lctup
on the wool shortage. Overseas at
once are needed $4,000 sweaters.
Comfort kits are necessary for men
going overseas. The best way to
distribute these goods is by means OF
the army itself This can be accom-
p!ished through the Quartermaster's
Department. which will warrant an
equal distribution to the men.
Liberty Loan comes before Red
Cross. If Liberty Loan doesn't come
through the Red Cross might just as
well close up Mr.. Jackson suggest
ed that every Red Cross worker go
to Liberty Loan Committee and Of
fer their services. Don't seek adver-
Using through the Liberty Loan and
don't form organization for boosting
loan as the Liberty Loan already has
n pretty good organization, but do
all that YOU can in working for the
Liberty Loan. Mr.. Jackson told of
incidents whereby Red Cross work
ers used their influence to a good re-
sult. Tie announced that James A.
Hutchinson is to enter the service

Urues Need Of PIav.

The necessity and desirability Of
sufficient play to relieve the strain Of
daily effort are dwelt upon in bulle-
tin recently issued by DIR. Samuel G.
Dixon, health commissioner of the
commonwealth of Pennsylvania, who
says:
'sMost people would say that plays
first requisite was that it should con-
sist of something one doesn't have to
do. Play is in reality. however. of all
sorts and descriptions. Those that pro-
duce something useful besides giving
rest are greatly to be preferred. There
are many sorts equally stimulating to
the mind and to the body and produc-
tive of valuable results. One essential
to beneficial play is that it be whole
some and be performed in a healthful
environment, that is where we have
pure-moving air Of the right tempera-
ture and preferably sunlight.

Women Planners Of Homes.

Women folks are taking an active
hand in the affairs of the world today
more than ever before. 1t is quite of
ten the case that the building of a new
home is left largely in the hands Of
its mistress.
There are several good and practical
reasons for such an arrangement. In
the first place, the woman does or
should spend more time in the house
than her husband. 1t is her duty and
most always her pleasure to keep the
inside of the house in order. She is usu-
ally closer observer in such matters
and nearly always has. better taste
than her husband. Another mighty
good reason, from the husbands stand
point, is that he will not have to listen
to the disagreeable phrase, ''I told you
sog
