The Boys Camp at Winthrop.
Correspondence of The Journalo


AUGUSTA, June 20, 1918.
The camp of the United States Junior
Reserve is the place where the boys of
Maine assemble before going out to do
their bit in agricultural work. The camp
is located in the town of Winthrop, on the
shores of Cobbosseecontee lake. Num-
erous items have appeared in the news
papers and now the Importance and sue
cess of the work is entitled to more than
passing attention.
The lake is beautiful sheet. of water
some nine miles long, with wooded shores
except where an occasional fertile field
has pushed it's way to the waters edge.
About 200 sommer cottages are looking
out upon the lake from beneath the shade
of pine trees which here abound. and, be-
fore the advent of the automobile, about
100 motor boats were on the lake, cough
ing and sputtering their noisy way among
the numerous islands. Several years ago
the lake was chartered and every danger
GUS rock is buoyed. A stone lighthouse,
some 20 feet high, stands on bare rocky
reef in mid lake. In the lantern chamber
is revolving lantern which, from May
goth to September list, flashes white and
red alternately, from dusk to daylight.
There are two other lights burning night
ly during the same period. One lights
narrow ledge bound strait is OF rustic
construction and is built on the shore.
The other is on reef and shines from the
top of an iron framework, similar to that
which one sees supporting the fans OF
windmill, and this framework is about
40 feet high. The expense of maintaining
the stone lighthouse is provided by the
Cobbossee Yacht Club The other two
are maintained by cottage owners living
near the lights.
The site chosen for the encampment is
an excellent one, being in pine forest
several acres in extent The trees are
tall and straight, the underground has
been removed and the land slopes grad
ually and evenly to the lake, thus making
good drainage. The soil is of gravel and
even after heavy rain there is no mud.
The pine trees shelter the tents from
every wind and there is abundant spring
water in the grove. During the last two
wears more than 1900 boys have been here
for week or more, and there has not
been DEATH a serious accident or dan
eerous illness. There are so tents pitched
in sheltered places, in which each boy
has a single cot bed and four heavy army
blankets, but only two are needed except
occasionally. When the writer visited
the camp only $50 boys were there, but
$50 were to arrive the next day, and $50
more were on the waiting list. The books
in the registration office show an enroll
ment of 100 and many names will be
added to the list during the next two
weeks There is a we'll equipped mess
room, open at the side, where the boys
line up for their rations which they take
to commodious pavilion where they sit
at tables and are served water, tea or
cocoa. The boys have band of their
own of which they are justly proud. Dis
cipline is kindly, and in fact very little
real discipline is needed. The best feat
ure of the encampment is, that the boys
are contented and happy. Many BOY

like AN ELECTRIC
BUTTON ON TOES
Tells why corn is SO painful and says
cutting makes them grow

Press an electric button and you form
a contact with live wire which rings
the bell. When your shoes press against
YOUR corn it pushes it's sharp roots down
upon sensitive nerve and you get a
shock of pain.
Instead of trimming your corns, which
merely makes them grow, Just step into
any drug store and ask for quarter OF
an ounce of freezone. This will cost very
little but is sufficient to remove every
hard or soft corn or callus from ones
feet A few drops applied directly upon
a tender, aching corn stops the soreness
instantly, and soon the corn shrivels up
so it lifts right out, root and all, without
pain. This drug freezone is harmless and
never inflames or even irritates the sur
rounding skin.

Now FOR THE REAL CAMPAIGN.

The primary election has passed into
history. Ii was remarkably quiet at
fair. No bitter contests were waged and
ms1y Of cur voters were too busy to 60
40 he polls. This probably accounts for
the light vote. The total of the Demo-
c1atic vote seems to indicate that as far
as the Democrats are concerned "politics
is adjourned" but Republicans should not
Re deceived. The Democrats are busy
even now. This campaign is to be the
prelude to the great political battle which
is to be fought in two years from now.
There should be no "patient waiting" by
Republicans, there should be no slackers
among them, and no unpreparedness'
