"A few days came announcements "
the results of the examination, and
out of L company Z men have goAe
to the contact camp for trying to
carry concealed germs.
The doctors here are certainly
working for the government and in.
asmuch as the government can use
only electives. sickness and spread
of disease will be checked The past
week as sanitary measure, tent
floors have been treated to coat Of
oil. Orders have also gore forth that
tents must regularly be scrubbed. The
past several months tents have been
furled for the morning to allow New
Mexican sunshine a chance at cleans
ing the furnishings of every tented
home. Another order recently out
closes the drill period On Friday af-
ternoons at 800 insteadl of 4:30 to
give men chance to bathe and wash
clothes. It is to be gofd health and
lots of it to the men of this camp.
I am at liberty to tell you some
thing of our going. Strict orders from
the war department forbid mention
in soldiers letters of movements of
troops, time of departure, routes tax
en-, probable arrival at diff erent sta
tions, names of boats, dates of sail
ing and otherwise, which is as it
should be- But the censor ship rules
are lifted in this special case and by
authority of General Runner I am
privileged to divulge as follows: More
than a month past, tae sure-thing
soldiers, the fellows who Tull you off

Diego which say trannporss in the
harbor there are awaiting US. Anoth

Siberia. Another day a.ld we are as
sured we are going to France imme

greatest wonder! ! Best of all, thi!

news: The 68th brigade consisting O.

"do time" at the contact camp where
special treatment soon cures NJ n OF
his offense.
Recently it came our turn to be
cultured" as has every organization
in the division, for mening tits car
riers. 1t was long and sorrowing
line that presented itself at the base
hospital laboratory. Soldiers who had
been previously examined had told
narrowing tales of the torturing op-
Grafton and our men were keen with
excitement, but not with any joyous
anticipation. The line soon started its
way to the chamber of horrors, which
was a side room to the laboratory,
properly shelved and furnished with
glass doored cabinets. In the shelves
and in the cabinets were neaped flat
glass receptacles with covers. In one
corner a surgeon checked in each ar
rival and gave him number. AS
he got his number, the victim seated
himself before another doctor, draped
with a white apron, and masked to
his eyes with pad of white "some-
thing.'' Behind him on a table was
stack of thin wood paddles, such
as doctor uses to hold DOWN i1op-
ping tongue as he examin IS throat.
Alongside were rolled pae kages which
opened to show lay-o ut Of glass
tubes, like test tubes, the lower end
tapered and covered with dab OF
cotton. A wire with finger loop
at the upper end showed thru the
glass. The operation was in itself
simple, but it looked bad enough from
the sideline. Sitting down before the
masked doctor, a man opened his
mouth, was told to blat lamb-like

harvest season, men will be furloughed
for 80 days, by companies or sections
Of companies under command Of Off
GERS to go to needy fields and garner

will Immediately be shipped across
and shall march at once to Berlin.
Other soldiers who are usually reli-
able declare with positive conviction
that they have it from friends at Di-
vision headquarters that we are to
stay in this camp. Some one is thus
taking the joy out of life. We believe
them all, these bits of truthful in
formation, especially the latter report.
Company L is losing several men
constantly by transfers. Some Of
them are within the regiment. Last
week Corp. Louis Martinson was
transferred to headquarters company
and make a sergeant. Harry Cain and
James Thompson and Albert How
ard have gone to the same company
and into the mounted orderly section.
Six men, Klein, Stewart, Gibson, Lam
des, Okins. Mellen and Goudy were
requisitioned by the machine gun
company and moved thereto, or will
be as soon as the quarantine lifts.
Six others, Petersen, Fahey, Thin
sen, Cacek, Dobberstein and Corey
have been ordered for transfer "some-
where" in somewhere else" out of
this division. Today came summons
for three others, Homsey, Picciani
and Shelton. Nowadays the army is
doing away with asking for volun-
teers for different kinds of work. Such
a policy has caused confusion and de-
lay. The division has an organiza.
ton known as the Personnel Office
This office incidentally handled the
campaign for insurance and the pa
pers on allotments and takes care Of
all other regular reports. The big
function of this office is to list every
man in this division, classify him b!
ancestry, by brief personal history
by occupations in civil life, and par
ticular abilities. Every man has hi
own card chucked away safely ant
within easy reach in the big filing
cabinets at this office. If the remoun
depot needs horse-shoersl and need
them badly, some clerk at the Per
, sonnel office by their system OF in
