at Army Camp

* Camp Travis, Tex, May 29.--When
the soldier boys Evelyn Mae sends
him cake and a shoe-box of fudge,
why, of course, he has to write her
and tell her how "dee-lucious" it was
What he doesn't tell her it that the
cake got mashed in transit and he
mad to bury it in rne garbage can
Nor does he mention the fact that
the candy went astray because the
address was faulty, and the sweets
poor little Evelyn Mac labored over
were dusty dry before they reached
her correspondent
The fact is that the postal service
OF Camp Travis is cluttered up with
ill-packed, ill-addressed, ill-chosen and
generally unnecessary parcels of food
intended for body of men who, even
il the parcels never arrived at all,
would be one of the best fed bodies
of men in the country The ration
is a balanced one, every component
that is required to make the meals
nourishing and appetizing being pro
vided Fruits and vegetables find
their place on the menu in season.
The men do not need food from home.
When it comes, if it is still in edible
condition, the entire assemblage IN
the barracks OF the recipient assist
him in slowing it away, and box
that took long hours of thought and
preparation disappears in five or ten
minutes.
For those who have a sweet tooth
and desire dainties between meals
the regimental exchanges are within
a hundred yards or so of the farth
est barracks, and for a few cents the
soldier can fill up on ice cream o.
candy or other gimcracks. Quarter
pound cakes in sanitary oiled paper
may be obtained there also, IS vel
as fruit of all kinds. The ice cream
is produced at a factory that has com
piled with sanitary regulations of tht
army. The same is true of the can
dy, and the cakes even bear a ere
lease date" after which they are nj
longer to be considered fresh an
may not thereafter be sold Although
these cakes contain no wheat flour
the substitutes are so cleverly blend
ed that the substitution cannot b
detected. All things considered
therefore. if Evelyn Mae wants Pr
vate Oswald to have more goodie:
she would do far better to send hir
the money to get them here in cam
where they are fresh. than to shi
them to him in a fragile hat box o
similar container But even ther

for him anyhow.

lage Of Cantigny penetrated the enc
my'a second line and occupied the
German positions on front OF more
than a mile, all in forty,flye minutes.
!. The attack followed violent artll-
lery preparations. The Americans
charged across half a mile of No
Mans Land, capturing German ma
chine gun position in ten minutes by
the use Of hand grenades.
French tanks simultaneously de.
stroyed machine gun nests along the
Grievesnes road northwest Of Can
dgny.
The Americans captured houses and
villages and finally stormed the cha
teau. They captured 1872 prisoners,
including five officers
News by field telephone that Can.
tigny had been captured was received
at American headquarters. Cantlg.
ny is known as one Of the most i'm
portant towns on the Amiens front.
The taking OF it was the biggest
American victory TO date.
Big cellars in Cantigny, capable
OF housing a hundred troops, were
smashed by the American artillery.
Hand to hand fighting proved that
the Americans are masters of the
bayonet
French officers gave high praise to
the spirit Of the American offensive.
The first question asked by the Amer
lean wounded on arriving at the hos
pitfalls was when would they be able
to return to the front.
