KEYSTONE SOLDIERS
HEADED FOR FRANCE
Activity at Hancock Indicates
Departure Before Long
for Front

CAMP HANCOCK. Augusta, Ga.
Jan. II.
After sixteen weeks OF training the
men of the Twenty eighth Division are
expecting movement of the division to
France in the early spring and anticipate
that the full schedule will be carried
out, somewhere in Europe"
While nothing is known of a move
nient at division headquarters, every
day brings in some report OF an
anticipated departure of the division. II
Is believed by some that the very best
possible thing to restore esprit de corps
to its highest pointSwould be a move
ment to France. The report that the
division was to be held in the United
states and returned to guard duty has
lost force and the feeling prevails that
tbe Pennsylvania boys are headed
straight for active service.
The placing Of Major General Charles
n. Muir in command of the division
mas led many of the officers to the con-
eiusion that rapid preparation for the
neld Is desired. 1t Is recognized that
MS talents recoslmend him highly for
the task Of welding the organization into
. cohesive whole.
Oficers say that the War Department
would not allow man of his ability
TO stay with an outfit which was not
wanted in the field.
II has been stated that the War
Department In picking division COM
manders seized upon the strongest man
at hand to undertake the task Of bring
ing back life to the men and Of restor-
ing confidence in their organization.
MS sterling qualities as n soldier COM
mand the most lavish esteem from all
OF the subordinates and the enlisted per-
sonnel speak Of him as some general"
The troops have been displaying a
wonderful spirit during the last few
weeks. The campIha been kept in the
most orderly fashion. while every man
shows a disposition to be ION his toes"
4 all the time.
a military funeral will be held here
