PRESBYTERIAN MEMS BIBLE
CLASS HAVE A STRICTLY
MILITARY PICNIC

The western Union" sent out mil
itary messages the past week to all
members of the Mems Bible class of
the First Presbyterian church. notify
ing them that they had suddenly been
drafted, and were to appear without
fail at the corner of Fourth and Grant
streets, Wednesday evening. The call
included men between the ages of Is
and 81, about one hundred respond
ing. Procession for camp started
promptly at $50 o'clock, and the
Transportation department and Motor
Truck company were in charge of
getting the troops to the camp located
on the yellow Banks" a beautiful
spot on the Wisconsin river, north of
the city. After everything was in
readiness at camp, mess call was
sounded, and it is unnecessary to say
that the new recruits had already
learned that much of military life, as
all were on the job. We understand
they were thankful for American ra-
tions. A bulletin on war foods had
been conspicuously arranged by the
Food Administrator, where the re-
cruits could easily see same, which
compelled them to live strictly up to
the food rules, "clean plates" no over
eating, etc.
Loyalty was the password for en-
trance to the camp, and had allusion
to their church as we'll as to their
country.
The Recreation department had
charge of entertainment at camp, and
an unusually interesting game of base
ball proved great sport to the recruits.
TWO teams were selected to play a
good fast game. 1t kept the score
keepers busy watching and marking
down the wonderful scores made. Be-
cause of darkness creeping on, the
umpire found it necessary to stop
the players from going further at the
close OF the seventeenth inning, at
which time the score was 27 to 25.
from the results all will readily see
what very close game was played,
and the team having the highest
figure won the evenings game. All
the recruits took part in the game as
though they had had considerable ex-
perience before entraining for camp,
and although the fighting was intense
at times, nothing serious has been re-
ported, and the casualty list has been
watched closely.
Before detraining, the recruits tried
their strength in a free-for-all tug
of-war. The members in camp were
evenly divided into North and South
teams. During the first stages of this
struggle it looked very much as
though the Northerners were coming
out ahead, but very soon the South
called on their reserve forces in the
rear, and with their help, came out
victorious.
H. S. Wright, furnished victrola
music, and patriotic songs were sung
under the direction of C. F. Woodward
Ihe music helped the recruits greatly
IN not getting home-sick feeling,
ana good spirit was kept up all the
while they were in camp.

Lots $50 and up

Bear in mind that previous to this
sale these lots were never offered at
less than $3.50 and $500 each. They
were worth it then. They are worth
it now. You never had such an OPP
portunity for investment, and you
have it right here at home in one of
the best cities in the United States,
where you know real estate must in
crease in value, and especially such
as what we are offering.
Close to the center of the city, to
the street railway, schools, churches
and well built up residence district,
and within three blocks of the big
new factory of the Gaylord Paper
Products Co., which it is expected
will begin operations next week, and
which is destined to become one of
the largest employers of labor in the
city. Other factories and mills are
close by.
All we ask is that you investigate.
Look over the lots, note the prices,
note the location, the splendid view
.nd the excellence of the lots them
selves, their desirability, and if you
decide that this is not the greatest
opportunity you ever had to make
money on a real estate transaction,
then do not buy.
