Extensive experience in the trenches

lack Of cleanliness of the feet Is an inn

Moisture and overnight shoes are also
contributing causes In bad cases there
has been found "A fungus similar to the
mold which sometimes grows on meat
and bread
Washing the feet with borated cam

and dry are necessary aids to recovery.
The alternate hot and cold foot bath
is Of great service in restoring the VII

The mold referred to abounds IN

men and those who work in stables
should take care to wash their feet sew

There IS no one beside thee and no Cne

love thee.

ures of the number of games played

show that volley ball is the most pop

There was a time when baseball was
the most popular sport in the camps,

three times as popular as any other
game, but in the following month the
newly introduced game Of yolley ball
was taken by the soldiers with the
greatest Of enthusiasm and the report
OF the physical directors in the camps
Of the southeastern department show
that, commencing with the month OF
April, volley ball has easily held frst
place as the most popular sport with
the soldiers.
This is very easily understood when
il is explained that volley ball can be
played in q very small space about
the sire % tennis court. The sol
diers with little practice can become
quite expert in the game, Another fsar
ture Is that all OF the players on both
sides are playing the entire time, (ne

not much longer than the average
