Camp Cody, New Mexico,
March % 1913

Marcn ~, 1915.
Today we've real rain, almost as
severe as Minnesota drizzle. 1t was
welcome not only as an unusual phe-
nomena, but as sufficient cause to
break up the days work out on the
drill grounds.
This week through the good will
of the censor, | am able to announce
a change in the plans of General Ru-
NOR relative to the disposition of this
division. 1t is reported that we shall
not go to Fort Smelling and there
from be distributed to aid garnering
the Minnesota harvests. Instead we
shall be stretched along the border
line in the Big Bend district of Texas
and be interned-or interred-there
for the balance of the war, for patrol
duty. (This to be continued in our
next letter.)
George Clark spent few days at
Deming and Camp Cody the past
week visiting his son, Mechanic Lis
lie Clark, of the Company.
Sheriff and Mrs. Hassenstab ar
rived Saturday for brief visit with
their son, Corporal Walter Hassen-
stab. These two Redwood people
were most welcome visitors; it would
certainly meet with our approval if
before the spring plowin' and house
cleanin' began many Redwood friends
could make the trip to Camp Cody.
Sheriff Hassenstab came this way in
line of duty, on a mysterious journey
some place about 200 miles from here
to take charge of prisoner wanted
in Minnesota.
Pvt. Anders Johnson is discharged
this week on the application of his
s,parents, reason being that he enlisted
~.,.rlder the lawful age of II years.
Through a dividend returned to the
Company out of the profits of the
Regimental Exchange, the purchase
of athletic equipment has been made
possible. Captain Clement has in
cluded in his order, three soccer foot
balls, three volley ball outfits, one
dozen playground balls, several sets
of boxing gloves, basket balls, base
balls and bats, and medicine ball.
Under the direction of Sergt Chaun-
cey Welch, basket ball court has
been laid out in the company street
and the devotees of the game are
busy with practice during off-work
hours. One volley ball court has been
in the street for some time and prob
ably other courts will be set up
There is constant evidence in the u.s.
ual crowds that play on these courts
and other companies in the regi-
ment are likewise equipping them
selves-that athletics and games are
mighty essential in helping men in
the army to keep themselves con-
tented.
Letters from home still speak OF
the cold of winter prolonged into this
spring month of March. Down here
for six weeks men have been both

Save or Fail
Says Straus
NEW YORK FINANCIER WRITES
OF CTER-BUILDING-
SAVING IN MAGAZINE

How many of us give thought to
the character-b building, spine -stiffen-
ing value of Liberty Bond or a
Thrift stamp?
Generally speaking, the man or
woman who cannot save money is a
failure, and those who can save are
successes.
Thrift is an insurance policy
against utter failure and the process
of saving is generally of more real
value to the individual than the
amount saved. If thrift meant mere
ly saving money, Benjamin Franklin
would have gone down in history as
a successful miser, and Lincoln and
Gladstone would have borne the stig-
ma that comes to the avaricious man.
When you buy Liberty Bond or
a Thrift stamp, you are making your
self part of one of the most colossal
movements for the benefit of man
kind since the dawn of history, and
quietly, modestly, assuredly you also
are developing within yourself
strength of character that has not
been yours before.

Golden Wedding
IS Celebrated
MR.. AND MRS. DAVID WHITTET
HONORED BY FRIENDS
LAST FRIDAY

Mr.. and Mrs. David Whittet, two
Redwood Falls residents whom their
friends and neighbors delight to honA
or, were guests of the members of
the Methodist Church, friends and
relatives at a dinner and reception
at the church last Friday afternoon,
the occasion being their fiftieth we'd
ding anniversary. The event was a
surprise to Mr.. and Mrs. Whittet
and all the more enjoyable for that
reason.
Dinner was served by the Country
Ladies Aid of the Church to hun
dred and fifty guests including the
relatives, the older members of the
church who have been associated with
Mr.. and Mrs. Whittet for many
years, and a few outside friends.
The Whittet relationship is in itself
very large and twenty-six members
of the family were seated at one
table during the dinner. All the chill
dren of Mr.. and Mrs. Whittet were
present except one daughter, Mrs.
Bergan of California, who was un-
able to be present. The out-of-town
guests included Mrs. Striegel, a sis
ter of Mr.. Whittet from Wisconsin,
and VIM. Whittet, a son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Whittet from Milaca, MINI.
The tables were appropriately deco
rated with yellow jonquils, several
dozen of which were used in low vases
and gave very festive touch to the
tables. An elaborate two course menu
was served. Following the dinner a
short musical program was given
with several readings. Following this
program DR.. E. C. Horn, pastor OF
the church, made a short address
closing with a few words of presen-
tation which gave Mrs. Whittet q
gold brooch and Mr.. Whittet pail
Of gold cuff links as a symbol of the
esteem in which they are held by
the people of the church and of the
community.
Practically all of the married life
of Mr.. and Mrs. Whittet has beer
spent in Redwood Falls and vicinity
| where they are among the most re-
spected of the citizens of the county
It is hoped that they may continue
to reside here until their friends car
meet to help them celbrate their dia
mond anniversary, twenty-five years
from now-and a good many year.

Proclamation

Conforming to the wishes of the
Federal Food Administration in it's
program for saving wastes and to
increase food production, especially
those calculated to save red meats
for our soldiers and our associates
in the war, | hereby call upon the
citizens of Redwood Falls to assist
in carrying out this program by keep
ing small flock of laying hens in
the back lot to convert the wastes
of the kitchen and table into valu-
able food products. It is authora-
tivelya stated tina. from two to three
hens to each members of the family,
well cared for in the back yard, will
supply the household with fresh eggs
and materially reduce the cost of liv-
ing. Where conveniences permit,
limited number of chicks may also
be raised to further supply the table
with the best of meats and to, re-
place the flock at end of the season.
In time of Peace, poultry keeping
in cities may be regarded as profit
able recreation. In time Of War,
patriotic necessity.

sion is conceivable. These are the
ends for which the associated peoples
ief the world are fighting and which

The Terms Of Peace.
i. The destruction Of every arbitrary
secretly and Of its single choice dis
,,turb the peace Of the world, or, II 1t
cannot be presently destroyed, at least
its reduction to virtual impotence.
II. The settlement Of every question,
whether of territory, of sovereignty,
of economic arrangement or Of politi-
cal relationship, upon the basis Of the
free acceptance of that settlement by
the people Immediately concerned, and
not upon the basis of the material In
lterest or advantage Of any other ma
ton or people which may desire q DIFF
ferent settlement for the sake OF Its
own exterior influence or mastery.
III. The consent OF all nations to be
governed In their conduct towards each
other by the same principles Of honor
and Of respect for the common law OF
civilized society that govern the indi-
Ividual citizens OF all modern states In
their relations with n another. to the
end that all promises and covenants
may be sacredly observed, no private
plots or conspiracies hatched. no selfish
injuries wrought with impunity and a
mutual trust established upon the
handsome foundation Of q mutual re-
spect for right.
w. The establishment Of an organi-
zation OF peace which shall make It
certain that the combined power of
free nations will check every invasion
of right and serve TO make peace and
Justice the more secure by affording a
definite tribunal Of opinion TO which
Ill must submit and by which every
International readjustment that can
hOt be amicably agreed upon By the
peoples directly concerned shall DO
sanctioned.
