WASHINGTON PROGRAM
AT K. OF C. BUILDING

The principal event of the week in the
main building of the Knights of Column
bus on Wrightsboro road was the program
arranged by Fourth Degree Knights Of
Augusta in honor of Washington's birth
dav. This program was similar to ihe
ones arranged in every training camp IN
the United States by the K. OF e. The
r1eetihg was in charge Of Mr.. Victor Dorr
of Augusta, and the principal speaker of
the evening was Hon. Thomas H. Can
non of Chicago. The audience which en-
address all too short. In terse, graphic
manner he outlined the life of the Father
of our Country and pointed out the les
sons to be learned and applied to present
day affairs. He spoke of the duty we all
owe to our country at the present time,
and as a civilian voiced the sentiment Of
the public at large toward the men who
are fighting to make that country safe.
His talk will long be remembered by all
who heard it.
A pleasing musical program was rem
dered by Mrs. S. Sylvester, Sergeant ]. e.
Simkins and Miss Adele Petit. The hall
was finely decorated in the national, col.
ors, the decorating being the work of
Messrs. Herr and Myers of the 103rd Sup
ply Train, who surpassed all the previ-
GUS efforts to make the hall inviting.
On Monday evening, the 112th Infantry
band rendered very pleasing program,
and despite the rainy weather, a large
crowd attended Mr.. John Surra, of the
| band sang several numbers that were
loudly encored. Tuesday evenings pro-
gram was given by the Catholic Ladies
Club of Augusta. in charge of Mrs. Syl-
vester. The club will give several more
entertainments on Tuesday evenings.
The boxing on Thursday night brought
out the usual capacity crowd and proves
the interest the men take in this sport.
The main bout of the evening was be-
tween Victor of the 109th Field Hospital,
and Neuner of the 103rd Supply Train.
Both boys had been successful in their
bouts at the divisional boxing show held
on Wednesday afternoon and gave fine
exhibition of clean boxing. Jackie Clark
Of the 109th Machine Gun Battalion, Wall
of the 111th Ambulance Co.. and Terry
Murphy of the 111th Infantry also ap-
peared in well matched and interesting
bouts A great deal of the credit for the
success of the boxing shows is due to
Mike Keefe, of Company A Military Po-
lice, who acts as matchmaker and ref
cree.
A large amount of mending is being
done each Thursday morning by the
members of the Catholic Ladies c.
Any sewing should be left not later than
Wednesday evening.
During the Lenten season. short SER
vices are conducted on Wednesday and
Sunday evenings. These begin promptly
at 1880 and are over at 8:15, leaving the
rest OF the time free for letter writing
With the coming of warm weather.
plans are being made to arrange the
grounds of the building for athletics. A
| handbaH and tennis court are cont en-
plated in the near future.

OPENING CONCERT AT
TENT NO. 234
(RY mcY.nl

Formal opening of the Y. M. c. A. Tent
No. 234 was held on February 21st, 1918,
and Oh. what a night!
To begin with Mr.. Tracy, Associate
Camp Secretary of the Y. M c. A. at
Camp Hancock, presented the tent to the
boys of the Quartermaster Corps, Ord
nance Depot, Field Bakery, 332nd Truck
Company and the Engineers, and was
given a hearty welcome. Captain Muhl-
homie of the Ordance Depot responded
in few well chosen words of acceptance
and the program of the evening began.
Music was furnished by the 10th Infan-
try band, under the leadership of Serge
ant Don Kimmel and their efforts were
heartily appreciated The Engineers
tried to stop to get their breath-some
iquartet. Luther White of the Engineers
has got some pipes" and from the way
Luther responded, | believe Luther would
be singing yet, had it not been that he
ran out of songs.
The Jazz band of the Ammunition Train
We'll, l must say that they could have
occupied the stage all evening if they
the army. Jazz 'em up. you have 'em
going. Cy Hecker and Artie Jones, the
Ragtime Kings of Hancock, were there,
and you talk about Guide Right, my oh
my. they have line of songs and piano
logues that keep you up and double tim
ing it all the time-sone boys.
Mr., Cooksy of the Engineers deserves
the title of the John Mccormack of Camp
Hancock, for that soldier has some lung
exhaust and judging from what the fell
lows in the tent said about him, he will
soon sing again.
Morrie Bopp of the 111th Field hos
pital, the Honey Boy tenor sang, and
oh boy, but he can wind a long, long
trail" but what's the use of talking much
about him, as he can sure knock 'em off
any time, and then last but not least, Ma
honey, the Irish Senator. Mahoney has
certainly Won a home down here Talk
about an Irishman getting it, Gee, that
guy has already been invited for mess
down here. We don't like to talk about
ourselves but the Quartermaster Corps
certainly showed the folks on the hin
what real concert was Ikea real night
of music and fun and our little Secretary
Bicksler well, Well take care of him
regardless of his size and bow legs Drop
in to see the tent, the next time you are
around, piano and everything.

With the increased amount of trench
digging the mending coming in on Fridays
for the ladies of the city TO sew on has
increased considerably. Still they are al
ways willing to have more. 1t is expect
ed that after the three days hike OF our
regiment that there will be a number OF
shirts that will need a little encourage
ment-so this is the week to have them
fixed up in good shape ready for Satur
day inspection. Bring them in clean by
Friday noon and they will be ready for
you on Friday night after mess.
Secretary Whitney has been with the
10th on their drill field this week assist
ing the officers in the recreational in
struction which is part OF the course OF
training. The men have responded in fine
shape and some excellent results have
thus far been attained
Secretary Machemar (Who is now on his
way home to attend a very serious cere-
mony in which he is to play an important
part) has started three French classes and
is doing fine work in that branch of the
educational department. He is also as
sisting splendidly in the religious work.
Bible classes continue with the success
Of the first few weeks The attendance at
the building very small-but we are
planning for q good week to come and
shall give the men plenty of activities to
keep them busy every evening. When
the weather becomes a little warmer we
are planning to have outdoor boxing and
movies.
Sunday marked the record in the at
tendance at the Company Bible classes.
Company G, 10th Regiment, had ninety
three men in the mess hall at 10 o'clock;
while Company came through at 1910
with one hundred and fourteen men The
interest is increasing and the attendance
is very encouraging to the Y. M. G. A
: 1t is with pleasure that No. 70 welcomes
the Motor Mechanics to this part of camp.
1t surely seems good to see the old cavalry
site covered with khaki.

A tennis club has been formed in this

The Woman Who Changed

BY Jane Phelps

SO" She looked at me sternly.
Eyes, James, you are to take your
orders from MRS. Sexton. She is to all in
tents and purposes the mistress Of this
house. | am mistress only in name"
Then before she could voice her anger
at my speech, L burst into a spasm Of
tears and rushed from the room.
What did I care that the servants
saw that l resented that woman $ auUn-
ority2 1t was better han to let them
thitlk / had calmly consented to be so
put upon. l threw myself across the bed
and hushed my sobs by lying upon my
face. L had not thought to lock the door
and in a moment l heard Mrs. Sections
cold cutting voice.
81 knocked, but evidently you did
not hear. l want you to come downstairs
and apologize to me before your ser
wants AS l made no move to rise, she
went on, 'FUnless you do, l shall leave
this house at once and go to Mr.. How-
ard. And l never shall come into it
again while you are here" then she
left the room.
What should I do9 Although l now
know it was foolish, l was at that time
more than a little afraid of George. If
only the old dinner were over. l felt
that | would rather die than go down
stairs and apologize to that woman; but
L had heard George request her to do
several things that morning, to see the
florist, to attend to the place cards, and
the table decorations. He would be fur
ious if l made it so that she would
not do what he wanted.
L felt that almost anything was pre-
ferable to facing his anger; so | wiped
my eyes and crawled slowly back to the
breakfast room. Mary looked as if she
too, wanted, to cry, and even on James
immobile face | detected a CLINT of sym
pathy. 1t made it easier for me to say:
81 am sorry l spoke SO hastily, Mrs.
Sexton. James and Bridget please both
of you do as Mrs. Sexton asks for THIS
dinner." | purpesely accented the this
to convey the idea that it would be
the only time. I had determined that
it should-that, rather than submit to
her taking my place again, | would go
home.
