 In several Arkansas newspa- pers we note the boys in writing home of their trip to Camp Dix mentioned passing through Washington and being served at the Red Cross canteen by Miss Margaret Woodrow Wilson, daughter of President Wilson. Here is an extract from a letter received by Chas. Kurtzhalz, general Camp secretary, from Miss Wilson: T assure you that our visit to Camp Pike was one of the very happiest of all. The other day, down at the Red Cross canteen at Washington where l was dipping out coffee. 1 saw again many of the Camp Pike men who were there when 1 was there Some of them recognized me, and they did say such lovely appreclatiye things. Bless the hearts of our men. They are certainly true and fine and won derfully inspiring

Camp Pike Notes

It is announced that no civil ians will be admitted to the, July class of the officers central infan try training school which begins at Camp Pike today. The class will consist of some 1 ,000 enlist ed men from various camps throughout this part of the coun try. That civilians will be admit ted to the August class is now fully expected but the conditions governing admission have not been so far announced. It is ex- pected that the training school for officers will be continuous and that about 600 officers will be graduated each month. The present class of student officers includes some POO negroes and P colored lieutenantS from Camp Dodge, Ia.
 Now that the June draft men of this camp are out of quaran tine, they will begin to feel some of the effects of soldering in real earnest. They have fairly easy time of it while they were getting their typhoid shots and smallpox vaccination, but we suspect some of the fellows fail ed to appreciate it. They will from now on. Many of them spent those first two weeks wheeling rock and policing the barracks area and the con stant cry was T didn't join the army to be day laborer." Now that the day is approaching when they will make the ac- c quaintance of the rife range and the bayonet dummy, they will find opt just why they are in the army.
 The Army Y. M. c. A. at Camp Pike only fell short of the half million mark few thou 
 sand in two lines in June; at tendance at the buildings and programs, audfn the number of envelopes given away free to the enlisted men. There was a sub stantiai increase in the work in every department More men at
 tended the religious services, more stamps were sold, more
 money orders were issued, more
 books were taken from the Ii
 braries. more men are taking an interest in some form of athlet- ics, than during previous months. l Iune was high water mark in the "" buildings but July al. ready gives evidence of surpass ing it.
 Word comes from the east that the soldiers who have been recently transferred from Camp Pike to Camp Dix. New Jersey. are already making a name for themselves in all departments of army work "" secretaries who accompanied the troop trains on their Eastern trip and visited with them at Camp Dix, say that no one ever need make apologies for Camp Pike for it has fully measured up to the eastern standards in every in stance The spirit of the men. the thOrOughneSs of their train ing. their moral standards, and their conduct in general. has re hect4d great credit upon their officers and upon the Red Tri- angle secretaries, who have played no small part in this mat ter of preparation. When Chap lain Reeves was asked how Camp Pike succeeded in turning out such fine bunch of men, he replied, Catch them young and then train them up the way they should go.

 The Russian told pitiful story of ill treatment and suffering. They had to subsist, under German regulations, on half-a-pound of bread and some grass soup daily.

length of time Soldiers and sailors who
