 It would be a fine thing if ev- eryone in the state could visit Camp Pike. 1 believe that it is really worth a considerable sac. rifice to come even though you may have no relatives here, or do not expect to have. It really does not give much idea of the place to say that there are more than a thousand buildings or that so many tons of nails, or so many million feet Lf lumber were used. Even a statement that there are 50,000 men can't convey the real spirit of the camp.
