A SONG FROM THE CAMrS

(By Florence Scollard Brown Of The
Vigilantes.)
MANY of the enlisted boys are eager
to get over to France.)
We want to get over to fighting and
France;
We're keen to get over the cause to
advance
OF Freedom, Protection and Justice
for all;
Aye, comrades, We'll follow you close
to the wall
OF the trenches that held the barbar-
ians back;
Then down with the Boches, and hard
on their track!
Brave hearts, you are weary Of bear
ing the brunt;
We're coming, we're coming right up
to the front!
We're coming,-we know there Is
plenty to learn;
We may blunder at first, but our spir-
it's will burn
With the ardors of Concord that mem
DRY wakes;
Well stand with our brothers across
the Great Lakes
When we once step in place, when we
once get in poise;
We're coming, we're coming! Look
out for the boys!

SOME INCOME TAXPAYERS
oVERPAY THEIR AMOUNT

Washington, March 6.-What is
the government to do with taxpay-
er who overpays his income tax and
refuses to accept a refund? That is
the problem which confronts the Blu
reau of Internal Revenue. Several
such instances have come to the at
tention of the bureau through col
lectors of internal revenue. One
man in California overpaid his tax
and when reminded of it said he
didn't want it back because "it was
in a d good cause and | hope
they kill the Kaiser" Another man
in Kansas paid S48 more than his
due. The collector wrote to him
twice about it and the last time re-
ceived from the taxpayer a letter
stating that he didn't want to be
bothered about these small amounts.
and wanted the government to buy
ammunition with it. He also ex-
pressed a hope for the Kaiser's sud.
den demise.
The Bureau of Internal Revenue,
with the approval of the Secretary
of the Treasury, has extended the
time for filing income and excess
profit returns from March l to
April /.
Taxpayers, however, are urged
not to put off this important duty, as
to delay until after April / renders
the delinquent subject to a fine of not
less than 500, nor more than $1,000
and an additional assessment Of so
per cent of the amount due.

Motorcycle Riders Preparing
For Hazardous Tasks in War

Jacksonville, March 6.-Probably
the most romantic of the various
units under command of Colonel T.
L. Munson is the Camp Johnston mot
orcycle division 'Tis unusual in a
staff organization, but Colonel Mum
son, realizing that the cyclists could
render invaluable and while studying
at the camp, as we'll as to give their
services in France after having re-
ceived training, planned the school.
The motorcycle division, under d.
rect command Of Captain H. Diffen-
baugh, trains men to serve as dis
patch riders at the front "A man Sc
lected for the training receives ten
primary lessons, which include riding
motorcycle and a thorough knowl-
edge of its parts. He then Is in
structed further in the mechanical
and shop work until such time as he
is sent lover there" to take his place
in the ranks of those whose work is
recognized as most hazardous.
Shop work includes assembly of a
motorcycle that has been taken down
, to the last screw. Each student must
assemble machine and ability to do
this demonstrates thorough knowl
edge of all the component parts The
+, shop is we'll equipped, and includes
/ "cross-section" full-sized models of
the two makes of motorcycles sup
piled to Camp Johnson men. These
models are motorcycles that appear
to have been split in two with a buzz
saw and show the interior of the cy-
climber, crank and cam shafts, carbu-
rotor, etc. Small working models of
various parts also are used.
At present, the camp has go motor
cycles, both solo machines and those
with side-cars. Sixty men now are
taking the course of instruction.
Two classes with total personnel of
J IA men recently were graduated
The cycles at Camp Johnston are
used as are the automobiles of the
motor car division for conveying dis
patches about camp, and for trans
portation Of officers from one point
to another. They are in constant de-
mand.
A motorcycle is capable of attain
ing speed in excess of rs miles an
hour but those with side-cars will
tend to leave the road, when travel
ing faster than 80 miles an hour.
Both experienced riders and men
who never straddled a motorcycle be-
fore enlistment are trained at Camp
Johnston, and often 1t is found that
the "greenhorn" makes better rider
than men used to the machines. The
camp parade ground Is used for first
training as spills" are likely to oc-
cur.
Before being sent to France, the
graduates Of the school are examined
to see If they are subject to she'll
shock, and those who are are as
signed to duties other than dispatch
riding.
The motorcycle division does not
depend on the spare parts organiza-
ton for repair parts or mechanics.
It's equipment is kept in a high state
of repair by the men themselvs, and
the percentage of deterioration of the
two-wheeled mounts is very low.
