FRANKLIN CANTONMENT

nent tank camp. The decision was
reached after very careful considera-
tion of large number of prospective
sites Franklin is especially well
equipped for a special branch of the
service such as the Tank Corps. Be-
ing originally planned and built for the
field signal service, it's barracks are
smaller and more compact and honey
and better built than the average can
tonment barrack
The plumbing is up to the minute
in every detail, and affords as nearly

BILE I'm a camp. The drainage is the
best that can be found anywhere.
Sewers are installed throughout the
camp and two main concrete highways
traverse the camp throughout it's en-
tire length. AS the barracks are mod
crate in size. so also is the camp. 1t
appeals to one not as the ordinary ex-
tended cantonment. but as more
communicable group of buildings.
The barracks are all placed between
the main concreted highways, while
the workshops and railway sidings are
entirely outside the barrack blocks.
The camp has Sthe best in theatrical
facilities, owned by the government,
with the usual hut and an excellent
dance and indoor game hall, besides
company recreation rooms with pianos
and games. 1t is stated billiards will
soon be Installed.
Its Location within twenty miles of
Washington and Baltimore places it in
the midst of national and metropolitan
activities. Half hourly traction serv-
ice and frequent steam trains bring
the camp to within few minutes ride
of either of these important cities. An
napolis, with it's well known military
academy, is still nearer. The sur
roundings are thus of immense his
toric interest. Short rides enable the
tankers to visit many of the most
noted landmarks of the nation.
At present some 80 per cent of the
tankers are out on the victory loan
drive. Tanks have been sent to all the
important financial centers and from
.lere will be distributed for demon
strations during the loan drive, to al
most every accessible district as far
as time will allow The tankers have
gone out as crews for the operation of
the tanks.
There are at present only 5000 tank
ers left in Camp Franklin, but new
battalions are frequently coming and
officers are arriving daily.
The 302d Tank Center is expected
from an Atlantic port at any time. This
unit consists of seventeen officers and
ESQ men.
