County Conference of Congregation.
alistS.

One of a series of so-called ere
treats" to be conducted throughout
the state in the interests of the evan
gelism among the Congre egational
churches will be held at Newport on
February z under the leadership of
Rev. L. A Edwards.
All the Congregational pastors of
the vicinity are expected to attend
this meeting and it is believed that
the interest thus aroused and the CO.
operation begun will result in the in
vigoration of the churches and in
marked increase Of membership. The
movement is part of a nationwide
concerted effort among the Congrega-
tional churches to secure an increase
of at least 100000 new members by
the end of 1920.
Rev. G. G. Merrill will be a speak
er at the conference and a very prac-
tical program is planned.

built network of tracks all over the
camp, making it possible to give
prompt service. Then, too, Colgate
creek, which bounds the camp on the
south east side is being dredged and
docks are being built to enable
trelghters to come right up to our
back door.
One Of the biggest problems uncle
has had to deal with was the roads.
Owing to the marshy nature of tie
soil something had to be done to build
a road that would stand the continual
hammering of the Army motor
trucks. 1t took several costly ex-
periments to discover the right ma
terial; but, today we can boast of the
finest highways in the country.
1t is hard to realize how fast this
camp has grown from a few Negro
shacks to one of the finest and best
equipped motor car shops in the Unit
ed States if not in the world. The
Motor Transport Corps as well as this
camp will remain permanent and one
would think to peep into our little
city that Uncle Sam was still in the
war game, from the way things are
booming, instead of preparing for
peace.
The fate of the Motor Transport
Corps at Camp Holabird has been an
unlucky one, for comparatively few
of US have been sent overseas to
share in the glory which the return
ing heroes will be given when they
are marched through the street of
their home town. Ours has. been
the steady grind from morning un-
til night, not eight hours a day as
some think, but twelve, including
Sundays, then to make everything as
comfortable as possible some soldier
from another branch of service often
takes the joy out of life by saying,
stead of the NJ T. G. ?" or "Tell your
mother to take down her service flag,
you are not in the army yet"
The following is an extract from
the Baltimore Evening Star:
"The Motor Transport soldier de-
serves a well-earned tribute. In this
service the men of higb~cfass pay
labored in the same grease and CRIME
for the government pay check. he
had none of the glory of war. 1t was
not his lot to meet the Hun on No
Mans Land. His was the sordid work
but each of them shouldered their
burdens and when the history of this
war is finally written, the work Oh
the Motor Transport men will occupy
a large share. and he too, shares In
the glory of the victory that the mo-
biIity of movement provided through
his work made possible infantry ana
artillery action a final success"
