Facts About the Army

The army not only offers but en-
courages all kinds of clean and
healthful sports and other means of
recreation by which soldiers may
enjoy their many leasure hours. Each
company has its own amusement
room where the soldiers may play
billiards and pool, chess, checkers
and in fact almost every game of
any consequence, and these rooms
are supplied with newspapers and
various magazines. Nearly all of the
companies have libraries, where the
latest books may be obtained, and
most of them are provided with
monographs or player pianos and
in many cases with both. There is
also the post library, where the SOL
der has free access to newspapers,
magazines and books of history,
travel, fiction, science, etc.
In the way Of outdoor sports the
separate organizations and posts
have their baseball and football
teams. Great rivalry prevails be-
tween the divisional, regimental and
company teams, and many spirited
contests are played, not only among
themselves, but also with civilian
teams. 1t is not uncommon for mill
tary teams to visit distant towns and
some times take lengthy trips for
the purpose of taking part in the diff
ferent annual tournaments and field
meets.
During the winter, or closed sea-
son of the year, indoor meets are
held in the gymnasium. These in
clude basketball and indoor base
ball games, club swinging, work on
the parallel and horizontal bars, bag
punching, bayonet combat, dis
mounted workmanship, and many
other events too numerous to men
ton There are also moving picture
exhibitions, theatrical entertain
ments, band concerts and roller
skating. Nearly every post Is equip
ped with bowling alleys, and clubs
are formed between the various COM
panies, as we'll as between squads of
the same company, and series of
6duCS dIO pldyCu. ApPUl Iva
outdoor sports and gymnasium work
are furnished without cost and as
entertainments are often given by
the different ladies' clubs and or
CARNATIONS, either at the camp or
post amusement halls, or at the
soldiers and sailors clubs which
are maintained in nearly all large
cities, there is little or no need for
a soldier to. be without amusement
J There are also rifle teams which take
part in nearly all Of the large shoot
ing matches, and for which men are
picked from among those showing
the most skill.
A very liberal policy is pursued
1 in the army in granting furloughs
+ to enlisted men. In cases of emery.
ency, where his presence is needed
at home, or after he has served q
year, provided that his conduct has
been good, he will have no trouble
in obtaining the desired furlough
with full pay allowances. Leaves Of
absence or short passes for few
days are not difficult to obtain.

BORAH WILL TRAIL
AND ANSWER WILSON
Idaho Senator Will Reply to Presi-
dent in Each City Latter Speaks
ON League of Nations

WASHINGTON, D. Senator
Borah will trail President Wilson
when the chief executive returns
from Europe and tours the country
in behalf of the league Of nations.
The senator is planning to make a
reply to every speech of the presi-
dent in every city where Mr.. Wilson
stops.
This is not a voluntary trip on the
part of the senator, but will be made
in response to urgent invitations
from citizens of each city on the
presidents itinerary, as far as that
has been made public. These invita-
lions almost uniformly indicate that
people will not be content to hear
only the presidents side of the
league issue.
