With the dropping OF Camp Meade
ID the site Of base hospital and the
retaining Of some Of the buildings for
use as camp hospital--that change
taking place probably about the end
Of this month-the present stan will
be reduced to at least half of its pres

centage will prevail among the vo-
cational and educational STATS. Of

positions.
The vulcanizing school will be con-
tinued as long as possible, however,
and will be the last of the shops to

complished in this school, all men who
completed the six-week course being

FRANKLIN TANKERS
PROVE VERSATILITY

Many of our soldiers have cover
ed some" territory since the begin
ming of the war. and Sergt. Frederick
King of the Tank Corps has quite a
record in that respect. Since the day
that Germany started something she
could not finish Sergt. King has
travelled about $4,000 miles.
Originally in the Australian expe-
dictionary forces, he transferred his
airy forces and was sent to this coun-
try, touring Texas in behalf of the
liberty loan fund. His home is in
to be discharged from the Franklin
'tankers'. very shortly intending to
return to the Land of the Kanga-
roo" by the first available steamer.
If he is allowed the rate of cents
per mile from Camp Meade to Mel
bourne, 1t will cost the War Depart
ment tidy sum to ship him home,
and the sergeant should not starve
for month or So. at least.
The first of a series of dances to
be given by the Tank Corps was
held last Friday evening in the Ath-
letic Hall. at Camp Franklin, and
proved a great success. Dancing be-
gan at 7:45 and continued without
abatement until 1890, The War Camp
Community Service of Baltimore sent
out seventy-ive ladies of that city
and. needless to say. they were a big
factor in making the, evening a most
enjoyable one. Chaplain Macarthur
and Sergt. Madison were responsible
for all other arrangements pertain
ing to- the nights entertainment,
which is another way of saying that
everything was all that could be de-
sired.
One of the latest additions to the
equipment of the tankers il a minia-
ture machine shop outfit. mounted on
wheels. It is a remarkably complete
outfit, comprising a lathe. fully
equipped; a drill press. emory
grinder, air hammer and air COM
pressor, ETC., and. in addition. it gem
crates it's own electricity. The ma
chine, which cost small fortune, is
under charge of Sergt. Lee. who is
q master mechanic and a credited
with being able to repair anything
from q collar button to a tank.

ADDRESS BY MAJ. GAINES.
Emphasizes Importance Of Ethics
in Talk ct ~" Auditorium.


Maj Noel Gaines gave an address
last Friday at the ''Y' Auditorium which
was a great inspiration and help to the
many soldiers present and proved that
old Kentucky Is still making good. He
has been q soldier in the last three wars
OF Uncle Sam and surely knows the
"stuff that men are made Of" which
was the subject Of his address, and in
1t he showed how men could honestly
differ in their opinions and yet allow
tolerant spirit to exist between them.
BY his simile OF three-legged stool.
be made clear the necessity of men, and
particularly soldiers, standing on the
tripod Of a sound body, an educated
mind and a clean heart. Calling the
soldiers appearance and his manner. OF
sAluting the "A-B-C" OF military life,
the major acted out his teaching Of the
lesson in foPceful way, and there was
not a man In the hall but got new con-
ception Of how to-salute and what the
salute meant, both In the giving and
in the returning. - n
The major deserved the volume OF APP
plause accorded him at the conclusion of
his address, and the educational depart
ment is to be complimented on securing
such a delightful and instructive lee
turer. a-,is

Of the soldier disabled to such an ex-
tent that he cannot return to his
former employment, nor can he take
up new occupation without training

ernpent should give him sufficient
compensation to live without bother
ing himself about a job for the rest
of his life.
Upon serious thought this same pub
lie will realize that this condemnation
to. such continuous Inactivity is no
kindness to the soldier who has sac

For Those VINO Gave.

Through the wooded depths-in the reedy turn
Where the winds of spring are blowing.
Their crosses wait by the OuReQ and Marne
And on where the Vesle is flowing.
Their rides rust where rank weeds spawn.
And endless night enfolds them,
But peoples fame in the fogs Of dawn
To light the INN that holds them.
BY the Argoune trail their helmets wait
To guard the goal they fought for;
But never q chest shall pass the gate
That leads to the home they sought for.
They gave their ALTO the ilnal debt
On down TO the souls last ember:
And they viii knew II the clans forget
Or whether fAe elnns renenbeF.
