CAMP HARDING BEGINS
ITS FINAL ENROLMENT
Eligible Boys Desiring Period of
Training Invited to Make Ap-
plicaticn at Once,

Camp Harding. the boys training
camp on Conduit road near the Dis
trict line. has started its final en-
ro,lment of boys for the camp. which
will close September II. Capt. H
d. F. Long. in charge. states that
eligible boys between the ages of
twelve and seventeen years will be
admitted for camp training for one
week or more.
Already there are between thirty
and forty boys who have been COM
bining the advantages of military
camp training with a pleasant vaca-
tion on the heights of the Potomac.
1t is specially desired to increase this
the'next few days. and to have that
hundred remain. if possible, for the
entire time until the camp closes.
While much may be gained in health
and in general training by a weeks
stay. full and lasting benefits gen.
orally require a longer time, The
camp is equipped with showers and
baths. and has the advantage denied
many in being supplied With Potomac
water. through the regular city serv-
ice, as well as the best Of sewerage
The tents are pitched on the border
of a grove of tall shade trees and
the camp grounds are clean and in
excellent condition for drills and the
sports which form part of it's
course.
During the past week the boys
have become deeply Interested in
war games" making their own maps
and under competent instructors,
planning and 'afterward fighting real
battles-but without powder and
shells.
Health conditions at the camp have
been excellent. and since the opening
days there have been no mishaps to
mar the pleasure of the BOYS.

The Two Cars

l have two cars that keep me
broke one is a gem, and one a
joke. One cost enough to buy a
farm, and it is but a false alarm.
A modern wagon, fine and fair,
with all the modern doodads
there it CLEANS and glitters in
the sun, but, ah, the blamed
thing will not run. 1t will not
spin, it will not toll; its cylin-
ders are pumping oil, it will not
start unless it's primed, the
timers wrong when it is timed,
and if along the road it swings,
it's always breaking costly
springs. My other car is red
with rust, but, gee, she. surely
throws the dust! She clanks
and rattles when she runs, her
pistons sound like sawed-off
guns, but when l hand her out
the gas, you'll have to hump if
you would pass. She looks as
though she'd fall apart the next
time she is asked to Start, but
when l back her from the shed
she fairly pants to surge ahead !;
month after month she snorts
along, with nothing broken,
nothing wrong. And l remark
to my, nine sons, "The good car
is the car that runs. The auto
men talk wildly we'll, they try
to blind us with a spell; their
cars have this, and that. and
which, and all re6nements rare
and rich, with mirrored doors
and baggage racks-but when
we get right down to tacks, to
chewing gum and hot cross
buns, the good car is the car
that runs" WALT MASON.
