CUT RED TAPE
At TRAINING CAMP
ONLY MOST MEG ESSARl FOR
MALITIES REQUIRED FOR
CAMP GRANT.

Only the most necessary formali-
ties will be required OF candidates for
the Citizens Military Training Camp
at Camp Grant, which opens July 2l
and closes August 20. The War De-
partmcnt has just issued the regula-
tions that will govern and the require
ments are such that any able bodied
young man, of good habits can attend.
This camp will be free in its fullest
sense, the Government paying all eX-
penses going and coming, and will
furnish meals, uniforms, and laundry
while in attendance.
The War Department intends to
show the country at large by actual
example that camp instruction Of the
kind contemplated will be to the
liking of their sons, will develop them
physically, mentally, and morally;
will teach Apprehension in its true
sense, thus stimulating patriotism
and self discipline, resulting in great
er national strength, both civil and
military. The camp will also qualify
young men for service in the reserves.
While the primary motive is to in
still patriotism and love of country,
which means service Of country, am
pie recreation of an entirely health
full and strength building nature is TO
be provided. Outdoor games Of all
kinds are to be arranged and it is
planned to have many competitions
in all the better known sports. With
the Rock river adjacent to camp,
swimming and boating will be mat
ter Of course. Ample provisions viii
be made, and relatives Of the men at
tending camp are urged to make their
sons visit sometime during their
encampment. The idea being to ere
ate and stimulate in the minds OF the
people the need for some form of
voluntary service to the Government,
and at the same time in such man.
ner as to benefit those participating
in a direct and substantial way. No
claim is stronger than its weakest
link, and no country is stronger than
it's citizens. The younger generation
particularly, arc those that show in
their attitude to their Government
the real national strength.
Applications already filed at 1924
Ford Bldg, Detroit, Michigan, indicate
that the allotment for this territory
will soon be exhausted, and that the
plan is a success. Larger camps are
to be planned for the future, that all
who appreciate their duty to them
selves and to the country in which
they live may avail themselves Of the
opportunity to spend 4 month in the
open.

forth with a legion roster tucked
safely in his pocket. However. he
Immediately encountered obstacles.
Although he spared no pains to
plunge into details connected with the
honor OF serving on NJ. p. duty he
could not find any former veterans
who would admit that they had ever
worn the IN. p" shield on their
arms or ever swung a baton. Each

No details and plenty of chow" but
the local veterans shook their heads.
Chief Edwards went back to Legion
Headquarters thoroughly Disguised.
He informed the legion officials that
he would draft a force of M. P.'s IL
he had to use the war veterans on
the police force.
IT will select a special guard of
