ed by and noticing the fine work
Ed had done on the sign, he promp-
thy came in without knocking and
put in his order for one which he
Immediately got. Jim Pangburn
saw the one Jess had and he want
ed one and pretty soon Ed and his
assistants were busily engaged in
making signs for everyone in the
building and now everyone is well
satisfied for the present.
The Regimental Headquarters
Battery baseball team went to Per-
ris yesterday to play a game with
Battery "E' of our own regiment.
The game itself was a tight ball
game all the way through and a
thriller If there ever was one. Co
ing into the last inning our boys
were leading 2 to 1. But the stel-
Ter twirling of Bud Soltau could
not stop the Battery "E' boys and
they scored unearned runs in
the ball game by the score Of
to 2. At this same time our kite
BALL team was busilly engaged in
game with Battery "F", which
has the reputation Of being the
strongest team in the entire camp
and our boys lost a thriller by the
score of 1 to O.
A hockey league has been form
ed out here at camp and our Reg
iment has a team which represents
us in the Orange Belt Hockey
League. Last night they played
their first game on the ice of the
Orange Belt Ice Gardens, which
Cotton and Riverside, and their OPP
ponents were the 101st Brigade
Headquarters Battery. This game
was also a close game all the way
through and with 5 minutes to go
the 101st was leading by the score
of to 1. But at this particular
point our regiment scored a goal
tying the score at 2 all but the re-
fierce overruled the goal judge and
the point was ruled void. This was
the first league game and we
shouldn't lose very many more as
we have a very excellent team.
Merle Hardin has been making
quite frequent trips to Los Angeles,
in fact he hasn't missed a weekend
in quite a while. While he was
going the first two or three times,
the fellows didn't think much of
the fact because it is perfectly
natural for guy to go into the
big city, but when he kept on go
ing the fellows started getting just
a little suspicious and when he
started telephoning into Los An
geles that cinched it. One night
everyone got together and worked
him over and over giving him the
Bird degree in a very mild form.
After a great deal of questioning
he finally dropped a mild hint that
his girl friend, namely Barbara
Chisholm had come out here and
was living in Los Angeles, so that
the whole situation.

In one tent down the line there

The four of them went up to the
ness hall and brewed a pot of steam

ike home every day.
The other day a carpenter who
S working on the new era just west
If here, came strolling into the
Headquarters building looking for
someone from Sank Centre because
lie had heard there was an outfit
rom that town out here. Well
naturally he couldn't help but bump
nto someone from the famous
Main Street because the majority
# the fellows over at the office are{
rom our battery. He happened to
ak to Jim Pangburn and after
hey both introduced themselves
hey found out to be friends-in
way. The carpenters name was
,ecil A. Lee and guess be used to
i've in Sank Centre quite some time
