am sitting here and thinking
Of the things left behind;
And Id like to put in writing
What is running through my mind
We have dug million bitches
And I've cleared % miles Of ground
We have drunk our beer and whiskey,
In every honky-tonk in town.
But there is one consolation,
Gather round while | tell:
When we die well go to Heaven,
For we've done our stretch in He'll.
We have built million kitchens,
For the cooks to burn our beans;
We have stood million guard mounts
And we have cleaned the camp latrines,
We have washed million kits,
And peeled million spuds,
And we We killed million snakes and ants
That have tried to steal our grub.
When our work on earth is ended,
Then our friends on earth will tell:
When they died they went to Heaven
For they've done their stretch in He'll
When the final taps have sounded,
When we lay aside life's cares,
When we stand our last inspection
On those shining golden stairs
The angels there will welcome US.
Their golden harps will play;
And we will draw million canteen checks
And spend them in day.

Tell US loudly with yell
Take seat, you boys from the desert,
For you've done your stretch in He'll. =

Soy 1t In Plain Words

(Reprinted from the Writer'S Monthly
In promulgating your esoteric cogitations,
or articulating your superficial sentimental
ties and amicable philosophical psycholog-
zeal observations, beware of platitudinous pom
derosity. f
Let your conversational communications
possess clarified conciseness, a completed
comprehensibleness, coalescent consistency,
and concatenated cogency
Eschew all the conglomerations of flatulent
garrulity, jejune babblement, and asinine af-
fectations.
Let your extemporaneous decantings and
unpremeditated expatations have ntelligibil-
ity and veracious vivacity, without rhodo-
znontade or thrasonical bombast.
Sedulously avoid all polysyllabic profundity,
pompous prolixity psittaceous vacuity, ven
troloquial verbosity. and valiloquent vapidity.
Shun double-entendres. prurient jocosity, and
pestiferous profanity, obscurant or apparent.
In other words, talk plainly, briefly, natural
iy, sensibly, truthfully, purely. Keep from
slang; don't put on airs; say what you mean;
mean what you say, and don't use big words.

Huochuco Isn't So Bod!

Fort Huachuca is isolatedI How many
times do we hear that! Let's admit it. But
SO are Tucson and Phoenix and lot of other
towns and cities if we measure the distance to
the next place of comparable size There are
10000 to $4,000 persons on this Post. from
time to time, and that's a pretty good sized
community by anybody's calculation. It's the
third largest in this state
But it takes something other than size, you
say. That true, and Huachuca has something
other than size. 1t is not an overnight camp
This fort has heritage of three-quarters of
century 1t has traditions and fine ones Its
historic background is a part Of the develop
ment Of the West and of the empire that maIees
up this country-the wars with the Indians
the Mexicans, the Gadsden Purchase, and the
suffering of overland pioneers who developed
this country and the rest of the West In the
towns and cities now developed there is small
trace of the suffering all this entailed. There
are modern streets, shops, homes, and places
Of entertainment The only thing which Hua
chuca lacks is shop windows. There isn't
thing one do in town which can't be done
There is an astonishing resource here for en-
tertainment and recreation. Plays, pageants
horse shows, art exhibits, musical comedies
ballet dancing, classes in Spanish, >stenography,
the three Rs, book reviews, library usage and
what-have,you None of us can keep up with
all of it, five picture houses, bands and orches-
tras for concerts and dancing-classes in musi,
cal appreciation with the very best Of recorded
music. Composers, play writers, authors and
dancers and artists. Recitals in voice and piano
by artists who not only rate Broadway appear
ances but actually have appeared there Chap
els, religious services, choruses and choral
singers-everything imaginable
Our shows are demanded by the rest of the
country until it is difficult to resist the demands
Of other people who want to be entertained as
we are here. You d think it would be the other
way around. They would be glad to have the
horse show we had last fall; in fact they would
have been glad to have those very horses and
riders in the metropolitan cities Of the East
Our football and baseball teams were good
enough to play professionals. Our Christmas
pageant was beautiful thing to see and it
made sense. You would hardly expect to find
ballet dancer out here on the desert, but there
was and she evidently had training The
young woman who took the part of the fairy
did good job of it. as did all the rest of the
children. You cover lot of ground from
ballet dancing to horse shows and you dig
pretty deeply into any communtys resources
to do so.
Huachuca isn't so bad-fact is, it's fine!

DON'T TAKE
pl(TURESOF
ARMY stuff

HEADQUARTERS, ALASKAN
DEPARTMENT - Well-intentioned
camera addicts with a desire for
souvenir pictures of Army construc-
ton work in Alaska are bringing
trouble upon themselves because OF
a lack of knowledge of Federal
statutes forbidding photographing of
any military installations.
Alaskan Department officers
pointed out the case of a civilian
construction employee at Northway
who was recently fined 5000 in Fed
eral District Court on a charge of
taking pictures on a military res
ervation.
The worker, who pleaded guilty
to the charge, explained that he had
no intention of doing wrong, but
that he had only vague idea of
provisions of laws governing pictures
taken on a government reservation.
Many persons apparently believe
that pictures are prohibited only in
connection with certain installa-
tons, but a Federal law specifically
states that no person is permitted
to take pictures of any military
installation without authorization
from the proper authorities, officials
stated This applies to service men
as well as civilians
Violation of this statutes is
serious offense and makes the guilty
person liable to heavy penalties.
