Lieutenant Kaufer, for merly connected with a large baking concern in Ohio, delivered the talk which engrossed the principles of cooking, the balancing of rations and general food values. While no regu lar schedule has been arranged for the classes here, it is understood that they will be held whenever Lieuten ant Kaufer has the spare time to make the trip to the hospital.

Private Tad Markuszewski, whose home was in Chicago before he en listed in the medical departnuent, was married on Wednesday e.vening at five o’clock to Miss Grotez of Chicago. The wedding took place in the Presbyte rian church parsonage in Charlotte and the ceremony was pronounced by Rev. H. M. Pressly. The bride is a talented musician and will give a piano concert at the base hospital Y. M. C. A. on Saturday evening. She will remain in Char lotte for several weeks but will later return to her home in Chicago. The wedding banquet was held at the Selwyn hotel on Wednesday even ing. Those who enjoyed the elegant ly appointed banquet supper, besides the bride and groom, were Secretary Martin of the base hospital Y. M. C. A.; Hospital Sergeant Dempsey, Ser geant Nierzwicki, Corporal Wenger and Privates Keller, Pulonen and Har- rold. “MORNING PEPPER” Cartoonist Boyle has sketched this memory picture of “Dad,” the veter an salesman of The Charlotte Obser ver at the base hospital and who has now retired from that work. There are hundreds more of the base hos pital folks who have tender recollec tions of the ways of “Dad.” MAKING INSPECTION. KODAK WORK a specialty Lanning Harvey, camp director of the Red Cross, is in Washington, D. C., and Wilkesbarre, Pa., where he is making an inspection of conditions. It is understood that Mr. Harvey has been offered the position of national director of the Red Cross. It he takes up that work he will leave Camp Greene at once and much to the re gret of the base hospital officials, who have found him a most faithful worker. ^ One of the most interesting organ izations at the camp today is the camouflage squadron commanded by Lieutenant Willis. Of the officers as signed to the squadron, several were prominent artists in the North and one in particular. Lieutenant Friend ly, has done considerable camouflage work in connection with the naval fleets in New York. The enlisted per sonnel is very efficient, too, a num ber of them being experienced deco rators in civilian life. The men are thoroughly occupied all the daylight hours, both with the indoor and outdoor activities connect ed with their work. Galleries have been established for the painting and drawings necessary for the further ance of their gentle art. On the out side old nature herself is being so disguised as to fool even experts from a distance calculated to be most ef fective for gun fire. Around their sec tion of the camp what appears to be a stump may be one or it may not; you never can tell what may lie be hind its innocent frontage. THE OLD PEP. BURNING Or- PAVILLION DOE- NOT HALT DANCE PLANS. The U._ S. 0. N. A. Club of base hos pital enlisted men had, made every plan to hold a dance in the Lakewood pavillion in the near future. These men were aroused Thursday morning by the news that the pavillion was in ashes. In less than an hour the soldiers had arranged for another hall and a larger orchestra. The planned Lake- wood dance will be given on .July 5th in O’Donoghue hall, considered one of the best dance floors in Charlotte. There will be the best dance music that the south affords, the committee promises. The public is invited. The admission fee is fifty cents with ladies admitted free. GET THEIR PAY. The past week was a bright one for sixty of the base hospital patients who received allotments of their army pay. ^ These men have been in the hospital for weeks and in most cases their former regiments are now “Somewhere in Prance.” The army provision that men de tained in the hospitals be paid as soon as their exact status can be made out has been carried ou;"as soon as pos sible and those who linger in con valescent wards will be paid each month until they are reassigned to duty. Private Clair Rogers returned from a, six weeks’ furlough on Wednesday night. He ig the first hospital man to be back on the job after tilling the broad acres. From the crop promise of Vermont farms, Rogers assures us that Germany is whipped on the food question.
