MEDICAL SUPPLY “Dewey” Noble has been commis sioned a Second Lieutenant, and on the day when we were all ce.ebrating the signing of the armistice, he went on a five-day leave, going to his home in New York. He has been assigned to Camp Grant, ill. Who me? I'm going to “Irving Ber lin” to two weeks, and then spend the next one in £ ont of a French mi ror, surveying myself in a “civy ' outfit. Farre-comody on streets of Char lotte, Monday night. Two civies drag ging an effigy of the Kaiser, while a thi d one marches behind pointing a revolver at the likeness and yelling, “We got the Kaiser”. Klnyabeetut? The Bar:acks Kats and the Tent Hounds did not play the football game sc’-edu’ed for last Sunday. Wonder why? One of our numlier got a letter f'cm the sweetest mother in the world. He al'nws us to use the fol lowing sentence from aforementioned letter; “Now, .Tohnny, I have had your black-and-white-penciled suit, cleaned and pressed, and will send it by par cel post, in a tew days, so that you will have something to come home in”. State University of North Carolina triamp'ed over the Remount Station term of Camp Greene by a score of 52 to 13 in a game upon the Chapel Hill field last Saturday. This is the first game for the Camp Greene team but mo’-e are being scheduled. The battle on Saturday was snappy th'oughout and with a little more coaching by L-'eiten-nt Marrln and Abernathy the Remount men will be ab e to take cure of themselves in any company. The Remount team line up last Sat urday was: Rourke, left end: Tighe, 'eft tackle; Scott, left guard: Haas, center; King, right guard; McNabb, right tackle; C"nnon, right Stone, ourrterback; Hays, left half back; CowgiH. right halfback; Cap- t-in Bl-'ine, tul back. This team is being aided by t-'m Rreme’m''nn of the Remount who is an old football sta’’ and rhuch interested in the success of his team. The Kaiser and the Flu both went into oblivion together. May these two world menaces never be heard from again. Co p. Fendle has created a new wrinkle in B. V. D.’s. The pattern is the same old reliable; the color has taken on a strawberry jam color. Let's not send our laundry home any more, Corp. lone is still celebrating the accept ance of the armistice. Red has not heard from her in two weeks. By D. M. BRILL. GAVE MATINEE. Through the thou.chfful conside~a tion of Mr. Soue^bv of the Libertv Tent theatre, the “Nothing But The Truth" company gave a matinee to the con valescent patients of the Base hospi tal in the Red Cross house Saturday afternoon, Nov. 9th. The Play was a cleverly conceived idea well acted by a talented company. It must be a sou-ce of gi^'eat pleas ure to Mr. Sourby and the entire com pany to be able to contribute so much pleasure to the boys who have so recently gone through the intluenza epidemic. This is the first of many such p’easures promised Us by Mr. Sourby for the season. 18 S UTH IRYON STREET SEE YOUR THERMOMETER. THE OLD TIN HAT. Unhappy lies the head they say Th; t wears a golden crown, A fact th; t's doubly true today With Euiope upside down. But more uncertain is the head Of .Johnny, Jack or Pat, Who da^’es to face the German lad Without his old tin hat. Some say it’s used to wash in. That in it we boil our tea. But others say that’s but trash. And with them I agree. Still over tnere and amid the din. And to puzzle Mr. Rat, Your bread and cheese is safest In your old tin hat. It isn't, I admit, very pretty, And it often makes me swear. It is not what Mag or Kitty Would expect their boy to wear. But where the cannons thunder And the bullets ping and pat U may gave you from going under. If you wear your old tin hat. A very necessary thing in every war home is a thermometer. Several are not too many. One to a room , best. The home thermometer is the home fuel using guide. It is to the coai saver what the speedometer is to the car driver. It shows how fast you are going in coal consumption. In the ordinary sitting room any temperature above 68 is unhealthy— and a fuel waster. In rooms where one is working or moving around, 64 to 66 is high enough. These temperatures have been found by doctors and heat experts to be the best of humanitv. The thermometer will tell you when your sitting room is above 68. Then turn off the heat from that room, eith er by checking the furnace or by onen- ing doors into other rooms, cooler. If the sitting room goes down below 66. close the doors, turn off heat from other rooms, or Increase the furnace heat by regulating dampers, or put oh more coal. Nine times out of ten the cool room may be heated more by closing doors and directing heat from some other untised room, and not by stoking the furnace.
