This is considered a most judic ous method and is held in mmch favor by each unit of the regi- At six o'clock-just as day be- n-ina to break the regimental buglers herald the approach of the new day with "Reveille , Hir. ' shrill, distinct notes of scent over the Iscrizon Retreat in sounded, and every Battery m the regiment la formed, a roll- call is made similiar tojthat at Reveille, at the conclusion of which, with the foldiers stand ing at attention with heads erect and as immobile as statuettes the Regimental Band plays ."The Star Spangleii Banner' As the last notes die away in an echo every figure relaxes and the Bat teries are dismissed with suit able commands. This signifies that a day's work is completed, and in a short while the soldiers are fed for the last time during c "V" .UA What day which arouses every soldier, who . . . hurriedly dresses and emerges from his tent with a blanket thrown over his shoulders to keep oil the keen' sting of the spicy air. .The mornings here are very chilly, but as the sun rises in the heavens the atmos phere becomes pleasant and ex- hilirating. The formation for roll call is made at 6:15, which gives every one ample time in which to pre pare for same, and woe Is to those who fail to answes when their names are called. Im mediately after the roll-call the ranks are opened and a short, brisk physical drill is given. The Bettery is then dismissed for fifteen minutes, which time is devoted to arranging their toilet and getting their cots in shape. Tney are formed again at 6:45 and drilled into a commodious mess hall, where a temptin breakfast is served undor the direction of the efficient culinary artist, Growr C. Lilly, our mess sergeant. It is well to state right here that he is the most popular soldjcr in the camp, with the exception, of course, of the paym-'ster. At 7:15 the sick call is made, which is answered by all who are suffering from any ailment?, As the chill of the night air begins to form, camp fires are started at innumerable places in the camp. The camp at night affords a most resplendent spectacle;-the Nubian blackness of the night is most picturesquely offset by the brilliant glow of over a hundred camp fires, from around which emanate music of various varieties, furnished by the lusty lungs of healthy, good- natured troopers. The camp is filled with melody, and there prevails an air of perfect con tentment. The mess halls are used during this period by those who have relatives, friends and sweet hearts to whom they wish to write of their experiences of camp life. etc. At ten o'clock "Taps" is sounded by the buglars at head quarters, which is a genera' good-night that must be obeyed. Each corporal is then required to report the whereabouts of every man in his squad to the "Top" Seargeant. who turns the report over to the Battery Com mander the following morning In this manner every man is al ways accounted for.
