He is the only man ever known to get brandy out of the regimental infirmary without beiing on the ick list, and he's been known to stait a week an abject object of poverty and give a boat party with a staff of Morehead Cuy boatmen on Saturday night.

But your sons are young and innocent. , Morehead City is preparing to give the colonist community a rebate on the Fourth of July. They're figuring on having miles of soldiers. My pri vate opinion is that they won't. It's hinted that we are even now on the verge of biking. We are all anxious for whatever is in store. There are not many of us willing to go to all this trouble without shooting a Mexican apiece. Soon the cavalry will be here, ac cording to rumor. We will be glad to have them, provided they keep in their place. The infantryman is the aristocrat of the service. He doesn't have anything to keep clean but him self and his rifle. Preference is given the latter, of course. (By the United Preas) Wanhington, June 30.

General Bell reported to the War Department. If there's any sickness here I don't know of it. There's not apt to be any sickness. The truth of the matter is that a lot of these lads should be ken away from their mammas and betaught to live right. There's many a good woman who's asked, "What will become of our boy if he gets sick?" Now, ma'am, don't worry, be cause William couldn't get better at tention anywhere In the world. It is a wonder to me how these "hospital sergeants and stewards can be so ef feminate at times and so profane at other times.

There's a big fellow in the com pany who is an object of some curi osity. Nice, likely-looking lad, but he is so big they all sidestep out of his path. He is so large they're thinking of issuing the company ra tions for "one man extra."

The motion creating the steering committee conveyed the idea that there was an emergency, which it was thought wise for the Chamber of Commerce to recognize and set in motion plans to meet It was empha sized by many of the speakers that the dependent families should not be regarded in the usual charity eense, and that the action of the Chamber of Commerce was in no sense an en croachment upon the functions of the United Charities or other organiza tions. The undertaking, it is desired to be understood, is strictly a com munity one, to be participated in by everybody regardless of creed or oth er alignment The call is a humani tarian and patriotic one and will be responded to.
