Last Saturday afternoon Sergeant, First Class, McFinnis took the team of Number Two to town and overwhelmingly defeated Truck Company Number Two, to the score of 14-2. The pitching of Feeney, • Ambulance Company Number Two, was the feature of the game. The past week has been chiefly devoted to “problem hikes,” arranged and laid out by Major Hartung. The night previous to the hike, the company commander was given the order. It contained the plan of attack of the enemy and our own combat line, also the general directions and the names of the roads to be followed. After reaching the destination a suitable site was designated for a dressing station. This was supp posed to be protected from rifle fire. The building selected should contain ample •Space for *patients, there should also be a water supply and parking place for ambulances and animals. TRENCH AND CAMr The problems worked out veny well and were enjoyed by the men. Outside of a few sore feet and muscles the men went through the hikes in good shap. elt has been wondered where Number Three received their previous military training as they lockstep perfectly. Sergeant Helm of Number Four has the fishing record of the camp, having brought to camp a 26-inch bass. Some catch! The double quartet of Number Four is being kept busy at various musicals and services. Their talent is much appreci ated. The practice game between the subs and regulars of No. 1 was some game. It ended 4 to 4. Sergeant, First Class, McDonald has gone to Pittsburgh, his son having in fantile paralysis. He was granted a ten days’ furlough. CONVERTED BARBER COMING TO CAMP Mel Trotter, Noted Mission Worker, Will Address Men at V. M. C. A. Mel Trotter and a male quartet are to visit Camp Hancock tomorrow (Thurs day) and remain during one week. Mr. Trotter was not educated for the min istry. For a large part of his life he was a barber in the Grand Rapids Y. M. C. A. Building. After his conversion he or ganized a mission in the poorer section of the city, the fame of which has be come country-wide. For a number of years he has traveled from place to plac holding evangelistic services and strength ening city missions. He has also held meetings at Northfield, Winona and other places in the summer. Mr. Trotter pub lished the story of his mission in a book entitled “Jimmy Moore of Bucktown.” With Mr. Trotter is a splendid male quartet which will furnish some music and also lead the men in the singing The schedule for Mr. Trotter and his quartet is as follows: Thursday. Oct. l&th —Building No. 76 Logan’s Brigade. Friday, Oct. 19th —Building No. 79, west of the Fourth Infantry. Saturday, Oct. 20th—Building No. 70, or: Artillery avenue. Monday, Oct. 22nd—Building No. 78, near the Cavalry. Wednesday, Oct. 24th—Building No. 77, east of the Engineers. A special mass meeting will be held in the big Red Triangle Tent, near the post office, Sunday evening next. Everybody turn out. The sir gmg will begin at 7:45. CHALLENGES DIVISION Practically the last command to reach its full strength at camp, the Camp Quar termaster’s men pride themselves on the rapidity with which they have become acclimated. And everything has been done to make them so. Captain French cer tainly has looked after the comforts of his boys, and boxing outfits, basketbal’ courts, etc, are merely forerunners of what is in store. In fact "Officer’s Row,” from Captain Humber down, seems as anxious as the men to get going together. Football will of course be the biggest diversion in the near future, with Lieu tenant Crolly, Q. M. C. N. A., former C U. star as coach. The writer is au thorized to issue the following deft to the Camp as a whole and each organi zation therein, "the self-assumed title of champions” will be vigorously defended, That’s an open invitation, gentlemen, come on. On the other hand, baseball is still at large and cutting quite a figure. It would hardly be extravagant to say that the bunch who copped the gonfalon on the border will repeat (I mean the Quarter master Boys) and they are practicing hard to keep up their record of two straight pennants. In due time chal lenges will issue and the camp in invited to see the scrap. DR. LANIER. DR. MABRY. DR. DUNCAN. UNION DENTAL PARLORS and Best Equipped Offices South.

There was no dictionary about, so we had to confess ignorance and then learn ed that quitation was nothing more than riding a horse, or the art of learning to preserve one’s equilibrium while riding. Many men in the cavalry have had dif ficulty equiating the past few days, par ticularly since saddles are not used. More than one has been introduced to Mother Earth unceremoniously and some mishaps have occurred—but it’s all in the game of learning to equitate. WHY WE ARj ATWAR Through the League for National Unity, an extensive campaign for edu cating the public on the war will be in augurated. The league represents church, political, labor, agricultural and indus trial organizations and has the endorse ment of President Wilson. Cardinal Gib bons and Dr. Frank Mason North, presi dent of the Federal Council of Churches, are at the head of the league, and Sam uel Gompers is vice-chairman.- In its declaration of principles, the league says: "The war we are waging is a war against war and its sacrifices must not be nullified by any armistice or truce that means no more than a breathing spell for the enemy. "We approve the action of the gov ernment in despatching an expeditionary force to the land of Lafayette and Roch ambeau. Either we fight the enemy on foreign soil, shoulder to shoulder with comrades in arms, or we fight on our own soil, backs against our homes and alone ” Page 11 I Sv I if j SSJEdi lw 11 I MS I UH tffk Wa Z V Vb \ w \ I 9 tJ ' %SS II I EW
