advice to Headquarters is to start at

and challenge a few of the base ball
corpse's the L. and B. team have left
along the road of their met-orfe base
ball career. Hereafter the L. and B.
‘ are acting to pla, only first class teams
or none at all. Nuff sed.

and says it can’t be did.
If our new Mess Sgt. Ladd contin

breakh between words, which was under-
Blood by all.
We extend our best wiahes to Major
Blanton, and wish him lurk'und success.
In addition to being a splendid company
commander he was a mun'i man.
We welcome our new commander, (’apt.
Clarence A. Worcester. We extend ('apt.
Worcester a hearty welcome and know
that the detachment and company will
give him the same co-operation that they
rendered Major Blanton.
Laid Saturday's Inspection will long be
remembered by all present.
Sorgt. Edgar Cornwell played the de
tachment a mean trick by being absent
from the Held event:; last Thursday. XV v
trust that the sergeant will see hir
sweethearts on days that tlic detachment
neo** him most. ThO result of the games
show how much he was missed.
I We offer no apology in behalf of the
“Pen Pushers,” but had some of their
men been present and t,. w that
were 111. the result would have un
doubtedly been reversed.
The final score was 43’*. points for the
company to 19'4 for the detachment. Wo
wonder how they managed to get even
| ASH points.

when pay day is near. All of the
clan show an unusual display of
being accommodating when the Lieut,

Lieut. Bryan is very quiet these
days. We wonder what's up Espe
cially since his initiation to that mys
tic lodge. What will the Society Buds

Lieut. Effron Is continually easting
I suspicious glances at Lieut Gsvott.
I the ’’Baby” benedict of the office. Per
haps Lt. Effron is contemplating a
plunge and is watching the affect it
has on Lt. Gavett.
The Select Society is sure out of
luck. No sooner had the commander
in-chief returned from his trop to the
capital when away goes he secretary,
or better known as Cheroots Dudley.
The peculiar part of it all is that they
both travelled at the government ex
penses.
Milton Fine, the acting sergeant and
acting private, who inridently is a
leading montbes of the Select Society,
is having the time of his life Just
What this good time consists of is a
secret. But we hope to enlighten our
readers in the near future just what
Milt. Fine considers ”a time of his
life."
We understand that Capt. Struts is
about to hand out "plums" to the
worthlea of the office Some of the
men will soon wear stripes. Which to
.our way of thinking is due most of
them. Be we mean different stripes.

watch the blood flow. We’d explain the
L .me according to the established
fashion, but we lost and we haven't
the heart to go through with it.
There's a movement on foot to buy
First Sgt. Middleton a lanter- to use
in calling the roll at reveille. That
would rnakewould make it unneces
sary to do squads right- which is most
annoying at 6:15 in the morning,
Deady!

words to that effect, I wish to . mgrat
ulate heartily the clerical force at
Headquarters for their splendid work
of the past week. Morning reports,

out to give them the glad hand and

But just the same Bob is cunning.
At the recent Press Club affair he

Saturday Shows
Gain Popularity
The fame of the splendid week-end
vaudeville entertainments arranged by
Lt. Albert A. Millman for the Special
ists School had spread so far over the
camp that “Y” 77 proved for too small
last Saturday afternoon to accommo
date all who desired to attend. The
Specialists School was represented by
nearly its full strength, and there were
many present from the M. G. T. C. and
the Ordnance camp.
In addition to the talent from Au
gusta theaters, the Specialists School
Trio and also a trio from the M. G. T.
C. entertained. The show was a suc
cess in every way.
Princess Walki did a mind-reading
act that kept everyone intensely In
terested. She told officers and enlist
ed men what they were thinking of,
and answered all the questions thep
put to her. She predicted that the
war would not last long.
Charles Buckley and Company pre
sented an amusing comedy sketch.
Bartello Brothers, strong men, pleased.
Jim Cooke, singer, won much applause.
Clifford and Willis lived Up to their
title of “Laugh Manufacturers.” Den
nis Brothers, novelty gymnasts, had a
good act. Betty Beat and Company
were delightful in a musical offer
ing. Walker and Texas, rope manipu
lators, went over big.
The men of the Specialists School
are very .appreciative of the kindness
of the managers of the Augusta thea
ters in co-operating with Lt. Millman
in providing such pleasing entertain
ment Saturday afternoons.
News From School
Company No. 1
The members of School Co. No. 1 for
Enlisted Students, Specialists School,
M. G. T. C„ who have been attending
the Liaison class, completed their
course last Saturday and with the pub
lication of the many of them may have
been transferred to companies In the
M. G. T. C. uh instructors. It was
expected that about a score of them
would be made non-coms and kept
with the company.
Mess Sgt. Ba. 1 Freed has been hav
ing a hard time keeping track of his
K. P.’s. He has been getting them
mixed up with the orderlies. t Tupply
Sgt. David McCarthy has solved
the difficulty for him. Hereafter the
K. P.'s will wear brassards with the
letters “K. P. ” so th;«t Freed will know
them at a glance.
There was a rumor last week that
the K. P.'s were planning to start a
union. Sgt. Freed said that he would
not tolerate it.
Through some queer freak of fate,
Pvt. Joseph A. Rteenbeke misses K. P.
Inst Sunday. Pvt. Chester Thornley
and others of the old reliables were on
the job. ,
Sgt. Freed invites suggestions as to
how the mess fund should be expend
ed. One private told him he should
serve ice cream at every meal.
Some of the boys have secured per
mits for cameras. They will refuse to
take the picture of anyone with a
moustache.
We now have fifty-nine privates
studying to be army clerks. They are
an ambltloui; lot. They like to keep
their tents nice and c lean. There is a
delegation of them at Sgt. McCarthy’s
tent every morning seeking brooms.
Mirthful Mutterings From
The Medical Supply
Three of the most valued phrases
learned by the new recruit and the ones
he will ever have use for are "lemme
two bits.” ‘‘gimme a cigarette,” and "got
ta match.” And the detachment par cx
excellence is no exception to the rule.
You will find the gentle voiced Aahkenaa
almost any day gurgling forth the above
mentioned phrases, with "Saint" Nick
pulling a close second. The disease has
even struck our renowned Ukelele Wor
shiper Fineberg. and our dancing Instruc
tor Brown. Play deaf and you will be
safe, but even at that the quartet would
undoubtedly carry a pad and pencil
around with them and write it down.
You can t beat ’em, that’s all.
A rival has sprung up in our midst.
Vainly is ho endeavoring to take the lau
rels away from us. We can&t keep him
down and as this is a free for al! column
we must needs give him space. Our erst
while contemporary, "Crowd Prince”
Rupprecht has shown such an outburst
of energy that It would be a shame to
keep it all to ourselves so we will wish
his ravings upon the unsuspecting and
Innocent detachment. From here on we
take no credit nor arc we responsible for
what goes into print. Further deponent
sayeth naught.

of the operations section, who has been

Lieut, 11. F. Beto is having his trou- I

Cook Morgan must be a disciple of
Pljviter Jupius, or whatever the fel
lows name was, for he spends most
of 1 . time these days at C’Keefe’s
swimming pool. It’s a good place to
quench the heavy Morgan thirst and
now w*e come to think of it it does
look a bit suspicious for he always
takes lemons and sugar along. Take
heed, Morgan, O’Keefe is a fighting

dry go ahead but leave the sugar and

“Paradise Lost” and “Paradise Re
gained,’ that’s the best title we know
of for the four real film presented dur
ing the past week by “cross examina

fined to the company street and if you
were lucky enough to have seen the
little one lingering for hours at a
stretch right at the most extremely
extremity of his confines nearest
Stewart avenue just so he could watch
'em go by, we know you’d say it was a
sight you’d never forget. We might
have persuaded the United Cigar peo
ple or one of the other big film ex

trouble was to get a four r al re
lease of a six foot confine. However,
he’s out now and wearing the “smile
that won’t come off.”
John J. McComnwns, the acting non
commissioned assistant to the non
. supply sergeant has
blood In his eye. Being wl.hout a
watch he never knows whether it is
time for retreat or reveille. A few
afternoons ago he was rudely awaken
ed from his beauty nap by a wild ru
mor that it was time for retreat. Like
the man who carried the met age to
Garcia he asked no questions but
dressed hastily and rushed forth into
our lonesome street. After waiting
several minutes he timidly inquired at
the orderly tent, “Why in the hell don’t
those lounge lisards down the ne fall
out,” and was gently informed that
the correct time was 4:49 p. m. Since
then he has a trained caterpillar, sup
plied by Sgt. Colson, which bites him
when the bugle blows, so he rlumbers
on in peace till 6:34 p. m.
We use to think that the fellow who

As a further reflection our new writer
adds that we should have mirrors

Insure more grime (Wo wonder if he

AN ODE TO OUR BOYS
The liars said, we were selfish and cold,
That our purpose was pelf and power
and gold;
Our Ideals shatter’d our ambitions vain;
Our love of country strangled and slain.
That never would we arise and stay
The hand of the war lord,” nor say him
nay
On his murderous march of rapine and
plunder,
But sit smugly by and see freedom go
under.
From over there ’midst the battle’s din.
Where men are fighting that right may
win;
Where stalks the spectre of hunger and
pest,
And babies die at their mothers’ breast.
Where little children are maimed and
slain,
And the protests and tears of virtue are
vain,
They called to us from across the sen:
Dear God! what will America's answer
be!
You heard their cry. your answer rang
true;
We will follow our flag of Red, White and
Blue,
We are coming brothers, you have waited
long—
By the God of our fathers! we are com
ing strong.
And never, never was music more sweet
Than the mighty sound of your marching
feet.
When you arose in your might and an
swered the lie
That America's men were afraid to die.
We send you greetings, would cheer you
on,
We know you will fight ’till victory Is
won,
Will fight fnr freedom until again
Shad be "Peace on Earth, good will to
ward men.”
And so, brave men, where'ere you he,
In trench or camp, on land or sea,
Our hearts are with you in the tight
For honor, Country, Truth and Right.
