such a delightful Christmas observance,
as was staged on Green Street in Au
gusta on Christmas night; ihe sacred
memories, the cheer, the good will, the
I holiday feeling were there, and al) com-
Ibined, to show that hearts are the same
j whether north, south, east or west. The
spirit that makes all mankind one. that
levels distinction, exemplifies the adora
tion, and makes all peoples a part of the
great harmony that proclaims the birth of
one King, all this was portray* d and
sung, and felt by those participating in
the celebration of last evening.
From early candle light, crowds of
' people directed their steps towards the
court house, and after the procession,
halted there, and the beautiful tree was
illumined, expressions of delight were
heard from all sides at the complete
and perfect arrangement of all.
The carols lead by the M. T. D. bands
of sixty pieces, were sung with great,
effect by the large audience, and the
tableaux were, beautiful, impressive and
sublime.

Seventh streets.
The costumes were a great asset, ami '
the dances were artistic, ami beautiful!
in the e.Jreine, trained for the occasion!
by Mrs. St. Armand. The M. G. T. (’.
band furnished the music, and a larg ■
number witnessed the dancing.
There were many attractions but the
block parties Were greatly enjoyed, and •
the soldiers flocked to the hot ths wh- re !
they w< re refreshed, and entertained by I
the ladies in charge of the refreshments, j
who served without stint. Many of th->|
booths \v»-re brautifully decora U-d and it ;
would la- hard to say which were tli- j
prettiest. The French block presented a ,
gala serene with the Tricolor floating !
from every available bush ami tree.
Hundreds of soldiers were entertained 1
and made merry. Some of the r.-sid n< (s ;
were decorated beautifully and kept
open house for the boys in khaki. Al- ■
together the block parties were a sue- i
cess, and appreciated by every one..

Things to Worry About in the Hospi
tal.
How to keep your table neat and
clean with only one bunk and toilet
articles allowed thereon, when you re
ceive eight boxes of candy, a toy trum
pet, two jumping jacks, a box of ci
gars. an R. C. stocking, endless ci
garettes. etc., etc., all within that
exciting twenty-four hours called
Christmas Day!
How to keep the fire going all night
when the night orderly crawls into bed
after the O. 1). has made his round
and pounds his ear to the tune of a
healthy cross-cut saw for the rest of
the night.
How to prevent certain gold-bricks
in a certain fracture ward from re
suming their crutches and keeping
them very much in evidence whenever
there is work to be done about the
ward or when they do not want to
wait in line at the mess hall! Not that
we wish to be personal, or oast any
reflections, hut either Stevey or Klump
or both might suggest an answer.
How to n ke a realization of the
fact that Kaisordom has been ended,
penetrate the ivery dome of a certain
sergeant who demands silence when
he enters ward. We “name no
names” but he wears his hat way down
over his eyes. All together now! We’ll
look and you’ll whistle!
How to secrete a dozen Xmas pack
ages, an extra suit of O. D.’s. two hun
dred and fifty cigarettes, seven books,
two pounds of tobacco and a deck of
cards about your bed so the nurse
can’t find them!
How Acting Ward Master Mathews
is to keep the ward spic and span dur
ing Czar Silver’s adsence. when the
boys will persist in smok ng the many
evil smellin;; butts handed around
during the holiday season and drop
ping the ashes wherever they happen
to be. not caring to brave the zero at
mosphere outside to make their devo
tional lurnt offering to the fairy Nic
otine!
How to cheer up a guy who has his
discharge all s gned up and is only
waiting for transportation and who
goes to swiping apples, falls out of the
tree, breaks his left arm. right ankle
and his nose and is brought into the
hospital on Christmas Day!
How to retain a cheerful disposition
necessary to rapid convalescence on
the unnamable concoct ons periodical
ly supplied for food at the mess hail,
when one hears of a certain cook con
suming a dozen friend eggs at a sit
ting!
WARD 12 LOCALS.
The ward was appropriately deco
rated in wreaths and greens and colors
for Christmas festivit es. Several of
the boys succeeded in obtaining invi
tations to dinner with certain Augus
to people. When they returned to the
ward they found their pillows deco
rated. in son.e instances with wreaths
containing such inspiring epigrams as

We must refer inquirers after fur
ther particulars to the departed My
ers .
Mathews the Beau Krummel of'
Ward 12, fared well at Christmas. A
whole room was reserved for the many
presents sent by his lady admirers.
Although some of the gifts are said to
be the cream of the leading jewelry
stores of Fifth Ave , New York, he ap
pears to value most highly of all the
pair of handkerchiefs from a “certain”
young lady.
His great delight in the gift was
manifested in the gallant way •in which
he touched it with his bps, as a chival
rous knight of old might kiss his lady’s
glove. If he is as gallant toward the
young lady herself, we may reasonably
hope to hear wedding bells ring sil
very cleajj in the very near future.
A few more of our old standbys have

Steve Meyers and Kleinheims. With
Myers once more on the old White
Way. we except to hear of Klaw X-
Erlanger and some of the other large
? producers being frustrated in their es
• forts to stage some of the leading acts,
■ i as Meyer claims to control the major
ity of the stars under an unbreakable
i contract.
Fitzpatrick has left for the Bronx.
( where he will probably inaugurate
many novel features to assist the jan

A very pleasant event Is bung planned

On Thursday, January 2nd, these ladies

we received these cavalrymen, they call
: us an Infantry company? Any one care
1 to explain?
Another little problem: They say “vir
tue is it’s own reward.” Shortly after our
first course began in the M. G. S.. late in
August, they weeded out a number of
fellows, believed incapable of successful
ly completing the course and sent them to
the various groups, where, after a short
stay they were made corporals The
fellows now in the Infantry Machine Gun
Company, and the Motor Machine Gun
Company paseed the course successfully,
were promised to be made sergeant-in
structors yet now, after two months and
a half, are still buck privates and tuck
here in the M. G. S. for an indefinite
period.
» • u
The one bright spot in our stay here is
the weekly dances at the new K of C.
building. Those dances are god-sends,
and never bt-fore has a finer bunch of
young ladies been gathered together for
the entertainment of the soldiers since
w’e’ve boon in Camp Hancock. Here’s
hoping nothing crops up to cause these
entertainments to be cut out.
Jimmy Bagley and Home Hun Shee
han were the first to profit by the K.
of C. dances. Both fellows have b com»-
acquainted with some of the fairest of
Augusta’s peaches and each one nn»w has
a iegular Saturday night attraction in
town.
Beg pardon, we forgot. Bugler Yarns
and his champion waltzer.
Wonder who the young lady in Law |
rence. Mass., is who sends a letter in a
dainty baby blue perfumed envelope, ev
ery single day to Jack Thomas, and him
engaged (?) to a girl in Lowell.
Talking of girls, none could a
more faithful soldier sweetheart than
Jimmy MeLaugiilin. Every night at 7
o’clock Jimmy digs out HER photo and
for the next hour Jimmy’s pen is busy
scratching the paper while he snatches
an occasional glance at the sweet face
set up before him.
Still, if we had a girl like Jimmy’s
we might, bo as faithful.
While at Camp Johnson our baseball
team won the championship of the range.
We expected to win the championship
of the M. G. 8. on our return to Camp
Hancock but with everyone who was here
now in various groups, this would be
rather an empty honor. We’d be glad to
play any teams that may still exist,
however, and can promise them the finest
licking they ever had.
Guess we’ve written enough for our
first crack. Have a few more hot coals
ready, but will wait to see ho these
are received.
