FIHST REGIMENT
Truly necessity It. the mother of Invention,
and the men from Philadelphia know how
to Invent many new little stunts to lessen
the harrowing experiences of camp life.
Keeping a razor from rusting Is one of
the hardest things tho men have to do with
their equipment. Drying them properly on
rainy days Is a problem. On sunshiny days
It Is no unusual thing to go down the
streets of a company and soo safety razor
blades Ingonlously fastened between threo
points of stacked bayonets, whoro the sun
and tho wind can dry them. Companies of
tho 1st Regiment from Philadelphia are es
pecially Ingenious In thts particular way.
Sergeant Walter Ilenrlo, of Darby, Bays
ho has tho biggest appetite In Company H,
of the 1st Regiment Ho admits that he
gots the biggest mess of any noncommis
sioned officer In tho company.
Tho 1st Roglment also wants a band,
because It was left In tho lurch on the ovo
of enlistment by Its regular band. At pres
ent the men havo only an Improvised band.
Thoy are sending urgent lettors to Philadel
phia because they want the Police Band of
that city. Tho 1st Regiment boys wore
much pleased with tho music furnished
them by tho Pollco Rand during tho parado
before they left Philadelphia.
Chasing Mexicans or Jerking thumbs at
traffic It doesn't mako any difference to
First Sergeant Warren and Private Charles
J. Hessor, of Company C. They're ordinary
trafflo policemen, Warren at Broad Street
Station and Hessor at Broad and Arch
streets. When tho call came they exchanged
the blue for tho khakt. In Company C Is
Howard Berry, tho University of Pennsyl

They shave, nil hours of the day in the

rors to anything or nnywhero and they
shave with cold water, bo that Bomo of the

those who still do shave are proud of It One
lad, Louis D. Hansell, of S003 Callowhtll
street gave his news Items for the Even

lather. He said In this connection, "You
might tell the folks at home that I am still
shaving." The safety of his ear depends on
the roadbed.
Tho boys In Company D want a dog sent
to them at tho border. They had one
Mary Ann Fisher, Jr. but Mary Ann Is no
more. The boys accuse some one In the 3d
Regiment of stealing tho little mascot of the
company nnd nre pining away. The owner
of the dog, Otis Fhher. Is hoping that some
of his friends In Philadelphia will Bend him
another to take the place of Mnry Ann. Ho

"Slum. Bah," saluted Rastus, "Dass 'bout
all Ah knows whut's In it. 'Pears t me,

With that Rastus fainted and was taken
to tho Rod Cross tent. While ho was being
rovlved tho corporal poured out tho "slum."
In the bottom of the pot he found:
One empty glue bottle.
An old shoo.
A piece of rubber hose.
Two plugs of tobacco (S-cent brand).
A can of carbide.
Six inches of hemp rope.
A rabbit's foot

The Bethlehem Steel Company's
Offer to Serve the United States
At a time when the expenses of the Government are bo enormous
Isn't it worth while finding out the actual facts before plunging ahead into
an expenditure of $11,000,000 of the people's money for a Government
armor plant?
To clear up the whole situation and to put it on a basis as fair and business
like as we know how to express it, we now make this offer to the Govern
ment: The Bethlehem Steel Company will manufacture armor plate for the Gov
ernment of the United States at actual cost of operation plus such charges
for overhead expenses, interest and depreciation as the Federal Trade Com
mission may fix. We will agree to this for such period as the Government
may designate.
f
The House of Representatives voted down a proposal to enipower the Fed
eral Trade Commission to determine a fair price for armor, and allow pri
vate manufacturers opportunity to meet that price before khe Government
built its plant.
Isn't our proposition fair and ought it not to be accepted?
The measure is now before the United States Senate.

Cadillac " Eight "
Plowing, Hub-Deep, Through Missouri Mud
During its memorable record-brcakine dash across the continent from Monday
to Monday, the standard stock Cadillac ''Eight" was put through a more terrific
trial of stamina than the majority of cars encounter in ten years of travel.
"Had It Not Been For Missouri Mud The New Transcontinental
Record Would Be Another Day Lower" "Cannon-Ball" Baker
"It is a fortunate thing that the good Lord never permits us to look ahead and
see the difficulties we are to encounter. Leaving Kansas City in the rain we hit
the highroad to St. Louis. Harder and harder came the rain, and deeper and
deeper grew the mud, until there was little visible below the hubs of the machine.
In and out of the ditch we went scores of times. It was actually two feet side
ways to every foot ahead. At one point we came across five cars stalled in the
mud. A big seven-passenger had become mired horses failed to move her.
Knowing the possibilities of my own car, I shot out into the ditch, into the fields,
around the five stalled cars, onto the road again."
Supreme Stamina Is 'A Mighty Desirable Feature In A Motor Car

class cars combined,
