Mount Gretna Chronicle
Sam Crawford, of tho Eighteenth Itegl
ment, Pittsburgh, halls from a town back
home. Ho may not be listed In "Who's
Who," but he has plenty of time. He's lit
tle more than a boy.
Sam. however, has a stout heart and
when he heard all the hultaballoo about go
ing to Mexico, he realized that If none of the
boys from that little town tucked away
In the hills answered the call. It was up to
him to go. Go he did. Now he's one of
the busiest men In this camp; he's busy
learning.
"Hey there. Crawford! Get busy," one
stern corporal yelled at him. "Go up to
headquarters and get this order filled at
once."
It was the most direct order Sam had
had personally since he left off clerking in
the grocery store at home. The lad stood
at attention, wheeled about-face, and rushed
to headquarters more than a mile away.
The order given him called for several
dozen O. D. nightgowns. Now, Sam had
heard of B, V. D.'s but O. D.'s was a new
one to him. Ills not to question why, so
he approached a quartet of ofHcers wearing
eagles, maple leaves, and bars (not Iron
ones) on their collars, and made his re-
"My boy," ona- officer said, "tell the cor
poral that we ifive no nightgowns, not even
a night-dress up hero!"
Sam learned later that "O. D." means
olive drab. He's learning fast.

ing over to professional seamstresses were
to bo seen plying the necdlo nnd thread In
dustriously at camp.

sponges seemed to abound uns In tho First
City Troop. Tho men uso them to waRh
with and fasten them between tho guy
ropes of tho tent to dry In the sun.
Favorable comment greeted tho appear
ance of tho tented street of the First City
Troop ond the Interior of tho tents. Tho
thousands of visitors who thronged the
camp daily voiced the opinion unanimously.
The ground contiguous to tho City Troop,
No. 1 resembled a polo tournament, auto
mobile raco or horse show Independence
Day, when hundreds of automobiles from
Philadelphia and vicinity were parked iust
outside tho sentry line.
SECOND CITY TROOP
Henry Laussnt Geyclln, Jr., of Vlllanova,

Pennsylvania Athletic Association, has en
listed In the 2d City Troop. He enlisted

tho Mlfo nf Cnptnln C. F. Clement of troop
I of tho Cavnlry. the son of Major General
C. Jf. Clement, commander of the Division ;
nnd tho other Is the wife of William Church

ono of tho 98 men In tho troop go through
overy artlclo of troop property until the

It Is a good thing "Rags" Is not nt home.
If he were ho would track up tho floors.
"Rags" Is ono of the mascots of tho Second
City Troop nnd Is tho property of Cor
poral J. Harrison Hill, of Huntingdon Val
ley. He spends most of his days and half
his nights playing In an abandoned well
and bringing mud into camp.
Thero are lawyers galore In tho Second

ns John Lockland, Joe Dolan, one of the
war bridegrooms ; Carlton Harris, George
Wolbert and Fred Carlisle.
From garage owner to cook of the Second

Earl Wagner, who has a wholesale meat
house In Front street, between Market and
Chestnut streets, had a little turn at cut
ting while In camp. Ho Is a member of
the Second City Troop. For years ho has
known nil about the cuts of meat, but he
wns unacquainted with the achievements
of head-hunters until he became one of the
victims himself. It so happened that he

Evenino Lctoer Btaff Correspondent
"Where Is the 'Co-Mlserary' department,"
ono woman asked nrrxlously. Her son Is
detailed to the commissary department, but
thoso who heard her request said she might
have hit It right nt that. "There's .misery
enough to go round, nnd then some," they
said, "when It comes to providing for a
camp such as this."
Everybody at Mount Grctpa welcomes the
Improvement on the camp roads since the
matter was taken In hand by the State
Highway Commission In .Harrlsburg. Steam
rollers are nt work every day. Tho work

Want a good Job? One with traveling
expenses In tho bargain? Tlie.ro Is a decided

as every human being will upon occasion make mistakes a call
"goes wrong," the operator regrets it no less than do you. To mini

anywhere, among the down-town sky
scrapers of Philadelphia, on the shores of
the Great Lakes or in fastness of the
Rocky Mountains, and you will always
sense that same -calm, quiet atmosphere
which bespeaks an earnest keenness of
effort and service. Tongues may differ
and dialects vary, garb or features may
proclaim a predominating ancestry
traceable to the city's earliest settlers;
but always is the central office a place dis
tinctdistinct yet alike to every other
central office where Bell Service has its
being.
If as has been so often stated, the Bell Telephone has
drawn together the American people into a closer union of
a service tnau uiiuruuiei-i&es uveiy
in the land.
