Member of n Chicago law firm, who
has leen appointed general counsel
of tho United States Shipping Board
against n repetition unci nre therefore
milking a thorough investigation of the
matter.
All Well and Contented
The soldiers boys all seem well and
contented. No sick cases have ns yet
been reported. The only epidemic about
the camp is the so-called "toddle"
fever, which overtakes the guordMnen
during their spare time. When the boys
from the Smoky City reached camp they
wcro equipped with Springfield rifles,
army packs and "toddle" tops.
The Scrnnton troops knew nothing
about the miniature Monte Carlo gnmo
until they reached here. Now the
"toddle" spin Is as much the rage
around camp as the "toodle" dance Is
popular with the .cottagers In the grove.
They spin 'em on half dollars, on top
of the regimental drum and on tho old
mess pan.
Some of the companies of the old
Tenth had their first good sleep, last
night since leaving borne, owing to the
delayed arrival of a supply of cots. Re
sponsibility for It Is placed on the Fed
eral and not tho State officials by those
officers here who mnde the Investiga
tion. As a result of thc mistake many
of the officers and several companies
bad to pass Saturday night on damp
ground with only a tick hastily filled
with straw between them and the
ground. Yesterday, enough cots arrived
from the State arsenal at Harrisburg
and now alt the gunrdsmen have ade
quate sleeping equipment.
Have ft Moist Nlrfit
A miniature cloudburst during the
night which drenched the district added
to the discomfort of thc men of the
several companies. Those on bedding
rolls' or straw were almost flooded
when thc water rushed under the
canvas.
The first accident of the camp was
reported yesterday afternoon. Private
John Levan, Company I, 100th In
fantry, the victim, was bathing when
another private made a high dive and
alighted on bis head. Swimmers rushed
to his nld and found that he was
not severely injured.
Captain Harry Schall, chaplatn of
the 110th Regiment, held Sunday serv
ices yesterday In thc "Y" tent. He as
sertcd, that America entered the war in
a crusading mood. A large number of
the gunrdsmen and cottagers attended.
