DESCRIBES LIFE
AT CAMP HANCOCK
Corporal Writes That Y. M
C. A. Is Doing Great Work;
Band Awakens Them
J. Frank Palmer, of the llarrls
burg National Bank, is the recipient
of a letter from George A. Roberts,
of this city, now a corporal In tho
Eighth Pennsylvania Infantry Band,
stationed at Camp Hancock.
Corporal Roberts tells of the life at
the camp and speaks very highly of
the work that tho Y. M. C. A. Is do
ing. He is much pleased with the
treatment that he has received at
camp. He, bellevea that after the
X'-lghth Regiment Is disorganized it
will remoblllze at Camp Meade to go
to Prance. His letter is as follows:
Army and Navy, V. M. C. A.,
"With the Colors,"
Wednesday, Sept. 26, 1917.
Mr. Palmer.
Dear Friend:—
1 thought 1 would include you in
my correspondence this evening. As;
you may suppose, I am writing this
letter at the local Y. M. C. A. build
ing in camp. This organization de
serves much credit for the work they
do here for the soldiers. In the first
place they furnish us with stationery
and writing material free. Nearly
every evening the boys who are mu
sically inclined bring their instru
ments and gather around the piano
and play.
There is also a phonograph with
records. Plenty of reading is fur
nished . the boys, which includes
newspapers from "home," magazines
and good books, and which may be
taken to a soldier's tent to be read,
and samie to be returned. Last Sun
day afternoon the Y. M. C. A. had
the "Orpheus Four," a quartet from
Los Angeles, Cal., here to sing, and
they entertained the boys. Every
Sunday they have a concert of some
kind. The Y. M. C. A.'s work among
the men certtainly Is great and thor
oughly appreciated by all tha
"Yankee Boys."
Band Awakens Camp
Our day commences at 5.15, at
which we (the baud) arise shortly
before the rest of the camp, and line
up with all the buglers in the Vear.
(Twenty-four buglers). We then
march up and down the whole regi
mental street playing to awaken the
camp, after which reveille is sounded
by the buglers and tho whole camp
arises at 6.45. Then we "fall in" for
rollcall, after which comes mess
(breakfast.) Band rehearsal at 9 to
Jl. Mess at 12.15. Band rehearsal at
2 to 3. Drill, 3.30 until 4.45. Mess C
o'clock. Guard mount is generally
held at 5.45 with retreat played im
mediately afterward.
After "retreat" the "boys" have the
time between that and "taps" to go
where they please, provided they are
in bed with "lights out" when "taps"
are sounded, which is at 10.30 p. m.,
and If any man tries to get into the
tent after that time without leave of
absence by the noncommissioned of
ficers, he is nearly always stopped by
a sentry, and taken to the guard
house (the cooler) for over night,
and is reprimanded and punished In
the morning. Rules are very strict
here, not at all like on the Island at
Ilarrlsburg.
•Heavy Sand
We have sand six to eight Inches
in depth on which to march and drill
and in dry weather it arises in great
dust clouds and nearly chokes the
men. The climate is great and the
hoys all like it. The nights are very
cool and sometimes cold, with days
very hot. We get little rain. Our
company was fortunate in obtaining
three good cooks and I have noth
ing to complain of the food. We also
have a fine man in charge of the
headquarters, First Sergeant J. Boy
er, of Carlisle. He is one of the finest
men I've met for some time, and is
well liked by the whole company. Or
ders just received state that our com
pany will be broken up, and the or
derlies, which, of course, includes
Sergeant Boyer, will go to Camp
Meade to mobilize (very likely for
France. Tho band to which I be
long will stay here indefinitely to
train the draft "rookies." We do not
expect to ever see France, but stay
here as a depot station.

was u "fire call" blown by. a bugler
and this was taken up by every other
bugler in the camp. \Ve immediately
lined up and started out on the dou

to be a small farmhouse outside the
camp. Tho boys -worked on it, hut
it had too much of a start before we
could get the line of hose stretched

plugs, water for which comes from
Augusta.
The electricians are finishing the
wiring of the camp. We will have
street lights and a bull- in eve v tent.
Each company has their individual

Tho ladles of Augusta show their
interest in the hoys, and show it by
coming to the camp every Thursday

Local Knights Are
Helping Big War Fund
Members of the Knghts of Colum
bus in Harrisburg received notice on
Saturday that the committee on war
activities of the Knights of Columbus
has raised 13,000,000, which is being
devoted to the social, recreational and
religious welfare of soldiers, sailors
and marines as well as all other
branches of the serivce.
Service men, no matter what their
nationality or creed, will benefit by
the fund Which V.-MS raised by local
councils of the Knights of Columbus
throughout the country. In the cam
paign they were aided by thousands
of persons and the f<id, raised with
very little publicity, iSi a monument
to the energy of the promoters of the
enterprise.
Members of the organization in this
city had a prominent part in the rais
ing of the fund and not only contrib
uted a large sum but were big fac
tors in furnishing books and other
supplies for the reading rooms In the
cantonment camps.
Tech High Notes
Caterer S. S. Rutherford is proving
popular with the Tech boys because
of the splendid service that he is
giving in the lunchroom. Ho aims to
give lunches a little better and
cheaper than the best in the city.
The Tech boys are responding to the
number of 450 for each lunch.
The members of the senior class
will meet this week to elect a presi
dent. Harry Miller, who held that
position, and who was a member of
the basketball and football squads,
has moved to Detroit and will not
return to the school for his last year.
Bees Lloyd Is vice-president.
Almost 200 books were received In
the library donated by the students
of the school for the soldier boys in
the camps. Members of tho school
assisted Saturday in helping along
the book proposition and canvassed
parts of the city.
In two minutes Friday morning the
building was emptied of its 700 stu
dents at a tire drill.
Professor George W. Updegrove,
with the twenty-four members of the
orchestra, gave a demonstration to
the school at a recent chapel exer
cise of what the organization can do
along musical lines. They responded
to' two encores. With a little train
ing, the club is expected to be the
best in the history of tho school.
The five-day drive for 500 mem
bers for the Tech Tatler was begun
to-day in charge of Joseph Schmidt
and Earl Schwartz, circulation man
ager and business manager, respec

SKVENTKEN SAI.OOSIS CI.OSED
Allentown, Pa., Oct. 1. Seventeen
licensed hotel bars in Lehigh county,
two of them in the city, were ordered
closed yesterday by Federal agents,
a"s the result of a visit here during
last week of Frank Garbarino, of
Philadelphia, a special agent of the
Department of Justice. No explana
tion was given the hotel proprietors
for the order, which had been expect
ed for several days, because of simi

THE TRUTH ABOUT
GERMANY
By MARIE BONINI BROWN
Berlin Has Almost the Same Appearance
as Before the War, but Beneath the
Veneer is Despair and Misery
One thing surprised me, In Berlin,
and that was the slight difference if
you looked only on- the surface be
tween the appear
ance of the city be
fore the war began
and after it had
tlnue<i f° r three
On the surface ev
ery thing appeared
the same.
Despite the fact
JB'.A fvjj that three-fourths
fl of the man labor had
f., 7v .iM Knno, tho streets,
houses, parks and
V P ub " c buildings kept
their spic and span
appearance. There
were fewer soldiers
In the streets than before the war,
for in peace times Germany Is over
run with soldiers.
There were no young men to be
seen, of course, nor even middle
aged men. But there was no univer
sal spread of mourning in wearing
apparel, for, although practically ev -
ery woman In Berlin had seen death
enter her family at least once, and
the majorlt? of them had felt Its bit
terness many times, yet little black
was worn. There was no appear
ance of universal sorrow, either, al
though there was a deeper gravity In
the air than before the war.
The amusements kept up, although
no musical comedies were billed. The
cinematographs kept open only from
6 to 9 p. in. so as to save the light.
The price of admission at the cheap
est cinematograph was one mark,
about a quarter. One heard no pop
ular songs on the streets or In the
theaters—only patriotic airs. Few
grand opera performances were giv
en. In the cafes what few cabarets
they had were rather dispirited.
Tilings Arc 'Wearing Out
But, when you looked closely, you
saw that "things were not what they
seemed." All the buildings, tho
bridges and other structures which
depended on paint to keep them
fresh looking were shabby and worn.
KAPRISBURG TELEGRAPH
by Ralph Hamlin, representative of
tho Selden Truck Co., of Rochester,
N. Y. It mixes the dough, molds any
shape desired and divides it into
loaves of predetermined weight. The
capacity of output is, ininmum,
3,000, and maximum, 6,000 loaves of
any size, weight and shape desired
In the homes the carpet's were
wearing out, the curtains were get
ting shabby. There .was no attempt
at refurnishing or repainting inside.
The floors lost their gloss and show
ed the need of the paint brush.
When we moved into the Hat this
spring It was very shabby. 1 asked
the woman from whom we rented if
she could paper it and have it fresh
ened up. She said no, not until after
the war.
It Is hard even to keep things
clean, let alone keep them in repair,
without soap. 'And there was no soap
to wash one's face, not to speak ol'
floors and walls aud chairs.
The furniture In the stores is be
coming exhausted and no person is
making any more. Leather of course
Is terrible scarco. Sometimps when
I would go to havo the heels on my
shoes straightened the cobbler would
say he had nothing to fix them with.
He would take oft the broken layer
but had no more* leather to put a
new layer on. When you had your
shoes half-soled (and when you ute
allowed only two pairs a year you
are very glad to have thiß done), the
cobbler would use a thick paper spe
cially prepared.
Vermin Cause Trouble
There were few birds In tho parks.
I had a beautiful bird, but it died, I
think because I was giving it the
wrong kind of food. I could not get
regular birdseed, and I gave my bird
a substitute they sold me. Evident
ly there was no nourishment in it,
or the wrong kind, and the bird died.
There were fel birds in the parks.
"Whether they died or were killed for
food I do not know. I heard them
say that, always, Berlin had a species
of bird which destroyed the mos
quitoes. This bird evidently died or
migrated, for last summer the mos
quitoes were terrible there.
Of course every person who knows
anything about European travel
knows how the fleas plague the trav
eler. They were bad in Berlin. They
seemed to be so much worse after
the war. And, after the war a re
striction was made that X never
heard of before —every person leav
ing tho city had to swear that they
had no fleas or lice with them—and
those coming into tho city had to
swear the same thing.
If one had either fleas or lice, one
had to get rid of them before one
left or entered the city.
Neither of these vermin is regard
ed in Europe with tho same horror
as they are here. In America for a
person to have a flea on his body
is a disgrace, a shameful thing. But
in Europe you Joke about it and,
when you meet your friend, tell them
of some new way to get rid of the
pests.
No Building; No Roaplrs
When they become too bad, \
would go into the bathroom, till the
tub with water, take off my clothes
and shake them well over the water.
Then I would run that water out,
run some more in and take a bath.
I would be free of the pests then,
until, from some public conveyance
or some one's home, I would get a
fresh supply.
Or, I would shake them oft on the
carpet and then sweep them out.
They can't hop on the carpet. They
stick.
The soldiers suffer terribly from
vermin. Even In the best quarters
they have trouble. And the poor
prisoners of war—l do pity thetn, for
they have not the opportunity to pet
rid of them that civilians or the Ger
man soldiers had.
During the war I saw only one
building in course of construction,
that was the terminal for a new sub
way, and women were working at
that. There are no artisans in Uer
inany now and no time to build. The
materials used for building also are
needed for other purposes, so no re
pairs are being made. The work of
restoration inside and outside the
homes and buildings in Germany will
take a year after the war is done.
What will have to be done in the
districts devastated by the war itself
Is beyond the imagination.
Respect for Roosevelt
Germans have great respect for
Theodore Roosevelt.
"Thank God, Roosevelt isn't Presi
.Jdent of the United States," I heard
dozens of times, before we entered
the war. They don't seem to know
much about our other military men.
What they think of Gen. Pershing, of
course, I don't know, as they hardly
had heard his name when I started
home.
But I often have heard Germans
say that they would like to capture
Mr. Roosevelt and lead him down
Unter den Linden. I believe that If,
to-day, Mr. Roosevelt were leading
troops in France it would have a
greater depressing effect dn the Ger
mans than anything else wt> could
do. It Is a peculiar, almost supersti
tious feeling they have about "Ted
dy." If he has "bluffed" them he
certainly has made good work of it
Can't Understand Wilson
On the other hand the Germans
cannot understand President Wilson.
in one hour. With five men em
ployed, it will do the same work
that 112 men are now required to
perform the same functions In the
Army. E. L. local represent-
Hthe, savs if tne Government adopts
this outfit the Selden company will
manufacture it at the Rochester
plant.
They think because he has tried to
be diplomatic and has given the "soft
answer" so often that he is weak.
And only when the American troops
rcaly crash into the Germans will
they believe that we mean actually to
fight.
The Germans couldn't understand
"watchful waiting." Perhaps, by
now, though, they realize that we do
mean "business."
The intolerance felt by the Ger
mans against residents of Germany
who belong to any of the warring
countries is extended even to En
glish, French or Italian women who
have married Germans. These poor
women are treated with what
amounts to brutality in some in
stances. Their children nre brought
up by tho husband's relatives to hata
the country of their mother, and the
I mother cannot interfere. In society
j these women are snubbed outrage
! ously, are treated with the utmost
contempt, even if they try and do
nothing against the feelings of their
| German companions and relatives.
An Unhappy Wife
I knew one sweet little woman
there, an English woman who had
married a German officer.
"When my husband is home," she
told me once, "I dare not even think
in English. I dare not discuss the
war, I only can listen while he says
terrible things against my country.
He never is moved by any feeling of
compassion for me.
"I dare not either write home or
receive letters from my -people. I
must not speak English. I must ren
der myself absolutely submissive to
my husband's people and even then
I have to endure all manner of slurs
from them because I am English.
Many a time, since this war, I have
thanked God that I have no children.
I can't go back to my country bo
cause I have married a German. 'My
life is miserable here, for I love my
husband and this estrangement, be
tween us hurts me. I am in a most
unhappy position.

Words Should Fit the User
Ilid you ever stop to think thst
words may be like clothes —too large
or too small? That when they do
not suit the thought they aro ill-fit
ting, and unpleasant to the party
who hears or reads them? Yet this
is, indeed, often the case. And every
persons should choose his words with
care, so they may not be too big,
like father's trousers on his little son,
or too little, like a hand-me-down
suit three sizes too small for a grow
ing boy. Besides, a person who uses
words that do not convey his exact
meaning, loses the force of an idea
that might accomplish much in deed
and action. A lack of skill in the use
of these tools of thought may serve
to keep one down in the world when
he belongs on top. If you once learn

Xew Vork, Oct. 1. The slaughter
with uxea of all the Armeniun fuc
ulty members of Anatolia Colege,
•Vlarsovan, Northern Asia .Minor, 10-
getner with 1.20U others by Turkish
peasants whose pay for the work
was the privilege of stripping the
clothing oti their victims' bodies, is
described here by the Rev. George E.
White, president of the college, re
cently returned to this country. The
massacres were committed at night
by order of the Turkish government,
lie said, the Armenians being sent,
out in lots of a hundred or two to
their doom und their bodies rolled
into prepared burial trenches.
"One group of our college boys
asked permission to sing before they
died anil they sang 'Neareu, My God,
to Thee,' then they were struck
down," Ltr. Whito said.
"The situation for Armenia became
excessively acute in the spring of
1915 when the Turks determined to
eliminate the Armenian question by
eliminating the Armenians. The Ar
menian question arise Irom political
and religious causes.
"On the pretext of searching for
deserting soldiers, concealed bombs,
weapons, seditious literature or rev
olutionists, the Turkish officers ar
rested about 1,200 Armenian men at
Marsovan, accompanying their Inves
tigations by horrible brutalities.
There was no revolutionary activity
in our region whatever.
Killed by Ijots
"The men were sent out in lots
of one or two hundred in night 'de
portations' to the mountains where
trenches had been prepared. Coarse
peasants, who were employed to do
what was done, said it was a 'pity to
waste bullets' and they used axes.
"Then the Turks turned on the
women and children, the old men
and little boys. Scores of oxcarts
were gathered and In the early dawn
as they passed, the squeaking of their
wheels left memories that make the
blood curdle even now. Thousands of
women and children were swept
away. Where? Nowhere. No desti
nation was stated or intended. Why?
I Simply because they were Armenians
and Christians and were in the hands
of the Turks. •
"Girls and young women were
snatched away at every turn on the
journey. The girls sold at Marsovan
for from $2 to $4 each. I know be
cause I heard the conversation of
men enlialied in the traffic. 1 know
because I was able to ransom three
girls at the price of $4,40.
"The misery, the agony, the suffer
ing were beyond power of words to
express—almost beyond the power of
hearts to conceive. In bereavement,
thirst, hunger, loneliness, hopeless
ness, tho groups were swept on and
on along roads which had no desti
nation.
"I received word from Ambassador
Morgenthau that our premises would
not be interfered with. Next morn
ing the chief of police came with
armed men and demanded surrender
of all Armenians connected with the
college, girls' school and hospital. We
claimed the right to .control our
grounds as American citizens,

"More than two hours we held
them at bay. They brought more
armed men. They again demanded
surrender of the Armenians. I re
fused. They challenged me for re
sisting the Turkish government.
They said anyone who did so was
liable to immediate execution.
"They broke open our gates,'
brought in oxcarts and asked where
the Armenians were. I refused to
tell. They went through the build
ings smashing down the doors. Then
our Armenians friends, feeling that
further attempt on our part to save
them would bring more harm prob

"An oxcart -was assigned each fam

bedding and clothing. The mother
sat on the load wltn her children
about her, the father prepared to
walk besldo the cart, i uifered pray
er and then the sad procession carry
ing seventy-two persona lrom the

"Tnese teachers were men of char
acter, education, ability and usetul
ness, several of them representing
the line type of graduates from
American or European universities.
The company went in safety for
about titty miles. Then the men were
separated trom the women. Their
hands were bound behind their
backs anil they were led away. The.
eight Armenian members of the statf
of instruction of Anatolia College
were among the slain. The women
and children were moved on and on.
No one knows where and no one
knows how many of them are still
living.
Thousands Killed
"The government officers plowed
the Armenian cemetery in Marsovan
and sowed it with grain as a symbol
that no Armenian snould live or die :
to be buried there. No Armenian
student or teacher was left to Ana
tolia College and of the Protestant
congregation in the city of 950 souls,
more than 900 with their pastors
were swept away. It was a govern-1
ment movement throughout—a
movement against the Armenian
people.
"These things are typical of what
took place through the six provinces
of the Turkish empire known as Ar
menia. The Armenians are the Yan
kees of the East—the
manufacturers, capitalists, artisans
and among the best of the farmers.
One quarter of a million people suc
ceeded in escaping into Russian Cau
casus and among them American
representatives have done wonderful
work in caring for the sick, giving
bread to the hungry, clothing the,
naked, caring for orphans. Probably
a million more went to Syria and
Mesopotamia where they have been
dependent upon American relief
which is helping this worthy people
to pull through alive."
The number of Armenians who
have been massacred, said Dr. White,
is estimated by the American Com
mittee for Armenian and Syrian re
lief in New York City at from 500,-
000 to 1,000,000, while there arc a
: million still living in need of imme
