HOSPITALITY PLEASES BOYS Pennsylvanians at Camp Han cock Bask in Friendliness of Southerners With the 28th Division at Camp Hancock, Ga., Sept. 29.—One of the first things that impresses the casual onlooker at this pleasantly located and Ideally nature-equipped training camp for National Guard troops Is the cordial hospitality and willing ness to serve of the natives of the town. The hearty co-operation of the Chamber of Commerce, the newspapers and the individual citi zens has resulted in the suppression of most of the price-soaring on necessities and luxuries, and in a campaign of hospitality that is an eye-opener for the more reserved people from the north. The gates of the city, outer and inner, have been opened and the drawbridge let down in a generous and eminently successful attempt to make the Pennsylvania troops feel at home. Many automobiles take the enlisted men over the country on Sundays, and it is the boast of the churchgoers that not a man is allowed to leave the church of a Sunday morning without at least one invitation to the big dinner of the week. Along the road to camp it isn't a surely "Get out of the way" that emanates from the driver of a ear, hut a cheery "Jump in boys, going my way?" and a lift for the weary soldier returning from a trip to the city along the txtremely dusty road. Yes, the roads are dusty, but the soil is wonderfully porous and noth ing is better for a camp site than just the kind of soil on which the troops from the Keystone State are now drilling. A heavy rain is ab sorbed in no time, and the drain age problem is not a serious one. Camp Hancock has no peer in the opinion of experts. The much-exploited eight-hour day prevails under the current sched ule. From 7.30 to 11.30 in the morn ing and from 1 to 4 in the after noon the khaki-clad figures have been rounding into shape under the instruction of their noncommission ed officers and the supervision and attention of the officers. The Na tional Guard has, never before in its history experienced such gruelling work, but the willing spirit displayed by officers and men alike evidences the anxiety of both to get into shape quickly so as to be "up and at 'em" as soon as possible. On a Saturday evening. Augusta is transformed from an ordinary business-like city of 60,000 people, with broad streets and an obvious shortage of skyscrapers to a seeth ing cauldron of olive drab particles, each particle moving apparently in a different direction, and presenting in the streets of the city a sight to dim the eyes of any curious aviator winging it across the heavens. Au gusta is hard put to it to entertain these hordes from the north, but everybody is good-natured and friendly, and what matter if the trolley cars do bulge and bend with the human freight. Pennsylvania's camp is in the HXRRISBURG SfSiSJbS TELEGRAPH! forefront of the cantonments now training men in all parts of the] country, and it is the oft-expresse<l opinion of officers here that she will probably be the first guard contin gent to be sent "over there." If events do in time bear out these as sertions, the honor will be richly deserved, for the men are expend ing every energy in the intensive training which has so recently been inaugurated.

Middle Division Report Shows One Dismissal T Discipline bulletin No. 478 issued from the office of Supt. N. W. Smith i of the Middle Division shows that j 21 employes were reprimanded and ! 24 suspended from one day to one ! month each for infractions of the j rules and regulations during the ! week just ended. One laborer was dismissed from the service on account of repeatedly reporting ill without apparent rea- } son. for so doing.

Gould Management to Quit Western Control The final chapter in the story of' the steady but gradual retirement of | George ,T. Gotild with his associates from the control of the railroad properties that were dominated by! his father, the late. Jay Gould, is expected to be written at the annual stockholders' meeting of the Denver} and Rio Grande on October 16. This: meeting, many believe, will result in the Gould interests relinquishing at• least three places on the Denver di- j rectorate in favor of the stockhold ers' protective committee. George J. Gould about three years ago signi fied his intention of gradually retir ing from most of the properties. TRACKMEN GET INCREASE Sunbury, Pa., Oct 1.

Not a single ton of steel I rails was ordered, nor was an order placed for a single locomotive. The bookings were entirely for cars and they called for only 3,620 freight j cars and thirty-seven passenger cars. In August equipment concerns re | ceived orders to a total value of $4 2,- i 519.000. July contracts had a value of $36,000,000. The utter collapse of railroad equipment buying is refiect |ed In the fact that of the 3,620 : freight cars ordered last month 3.000 ' were contracted for by the United States to be used on its railway in 1 France. Of the remaining 620 cars 211 were ordered by foreign railroads and 300 cars are to be built by a pri vate concern having its own building I facilities. The thirty-seven pnssen j ger cars ordered last month were taken by foregn railroads. The car I building situation fails to give prom | ise of enjoying the usual fall activ j lty. Railroad Notes J.
