Very Informal
It will be a"ahirt sleeve" drill en
tirely—the formality of uniforms will

PENN STATE MEN ARE
HONORED WITH OFFICES
During . the last fete ,lays letters have
been filleting In front Penn State men
in the various [mining camps, telling
of their expetlences there and of the
rigid routine of uotic that they have
to go through to become commissioned
officers in the army There aro between
125 and 160 Penn State men In- the
vellous camps, most of them at Port
Nittgatm, ulth Madison Barracks and
Port Myer ranking second and third,
A few are at Plattsburgh
Conditions In all the camps are prac
tically the same with roMtoot to the
daily routine of work, and although It
can be seen that the life Is a most
strenuous one, no complaints what
ever have been heard. On the contrary
tho men scan to be enjoying them
selves to the full Last Saturday and
Sunday the recruits were given from
twelve to fifteen hours off duty In
sections, and they all spent an enjoy
able time In sightseeing In their vicinity
One letter explaining conditions at
Fort Niagara was of special interest,
and Is characteristic of the work at all
the crimps

and afternoon hours will be taken up
with instruction
A complete outfit has-been Issued to
ouch num. They moot /mop theb_rintm
and all equipment spotlessly clean. The
inspections are very exact. Illustrat
ing this. one o the men writes "Every
thing Is placed out In order on your
cot. The only criticisms In our room
were...that one man had the position
of soap and comb interchanged, and
another had the folds In his sheets
on the wrong side Beds must be made
up in a certain way and in the day time
the bedding Is plied In a specified on

which Is located at the upper end of
Lake Ontario, Just below Its outlet
Into the St. Lawrence river, and almost

Watertown. It to estimated that 75
per cent of the men In camp aro col
lege mon, most of them undergraduates
There are about 200 from Cornell, 150
from Syracuse, 12 from Harvard and
46 from Colgate
There aro twelve companies and each
is housed In the temporary wooden
buildings that aro characteristic of all
tho camps. A mixture of rain and
snow made It rather Uncomfortable,
for the mon during the latter part of
the week, but thoy seem to ho enjoy
ing the life immensely. Two com
panies of the Now York National
Guardsmen are located there, as well
as many "regulars"
The last week end wee one filled
with the first physical pain for the re
cruits at all the crimps. Every man
was given the inoculation treatment
