Liquor and women always form a problem in connection with army camps and will need to be dealt with rigorously.

The sedentary toiler needs some form of active exercise in the lus from an hour or two of daily in the invigorating ozone. If the indoor worker takes his garden stunt at night when he is dull with nervous strain and in a state of lassitude from bad air and a stooping position over a desk or ma- chine, the additional exercise won't do him much good. If he will get up in the morning when it is cool and pleasant, he will feel the better for his exertion. " The gardefiers must expect some lame backs and stiff muscles for a few days.

Their Lardships have made it difficult for many years to secure enlistments. On the Mexican border there has been much less complaint. The ab. sence of scandal indicates that the boys were pretty well fed. The big give them reserves of strength and energy for years to come. Meanwhile the boys who stay at home will for the next year or two be living largely indoor lives, work- ing in stooping postures over desks, impairment of vital organs. It's dan- gerous living most anywhere now, and as some humorist said, the bed is the most risky place as most of Uncle Sam having signed up with the Entente Allies ball nine, has been assigned a position out in the field. x ok ok ok x 1 There is a general agreement that weath should pay heavily for the war, and everyone's definition of wealth is about $1000 a year more then he gets. * ok ok ke ok Girls are willing to go out to do- mesg ic service nowadays if there are no children in the" family and the mistress will do the cooking, sweep- ing and laundry work. i .
