Some 75 acres are under cultivation. The machinery and hay already cut will Camp Funston, Kas. When a boy has been acrustomed to lying in bed until 7 or 8 o'clock In the morning, when he has been accustomed to be ing called three or four times before getting up, and has been used to hav ing some one wash his dishes and clothes and when he has been allow ed to go when and where he pleases any time he wished and now Jumps out of warm blankets into the cold, chilly atmosphere of a 1st fall morn ing at the sound of a shrill hlstle at 5:45 o'clock, gets out in front of the barracks, the soldier's home, where he goes through ten minutes of set ting up exercises, eats ureakfast, washes his own dishes, makes his own bed, sweeps the floor space around his cot and marches out for a hard day's work at 7:00 a. m. he necessarily has become a very much changed boy. Even If mother or wives aennot Imagine their men do ing these things It Is Just what they are doing down In the soldier's train ing camp at Funston. The men have entered an entirely new line than they have ever been accustomed to before. The average freedom loving civilian cannot real ize what it Is like until he gets Into It. The men are treated kindly but the Idea of being told Just what to do and when to do 11 is far different than being one's own individual boss. Every man gets the same treat ment. Each one is the other's equal in the eyes of the officers as the men begin their work. Shortly after the men arrive in camp they are thor oughly quizzed as to past work, their eeneral and special abilities and the like. It Is generally understood that this is the method the government will use in selecting the men for the different lines of services. Each cap tain will watch his men closely. If a man shows signs of being a good en gineer he will no doubt be placed In that department. If he shows evi dence of being a leader of men he will be placed in a position to use that ability. It is understood in Camp Funston that men for the next officers' training camp will be picked from this great National army. For the first few weeks or perhaps two months the men wll Ibe given drill trailing entirely and perhaps branch from this into the various services. Every man starts out on the footing. Millionaires and poor men eat the same food, wash their owa dishes In the same dish water, shave themselves in the same hath houses and sleep within three feet of each other. The "rookie's" life runs something like this: A piercing whistle and a command "everybody up" st 6:45 la the morning starts the day's woik. Within ten minutes another whistle calls the men to assemble In front of the barracks for roll call and setting up exercises, a sort of appetiser, though that is hardly necessary. Mess Is served cafeteria style, every man huvlng his own Individual kit of dishes which consists of aluminum plate, pan, cup, knife, spoon and fork. The "rookie" must have bis dishes washed, his bed made up and hi floor space swept by 6:45. At 7: Of the company assembles before the barracks and marches in company to the drill or parade grounds. Good. imrd drill, setting-up exercises, and athletic stunts until 1150, gives the s Idler the necessary desire to eat at noon. At 1 p. m. the company again as sembles in front of the barracks and marches to the drill grounds and Is put through drills similar to those given In the morning. The drills are varied a great deal and non-commis sioned officers' school from 4:30 to I does not get as monotonous as one might think. Some days the men are taken on a two, three or four mile hike. Later on these long marches will be longer, the whole day being used for this purpose alone. Work for the privates is over at 5:30. Corporals and other non-com-ralsBloned officers sre required to at tend non-commissioned officers school from 430 to 6 and report their work to the captain in the evening. Sat urday afternoon is given over to re creation and, of coarse, Sunday Is a day of rest. On these days the men assemble in front of their barracks at reveille and retreat, the assem blies of morning and evening re spectively. From all Indications the men whe work and work hard are the ones who will reap the rewards of non commissioned officers and perhaps litter commissioned officers, and alse the rewards of special privileges.. conspi raters.
