by about 1.00 soldier, who arc already
In the field doing drill duty.

The grounds were arranged for a place

with three officers and forty-six men.
Four of the regular army instructors
are on the grounds holding classes In

the guards' life In camp is a good time,
coupled with a week's loafing, will be
dispelled when It is learned that the boys
are called at fi:15 every morning and
the day Is spent In military activity, until
evening. There are now on the grounds
nine companies of Infantry, .the quarter
master's department, headquarters' staff,
the aviation corps, two aeroplanes and
