Ch nip Dodge. Iowa, Annus! 21,
llll, A train load of soldiers every
hour left Camp Dodge for a week at
it st ntrh, hound for France. The
first soldiers from this division to net
Into the thickest of the fight were the
colored troops who left Inst spring
r..000 strong. They have rendered
distinguished service on the battle
front In France. Following these
men were others who had been called
from this camp to help fill units In
other divisions. These men are also
ready for active service overseas. The
next contingent 1o leave were several
hundred officers who were sent over
to get things in readiness for the
great body of men to follow. For the
past two weeks the men have been
leaving, a contingent of 5,000 getting
off tne first week In August. When
the order to entrain was received the
enthusiasm of the men knew tin
bounds. Many of them had been at
Camp Dodge for nearly a year,
other? had come from other canton
ments and ' had participated In the
hanlr training at this camp. The men
worked hard because they were given
to understand that their going
abroad depended upon their capabil
ity for service. As each unit march
ed to the train that was waiting for
It on the side tracks in the canton
ment it was headed by a drum corps
and the inspirational music, supple
mented with the shouts bf the men
m. id. the occasion one long to be re
membered. Officers and men were
ager to get away. They were ready
Tor the great events across the sea.
Farewells had been said to the home
folks and when the time came for
departure no civilians were permit
led about the trains, so there were
no sad scenes of parting. It was a
good natured, enthusiastic bunch of
well trained men fully conscious of
the grave responsibilities that they
are to assume when once the order
is given to go over the -top. They
know full well the Issues that
prompt the sacrifice and they realize
the stupendous task that Is before
them. They are ready for the test.
As I stood and watched the men
Knurrtlni? ho trntnn that were to car-' '"en from tilt
ry them away my attention was es-'
pecially centered upon a company of i
men. many of whom I knew person
ally. Tliey marched past four abreast
lawyers touched shoulders with coal
miners, blacksmiths and hankers
marched side by side, fannera and
section men. clerks and street IWMp
rs, day laborers and college profes
sor?, capitalists and men acmiaint-'d
with hardship and poverty, lint there
were no lines of demarkation now.
All were comrades. Each respected
the other. A common cause and a j
"common purpose exalted the brother-:
hood of man. It was an Inspiration
to note the great amalgamation thnt I
had been wrought under the benign I
influences of comradeship. No other 1
country In the world can furnlBh just i
such an army. The very spirit of
democracy makes such things possi- ,
ble. There were soldiers in this great
army who were born across the sea.
MVn there were proudly marching
fhat day whose blood relations are
righting in the Prussian army. De
scendants from almost every nation
ality under the sun contributed to
the formation of this division and
they are eager for the fray, because
the heart throbs of liberty and free
dom Inspire hope and exalt couraue
The efficiency of the "melting pot"
will be vindicated on a thousand bat
" tleflelds in thin struggle to forever
sever the bands of autocracy and set
this old world free.
Another Division Forming.
With the departure of the 88th
division another organization is be
inc formed. It is presumed that it
around for some material that can be
converted into high class performers.
During the hot Spall and while under
quarantine, a bunch of cowboys from
Montana pulled off some wild west
stunts that attracted unurjual inter
est. Some of the an ma had taken
part in the pione t day festivities at
Cheyenne a few weeks ago and they
were In prime condition for the
frolic Howard Drew, of Drake uni
versity, known hi track athletic cir
cles as the fastest 100-yard man in
the United fSW'tes, with a record of
9 3-f seconds, will be u soldier at
Camp Dodge. Sergt. fori Cr.ddock
will take part In no more wrestling
matches until after the w.-.r. He now
holds the undisputed world's cham
pionship in the he: -yv;etght class
and Is satisfied to spend :.ll of his
time in getting ready to give the
Huns all the scrapping he h.s in his
powerful body. It's a cinch that If
Caddork ever gets a body scisors or
a toe hold on Fritz, the Kaiser will
have one less Hun to fight Mb battles.
A New Hand Leader S
The going away of several of the
regimental bands made it necessary
to organize others and this work Is
Sing on in a very satisfacory man

of musicians. The new leader of the

thus dealt with since the organiza

than 200 conscientious objectors
here who have refused to enter the
military service because of religious
or other scruples against warfare,
are to be given an opportunity to re
ceive furloughs and work on farms.
The order is taken to mean that the
objectors who do nbt make applica
tion for such furloughs will be charg
ed with insubordination and tried by
general court marial. Thus far the
objectors have done nothing more
than eat their meals regularly and
sleep soundly.

Camp Dodge mothers in the future
will be under the jurisdiction of the
war camp community service. At the
meeting of the executive board of the
service recently, plans were made for
a complete erorganlzatlon of this
camp work. Mrs. James R, Hanna.
