DEMING PREPARES
s TO AMDSESOLDIERS
Citizens of New Mexico Town
to Make Central States
Guardsmen Feel at
Home.
Camp Cody, Deming, N. M., Aug.
28.(Special.)-If things become col
orless to the fighting men of the five
states in the midst of camp drill and
discipline and Sammy becomes a dull
boy because, of too much work and
no play on this desert plain, it will
not be the fault of the good people
of Deming. All the mothers in this
town are going to adopt the whole
36,000 guardsmen and if any horned
sick boy wants to say "dad" to the
worst crab in town, he can do if with
no unfavorable cometjark. .
The lowrr.hai started uut to make
the soldiers of -.rowa, Nebraska, Min
nesota and the Dakotas believe in the
welcome signs posted up over the dis
trict of trade, - . , '
, War Board Man on Hand
Myron A. Kesner, representative
of the war 1-oard .n training1 camp
social activities and welfare, ias ar
rived to assume the leadership of .A.
movement of wide scope. The. war
k service board of the commerce cham
i be will devise , plans of - entertain
ment; the Voting Women's Christian
association has plans for a '"hospital
ity lodge" to be built half way be
tween the town and the camp and
the Young Men's Christian associa
tion has opened its welfare work on
the reservation.
Mr. Kesner't mission is mostly
one of advisory capacity to the local
people, taking hold of the. entertain
ment ' for soldiers. He is' from the
cantonment at L:ttle Rock, Ark.,
" where he inaugurated Saturday night
"hops," sponsored by women'a clubs,
I street dansants, "take m soldier home
to dinner campaign" and recreation
and amusement features of other
I sorts. His work' Is the government's
application of its . determination to
have hand in the things that enter
into soldiers' minds when they are off
duty, i
Crowd Out Vice.
Clean, wholesome, constructive di
versions are, Mr. Kesner said, going
to crowd out the vicious forms pf
amusement that have unmanned
many an army '
Miss Mabel K. Stafford has arrived
from Dallas,-Tex., to supervise the
' activties of the Young Women's
Christian association here, which will
make provisions for the women folk
- of the men when they visit them here,
as no doubt hundreds will do. The
; "hospitality lodge" will figure in this
work. Representatives will be at the
station to meet trains and make the
visitors comfortable while they find
accommodations forthem.
In addition to the lodge the Young
Women's Christian association plans
to build a recreation center for girls
in the center of the elty, which may
develop into another adjunct in the
entertainment of soldiers. Thfjbest
families here are lending support to
. this idea.
v Secret societies are extending wel
come to all scldier members. The
grand bodies of Masonry of New
Mexico meet in Las Cruces, just
north of El Taso, in October and
probably many parties will go to see
the camp. The fraternity is well rep
sented in Deming. Odd Fellows are
inviting army members to their meet
ings. College men will be registered.
Tons of waiting materials will be
given away by the l Young Men's
' Christian association in its halls.
The army theater being erected by
an El Pasoan, Raymond Teal, impres
sario of the Teal Ducklings vaude
ville trouDe. will present a lively pro-
grant regularly as soon as it is com
pleted, within two weeks. It will
"' seat 1.200. Athletics of many kinds
will be billed, notably boxing bouts
on Labor day.

educated and cosmopolitan men,
speaking English fluently.
Besides Debilly, the other members
are Colonel James Martin, Captain E.
J. P. Rouvier and Lieutenant Henri le
Compasseur Crequy Montifort de
Courtivron.
These men have all been in the
army service in France during the
greater part of the war. Some have
been incapacitated by wounds and alt
have received honorable mention for
conduct in battle.
' An automobile trip about the city
will probably be included in the en

mass meeting is to be arranged, at
which Mayor James C Dahlman is to
preside.
The Alliance Francaise of Omaha
is particularly anxious to have a part
in the entertainment of the distin
