■DOW wras OF
MOVEMENTS DF TROOPS
A Cordovan received a letter in the
last mail from our former twonsman,
John Hrabazon, who i3 at Camp Mills,
Long Island, New YisrL, in which he
gives the following interesting infor
mation :
“We are very busy packing up to
be ready to go in a day. In fact, we
have orders to be ready to sail within
two hours’ notice. A groat battle is
waging over there now. . . . It is
not very pleasant to think of starting
out, but we are all anxious to go.
“They are shipping 50,000 troops a
week from this coast, and expect to
send 65,000 this week. They handle
from 35,000 to 45,000 a week in this
camp. Some nights you will see 10,
000 men marching out, and 25,000 men
to camp in one day since we have
been here. This is what they eall a
rest camp, but I have not seen any
rest here yet. They keep you moving
all the time.
“We saw eight airplanes in one flock
start out to search for the subs that
are around New York. I counted
twenty-eight in the air at one time.
This is the final test camp for the
aviators. They pull off some pretty
good stunts, and I wish I was in their
branch. Give my best wishes to all
of my friends.”

HERE’S EXAMPLE OF
GERMAN HUMOR
Every effort is being made in Ger.
many to delude the people about the
size and importance of the American
army. A “joke” printed by the Mu
nich Jugend is part of the official pro
paganda. It is entitled “Homeopathic
Doses” and consists of the following
bit of dialogue at a French port:
“General Pershing: ‘Well, another
fleet of American troop transports has
just arrived.’
“LaBelle France: ‘Superb; shall I
arrange for billets?’
“General Pershing: ‘Sure; two
rooms and three beds.’ ”
