Fdoneer Mexican settlers in this state

very palatable. The Mexican pink

MIKING LIFE PLEASANT
FOR GAMP LEWIS i!5
CAMP LEWIS, Tacoma, Wash.,
March 9.—With the opening of the
Liberty theater in this army canton
ment, and the receipt of several thou
sand smileage books by enlisted men
j from relatives and friends, the sol
| dier’s life at Camp Lewis has been
brightened by innumerable smiles
j which otherwise never would have
I been registered. Heretofore the men
have depended entirely on their own
informal smokers and vaudeville acts
for entertainment in camp, but the
same talent for five months begins to
Jag.
The Liberty theater at Camp Lewis
was erected under the supervision of
the commission on training camp ac
tivities in national army cantonments
and is similar to those built in the
i other military centers of the country.
; The seating capacity of 2.500 is taxed
j every night. Two performances are
j usually given to accommodate the
soldiers.
| Immediately after mess each eve
ning hundreds of men can be seen
bound for the Liberty. The several
ticket offices cannot handle the
crowds rapidly enough to prevent lines
forming and sometimes there are sev
eral of these, each radiating in a dif
ferent direction like the spokes of a
huge w'heel. The uniformed men pour
into the building by the hundreds, yet
the lines do not seem to diminish.
The first performance starts at 6jp. in.
The interior of the theater a sim
1 flar to a big auditorium, wiith-» -^d
floor, and solid pine benches. There
is a spacious orchestra pit, a largo
stage and a moving picture screen
The orchestra consists of twenty-two
, pieces. The musicians are al! sol
I diers. The programs vary from class
ical concerts to moving pictures depict
ing the antics of the favorite screen
comedians.

NOW THE “BALLO” BEAN
SANTA EE, N. M„ March 9. The
, “pinto” bean, w hich has sprung into
considerable prominence through the
I efforts of its growers to have it made
! a standard part of the army ration,
j lias a rival in the shape of the "hallo”
| bean. The “hallo” bean is said to be j
i at least as good for table use as the 1
j pinto and has other points which it is i
j said commend it particularly to the I
j fainter in the semi-arid country. The |
j name is pronounced "by-yo" and is a1
term generally applied to a horse of j
a buckskin color. The bean is sup-,
i posed to take its name from its color j
! resemblance to buckskin.

HUNKA TIN
\ on may talk about your voltures
When you're sitting 'round the Quar
ters,
Hut when it comes to getting wounded
in.
Take a little tip from me,
Lot those heavy motors be.
Pin you faith to Henry F’s old Hunka
Tin.
Give her essence and de l’eau
Crank her up and let her go.
You back-firin', spark plug foulin’
Hunka Tin!
The paint is not so good.
And no doubt you'll find the hood
Will rattle like a boiler shop en route.
The cooler’s sure to boil,
And perhaps she's leakin’ oil;
Then often times the horn declines to
toot.
But when the night s black,
And (here’s wounded to take back.
And they hardly give you time to take
a smoke.
It's mighty good to feel.
When you're sitting at the wheel.
Shc‘11 be running when the bigger cars
are broke.
After all the wars are past,
And we’re taken borne at last
To our reward of which the preacher
sings,
When these ukulele sharps
Will be strumming golden harps,
And the aviators all have regular
wings,
When the kaiser is in hell,
With the furnace drawing well
Paying for his million different kinds
of sin,
If they’re running short of coal,
Show me how to reach the hole.
And I’ll cast a few loads down with
Hunka Tin.
Yes, Tin! Tin! Tin!
You exasperatin’ puzzle, Hunka Tin!
I’ve abused you and I’ve flayed you,
But by Henry Ford, who made you,
You’re better than a Packard,
Hunka Tin!
Hunka Tin! —Ex
SHIPMENT OF ELK
TO BE STOPPED

CHEYENNE. Wyo., March 9.—Ship
ments of elk from Wyoming to other
states will be stopped if the state
game warden, Nate 'Wilson, has his
way. Mr. AA’ilson recommends that
the exportation of the animals be j
given up because in capturing them,
only those which are "ranch broke”
are caught. These, he says, are the |
most dependent of the herds upon
man, because when they find grazing
short on the range where they happen
to lie they break fences and eat ranch
ers' feed supplies.
