My Denr : You will note by the above that my address Is changed. I am now n cun dldute. I am u candidate for a com mission. It was very unexpected particularly on my part. As near us I cun figure out, It was decided to or ' guulze u training camp over here on the lines of those In the states and give the fellows who enlisted early or who were in the original army a .. chance. All the regiments Over here were Invited to send u certain quotu ' and I wns one 'of Ave from my regi- ' ment We train three months, accord ing to program, under more or less actuul war conditions, and, If we pass at the end of that time, get shoulder straps. I only got hei'e yesterday. I am ii private entirely surrounded by t military talent. A sort of an island. There Is only one other private In the school. - There are men here who were in 1 the training camps in the states and : quit to get over here quick, men who chased Paneho Villa in Mexico, men who have been in the trenches and explored Mo Mun's Land, and scr , geunts, top sergeants and sergeant majors who have been In the regular army for years. But there is no one over thirty-two., I ura closer to the ; front than I was before, by a good , many miles so close that it is begin- ning to look blamed businesslike. I wns talking to one of the fellows who was In the trenches this morn ing. They don't go Into details, but say that It Isn't so uncomfortable, j 'They are firm in the belief that when i ;the Americans start they will keep going. In the quiet sector they were j ; THE STORY GF THE CAMP PASTOR (Continued from page G.) more in the same hopeless plight J ns this boy. The lad looked the Y. , M. C.

Ready to illo for his country and not fit .a to do that! ! And as I thought of his sad an-;' swer my eye rested again on tho.se ;i ' reverent boys before me who were preparing themselves for battle by i commemorating the Lord's death,,, and renewing their allegiance to ' Him. i "The best soldier." said Major- ' General O'Ry.ui, "is the soldier with l a religion."

Do not wait until Spring and Summer when you arc buried with work niid worried with lnbor shortage, but build your graneries now. You can buy the lumber and roofing paper for a first-class 1000 bushel portable granary for .$f,1.58 and it will last for yearn. Sacks for the same amount of grain will cost you .$125.00 and this would be u dead loss against this year's crop. A granary of this size can be moved anywhere nnd can be filled fiircctly from the thresher, doing away with high priced labor handling nnd sewing sacks. The boys in the trenches need the sacks for sand hags for the protection of their very lives nnd perhaps your boy is among them. Spend your money in your own valley by buying lumber manufactured at home. When you buy" sacks part of the money goes to India. BUILD YOLR GRANARIES NOW Ec prepared by building them before the farming season opens up. Be cure to get good lumber, well seasoned, as low grade lumber wiil give, you trouble in a few seasons. Don't Use green lumber. Save money keep what you spend nt home prevent loss nnd damage from exposure to weather leave the sacks for our boys in the trenches; help win the war by building granaries now. Portable granaries of this type nre universally used in other sections. One trip with a good team will haul the ma terial for one granary.
