Indications today are "that a

fit dame, for the locul national
guard company, will be held under
the uuspiees of the d'nlon County
Chniuber of Commerce.
The local unit will have for
Camp Jackson, at Medford, Thurs
day morning on a spuria) train,
which will arrive here, early in the
morning, lor two weeks encamp
ment. The reason Tor I he benefit is
that local organiwiltonH wish to
furnish "Hie boys with an extra
pood hi'-ss cook while at camp."
It i.s slated. In order to do this,
some one must be taken for a two
weeks job and this will cntnll
iutte a hit of expense.
When the company gets to work
at Camp Jackson, it is anticipated
that appetites will increase, pos
sibly beyond army rations and in
addition to the mess cook, it is
planned to raise enough funds to
enable Ihe lM Grande boys to pur
chase extra rations with.
