With 75 men enlisted, and with eight

gon City's quota of citizens BOldlors
called out by tho president, arrived at
thu state ride range shortly before
noon today on a special train from the
county sent. And at once the Orep.on
City men got a tnsto of tho hardships
of war, and, also of the sweetness ot
pruiso upon the field.
Tho hardship came through the. :,ict
that the compuny members woro so
busy pltcliiiig-camp and getting ilio.r

no time for the noonday meal; the
boys being forced to wait until 6

offset to a very large degree the hun

when one of the headquarters atnff in

This Is the best arranged field

Captain Lowell E. Dlanchard, the com

evident. I shnll send men from other
companies here to see how It ought
to be done."
And thionpliout the day squads from

less favored companies do the same
thing. Tho G company camp Is Just on
the edgo of a grove of oakes, sheltered
from tho direct sun, yet not far enough
in the woods to make -necessary the
cutting down of trees or the removal
of stumps. Sixty-eight men encamped
on the sito, in eight tents outsldo of
tho officers' camp.
Beds Made of Straw.
After getting their tents up, the
Oregon City boys, with frequent hun
gry looks at their kitchen, spent the
time stuffing straw Into mattress bags
and In splitting wood for "cookie." A
large pllo of lire loss near the field
stove gave them ample opportunity for
Industry: and aa the wood waa far
from klln-drled, the repeated cry of
"cookie" spurred the men on to re
newed vigor.
"Cut It fine," Bald the presiding offi
cer of the range. "Cut It fine or you
wilt have to eat hard boiled potatoes."
And the boys fell to with a will and
"cut It fine"; afterwards mounting
guard over the Inviting pile of neatly
split wood, so that no passing maraud
ers from other companies would ap
propriate It.
Oregon City's men did no drilling on
bllizatlon camp arrived, the Oregon
City boys lined up In front of their
camp and watched the newcomers with

other soldiers bore themselves were
frequent, and bantering greetings were
tossed back and forth. Many of the

the "rookies" wore citizen's clothes

fact that many of the new arrivals did

their own footgear, caused comment
among the Oregon City men, each one
