Have you considered joining' the camp of instruction to be conducted, by the Western department of the United States Army at American Lake, Wash., from August 14 to September 9? If not. It is time you are giving: the mat ter attention, for wideawake, patriotic men of the Northwest have begun to enroll already. For a total cost of $10, to be applied to the purchase of food extras, nearly a. month of outdoor life, health-giving and entertaining' may be enjoyed by the tired business man at beautiful Amer ican Lake. Regular hours and. life In the open are guaranteed to do wonders for the rundown man of affairs. Purpose of Camp Is Training. Of course, the camp is not Intended for a health resort. That It has the effect of one 1b a fortunate circum stance. Incidental to its real purpose. The purpose, as Is generally under stood. Is to help properly qualified men to fill the great deficiency in officers and non-commissioned officers that would Immediately arise in case of Na tional emergency, by giving them four weeks of intensive military Instruction In the field under regular officers, and with troops of the Regular Army. The call is for business and profes sional men, chiefly because they are men of educational attainment. The camp is"far from snobbish in fact. Teal- democracy Is closer approached in the training camp than anywhere. Tet the demand is for men who have an educa tion that will render them capable of properly discharging the duties of of ficers in caso of emergency. Colonel Gardener Interested. Colonel Cornelius Gardener, of the United States Army, retired, is a Port land man actively interested In the Rummer camp this year. He has of fered his services to any body of men who may be interested in the camp to explain the purposes and organization. He will present the matter shortly be fore the University Club here and prob ably will be Invited to address Port land's various civic organizations. The War Department has seen fit in this Summer camp to allow contingents of men from societies, clubs, or similar organizations, who desire to attend the camp In a body, to be quartered, to gether, and to eat at the same mess tables. Thus, any body of men may plan their vacation at the camp and en Joy not only the privileges of military training and healthful life but the as sociation of their friends. Bulletins - Are Available. How does one make arrangements to attend? Easy. Write for application blanks and explanatory bulletins to The Officer in Charge, Military Training Camps, Headquarters Western Depart ment, 216 Pine street, San Francisco.

Patriotism Is Instilled. In addition to the purpose of provid ing officers for the volunteer army In case of National necessity, the camp has as its purpose the fostering of a patriotic spirit and spreading among the citizens of the country some knowledge of military history, military policy and military needs. Also the camp of Instruction plans to Instill in four weeks of healthy out door life the habits of obedience, dis cipline, command and self-control that are the prerequisites of efficiency In every business or profession, and to send men back from the camps better prepared to take care of themselves and of others. The former cost of the enrollment In the camp was $30, exclusive of cloth ing. By recent act of Congress, the War Department has been authorized to furnish rations, uniforms and trans portation free, and, though a deposit of $15 is required, only $10 applies to actual expenses, the remaining $5 being to cover any loss of damage to Gov- ernment property. Educators Approve Cimp, The value of the instruction camps Is fully appreciated by the heads of Amer ica's universities. The following is the report of the advisory committee of university presidents on the Summer military instruction camps for stu dents: These camps have now teen In operation for three successive Summers. In their growth and admirable management during the past two Summer of 1014 and 1015 they have more than fulfilled the expecta tions of those Indorsing them, based on the firs year's experience in the Summer of 1913. The camps of 1&13 and 1914 were held before the breaking; out of the great war abroad, which has brought into greater prominence than before their value to the Katiou. We repeat the hearty Indorsement given In our reports on the camps helI in 1913 and 1914. This year they were visited by a number of the members of our committee, and the committee as a whole has given attention and thought to their educational usefulness in the Summer season. The students attending are under care ful oversight. The excellence of food, sani tation and medical care has been well main tained. The students have an ideal five weeks' outing, pleasurable and beneficial to them, and the Instruction, drill, cavalry ex ercises, field maneuvers, field surveying and field work generally give them In the con tlnuous five weeks training an Insight into inilitary matters. They are, in. addition to this regular work, given ample time for recreation and rest. Benefits Are Many. We commend the camps to the authori ties and students of the universities and colleges of the country. "VVe believe that the training and Instruction which the students attending receive not only em phasize the dangers and losses of wars lightly , and unpreparedly entered into, but we also believe that the training given la excellent and a great benefit, mental and physical, to the students attending.
