out to the field we go for a good
morning of drill. After drill there
Is a rest period which comes in
Terr handv for the boys with
blistered feet.
It keeps the. boys very busy
changing from one uniform to the
other. Tbev work a while in the
work clothes then it's time to
change back to their drill uni
forms. ...
The boys sleep between wool
blankets and it is hard to get used
to it for the first week. Each tent
has a small store, which comes

coats to keep them dry. When it
rains here it really rains and it
makes a lot of noise on the tents.
Last night it mounded as though
all of the tents in camp were go
