Elmer, the camp tramp, has made friends hereabouts during his work all summer on camp construction. He believes in keeping up his contacts. THE RULE OF THUMB spoke to the women on certain phases of army regulations and told of the rules imposed on their husbands because of the war. Men of the army are here for work, not play, it was brought out, and the women hope to follow a program of work, with some social activity included. During the afternoon, the group, which numbered well over 70 wo men, planned a sewing project at the camp—sewing chevrons and buttons on the uniforms of the en listed men and officer personnel. They are also planning to aid the Red Cross group on the post and cooperate fully with the other units. Nurses aid will be offered. Tea was served at 5 o’clock when the officers came off duty, and a dance followed. SOCIAL NOTES One of the finest examples of cooperation for morale building shown the armed forces is that of the motion picture industry. On this post, as well as in others throughout the country, the best that the silver screen has to offer is available to those who enjoy this form of entertainment. The pictures are not only released | to service men just as promptly as they are to big first run theaters, but at prices that a buck private— even one who has made that $22 allotment to his wife and has taken out insurance and an authorized war bon«l allotment—can afford. Actually, by purchasing a script book, the admission charge is but 12 cents. This post has two theaters al ready in operation, with a third soon to open. Others will lie in service as needed, All are well «-quippe«l with the latest projection and sound apparatus. The screen today is not only a medium of entertainment, hut of education as well. Enjoy the movies regularly, and make spi-ciai note of what you see in news reels anil short feature subjects.
