Camp Adair Sentry » ~ ' This War Takes Grandfather Excused From Other War Because He Was Father of Two Yes. this is quite a war. Want a concrete example to prove it? Well, then, this war has drawn into the army a grandfather with three grandchildren—a man who was excused from the other war because he had two children at the time. He is Pvt. Herman Pace, and he is right here at Camp Adair, But there is another fact which partly weakens the ease of Pace. Possibly this war is not so different after all. For John William Pace, his son, is being excused from this war because he has two children. The elder Pace married at 18. That makes it easier to understand how he happens to be a grand­ father at 45. His son is 24 and a daughter is 25. She is Mrs. Charles Hamlin, wife of a Canadian offi­ cer. The grandchildren are John I William Paee, Jr., Herman Pace, and Margaret Ann Hamlin. Pvt.
