A DEMOCRATIC ARMY
The charge of "slacking" does not
lit against sons of members of the
nfRWal rimll In Washington. One
of the president's sons-in-law Is In

HTI1.M hiva tliMa anna AS r In thn
service. Josephus Daniels Jr., Is In
the marine corps. Franklin K. Lane,
Jr., In the army ablation corps,
Darid F. Houston, Jr., In the navy
and Humphrey Redfield in the naval
reserve. Young Houston slipped
away from Harvard to enlist
John Sharp Williams, the bril
liant democrat from Mississippi, is
not one of those who fear that fa
voritism plays a part In the selec
tion of men for commissions at of
ftcers training camps. His two sons
took the course at Fort Myer, both
failed to land commissions and both
are ready to enter the service else
where. Senators Sutherland and Under

more than SO miles.
Ten general warehouse with the
necessary trackage, have been pro
vided for each camp. Oompleti re
frigerating and laundry camp have
also been built for each cntoument.
It was necessary to o ipte on
an average of one building per hour,
for all the cantonments, an average
of one building every four minutes.
Fifty thousand car loads of material
have been transported to the camp
sites at a time when the railroad fa
cilities were taxed to the utmost with
other traffic. Each camp has re
quired the building and installation
of a transmission line for electric
current. At one camp this line was
80 miles long.
The belief among many American
statesmen that this country need
never go to war proved fallacious,
but the belief that the nation would
rise , promptly and energetically to
meet any emergency has proven well
founded. 1
"What does. f. o. b. mean?" asked
the fair typist, as she looked at one
of the circulars urging people to
provide food f. o. b. the kitchen
door.
"It's n abbreviation made up to
show folks how Important It is to
save food for the use of our sol
diers," said the young woman at the
next desk, with an earnestness that
betokened her good faith. "It means
feed our boys and it's mighty
good."
