were the corporals. It was neces

in charge of quarters and also
will take a turn as camp gate

Before the drawing was held the
enlisted men took a vote and de
cided that everyone who would go
home would chip in >1.50 apiece
and split the money up among the
men who are staying in camp.
Several of the men whose names
were drawn have found men who
are going to take their places.
Howard Lockwood is taking Ed

Crouch will take George Engel’s
place. Others may find men who
will take their places.
Besides those who were drawn,
seven men already had volunteer

Corporal Andrews will have to

will be free to go home if he so

working its way through camp for
the last two weeks is almost over.
Over four-fifths of the Battery
