TRIP TO STYX. 1 did not get down to Styx when the ?oklii-rs were encamped there before jgoing to the border. When I saw they were to come back to be dis charged from Styx 1 decided to make a trip there, because I wanted to see the camp and more particularly be cause I wanted to see his moth<B$* baby boy who is a member of Co. K, First regiment. To tell the truth, I didn't want him to enlist, but now I am glad that he did. It has been worth a whole lot to him in many "ways. It gave him an oportunotv to #ee something of the country, but more than that it has developed him physically and given him an experi ence and a training which will be valuable all his life. i Snnririv mnrniTip' T hitched un 111 and got my mascot and a little after o'clock we were in the road for the ^jcamp. tW'e drove into Columbia a j ?* little before 12 o'clock and entrained j immediately for the camp. When we I got there we found that the boy had J come over to the city. He said af terward that he did not look for inej because he knew he would be home on Wednesday, if he had been expect ing me he would not have left camp.j Well, he didn't know how bad 1 want- > ~ I ed to see him and how glad I am | that he is back and that he is looking j so well and hearty. I was pleased j to have the voluntary statement from j his captain, Mr. Henderson, that he' fcad made good as a soldier and that j he had hen commended not only by j the officers of the national ?uafli but j also by officers of the regular army. Well, I knew he would make good. It is a way t&ese Anils have. They can't help it. He made good as a lino- j type operator and in everything lie j has undertaken. Pardon this person-1 al reference and if you are not in- j terested just "6kip it" and read some thing else. : i ) The boys are all looking \yell and! in conversation with a regular army j officer he said their experience would J be \ orth thousands of dollars to th ? j State for Uncle Sam had given them; a line training and improved their; physical condition and had made bet-! ter citizens of them. I guess he is! correct. They all look neat and, healthy and that uniform that the gov-1 ernment *iow uses is handsome and] comfortable. This officer said that1 We are determine this year.
