You’ll agree that a t^phooe

is unsi^tly and awkward to
use—but did you know that
it can also seriously fffeet
service?
Hie conductor in your telo>
phcme cord is composed of
scores of diread‘lilm wires.
Hiey are very durable and,
with normal use, will last In
definitely. But knots and
kinks create an unnatoxal
and intensified friction
which is apt to break sooi^
of diese tiny wires. When
diis occurs, it csuses an un
pleasant, static-like noise oq

Keqi your telephone free

About twenty guests wore present

Monday morning we again left
Camp Stewart on another of our
well-loved and exercising hikes
throu^ the marsh lands of Georgia,’
and we still can’t understand how
Sherman marched his troops through
our beloved swamps in such a short
time. If they had taken some of the
routes we have there is a great pos
sibility that diey still would be wad
ing around here. But aa time comes
and goes we are getting more used to
just wandering around and wonder
ing when and if we are going to quit
pretending to be in war and get into
it Naturally, we don’t want war, but
when it starts to endanger our coun
try and our loved ones, then we are
ready for anything *Bfr. Hitler can
throw at us, and in the meanthne
we have quite a few surprises we
will presMit him. There isn’t a man
(or boy) in camp who wouldn’t
fight, and be proud to, imtil every
oimce of stroigth has left his body.
Of course, die army in one sense is
Dke a barrel of apples, there are al
ways one or two rotten ones in the
crowd. Hitler is no fool; we have
to give credit where credit is due
(eVen though we hate to). He is more
or less a genius, but, to quote “Pic”
magazine, “Mr. Hitler, the English
channel is only 22 miles wide, and
you can’t or haven’t yet crossed it,
and there is 3,000 miles of water be
tween (iermany and America. Just
how l(mg do you think it would take
ydu to cross that?—^Never.”
Here in Camp Stewart we are en
joying picnics (hikes), sunshine and
sleep; IRRougn trtr afe'Stm sleeping
undenieath big comforts ynd blan
ker because at night it really tiuns
cold. We have been using gas masks
\^idi we carry with us at all times
we are on duty. Our siunmer uni
forms have been given out and our
winter clothes are about to be placed
until next winter.
• We of the 107th Sep. Bn. have
started a small weekly newspaper
with which, so far, we are doing
nicely. Three of our boys from Clin
ton lottery “B” have been elected to
positions on the'staff. They are C. B.
Kirkley, typist; W. G, Somerville, re
porter, and John Hopper Cranford,
Jr., associate editor.
Each week SgX. Ross returns from
home he has enough food to feed an
army and practically does, because
he spreads the provisimu out on a
table and invites everyone to enjoy
it with him. Usually everyone takes
him up on it.
It seems as if everyone in camp is
eligible to catch guard duty, even
our mess Sgt. Foster has caught it,
and supply Sgt. Warren hasn’t long
befme his turn.
We have heard rumors of Clinton
forming a Home Guard, and we ex
tend to them our best widies and
hope that they are never called on
to do federal service. But if they are
we feel assured that we woiild have
a-strong second Une of defense. Joe
Terry, Jr., puts in his application for
bugler. He is willing to make a sac
rifice and le^ive Battery “B” for the
hmne guard.
At the time of this writing we have
exactly 9 months, 24 days, 17 hours,
39 minutes and RS seconds until our
year is over and we will return to
our honv^s—unofficial.
