This is the first day of the 40th annual encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic, which is to continue throughout the week, and despite the fact that the soldiers are 80 fapldly lessening in numbers, it promises to be one of the most suc- cessful ever held. Aside from the en- campment itself, there will be annual meetings of the many affiliated so- cieties, such as the Woman's Relief corps, Ladies of the Grand Army, Daughters of Veterans, and an almost infinite number of military organiza- tions.
