AND CANTONMENTS Soldiers Live in 16 Cities, Bach As Large As New Britain This is the second of a series of articles an America’s war preparations secured from offi- cial government sources by the Connecticut State Council of Defense. They will be given out, two each week, for sev- eral weeks. These articles will be as complete and informative as military requirements will permit. -_— The beginning of winter finds the Wwork of training gaing on in full blast in a hundred camps ang stations. Not far from half of the total num- ber of men training are encamped in the big National Army cantonments. In these the United States has 16 new cities, each as large as New Britain. Sixteen camps, nearly as big as the cantonments, but not built so durably, are housing the National Guard divi- sions. Two hundred and fifty thousand men have joined the regulars since the war broke out. There are 17 reg- ular army stations and camps being used for the training of these recruits. Seventeen stations are engaged in training men for the Navy, and ma- rines are being turned out in three more. Not all the aviation fields have been finished—but in a dozen of them cool- headed young men are being taught to fight in the air. Nine camps have just rounded off the second increment of officers for the reserve corps. Five medical camps are in opera- tion, and three camps for engineers. All of the larger camps have been | built in the past six months. The big- gest of them, the National Army can- tonments, were built in three months at a total cast of $150,000,000. Only a little over twice as much was re- quired to build the Panama Canal— and that took ten years. Something between six hundred and seven hundred millions of feet of lumber went into the National Army cantonments. The figure for all the army camps is about one billion feet. In population the camps range from the 300 to 47,000. The men in a fly- ing camp may know one another as men know one another in a small col- lege. One of the larger cantonments, on the other hand, contains more men than can be crowded into the Palo Grounds cr Comiskey Park. A good average crowd for a world’s scries game is 30,000. Such a crowd is enough to swamp a half a dozen car lines. All the men in one of the National Army cantonments -would make a crowd half again as large. Living conditions in the camps may not be quite up to the top of the high American standard.

Tuesday next has been designated by ‘the Red Cross campaign commit- tee as Red Cross day in the public schools. Through Superintendent Holmes of the public schools and the vrincipals of the parochial schools, the committee will request that the Red Cross message be brought to all the school children, who may carry it into their homes. Tt is hoped that some of the progressive teachers will arrange special exercises in the schools. The Red Cross bulletin board is in place on Central Park today and Court street will head the honor roll. This is very appropriate as the Red Cross headquarters are located there. Arrangements are being made by Gen- eral Manager C. H. Barnes for cam- | paign headquarters on Main street. | Announcement will be made just as soon as it is absolutely certain that the desired store can be secured. Chairman H. V. Camp of the pub- licity committee sent out a letter to- day to the heads of the various schools asking them to co-overate in arrang- ing for fitting exercises on Red Cross school day. Word has been received hy Manager Barnes from the National Red Cross campaign bureau that films | twill be furnished for the theaters during Red Cross week. HEALTH OF GERMANY, Medical Journal Tells of The Condi- tion of Army and Navy. Copenhagen. Dec. 12.—(Corre- spondence).—The health statistics of the German army and navy, as pub- lished in the German medical jour- nals, show that the percentage of ill- ness among both soldiers and sailors is steadily decreasing. In the army, the number of cases of iliness is now about twenty per cent. lower than in the first year of war. For the navy, very complete reports are published, indicating that the number of cases of illness per thousand men is about 26 per cent. lower than in peace time. “Diseases of the organs of nutri- tion” furnish more patients in the naval hospitals than any other single cause, but it is stated that the num- ber even of these cases shows a steady improvement, falling from 78 per 1,000 men in peace times to 56. Tuberculosis shows a slight increase, but other diseases of the respiratory organs have decreased very largely. Nervous disease has decreased slight- ly; diphtheria has almost disappeared; scarlet fever shows a slight increase. Ten Million New Members by—‘ Christrdas. All you need is a Heart and a Dollar.

You are not likely to have a complete conviction that you are buying the right instrument for your home until you have seen and heard the Columbia Grafonola. Whatever the price that you feel ready to pay, you will find in the Columbia Grafonola a model of such substantial value that you will" have to give it a place in your consideration. From the lowest-priced Grafonola at $18 to the handsome cabinet instrument at $250, Columbia instruments invite and welcome comparison. ia The customer who calls only at a Columbia Grafonola store is sure to be pleased when he hears the Columbia. The customer who hears many instruments is convinced on hearing the Columbia that ‘“That’s the one we want.”’ Tl B ) (% BRODRIB & WHEELER, 138 Main Street. L. A. GLADDING, 4 Chestnut Street. T.
