Rev. On the word George, servic of Rev. James H. Jr, just back from a month of in a khakl uniform at the pre- paredness camp at Plattsbur; the man who goes in for the ence that the army officers have ar- ranged for those who venture into the summer service is in for a period of real grilling work, with no let up from morning until night. It is a strenuosity from the minute you ceive your welcoming greeting re- until they are telling you farewell and “we hope you will be with us again vear.” Brown as a berry and hard as nalls, Rev. Mr. George is all enthusiasm over the great system that is in_force at the camp. Into a month of service, he says, the army officers in charge try to crowd the knowledge and ex- perience of three years in the regular army service, and while they may not accomplish just this cbject, they do get wonderful results and make the word efficiency a paramount and ever pres- ent_thought. From the first notes of the stirring reveille in the morning until taps sounds over the camps at night, the day is one continuous round of tduties —duties that ‘est the physical stam- ina and mental keenness of those who earnestly desire to be prepared to serve their country in any crisis_that may arise. ‘There is no letup. Tt is no place for a slacker. the day provides for no leisure hours, nor soclal enterprises. “I didn’t make a close friend while T was at Plattsburg,” says Rev. D George “I dldn't have time. Of course, T kne» the members of my compan: of the Sixth—and many others about e camp:; but as for getting real friendly with any particular one, there | was no opportunity.
