Boys of the Goodyear Cotton Co,, Inc., Fred Miller, formerly of Dn!v“le. now in the quartermaster’s corps, makes it clear that army life isn’t bad at ail and that -Uncle Sam is seeing to it thlt his boys in khaki are well fed and cared for. Incidentally, Mr. Mil- Jer's Jetter indicates that sotuthern camps offer some opportunities in the way of menus that are not always du- plicated in the camps in the north. He writes: It probably will be of interest to you to know how Uncle Sam feeds his men at this camp. For dinner last Sunday we had roast little pigs, mashed potatoes, lettuce, celéry, green peas, green onions, strawberries, lemonade, ice cream and cigars. 'This, have a large mess fun meals ¢ always good, extm good, and we get grapefruit and cereal with sugar and real milk for breakfast ev- ery morning.
