The seven weeks in army man-

so bad, but they were glad they
were over. Things in general have
improved since the maneuvers end-

are better. The food was alrtght,
but is better now as the cooks are
more experienced, having been
given training in cooking. A
church for each regiment is under
constrnction, and a recreation hall
for each company and a field

Everett is with service Battery
