For, with the sloenn of "Let's Go!" on their lips, they are entering the citizens' military training camps (or hnve already entered some of them) to take advantage of an opportunity for mental, moral and physical Improvement which will make them gunrdinna of these free and Independent states In pence time as well as war, for a training which prepares them for the duties of a good citizen as well as the duties of a good soldier.

Douglas, The history of the citizens military training camps goes back to 1913 when the first college training camps for officers were organized by the late Gen. Leonard Wood, who will always be field in grateful remembrance by Americans as the father" of the movement for adequate preparedness by voluntary military training. In 1915 he ly ul Inaugurated the Plattsburgh training camp which prep red several hundred officers for the services be so badly needed when the which were soon war. Hut It was the leosotut learned In that great con (I kl which brought about the citizens military training rump as they now exist. In 1920 the Nathmul I fence act was passed by congress and In that same year the Military Training Camps Association of America, an organization made up IU4-who had themselves enrolled In prewar campa In the four yenrs from 1913 to 1910, appealed to the War department for the establishment of campa for the voluntary training of young mefi. authorized order the National Defense acL The secretary of war, the late John W. Weeks, approved the request and an appropriate Item was Included In the budget for the next fiscal year. When the proposal wan presented to congress hy the military affairs committees It was heartily supported by James W. Wadsworth, chairman of the senate committee, and by the Inte Julius Kahn, chairman of the house both of whom remained ardent friends of the camps during succeeding years. The first appropriation was sufficient for the training of 10.900 young men at ten different centers throughout the country. The minimum age of admission was fixed at sixteen years and pluns were made for a series of three courses the Red. the White and the Rlue. giving one months train Ing In successive years. Later the minimum age was placed at seventeen and a preliminary coarse, the Itnslc, was added. Congress mode the graduates of the last, the Rlue course, eligible for examination leading to a commission In the organized reserves. The citizens military training camps have received favorable consideration by congress, which year by year has granted larger funds for their maintenance. The only difficulty hns appeared In the estimate hy the house and the senate of popular demand for this training. A constantly Increasing appropriation for this purpose has been Insufficient each year to provide room for nil the young men who desired to enroll. Camp capacity has grown from 10,000 in 1921 to 39.000 in .927, but even in this last year there were 20.000 more applications than places. In fact the totals for the-siyears show the atnnzlng fact that 158,000 young tnen hnve enrolled In these camps sincq their establishment In 1921. Ninety-sithousand more, nn average of 16.000 each year, applied for admission but could not be trained for lack of room The "call of the' camps" drew a quarter of a million young Americans to seek admission! There cun be no doubt that the growth of the camps and the numbers seeking admission each rear has come about through a greater apprecia lion by our youth and their parents of the oppor tunlty that their government. In providing font weeks training course with all expenses paid I offering them. For the attractions of the camps are varied and many and the thousand who have enrolled have done so for any one or more of the following reasons: A desire for change, for physl cal development, for athletic training, for greater capacity, for advancement as students or era plovees. or hecausb they responded to the Judg ment of men w hom they respected and to the wishes of their own parents. Athletics, no doubt, tiring a large part of the enrollment, for one of the features of the camps is s chance to participate In a large variety ot sports arid games under skilled Instructors. Thp government furnishes much necessary equipment and this is supplemented by donations from the Military Training Camps association and other patriotic societies and civic committees. Many ol the training camps are located on tbe seashore or on Inland lakes and rivers with ample opportunity for bathing and water sports. At other camps the War department has established tide quate. hygienic and attractive swimming tanks The Red Cross arranges systematic courses of instruction, leading successful candidates to final credit as life guards. Baseball diamonds and equipment are provided for ail men who seek to qualify for the company teams and to take pan in Intercompany and regimental games. Tennis courts are to be found everywhere; boxing la taught for men of every of two-mitte- bull, pushball and fencing art i an Increasing number Each of high arhonl, normal school and college football teams, sometimes with their own couches, find In the stnmi.er camps n fine opportunity for weight; voile) c equally popular. two-thlrd- yi-a- preliminary practice for their regular schedules. In the dully program they find means to greater physical vigor and control. Military drill brings proper carriage, quickness of response and exact of nerve and muscle. Mass calisthenics emphasize these qualities through rhythmic movement. Adequate, varied, nutritious and appetizing diet for thirty days loutrlhute Its share to a bodily growth, measured hy Inches of height and chest expansion and many pounds of weight. Regular hours establish a proper habit of life Systematic medical Inspection wards off any danger of undue exertion and It Is suppleuented by hospital care In case of need. Academic credit and rewards me a definite Incentive for thousands of high school and college students who always make up a large percentage of the enrollment. Boards of education in many states hare authorized high school credit for camp enrollment and a considerable numhoi of higher Institutions have recognized this training toward graduation. In addition, many military schools, public secondary schools, colleges and universities offer for competition in the citizens' military training camp of the various corps areus scholarships bearing free tuition. Most of thes are renewable, on the basis of good scholastic record, to the successful winners throughout the course. Sixty or more Institutions have united in this patriotic plan with a forecust of a total annual value of fifty thousand dollars In these scholarships within the next two or three yenrs. Economic conslderatlhns lend many young men A large and increasing to the summer training. percentage is made up of young teu from il!hs, stores and factories, who go to the camps under the expressed approval of their employers and ' with the sound conviction that a good record In the training center will he a factor in future pay and advancement. Some companies grant nn extra two weeks without wages; most give the full attendance for month with pay and a few nllo four weeks with pay in ni.'di'.mu to the usual two weeks vacation. Six years have demonstrated the value of fht citizens military training camps, for which there is no better proof than tbe increasing' desire of young men to return for a second year, coupled with the unanimous approval of parents The government stands today firm in this defi c'vlc nite policy of voluntary training physh-aand military of young men. It offers in the citizens' military training caiffp no vacation in I lit sense of purposeless squandering of time in tale lursuits or useless diversions, such as Indifferem youth may fancy. The camp schedule Is not arduous, but for every hour there Is a definite aim and occupation. Military drill fills the mornings witl short intervals for rest and for the milk period, wisely ordained for those still youths. Afternoons are devoted to a wide variety of s;orts and games, in one or more o whit h each candidate must take his part. After a long day of outdoor work and play, men welcome eagerly the recreation of the evening hours. The hostess house, under the direction of gym pa theiic and experienced women, affords the com forts and quiet enjoyment of a home or club Chess and checkers, billiards and curd games fill many a happy hour. Dances are organized ut every training center with partners furnished by committees and clubs of neighboring communities. The Liberty theater offers moving pictures with professional and amateur concerts and plays. Most camps have their own citizens militarv training camp band and sometimes their own orchestra and dramatic and debating clubs. From reveille to taps the program is full of earnest work and w liolesome recreation. Inciting each candidate to full performance of duty through the day in order better to enjoy the resulting leisure of the evening. What was a dream in the mind of Leonard Wood in the days before the great war and an experiment In the citizens' military training camp of 1921 Is now a reality ia the citizens military training camps, the call of which Is written large In the history of the past six years. l e g nicelv cooked Baked Ham With Pineapple Take a thick rut of ham froir the center, re move any surplus fat and soak In did water for an hour, drain and simmer five minutes In fresh water.

LIBERTY Bear Lake valleys Black and Whits day this year was unquestionably, according to residents here, about the most successful dairy show ever held here, and one of tha features which provided perhaps aa much food for thought to the dairy farmer was an exhibition of nine dairy cows owned in this immediate vicinity. These animals had made outstanding records in cow testing association work. PLEASANT GROVE Utah straw, berry crop now being harvested is expected to amount to 2,800.000 quArtar, as compared with 2,544,000 a year ago, according to tha estimate of Frank Andrews, agricultural statistician for tHe United States department of agriculture, released for Tuesday.

PANGUITCH A special butterfat test was run bn every can of milk taken in at the local cheese factory early in the wek. The test, taken as a check for the regular employees of the factory, showed variations of 2.2 per cent to 6.3 per cent. The factory la now receiving over 3500 pounds of milk daily, while the figure should more than double when Panguitch Lake and Hatch are put on gathering routes. EPHRAIM Recently eight cars of wool were shipped from Ephraim, totaling 353,272 pounds. Five cars of wool were purchased by James Monsen for a Philadelphia firm, while the other three cars went to Boston. They received 33 4 cents per pound and ine sale will bring about 8117,463 to Ephraim sheepmen. Four cars of ewes and lambs were recently shipped to Arch Swapp of Wolcott, Cola, by Faben and Milten Larsen. OGDEN Ogdens new airport is the scene of much activity daily, when men with tractors, graders and other equipment are at work putting the field into shape for accommodations of the airplanes, which will soon be in evidence. Present activities are under supervision of crews from the city street department, under the direction of City Street Supervisor Harold R. Tripp and City engineer Harry pub-locati- on f. Errett. OGDEN Sixty cars of Idaho fat lambs, 18,000 in number, from the districts of Ketchum, Hailey and Hill City, left for eastern markets in a special stock train recently. Twelve men left with the shipment and were given accommodations in a special coach attached to the train. The shipment was one of the largest that has ever passed through Ogden. The lambs were unloaded, fed and watered at the Union Stockyards in thi3 city. SALT LAKE What is so rare as a day in June may have properly been the lament of the city dweller during the past few days, but to those engaged in agricultural pursuits, the weather has been all to their liking. Utah ranges and crops have been greatly benefited by the storm, according to J. Cecil Alter, meteorologist in charge of the local United States weather bureau. The rainfall for the storm a measured at the Salt Lake station was .35 of an inch. CEDAR CITY Crop conditions in Cedar and Parowan valleys are well above average for this time of tha year. Although cold weather persisted unusually late this spring, the subsequent warm rains and excellent growing weather have compensated for the retarded season. The alfalfa crop promises to reach a new record and the outlook for a good alfalfa seed crop Is evident. Range conditions are above average, according to reports. The fruit crop, however, with the exception of berries, was materially damaged by late frosts. HEBER Utahs winter wheat crop is estimated by the bureau of agricultural economics of the United States department of agriculture at 3,164,000 bushels? this year, as compared with 2,888,000 bushels last year. This increase of close to 10 per cent in the Utah crop is in the face of a decrease of about 9 per cent in the nations winter wheat crop, the bureaus figures show. The nation crop estimate for 1928 is 512,252,000 bushels, wh le last years figures were 552,384,000 bushels. |
