Men Entrain For Camp Pike

107 Respond To Country's Call Thursday

Were In Happy Mood

Left on 3:35 M. & St. L. Train South Thursday Afternoon -- Large Crowd and Procession.

     One Hundred and seven men from Humboldt county took the M. & St. L. train south, Thursday afternoon, for Camp Pike, Arkansas, where they will train for their country's service.  The men were given an excellent dinner by the Red Cross and Commercial club, were presented with souvenirs, and given every attention that has heretofore been bestowed on United States army men.
     Owing to the fact that the entertainment came at the press hour of this paper, the description of events are necessarily somewhat curtailed.  However, you may be sure Humboldt county left nothing undone to show her appreciation of the boys who go, who are to go, or who are at the front.
