Here a warm welcome was always waiting for the CMTC student, who made it his club. Equipped with plenty of lounges and chairs, writing and card tables, piano, victrola and a cafe, it was equal to the best of clubs. Miss Jessie M. Goodwin, the Camp Hostess, assisted by Mrs. Flora Camp, was in charge. and to them we are indebted. lt is needless to say that in a camp of two thousand students a hostess must possess rare qualifications to conduct her share of CMTC training. Miss Goodwin, assisted by Mrs. 'Winkler and Mrs. Camp, was in charge of the four dances in the camp period. Girls were provided by her from nearby towns, through the agency of the Y. XV. C. A. and similar organizations. M O V I E S Camp Holliday was not without its movie housen. A well equipped theatre has been built at Fort Sheridan and during the CMT Camp two shows were held each night. The cost of admission during the week days was fifteen cents, and twenty-five cents on Sundays. Among the pictures shown was Old Ironsidesn, featuring Charles Farrell and NVallace Beeryg Norma Shearer proved popular with the boys in her picture.

Under the operation of the Quartermaster's Corps, the Work of the laundry is supervised by the Laundry Ofhcer, who in turn is responsible to the Quartermaster General. liach man in the Army is allowed 51.75 per month for laundry, and the work of the laundry is done at almost actual cost. During the month of the CMTC the laundry washed amounted to II,S68 bundles, a total of 225,800 pieces. T H E P O S T H 0 S P I T A L The hospital contributes a great deal of service to the CMTC. A record is kept of the physical examination of all men who come to the camp, which may be useful for future reference. Typhoid inoculations and smallpox vaccinations are completed. Facilities are available also for the proper care of any injury or illness which may arise. A special ward has been set aside for the CMTC students, with female nurses in attendance. Although these ample hospital accommodations have scarcely been needed during this camp, it is well that they are provided, as the best way to avoid trouble is to provide against it.
