BARRACK HOMES
IS COMPLETED

 

(Continued from first page.)

......—

eloquently for the genius or persons
who laid the plans for the training
station.

The cantonment is ready for New
England's contribution to the Army of
Democracy.

That single statement is the story
of the biggest achievement this coun—
try has ever seen in construction of
such nature, accomplished at a speed
undreamed of; an achievement tre-
mendous enough to be beyond the
belief of any who have not watched
with their own eyes the creation of
a wooden city of burrack homes for
40.000 on sandy hillsides and fields
which were covered with scrub;
growth and trees. unteuanted, scarce-
ly broken by wood roads, nine weeks
ago. .

They switched on the electric
lights for the first time Thursday
night. and out of the darkness flashed
a dream city, man-made magic, thous-
ands of windows blinkingvinto exist-
ence. a bright vision rolling back over
the hills like a dozen-terraced Ccttey
Islands.

New England had beaten tho rest
of the country; its Cantonment hail
raced to a Iinish ahead of the other
15 in the speed contest started by
the War Department last June.

Before next Sunday more than 2,000
men. the “first 5 per rent.” will be
housed at Camp llevalts, the first to
get \into the. New England division of
the National Artuy. the first to go
into training in America's new army.

A civilian army has built the home
for a soldier army. It was a civilian
job. That is the story. The limitless
possibilities of American brains. busiv"
ness organization. labor organization.

ean materials from forests and factor,

the same age.

it was of a frequent visitor. u wholan

one. day displaying a French war wed-l

asked the. why of it be. ex ttiltotl that:
he had filled all order for bu French}
government. so promptly and so calls-i
tactot-lly that they bcsmycd the wan
medal.

But the American government
doesn’t bestow war medals often. and
never on civilians: and there wore no
ceremonies itt taking over the canton-
mcnt from its builders.

The army of workmen. which has
numbered 9.000 and more during the
last few weeks. started moving out
Tuesday ttt the rate of [too or more a
.lay, and lilo l‘lattsbnrg otilccrs and
the divisional staff have moved into
the. building without a word.

Nor has this array of workmen bad
words wasted on it; it has come, work,

nine weeks, fit most bases: taken its
[at pay envelopes—lust week‘s payroll
tas $13.tltltl~~-llved in the woodcut
sheds which will be burned dowtri
probably. within a few weeks and is,
looking now for other jobs. i

As a mixed crowd of 9.000 workers
as you could itttaglnc, it has been an
commonly l‘rcc trout labor troubles,
and it is not too much to think that
more than a few of them knew some-
thing about patriotism as well as pay.

Their bit is nearly 000 buildings
completed, 25 miles of water and

more utilcs of teicphonc and electric

Some 16.000 000 feet of lumber will

last. of. the smaller buildings is up.

At present, you may count, it you
wish, 190 company barracks, 74 oili-
cers' barracks, 300 large and small
luvatorics, 10 regittteutal headquar‘

ating plant, and post-office buildings.

houses, religious and recreational
buildings and other detached struc-

Altogether“ there will be some 1,100
