ALL ABOARD FOR BERLIN SPECIAL

CITIZENS WILL WATCH DEPAR- . TURE OF CONSCRIPTS SATURDAY MORNING. Twenty-five selects are today resting on their oars, restless conscripts they are, for they are anxiously awaiting the arrival of the 10:55 train Saturday morning which is to take them from civilian life and place them in the Camp Taylor cantonment at Louisville, Ky., where they are to don the khaki of Uncle Sam. Each man has placed the last necessary article in his grip and the only thing that remains for him to do it to bid the “home folk” goodbye. No doubt there will be a big turnout of citizens at the depot when the boys leave Saturday to give them a send-off. The boys will appreciate their kindness and well-wishes, but ask /that they be sent away with a smile instead of tears. So just give them a pat on the back, wish them luck, and let it go at that, and the boys will appreciate it greatly.
