MILTON, Fla., July 29.-Six Milton and Bagdad boys leave tonight for a month's service in the Citizen's Military Training Camp at Camp McClellan, near Anniston, Ala.
These six young men are Messrs. Ellis Williams, Jennings Harvell, Herman Lynn, Lamon Thornton and Tom Gentry of Milton and C. J. Sampley of Bagdad.
This will be their first year in camp, for all except Ellis Williams who spent a month in the camp last year and Jennings Harvell who spent a year in the regular army.
Milton is justly proud of these boys and expects nothing less of them than conduct worthy of real soldiers of the greatest nation on earth-the United States of America.
