CAMP PUBLICITY OFFICE
Camp Travis Texas
October IS 191S
Camp Travis Texas October 21 Offering
a chance to gratify patriotism
sentiment and service in one act Brigadier
Gen George H Estcs commanding
officer of the Cactus Divisjoi Has issued
a request for cactus plants to ho
jtilirod as symbols and in beoutifvinR
the grounds of tbe great army cantonment
at Camp Travis Texas where the
division now is training
In furtherance of the cactus idea
General Estes is planning to have Camp
Travis decorated throughout with the
native herbage Walks arc to be bor
dered with cactus eactus will be grown
in window boxes and other places whero
it will serve as ornamentation For
this purpose the adjacent territory will
bo scoured for rare species The soldiers
would not have to go far from
their barracks to obtain a large supply
of tbe ordinary kind but in various
parts of Texas and Oklahoma are to be
found rarer and more attractive varieties
Their shipment to Camp Travis
vrill be appreciated
However in order to prevent a de1
luge of any one kind and to prevent
shipments going astray tho e who help 1
supply the division with the coveted
plants are asked to write to the Camp
Publicity office at Camp Travif giving
f 7n 4est f4ion of the variety for gift
and how much can be secured Instructions
for shipment then will be sent
When bristling with bayonets the
khnkielad Cactus Division goes dashing
into action besido the Stars and
Stripes will float a banner bearing the
counterpart of the suggestive Texas
cactus and the significant motto
NOLLE ME TANGEliE
And it will not take an advanced student
of latin to translate this motto
into its English equivalent Touch Mo
Not Like the Cactus designation
for tho ISth Division this motto has
been selected by Brig Gen George H
Estcs General Estcs also proposes that
tbe division shall have its individual
marching song
lie is just plain Im ate Blankenship
but the donning of tho khaki the other
day by this etcran Baptist minister
i from Higgins Texas created more than
a ripple at Camp Travis Had he come
into the service with n commission
awaiting his coming it would not have
been such nn event But be came looking
for no soft spot to light upon not
anticipating personal glories simply
because ho had given everything except
himself to the cause of liberty and he
would not be satisfied until he had laid
his all on the alter
While Camp Travis perhaps has inducted
more men into tho service than
any other camp in the United Bates
having transformed thousands oflciyil
ians into soldiers ever month Rev
Marion L Blankenship tops them all
for age and it is believed that he is
the oldest volunteer private in the
United States army today He wanted
to get into the infantry and shoulder
a rifle but they told him ho could not
that ho was too old A roobust body
six feet tall and weighing ISO pounds
could not pass him into tho ranks of
combatant troops for there is only one
branch of the service that will accept
n man just ninety days under 50 years
of age That branch is tho quartermasters
department and whilo disappointed
that ho himself could not take
up a rifle he found consolation in tho
knowledge that his admittance to tho
quartermasters department would release
one more hu ky youth who could
take his place in the firing line
Tho Blankenship family is one hundred
per cent American patriot Tho
veteran lo t his youngest son last Juue
the boy being one of that heron bind of
United States Marines who made the
supreme sacrifice at Chateau Thierry
that the mailed fist of Germany might
be warded off Paris in its final thrust
Hi < other son is serving his country in
a munition factory His daughter is
just completing a course in nursing
which will prepare her for service over
cas His wife is a Red Cross leader at
Higgins Texas Six other near relatives
have been killed in action and another
is held prisoner of war in n German
prison camp
Private Blanenship refuses to be considered
in any sense a hero
YThcy made it impossible for me to
say in the same sense as Nathan Hale I
reirct that I have but ono lifo to give
to my country he said but I am
doing the best I can and when I think
of the sacrifices so many have made
