Cmnp Pike covers an area of eight square miles—laid off into beautiful squares, streets, boilleVaxds andcommodious buildiiigs. . Belmont Park is the main entrance to Camp Pike and covers two square miles, withits beautiful walks, diives and Mut orchards. At Belmont Park you will find dne of tb& most brautiftil Hotelsin.

BELMONT is endorsed br the Officers of Camp Pike, which makes it the pleasure grounds for the 65,000soldiers and visifors. In other words, it is what Coney Island is to New York, a world of pleksiu^ for thediversion and ^tertainment of our soldiers.

We want high-class concessions of all kinds. We tlunk two good Rides, a Whip, Hilarity Hall, PennyArcade, House of Thousand Troubles, Plate Glass Maze would do well. Preference will be 0yen to those of apermanent nature, and everything must be of a character to pass inspection of Military and State authorities.
