Although the long looked for, long prayed for day
when the graduates are TO be relieved from their
responsibilities as cadets and the third class allowed
furlough, has not come about yet there are two or
three unwelcome things to the latter class which
have come about. One OF them is the 'leave of alb
sence pledge business. II may not ID generally
known that last year when the new cadets were
sworn into the service the following was tackled
on to their oath-"And l do further pro-
mise, on my word Of honor, that viii
not in any manner interfere with, harass, moest
injure new cadets, nor compel or permit them to
perform menial services, do for me anything In.
compatible with the position Of cadet and gen.
temsn." The present fourth GLASS; and which will
be the third in few weeks, Is, 1t 80 happens, the
only class in the Academy that has made the above
promise. Now what about the othersi One would
think, at first blush, that when member OF any OF
the other classes which have not made the above ar
nation wanted furlough he could get one, even
though he had "yanked" q "plebe." But witness how
the authorities to .come 1t over the unpedged.
The following sample OF '1eave of absence' which
every cadet must sign before he gets days leave
will tell the villany:-
LEAVE OF ABSENCE" PLEDGE
Upon the honor of cadet and gentleman certify
that have in no manner or way improperly inter-
fered with or molested harassed or injured new
cadets from my admission as cadet to the present
time; and do further pledge my honor that during
my absence from the post OF West Point Will alb
stain from all intoxicating liquors and every dsspa
tOn excess for three days Immediately following
my departure from and preceding my return to the
Academy.
1t is feared by q number of anxious mammas who
are here just that there will be few cadets they
know OF who cannot sign the hOrrid document this
month.
