the Secretary the distribution being among Western
posts 1t has been decided employ civilians, retired

government Of the canteen. At posts the scheme
has been adopted at Others IL is opposed for such
reasons as that IL would take the canteen out OF the
hands OF the present soldier and make ii less CO.

siders would in some way impair the discipline and

Al Fort Schuyler, N. Y. the oanteen council think
that the financial condition Of the canteen does not

will be decided by General Howard.

building for the caneen has heretofore been recon-
mended and plans prepared. and 1t Is urged that ad
tonal quarters be provided "The amusement room
should be large well lighted and ventilated and amply
provided with periodicals so TINT the men can quietly

be surrounded by as few appearances rs possible OF

The credit system at Wiletts Point, NJ l., Is IN
successful operation. and results in good sales ournR
portions OF the month in which business would other-
wise be dull The plan Of employing retired or as
charged soldiers as statesmen in the canteen is i'm
nrccable AT this post for the reason that the financial
condition Of the caneon does not warrant the increased
expense involved In the adoption Of such policy ana
also that there are no available retired or discharged
soldiers that served at this post who would salts
factorly fill such positions.
