SOMEBODY writes to the Eye and
Star, of Dodgeyille, complaining Of
the rowdyish proceedings incident to
the Salvation Army parades and ser
vices on our streets. Good citizens Of
Mineral Point have been mortified
often by occurrences on these oc-
casions. The proceedings Of the army
are so 1T variance with the decorum
and solemnity generally character
izing religious services, that it IL not
surprising that to many, and espec-
tally boys and young men, they do
not appeal as religious. In some
cases at least, the fault has not been
all with the crowds Of youth on the
sidewalks. The boisterousness Of the
Army ana apparent willingness to
handy words with bystanders furnish
some excuse for the indecorous scenes
complained Of. With the coming of
Captain Fletcher, who taxes charge
of the Mineral Point barracks this
week, assisted by his wife, both Of
whom appear to be Of the miIder
type Of Army workers i Is hoped
that complaints Of disorder will end.
