Experiences Of Our Volun-

Experiences Of Our Volun-

Real army experience has convinced
| the majority of Worcester's volunteer
army officers who saw service in the
| Spanish war that a regimental canteen
| is a necessary adjunct to every regi-
ment, and they think it is more than
probable that the canteen will remain a
part of every regimental equipment
| from this time on.
When the regular army regiments
broke up camp at their posts and start
ed for the places the United States gov
eminent had set apart to mobilize the
army in, they took the furnishings Of
the canteen along with them, and it
was conducted on the same lines as
when they had it in at their posts
The members of the volunteer army
were not in most cases allowed to have
a canteen within the regimentaI lines
and, as result, according to the opin-
ions of local militia officers who do not
care to be quoted on the matter there
was considerable more trouble keeping
members of the regiment within
bounds than there was in the regular
army.
In the regular army a canteen is al
lowed to the majority of the regiments.
and beer is dispensed to the soldiers.
The canteen is in charge of a sergeant,
and he Is held responsible for the con-
dition of the men to whom he sells the
beer According to reports made by
regular army officers, the soldiers will
stay within bounds or guard lines of
their regiment when they can purchase
beer, and will make it a point not to
get intoxicated They do this because
Of fear of receiving a censure from
their superior officers If they break a
rue of discipline.
The profits which are derived from the
sale of beer always go towards forming
a regimental fund, and this is used for
the benefit of the members when IL is
needed to purchase luxuries which can
not be found on the ration list pre-
scribed by the government.
In Cuba many of the regiments had
a fund that reached well up into the
thousands, and although the volunteer
had innumerable friends at home who
looked out for his inner man, the regu-
lar wanted for nothing that money
could buy The officers spent the mon
ey getting food for the men, and at
Tampa whore the regiments were mo-
bilizad in many cases the regulars were
living better than the volunteers, who
were constantly receiving delicacies
from home. Later in Cuba the money
was used by the regular army officers
to good advantage at the commissariee.
and altogether the money derived from
the sale Of heer at the canteens tended
to help the men along.

Southbridge, July 29.-If Southbridge
succeeds in obtaining an outlet to the
outside world, by the construction of
one of the many electric roads that are
Just now being talked of so much, the
town will consider itself fortunate.
Since the present Southbridge and Fisk
dale road was built, every conceivable
way of obtaining an outlet has been
eliagested. Charlton Depot, Spencer,
Brookf1eld and Webster have often been
mentioned as objective points. OF the
four towns, Brookfield and Charlton
nave been more favorably looked upon,
and reeSived more attention. The
Brookfield scheme took shape about a

the cause to objections made by local
BUSINESS men, who claimed that the
rDad would have a tendency to take
Away trade rather than draw it, as
Worcester would then be in easy ac-
ness.
-. About this time, the Charlton Depot
scheme received another boom, and at
one time the outlook was so promising
that the Boston and Albany people

Solthbridge people who would take

many times they correspondent to closA-

In Cuba, during the campaign, all
regiments were without canteens and
the result was similar. Men who want
ed something to brace them up would
look around for Santiago rum, and af-

A canvass of local soldiers who went
away to Cuba shows that they favor
the canteen when it is used right. and

should be allowed to pass until the
canteen is abused, something that has
not yet happened.

AMERICAN WOMEN IN LONDON.

The Society of American Women in
London is proving charming success.
and already its membership numbers a
hundred. The society is formed some
what on the lines of the "Sorosis" in
New York, its regular meetings taking
the form of a social luncheon the first
Monday of the month. The idea has
been a bond Of fellowship among the
thinking American women In. Isendon
and to keep in touch with what is truest
and best in America, realizing that in
unity is force for the furtherance of
many interests. The society stands
for social culture. and it is desired to
make of 1t all that q centre of dignified
feminine intellectual interest should be.
The members desire to grow in num-
bers slowly, and OF women who will
bring and give the best. One OF their
keenest pleasures Is the realization OF
a little America in London, one day
in the month, to which occasionally
may be welcomed English guests. z
