The government is hereafter to par
tally furnish the quarters Of British
army officers. The amount OF furni-
tnre that will be given is not yet spec
fled. but it will include at least the
bed, chest of drawers, washstand and
bath. This saving in hired or other
transport at every regimental move
will, 1t is calculated, soon show as a
set-off or reduction of the initial out
lay. Here is "a hint for our war de-
partment. Perhaps some officer good
at figures will help the suggestion by
estimating the cost ,of providing fur
niture for QUARTERS and how much
would be reQuirad annually to pay the
interest ON this sum and provide a
sinking fund for its ultimate ,extin-
guishmerlt.
