Major @. W. Ruthcrs chief commits
sary of the department Of Northern
Luzon. In a letter to Commlssary Gen
eral Weston Of Washington. says that
there are 33S stations IN that depart
mont, without about twenty-five thous-
and troops and that the supplying OF
an army OF this size. divided into so
many stations. Is much more dlnlcult
than II II was an army In one body.
Besides the troops there were at that
time several thousand prisoners who
were being fed by the government. The
subsistence department he says. Is In
superb condition, and many gratifying
statements and reports are received
from all the officers. Gen. Weston. In
command of the department, has TAX
en- occasion several times TO speak In
the highest terms OF the commssary
department Speaking OF a particular
feature OF the army ration. Major
Ruthors says; THE beef stew with
the vegetables Is the finest component
OF the ration ever put into the hands
OF troops. Il will take the place Of
fresh beef when the latter cannot be
supplied for some time. and with the
addition OF some bareback. coffee. sug-
ar. salt and baked beans. you could
cut an army loose from rs transpor-
tatlon for some time. Il Is the finest
ration for hikes ever put into tho
hands OF a soldier and Is highly praised
by them Major Ruthers says for some
time he used the English army ratlons
(beef stow and potatoos) In 2-pound
cans, which gave satisfaction. but does
not compare to the beef stew issue OF
the United States army rations. Anoth-
er fact he states; Experience shows
that the American soldier serving IN
these islands needs the full army ra.

Funk more than once I'D denied that

somewhat upset by the fact that Funk
is not a student Of the High school
at all, but of the high school depart
ment Of the L. d. S. university. When
they asked him whether he was a
High school student he replied in the
affirmative, but did not explain that it
