UNDER MILITARY RULE
Barred From Fort Sam Houston
Reservation After Discharge.

Servants have become the subject of a
special order just issued at Fort Sam
Houston, Texas. The servant problem is
causing so much trouble there that an
attempt to regulate it officially has been
made.
On account of the difficulty of getting
and keeping servants, discharged SER
wants are not to be allowed in the reser-
walton hereafter. All discharges of SER
wants by officers are to be reported to
the adjutant. and they will not be re-
employed in the post until six months
after their discharge, and then only with
the written consent of the officer who
dismissed them.
