whence he came.
One occupant in the guard house in
a weeks encampment is 4 pretty good
record. One man was placed in for re-
fusing to do guard duty, by mixing off
about the time for guard mount. By
this time he probably realizes that
camp life is no vacation or grand good
time and wishes that he had done a lit
tie differently.

There has been but one feature to
