SOLDIERS HOME, July 24.--Circu-
lar No. 3 has been Issued at headquar-
ters for the benefit of the national
homes, concerning a practice that has
grown into general use at some Of the
branch homes relative to the employ
ment of substitutes and the assessment
of members for this purpose.
"Ordinary camp and barrack work"
is such work as is necessary to keep
the home properly policed, the barra clSs
and their furniture and fixtures clean,
the clothing and bedding of members in
such order as to prevent waste or loss
and the occasional extra work in con-
nection with the preparation of the diet
of members that cannot be performed
by the regular employees Of the commis-
sary department.
II some Of the members rather than
do this work themselves prefer to club
together and employ a substitute that
may be permitted but the transaction
must be entirely between the members
and the substitute and not through the
Intermediary Of any official of the
home. In the old mems companies
where the members are not subject to
detail by reason of the surgeons ex-
cuse, this work should be performed by
members employed for the purpose and
paid for from the general fund.
