extending down the center and along
each side. Each bunk is supplied

served at least twice a week. al
though in hot climates meat cannot
be eaten so heartily as in the north.
The houses of the superintendent

magazines to which the. men have
free access, and hospitals. in charge
of surgeons, where all minor cases
