An extra drill tonight at 7 SHARP

#+
Going to church Sunday was a pr..t-
" tough change for some Of the
heather soldiers and said heather sol.
diers kicked like q twO-year-old
mule with a humble bee chewing its
tail off. Kicking did no good. tho,
and as the Memorial sermon was a
peach, they enjoyed themselves much
more than at the common weekday
drills.
The governor has issued orders for
the blue uniforms to be sent in. A
new khaki will soon arrive to take it's
place.
A soldier jumped onto us with all
four feet the other day for saying
stuff about him in this column. OF
course we apologized for it in album
BILE way, and told him we would not
have put it in if we had known
1t would make him mad, ETC., ETC.,
in other words we said CAV, go
eat q lizard. You make me sick"
The yellow campaign shoes are be.
ing shipped in at Schneider & Nelson
and can be gotten for 1918, the
wholesale price. Soldiers are sup
o I'd to take that money out of their
own pants.
The question mostly quarreled over
Tuesday was whether to e the
blue uniforms on Memorial day Or
the khaki. The captain had re-
ceived orders from the governor to
wear the khaki, but a few soldiers
raised a fuss, as they wanted the
blue. They tried to say that the
blue fitted better and gee whiz, they
even limited that it looked better.
Old Cap refused to be stuffed, tho,
and ordered the khaki uniforms to be
worn tomorrow.
Soldiers who are members of Com.
pany DIS. D N. G., 4th Infantry,
u. S. A., are requested to come to the

Did you see that collection of soft
headed windjammers that stood on

and have no more patriotism than a
