marily dealt with by the arrest of the
offender, who will be deprived OF his
uniform. furnished with suit of cheap
civilian clothing and shipped back to the

calls that the infiiction of this punish
ment in his own regiment upon one oc-
casion many years ago has become
tradition which has sufficed for twenty
years to prevent the necessity Of its
repetition. Should the occasion unhap-
PLY arise on this tour OF duty for such
drastic action, the brigade commander
expects the company commander con con
promptly and courageously; but 1t Is be-

before leaving home stations will ere
