now stationed at Fort Lcavonworth,
rs sUheuuiCd to leave the states for
1 foreign service sometime during the
month OF April, next year. 1t has
been rumorel that instead of pro-
cccding to the Philippines, whore the
officers and mon would have advan-
tugc of foreign service, and where
the regiment Is entitled to go after
serving four years in the homeland,
they will be ordered to Hawaii TAX
ing it from the general thought OF
the arti lie, 1t is very evident that
the officers and enlisted men are dis
appointed and do not want to come
to Honolulu.
No Dislike for Hawaii

lost for at least four years more. The
additional 20 per cent, together
with double time for the enlisted
men, are what the 18th Infantry is
locking to. In the minds of the
members of the Goth Infantry, they
see no reason why the War Depart

Hawaii Home Service.
The second battalion of the goth
Infantry has served nearly four
years in these Islands, with only
home service to their credit, while
the other two battalions have had
advantage of foreign service in the
Philippines. If Hawaii is to remain
In service the same as that in the
States, and each regiment to take
its turn in serving here, the 18th
Infantry should be glad that they
have the first opportunity and that
after four years their tour of SER
vice here will be finished for some
years.
To EXCHANGE With Twentieth.
If the entire Thirteenth comes to
Horolulu in April no doubt this
will be the exchange of stations
with the Twentieth, one battalion
coming to Fort Shaiter and the 9TH
cr two to Schoield Barracks. This
will mean that the entire Goth regl-
ment will find its way to Fort Lcav.

at this post, 1t Is no more desired
that the Twentieth go to Fort Leav-

Another Game of Bowling.
A large crowd of soldiers crowded
into the bowling alley at Fort Shat
ter last Tuesday night to witness
another exciting game of bowling.
The match was between the non
commissioned officers and the phi
Yates of Company +, and was hot

very popular at this post, for the
alleys are kept constantly busy dur
ing moot of the day and evening.
The scores made are net rs large
as have been made on the island,
but the excitement is great, so the
enthusiasm keeps up.
