sorts OF intoXIcants. where the soldier
could go with his cantcen, get it filed
then drink booze to his perpetual
satisfaction. Few citizens thought it
meant anything else but grand place
for soldiers to carouse and disgrace
themselves. AS matter of fact the
canteen was the social club of the
soldiers. 1t was conducted solely for
enlisted men along the same lines that
the officers club is conducted today
Only beer and soft drinks were handled !;

as whisky, were prohibited. in the can

The canteen was the general gather,
ing place of the post, Cards, checkers
and dominoes were generally supplied.
During the afternoons and evenings the
men off duty gathered in these canteens,
played games, chatted and met their
friends. In this way the dull routine
of military life was made less burden

look through the magazines, which were
furnished also. Those who wished TO
spend an hour or so in the gymnasium
which was located in the same building
were privileged to do that. Often there
was n piano in the same building, and
with the assistance Of musical talent
of which there is considerable among
the regulars, harmless fun was furnished
for an entire gathering. The glass OF
so of beer which the soldier. drank rare
