cookie burs.
When they were ordered to San

were billeted together. and occupied
the same tent. They studied together
for the examinations for advancement
to the rank Of corporal. and were
among the twelve out of $50 examin-
ed at that time who succeeded in
passing the required grade. one Of the
three making = perfect score.
On the strength Of their standing
in that examination. all three were
transferred to the shops at Dayton.
Ohio. and word has just been received
that the same success has been met
with in the examinations for shop SER
geant at that place.
All three have received their ser.
geant's stripes. and a prouder bunch
would be hard to imagine.
These boys have taken the situation
seriously from the start, and have
taken advantage Of every opportunity
to forward themselves. The result is
seen in their rapid promotion, and the
contentment with which they are I'LL
ing their obligations to Uncle Sam.
