to be rushed into battle line as soon

Captain LaReau, however, has not

of the national guard. He Will, he has
announced, recruit his company up to
its fullest strength, and proceed along
the lines suggested by the adjutant
general with reference to reporting at

The order from the adjutant gem

final discharge papers signed, as
rumors on the border before they re-
turned to Oklahoma, were to the eff

in need of such ambulance units, and
Tulsa's company, being one of the
