the men themselves with the meaEer
material available here. and without q
cent of government aid.

room for each of the fourteen CON.
panics now here. The kitchen con-
tains a workroom for the cook and his
assistants. huge adobe oven and in
Generator, meat-house. a storeroom
and quarters for The cook. The wall
separating the Kitchen is pierced by
openings. through which the food is
passed. as tn" men file hy with the
mess kits at mealtime
The mess hall. which adjoins the
Kitchen, contains benches ana rough
tables that accommodate the entire
company. After meals these benches
are cleared and the mess hall becomes
recreation room. well heated by a
huge fireplace and lighted by gasoline
lanterns, oil lamps sd candles The
recreation hall appeals especially TO
the men. Their sleeping quarters are
too small 10 permit of the presence or
more than two men sitting or lying.
and heating them with anything but a
can OF hot ashes is almost impossible
With their roofs OF joined shelter tents
they are ideal for opem-air sleeping
but that is all. Consequently the re-
creation hall is always we'll filled at
night.
The adobe brick FOR the company
buildings was made by the men, and
they paid from their own funds for the
lumber necessary for doors, window
frames and benches They also bought
the saplinSs that are used for raftcrs
and cut the brush upon which the mud
roofs are laid. Back Of these buildings
is wide company street. on the other
side of which are the adobe officers

The regiment has developed the
