composed the words and music OF
song which he has named for the
regiment and which is bound TO make
a hit and to be whistled, sung and
played by others than the soldiers. 1t
has the true military swing and when
sung by the men or played by the
band is certain to inspire military fer
vor. Mr. Chantreau's composition was
