= Harry Davis thinks that the US.
q Marines are simply fighting FOOLS"
I He doesn't particularly like the
idea of being stationed at San Juan
Hill in Cuba and believes that if a
few companies of Marines, his com.
It pany in particular, were turned
loose on No Mans Land in France
there wouldn't be enough left OF
). the Kaiser to make a decent souve-
mir. He says in Cuba all the ma
tives carry a long knife with which
they cut their wood, split their
J. kindling and use for many purposes,
1t is the we'll known machete of
lie Spanish American val days. Ac.
IS cording to Harry it is nothing but
,e pure JOY for an unarmed marine tc
get into a row with a Cuban mig
GER" armed with a machete, and
ID come out of the fray, none the
re worse, except possibly for a scar or
n his arm. Fortunately the knive:
If are usually quite dull.
If

ed in it will be very useful to him
as William Lawrence of SouthwicI
