MANY ARMY OFFICERS
ARE TO BE SHIFTED

Many army officers now on duty
in Washington will be shifted to
posts elsewhere between now and
July 1. The changes to be af.
fected will exceed in. number any
resulting from shake.ups Of the
kind in years. The transfers are
made necessary by the provisions
of the Manchu law which provides
that no. officer shall be retained on
a Washington post longer than
four years. Two years must elapse
before he can be returned to a
National Capital assignment.
Half of the officers on duty in
the War Department will be sent
to join troops, many of them going

replied Bunny in his most teacher

boy. ST. 49,

aggravating way in which he de-
cides to finish a conversation.
As it happened, we went to
France very soon after that and
of course the very first day when
we went to Normandy, on the north
coast. Bobby, upon seeing q fine
bay in front of us, said:
1T would be nice to go fishing
here, wouldn't it, Foxy Grandpa"
So the next morning off we went
and soon we were out on the bay
with our lines overheard.
Bobby had hardly thrown his
line in when it gave an awful jerk
and in he pulled it. On the end
OF the Lire, hooked securely, was
a big, flat fish, with spets all over
it.
Bobby unlocked the fish and
threw 1t in the bottom Of the boat
and when it had stopped wigglirg
examined it.
