TRUANT PRIVATES SERVE
AS KITCHEN MANICURISTS
CAMP LEWIS, Tacoma, April 27.—
School-day methods are not effective
n the army. A certain private at
”amp Lewis who resorted to truancy
iractice in an effort to obtain an ex
ension of his furlough learned «this
o his chagrin.
Several days ago a company com
pander received the following tele
gram from one of his men on fur
ough in a California city:
“Father very low. Kindly grant
en-day extension of furlough. May
se the last of dad. Respectfully,
“PRIVATE BLANK.”
This was followed by a telegram
signed with the name of a physician,]
saying Private Blank’s father was
rery low. The desired extension was
wired by the captain, who was af
ected by the “last of dad” note struck
by the private. Unfortunately for the
atter, however, a secret service
agent learned of the young man’s tac
tics, investigated, and discovered that
“dad” was a husky policeman patrol
ling his beat. The investigator re
ported to the military authorities:
“I instructed Private Blank to send
a telegram to his captain notifying
him that he was returning and did
not desire an extension of his fur
lough.”
The “last of dad” will probably
come for Private Blank when he fin
ishes his allotted period of kitchen
police. This is not a promotion for
a display of ingenuity, but rather it
