SOLDIERS AT
FORT SOON TO
BE RELEASED
Captain Hewes, in command at
Fort Liscum, arived in Cordova yes
terday afternoon on the launch Don
aldson, and returned to the post today,
accompanied by twenty-six of the
thirty soldiers stationed here and in
the Copper River valley, who have
been withdrawn. The four remaining
men are stationed at the Miles Glacier
bridge and just how long they will be
on duty is not definitely known.
Captain Hewes says that so far he
has discharged 114 soldiers. Of this
number 110 were of the 166th depot
brigade, and but four from company
B. Two more will also be released
from the latter company upon his re
turn to the fort, and the probabilities
are that before long all of the enlisted
• men from Alaska will be discharged,
Captain Hewes insists that he has
done all he could to assist the boys
eligible to release to return to civ
ilian life, but that the order for their
release must come from divisional
headquarters, as he had no authority
to act in the matter.
Upon the return of the Donaldson to
Valdez twenty-five soldiers will be
come citizens of the United States,
and immediately thereafter they will
be given an honorable discharge
- This will make a total of eighty-seven
men at the fort who have taken out
their citizenship papers before leaving
the army. T ;

BOYS OVERSEAS STRONG I
FOR LOCAL AMUSEMENTS!
_ a
D
PARIS, Feb. 5 (by mail).—One of v
the most apparent needs of the mem- c
bers of the American expeditionary
force at the present time is enter- (
tainment to assist in passing away J
the time until orders are received to
depart for home. To meet this need _
the Knights of Columbus, through its
entertainment division, have organ
ized numerous troupes of entertainers
who will visit the various units of 1
the army and the first party of enter- 1
tainors has left Paris. '
It is announced that this work will
extend to the American forces in j
France, Belgium, Italy and Germany 1
and that every unit of the army will i
be reached.
Aipong the Knights of Columbus ‘
secretaries in France are many pro
fessional entertainers who will be dis- f
tributed among the groups and will be 5
assisted with amateur talent among J
the workers. Entertainers will also c
-be secured from among the members a
of the American expeditionary force I
to augment the work of the secre- r
c
taries.
A minstrel troupe'is being rehearsed e
and this show will soon be staged in
Paris - and will 'then be sent on .the f
road * to visit the v&riouq camps
throughout the American army. The (
members of this show will be recruit- v
ed from among the Knights of Colum- 6
bus workers, and members of the £
army and navy. c
While the men in the field are be- j
ing entertained, those less fortunate r
and who are confined in^ the hospitals t
are not being forgotten, as concerts £
are being given in the various hos- £
pitals in and around Paris several s
times each week. This portion of the i
work is highly appreciated by the t
patients and the officers in charge of |
the hospitals. I
