The Lambs Club In New York has
turned Itself Into a temporary home
for wounded soldiers back from the
front, says a story In the Saturday
Evening Post. These men are given
all the privileges of actual member
ship, and strange sights often are wit
nessed in that care-free institution.
Bayard Veiller, the dramatist, relates
this incident.
"I was sitting in the lobby one
day,” said Veiller, “talking with a
captain of marines Invalided home
after a touch of pneumonia. He had
been telling me about a big South
erner in his company—a private—
and I judged by what the captain said
about him that this Buck person was
more or less the fair-haired child of
the outfit.
"Just then the door opened and in
came a long, lanky individual, drag
ging one leg behind- him.
“‘By the living Jingo!’ yelled the
captain, ‘there’s old Buck now!'
“It was a pretty even thing which
was first into the clinch—the officer
or the private. Well, they hugged
each other, they hammered each other
on the back, they yelled until people
came down from the floor above to
see what was happening. Finally
they calmed down a bit and went away
into a corner, where they sat, each
with his arm around the other's neck,
engaged in low-toned conversation.
“At last the officer remembered me
and came back.
“‘A great fellow, Buck!’ he ex
claimed with enthusiasm.
“ ‘So I should imagine by the way
you greeted him. . . . You a
captain and he a private. . .
Did I dream it, or have I heard that
there is such a thing as disciplne in
the Unted States marine corps?’
“‘You listen to me!’—and the cap
tain threw the parade-grounjj rasp
into his voice—‘I was out in Nobody
Land fo* three dkys with that fellow
three days. And we didn’t have any
thing to eat or drink in all that time.
And every minute Jerry was feeling
for us with shells as big as washtubs.
You can take it from me, it was some
experience! After you’ve shared a
party of that sort with a private you
can’t be formal with him. A general
couldn’t.’ ”
