On page 6 of this issue we made the mistake
of announcing that the Officers' Card Club would meet at
Lt.and Mrs.Maerten:s on Tuesday,October 3rd. We were wrong*
The 0*C«C*will be entertained on that date by Capt»and Mrs#
Gorder,and the Ladies1 Circle will meet with Mrs.Maertens
on Friday of next week,-October 6th, As our Society Editor
is "Up the River” for a spell,we beg you to excuse us the
error<Ourselves,werre a very poor Social Butterfly*
RECRUITING PARTY GOES TO JUNEAU:
The USHB."Fornance" left yesterday morning
for Juneau,with a recruiting party,in charge of Capt.Reeves,
M#C*,for the puipose of canvassing that city for additional
soldiers for Fort Seward* Pvts.Rainey and Merriam of the Med
ical Detachments went along to help drum up business* Mrs.
Reeves and Mrs.Halsey, together xvith Mrs .Hoss, also made the
trip to the Capital,as well as a number of men from the Post
who are on their way to attend the Southeastern Alaska Fair,
which is being held in Juneau this week*
The Harbor Boat will leave Juneau on the trip
back to the Post on Sunday morning,at 9*00 o’clock,and pro
ceed to Freshwater Bay,where they will pick up the hunting
party now operating in that locality,under the eommand of
Capt*Hoss and Capt*von Gremp* The "Fornance" will lay over
in Freshwater Bay on Sunday night, and will return to the
Fort on Monday,being due back sometime in the evening*
Our fond wish is that the Capt.Hoes hunting
outfit has had as much luck, and poorer appetites,than the
Capt*Goode party of last week.At least,we hope that they
took along enough rations from the Post to prevent them
falling btfck so heavily on the deer that they’ll bag for
their own sustenance. Like Grape-Nuts,-"there*s a reason!"
v for our devout wishes*
