By order of Ma jor Maddox:
L. H. Rockafellow,
1st. Lieut. 7th Inf. ,
Adjutant.
The above order is quite a blow and is keenly felt by
these men who have been performing extra duty on the Post.
The duties consisted of Movie operator, Instructor in
general education, Post painter, Post plasterer, Post Librarian,
Post Gym attendant etc. and includes skill as well as extra work.
No doubt- the retrenchment policy recently put in force
was an indirect cause of the discontinuance of the above Special
ists ratings in the Army.
CHURCH NOTICE.
There will be no church service nor Sunday School next
Sunday in the Haines Presbyterian Church on account of the "Plu”
epidemic.
IIOVIE SCHEDULES.
Ho Movies in Haines nor the Post until the present "Hu"
quarantine has been called off. It is possible that the quarantine
will be lifted Monday and in that case there will be Movies on the
usual nights in Haines and on the Post.

COMPANY "E" JEWS NOIPS. ®
The latest joke is on 1st. Sergeant Miller. He went down
stairs with a mop and tooth brush, threw the tooth brush in the
sink to get it wet and walked over to the wash basin with the mop
to wash his teeth, and he has only been in Alaska a short four
years too.'
Some of the boys claim they can't run, but when we start
playing "Hot-tail", they change their mind and show speed.
We hope that Horak blows first call at 3 o'clock for the
benefit of some of our farmer boys who are early risers.
In running some trial 100's last week, Horak and Evans showed
all the class. We believe they could make almost anyone run.'
All is not what it seems, go easy on- Tillbrook's mustard.'
