The bear is looked upon as the property of the battalion, and the men jokingly declare that the wonderful showing made by the battalion in the Liberty bond '3 sues, when ; J45.00 ; was subscribed in six hours, was due to the "good luck ' brought by the cub.

"They drilled that morni.ij and perfected their marching more hi two hours, than tney could have in a week's work," the commanding offi cer of the battat.on declared. "Toe men roused- their acting non-commissioned officers anS went to it with a snap and punch which is going to make the battalion ore of the jrreat sst fighting units in the division." , Lieutenant J.
