THE OREGON : DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND; TUESDAY,, JANUARY, .14, 5 SPRUCE SOLDIERS BEING MUSTERED OUT OF SERVICE uciiiuuiiiaiiuii id iiubccuiiig as Rapidly as Work Can Be Done by Officers at Vancouver. MANY SENT LONG DISTANCE Majority of Boys Hail From Points in Minnesota, Dakotas . And Other Middle States. Their part of maklnfr America su preme In tlie air completed, soldiers ef the .spruce production division of the United States army are being demob ilized at the Vancouver barracks as fast as the mustering: officers can work. . While a great many of the soldiers are receiving their discharges here, hun dreds of others are being: sent on spe cial trains to eastern camps and can- of the soldiers are given their discharges, positions are secured for them. During the paat. week, several special trains hare steamed away from the Van couver depot with hundreds of smiling faces aboard. Last Thursday, 250 happy lads who helped fell some of the giant spruce trees in the Northwest de parted for Cams Dodge, Iowa, where they will be mustered out A majority of these boys hailed from Minnesota. South Dakota, North Dakota, Iowa and other Middle Western states. The plan of sending the soldiers east to be demobilized is considered a wise one. The boys from the various sections of the country are placed in groups, the commanding officer of each squadron making a list of the soldiers which is checked by the mustering officer prior to the departure from the barracks. The soldiers carry their blankets, mesa kits and personal belongings with them. The process of mustering out at the barracks is practically the same as in the other army camps. The soldiers first appear for medical examination, just as they did whan they were induct ed 4nto the service, a corps of medical examiners looking them over very care fully. This completed they pass to an other room where they turn in the gov ernment property, such as blankets, mess kits and extra uniforms. The next move is to sign their service records and dis charges, after which they receive their pay and transportation allotment. Paderewski Is Not Seriously Wounded Geneva, Jan. 14. (U. P.)

Hubby Must BeiGobd And Obey Wife or Spend Time in Jail For the next six months, Fred : A Klrchner will 'not be the head of his own household, and the nuptial prom ise to obey will fe his, and not his wife's duty. ; Kirchner convicted in the municipal court Monday, was sen tenced to spend 30 days in Jail for a violation of the moral law, and pa roled to the custody of his wife, who, willing to forgive and forget,, had ap peared in court in his behalf. According to the terms of his sen tence, he must be in every way. an, obedient husband. Should an affinity again appear to cloud the sky of the Kirchner household, the word of the wife will be enough to send the hus band to jail.

Kirchner and the wmoan were arested Sunday evening by Officers Hall and Rockwell. Editor Who Killed Wife Gets Life Term New York," Jan. 14. (I. N. S.) Charles K.
