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.

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.
Bertha Burns, the "other woman,"
was also sentenced to 30 days in Jail,
but sentence was suspended on condi
tion that she stay away, from Mrs.
KIrchner's husband. Kirchner and the
wmoan were arested Sunday evening
