MeHenoy ifcpfferts* Rank Wm Vaatf -*e •'&#**• ft Prtty !»«!•• eeleiidSng the fact that th#' the American army are the Ik of courtesy, they sometimes, a,nd garrison life, have very un­ social experiences, says the An officer in a garrison is as- . quarters, not according to the ilties of his family, but in ac- with his rank. It therefore finite frequently, when » *v OAiititii" iii sent to ft post, that there hi^§iKPts many changes of quarters so as to make room for him. When ft new ma- * for arrives, for instance, he selects the quarters that suit him best, it matters Hot who occupies them, provided the Occupant is below him in rank. He can turn out a major lower on the list *qjp any captain or lieutenant, and each <of these when dispossessed can choose tr himself what quarters suit him best occupied by an inferior in rank. One saove, therefore, may make a dozen Others. The women of the army, it is are greater sticklers for these lights than the men. But the mett themselves, while preserving all the forms of highest courtesy, sometimes J jjush their authority to its fullest JUmits. For instance, at a two-com­ pany post ip the west some years ago, • captain of infantry was in command, «s his commission was of older date than that of the captain of cavalry also i there. These two captains were mutually antipathic. In their official Intercourse all the forms were ob­ served, but still it was plain to all that <jhey cordially disliked each other. One Mv:;4ay the senior captain ordered the • Junior to take a file of tgentothe forest and cut the firewood deeded for * Ihe winter! This duty ordinarily would hafb been given to a sergeant or corporal. The cavalry captain had no recourse and was obliged to obey, 1; Just- as he got outside the post the •yna.il which came only now and then at ' Intervals of a week or so, arrived, and •"the cavalryman stopped for his letters. One of these brought him his commis- i Fionas major. He at once issued an - order taking command of the post, and .'f^ifrnother order assigning the wood-chop- • ping duty to the late commandant.
