WHO IS TO BLAME FOR SO MUCH ICE

Knowing John Robinson As We Do; We Suspect He Plays an Important Part in Its Production. The following is taken from The Indianapoflis News, written by its Staff correspondent on the .border:. “If the folk up around Rensselaer and contiguous territory could just look into the mesa shack of the Second battalion, Third regiment, Major Healey commanding, they would sure fed hungry. It’s as neat and clean as any one’s dining room. Not a fly inside the screen and a 'hand-made refrigerator full of ice contains all the delicacies of this country. Lieutenant Morriman., of Company L, is mess officer. Dave Liggett, of Company I, is head chef, assisted by Harry Bowie, also of I Company, and John E. Robinson, of Company M, fills the important position of head waiter. “It's a prevailing question as to how it happens that the refrigerator in that mess shack always is full of ice at times when there is not another cake of ice in the camp.”
