Guard duty and kitchen work are things studiously to be avoided by the enlisted men. It Is not pleasant for n soldier to be kept on guard, walking a beat or pacing up and down lu front of headquarters when the rest of the fellows are Inside the barracks sing ing songs, telling stories, eating tur key or out on the parade ground play ing bHsebnll or doing skylarking stunts. Accordingly the experienced soldier i makes It n point to escape Christmas 1 guard duty If |x»ssible. There arc '•ev-^ eral ways of doing this. The tird sergeant of the company sometimes. It Is hinted, helps the veterans out by a passive co-operation, which throws the burden of the day upon young recruits who are passing their first Christmas lu tin* service. He permits the ^*ld timers to swap dates for guard duty with the recruits so that the latter will find themselves detailed. Santa Claus also comes to the sol dier. This Is true literally and figura tively. He comes through the mails or the express companies in the shape of boxes or packages from the home folks.
