a Boston bull terrier only ttve
months old, and has been with the
band members ever since their re
moval to Camp Hancock, the begin
ning of September. Izie has been
with the band soldiers longer than
that, in fact, for he was adopted
as their mascot during the time the

he follows me about the camp he is
frequently picked up .by some of the
