When the army canteen was abolished many soldiers! went for amusement to ill-kept resorts outside, and both drunkenness and disease increased—the latter alarmingly. ‘Then congress passed a law to the effect that the officer or man kept off duty by intemperance or vice should have his pay docked; and at once the morals of the army improved, as if by magic.
