At the oimcUision of all the trials and tribulations Captain Woodcock ex- pressed himself as satisfled with the result. He says he won't feel so fool¬ ish If he falls to hear the alarm at 2.30! a. m. and meets the appatattjs com¬ ing horae at 6 a. m. since hc no longt^r has to carry around the dignity of cap¬ tain.
