The Poor Gendarmes!

The song may say what it wants, the brigadier, even when he is a gendarmerie officer, is not always right.

The proof is that, when a favor is granted, moreover justified, to these good servants of order that are the gendarmes, it happens that, by an unfortunate detour, they are prevented from taking advantage of it.

This is how the gendarmes are now authorized to hunt, when they are on regular leave. Alas! a Nimrod needs a dog. However, there is an article 91 of the decree of February 3, 1914 which formally prohibits the gendarme from having, in the barracks, the slightest companion of the canine species. And we forgot, of course, to repeal this unfortunate article.

Quickly, let Pandora have a dog. Otherwise, there is no point in allowing her to run the fallow lands.
