"Faithful Service Medals"

According to the state military code. each
member Of the national guard who serves for
ten years is entitled to a bronze faithful ser
vice medal, for fifteen years service he Is
entitled to silver medal. and for twenty
years service a gold medal. The late war
caused many Of the older service men to quit
who had only a few more months or years to
serve to entitle them to medals. Many of
them asserted they were entitled to double
time for active service. but none has been
able to bring the proper evidence before the
adjutant general to convince him 1t was
proper to do such thing. # e ] ourn

"Blue Book bearing upon this matter. Gen
oral Libtey feels the justice of such an order
