Remley, Carrier, Had Uncomfortable
Experience and Personal.

Experience Local and Personal.
Special Correspondence to the lines
Mr.. Edgar r. Remley one of our
rural mail carrier had quite an unusual
experience last Sunday morning. He,
with his wife and two little children,
had started to visit his friends near
Downs Chapel. The weather being
as he thought little keen he put a
lighted lantern in the foot of the car
rage and covered 1t up entirely with
the wraps. The jolt of the carriage
| over the frozen roads, caused the oil to
! slash out on their clothing and on the
wraps and before they were aware of it
| the whole foot of the carriage was
ablaze. Mr.. Remley on discovering it,
jumped from the carriage and after
much difficulty succeeded in putting it
out, his own and his wifes clothing.
He lost his gum blanket and most of
the wraps besides, serious damage be-
ing done to the carriage. He estimates
his loss at about $20.
Our Christmas entertainment passed
off very nicely on Friday evening of
last week. The house was filled and
every body seemed to enjoy the exer-
cises. Besides the regular treat there
was The present corner" and through
this many presents were given and re-
ceived. Among there all, was splendid
dress suit case which was presented
by the school to their worthy Supt. G.
Garrison.
Miss Ida Downs gave a very pleasant
reception on last Saturday afternoon
to her music pupils and her Sunday
School class. All report delightful
time.
While Miss May Frazier was attemp- |
ting TO light fire, the sleeve of her
dress caught fire and her hand and |
wrist were slightly burned.
Owing to the delay in the repairing
and painting of Bryn Zion Baptist
church there will not be any service in
January, but they hope to be ready by
the first Sunday in February.

III THE TIME OF PEACE.
secretary Root Issues Address to
Army Asking 1t TO Perfect IT.
self IN Military Science

Secretary Root has issued the fol-
lowing. with the reduction Of the
Philippine force and the withdrawal
from Cuba, the army is called upon
to resume its most important work in
time Of peace-the work of perfect
ing itself in military science and
skill, and Of promoting the prepare
ton Of the United states against III
ture wars. wish to call your at
tention to the conditions which now
require especial effort and zeal on
your part in he performance Of this
duty.
THE abandonment of the military
schools for commissioned officers,
which followed the employment of
the entire army in active military
operations. has left these 1912 new
lieutenants substantially without any
means Of acquiring a systematic MILF
tary education.
Congress has now with wise liber-
atty made provision for the reopen
ing of the army schools, has given its
sanction TO the general system of
military education embodied in the
general order of November ~ last,
including the enlargement and devel-
opment Of the Fort Leayenworth
school into a general service and staff
college, the establishment of the war
college at Washington, with suitable
buildings, and the rebuilding Of the
engineer school, and has made ample
appropriation for these purposes.
Every effort will be made by the
war college board, which has general
supervision and charge of the whole
system, to bring its advantages to
the new officers of the army as
speedily as possible, and TO organize
officers schools at all the consider
able posts without delay"

ARMY OFFICERS DISSATISFIED
Complain Tint suffi Client Time lis Not
Given Them to Change to
New Uniforms

Army officers are complaining that
the war department has failed to
give them sufficient time in which
to replace their present uniforms
with the new apparel recently pre-
scribed by regulations adopted by a
board of officers. 1t is held that the
army should be allowed a year to effect
important and extensive changes in
uniforms such as is contemplated by
the new regulations. When impor-
tant changes are made in the navy
uniform that period is allowed Off
GERS in which to wear out the uni
forms they possess before they are
required to go to the expense of
equipping themselves with the new
habiliment. Another cause of com
plant is that some staff officers must
provide for Themselves eight differ
ent headgears. and all officers must
have at least seven. The eight
pieces of headgear which have been
adopted among the regulations are
the chapeau, which is confined to
general officers and officers of staff,
corps and departments; the full
dress cap, the dress cap. the white
cap, the service cap, the white he'll
met, the service helmet, the yellow
helmet, and the campaign hat.
This equipment and the varied as
sortment of devices and insignia must
be part of every officers uniform
