calyx is put on. String all the others,
working each gently with the hand until the
petals all curl inward.
When they are all on, cut a round piece
OF olive green paper and notch the edges;
paste the inside and push that up against
the flower. Bend the wire and hang the
flower upside down in a safe place to dry.
Cut several long strips of the green paper
for winding the stems. Cut four leaves for
each chrysanthemum, except where the
flower is to decorate a lampshade, when no
leaves are required. Cut wires six inches
long, paste them and lay them along the
middle of the leaves. pressing them down
with the fingers. These can be cut after
the real leaf. All foliage is better when
cut according to nature. A pattern can be
taken once and will serve always. This
also is true OF the petals.
When the leaves are dry take the long
strips, dab a bit Of paste on the end, fasten
that to the calyx and begin to wind 1t round
and round ny until the wire is COW
cred. This requires a little practice, but
can be done. All stems OF all flowers are
wound the same way, and all leaves ex-
cept carnations must have the wire for mid
rib.
A bud can be made to go with each flower
by squeezing up a few petals and finishing
them with calyx and stem. When the leaves
are dry wind them to the main stem.
Carnations are made by cutting scalloped
circles. notching the edges and cutting out
ovals near the middle. Twist a little cot
ton with a wire. string the circles and
squeeze them. add the green calyK and wind
two long narrow leaves Of crepe paper in
with the main stem.
Roses are made by taking three strips Of
paper and winding them around a center
made OF wired cotton. Tie with linen
thread as you wind. When the strips, each
three inches wide, are all on, slash the top,
trim the corners round and curl the petals
thus formed with a knife. Calyxes are made
Of crepe paper. and the stems are wound
with two or three sprays of leaves. Buds
have one strip. and the calyx is nearly
closed around the bud.

to create a board of greater military rank
and distinction.
Stated in the order of their lineal rank
the membership of the board is as follows:
Lieut.. Gen. Nelson A. Miles, commanding
the army.
Major Gen. John R. Brooke, commanding
the department of the east.
Major Gen. Elwell c. Otis, commanding
the department of the lakes
Major Gen. s. B. NJ. Young. commanding

Col. Wallace F. Randolph, chief of artil
lery.
Lieut.. Col Samuel Reber, aid-de-camp to
Gen. Miles, who is also recorder of the
board.
Business of the Board.
The business of the board fs commensu-
rate with it's rank. 1t involves two i'm
portant questions; first, the entire reorgani-
zation of the existing system of military
posts, and, second, the selection of sites
for four large camps in different sections
of the country suitable for military ma
neuyer on an extensive scale. 1t will be
for the board to say whether any of the
existing posts shall be abandoned reduced
or enlarged, and whether the interests of
the service require the establishment of
new posts along important lines of travel.
The present policy of the department is
to concentrate the troops as far as possible
near points of strategic value. and to aban-
don many of the smaller posts in the west
and southwest the necessity for which
ceased with the pacification of the Indians.
The posts guarding the approaches on tn
Atlantic and Pacific oceans and the Cuff
of Mexico will be strengthened from time
to time. and similar course will natural
Iy be followed with respect to the posts OF
the Canadian border and the Mexican from
tier. There is disposition on the part of
some military experts to do away with
many Of the smaller posts on the northern

and southern frontiers, and to mobilize the
troops at few important points provided
transportation to any locality where the
presence of troops may be desired The
days when travel was long and tedious
have passed, and troops can now be trans
ported with certainty and dispatch TO All
points In the United States.
Opposition to Losing Army Posts.
The location of a military post means
considerable to many of the small towns in
the interior, and those now SO favored will
make most vigorous protest against
change. 1t is undoubtedly beneficial to
small communities to have In their neigh
borhood army posts, large or small. for
that means a certain share in the expendi-
lures of the soldiers every pay day 1t
is stated as a fact that some villages are
entirely maintained in that way. 1t is,
therefore, not surprising that considerab BILE
political pressure is being exercised to in
~. .nee ths action of the board with re-
Spect 20 the posts. Senator'S and represen.
tdlives lave been heard by the board
either in opposition to the removal of
post or in favor of the establishment Of
one, and numerous and yOluminous argu-
ments have been submitted to the board
by various municipalities whose interests
are affected. Inasmuch as the boards ses-
stons are secret these protests and appeals
are made almost entirely by correspond.
