given off at the point of impact is
sufficient to ignite not only gas, but

is highly gratified at the showing
made.
During the month of June there
were over thirty applications for en-
listment and of this number IS have
been taken into the service.
This is a far better showing than
made in a number of recruiting
offices in much larger cities than
Hattiesburg. The prospect is that
July will also prove good month.
Arrangements have also been made
by the government to open up a naval
recruiting station and for this pul
pose room 207 in the Carter building
has been secured The naval station
however, will not be permanent, the
quarters having been leased only from
July 13 to July 25, The naval recruit
