tendance at the Great Falls camp meet
ing today. Last night every cot at
the encampment was occupied, and a
score of jealous clergymen who arrived

the big auditorium tent. More than
5000 persons attended the II O'Clock
service this morning.
Before the smoke from a hundred
camp kitchens began to curl through
the network of foliage above the tents

on rough, rustic tables in the center
of the huge circle of tents. the hrst
experience meeting of the Biblical
institute was held.
The Rev. 9. +. Sutton, of Fauquler
county. Va, presided. He called upon
clergymen or laymen at random to give
brief impromptu descriptions of their
spiritual experiences. Women and chill
dren were asked to talk, and some OF
them gave graphic accounts OF their
religious emotions. The meeting was
in the nature of an evangeliStic rally,
and there was constant enthusiasm.
Every Falls Church car from Wash
ington was crowded with worshipers
during the morning hours, and by the
time the II o'clock service began the

Ten Children Are
In Camp Good Will

Ten children at Camp Good Will will
be Christened at o'clock this after
noon by the Rev. c. NJ. Heffer, of the
Brightwood Methodist Church. Their
mothers, who are staying at the camp,
and their fathers, who will go out for
the occasion, will be their sponsors in
baptism. Mrs. E. X. Bushee, who su-
pervises the camp, and several of the
workers assisting her, will act during
the services
The baptizing of the children, whose
ages are from a few months to ten
years old, is unique in the history of
Camp Good Will No effort is made by
those in charge of the camp to bring
any religious creed into prominence
and the growth Of a religious sentiment
was due to the interest the women and
children at the camp took in the volun-
tary services of young people from the
city. One by one, the mothers, to the
number of ten, requested that their
children be baptized.
The children of the camp attended
Sunday school at Brightwood as usual
this morning. The voluntary services
this evening will be conducted by
party Oh young people from the First
Congregational Church.
Mrs Rudolph Kaufman loaned her
automobile to the camp yesterday after
noon, and several of the mothers there
enjoyed a ride. None of them had ever
been in an automobile before.
The usual show" will be given by
the children tomorrow evening" 1t is
hoped that some watermelons will be
donated to make feast such as was
enjoyed last Monday night

OLD CONTROVERSY.
OVER RANK IN NAVY .
APT TO Be REVIVED
Staff Officers Seeking Legis-
I lation From Con-
greSS. =.

A revival OF the old line and staff con-
troversy In the navy is imminent. Par
ties at interest are making efforts to
obtain legislation from the present Con-
gress looking to the designation of all
staff officers by their equivalent rank.
Such 4 movement will, of course, meet
with the determined opposition Of the
line officers of the navy.
1t is believed by some of those back
ing the movement that II would allevi-
ate, IL 1t did not wipe out, this source
Of continuous irritation. For several
years all staff officers of the army have
been designated by the rank they hold
both in official correspondence and in
the official register.
1t is possible that similar action will
be taken with the navy. The Navy
Department and the line officers have
always opposed any movement which
gave to the staff officers an equivalent
rank.
The question was actively agitated
several years ago, when Surgeon Stokes
was placed in command of the hospital
ship Relief on the Pacific coast. Line
officers felt that only officers of the line
should command a naval vessel

For the benefit of those who wish to-
reduce their flesh quickly and safely,

OFFICERS Of GUARD
Go INTO CAMP FOR
STUDY Of TACTICS
Begin a Three Days Course
of instruction at Fort
Myer Today.

Commissioned officers of the Dis
trict National Guard, of whom there
are about $50, went into camp at
Fort Myer this morning, preparatory
to a three days instruction course
in military tactics. The three days
TO be spent at the Virginia military
post will constitute a part of the
fourteen days encampment of the
militia this year.
The course upon which the COM
missioned officers start today is an
innovation in guard circles. With a
view Of showing the officers just
what the noncommissiOned officers
and enlisted men of the militia are
supposed to do, and to show them
in the most forceful way. the com
missioned officers will play the role
of enlisted men for three days.
At the conclusion of the Fort Myer
school, it is thought that the officers
will look upon the duties of their
subordinates in a more enlightened
way.
The militia officers this year will
have absolute control of their camp
near Frederick, Md. A few officers
from the regular army. detailed by
the War Department as instructors,
will be in camp, however, but the
camp will be the Districts own
camp" The officers, it is thought,
will be in a better position to man
age affairs after their three days at
the Fort Myer school
The First Battery. Field Artillery,
and the Signal Corps of the guard
will leave Washington Tuesday
morning for Frederick over the over
land route. The camping ground will
be reached Thursday at noon. The
infantry organizations will reach the
camp Friday at noon.
