EFFICIENCY RATING
ABOUT NOVEMBER 1
Every Government Employe Will
Find Accurate Record Kept
of Services.

To every employe,in the services of the
government departments will find him
self working on an efficiency rating
basis about November /. He will find
that an accurate record is being kept of
all services he Is required to perform.
and of how he performs them. Poor
work will Immediately be brought to the
attention of the department heads, and.
as the records will also be filed with the
Civil Service Commission, II will be no
ticed by these officers.
Civil Service Commissioner John A. Nc
Ilhenny Is now engaged in working out
the details of the proposed efficiency
records. These records will show at any
time a close estimate Of an employees
services TO the government, whether he
Is giving faithful service or sighting the
tasks given him.
Government employees are following the
plan with much interest. They are
anxiously awaiting the announcement of
how the efficiency ratings are to be ap-
piled. and many Of the more ambitious
employees entertain the hope OF making
excellent records and winning consequent
recognition under the new system.
Plans OF the Civil Service Commission
are still in an undeveloped state. How
best to make the ratings show a fair
record of each employees services has
only been solved In outline. Commission
er McIlhenny says that he has a well de-
fined plan in mind. but that he has not
progressed far enough with Its elabora-
ton to give any outline for publication

MILITIA AVIATION
TRAINING STOPPED
Army. Fliers Discontinue Teaching
Guardsmen How to Fly Because :.
of Commercialism.

instruction of officers of the militia IN
aviation at the army camps will cease at
once because a militia officer, said to be
Col. winder. of the Ohio National Guard.
has become a professional civilian flyer
in exhibitions and now exploits his
army" training for money purposes.
Instruction in aviation was offered to
State National Guard officers for the
purpose of establishing the science In the
militia, but this purpose no longer can
be served. It is stated by officials. Army
officers are forbidden to fly for money or
participate IN exhibitions for money
gain. and when army instruction was Of
fered the militia officers, 1t was pre-
sumed they would observe similar rules
as those governing the army. .-
The possibility OF a militiaman making
use OF training at the governments ava
tion camps for his own profit was, OF
course, foreseen, and some officers pre-
dicted that it would make the plan inea-
pedient.
Col. winder's case. it Is asserted.
proves that 1t Is inexpedient 10 train the
State National Guard officers at the army
aviation camps. II is claimed that Col
winder, who was at the government
camps at Augusta and College Park. en-
gagged himself. soon after his return to
Ohio with his diplomas. to fly for a
manufacturer Of aeroplanes. Since then.
II is said. he has advertised that he
would fly IN exhibitions. and that he had
been trained at Augusta and College
Park.
II was stated authoritatively last night
that no more militia officers will be In
structed at the army camps. The train
ing of the militia officers is unnecessary,
some officials say. To train a national
|, guardsman for State which will not
buy an aerOplane is a waste OF instruc-
ton. they say. and where a State buys
an aeroplane the seller is always willing
to instruct men in its operation.

A Skin Tightener
to Reduce Wrinkles
tFrom Popular Medicirc.l

In beauty culture, as in the treatment
OF disease, the tendency nowadays is TO
seek the removal OF causes rather than to
treat symptoms or effects. In the matter
OF wrinkles. for instance, we know that
the lines or burrows are caused by the
skin becoming loose in places, SO it does
not perfectly fit the flesh beneath. The
skin then wrinkles" or says. Naturally
the proper thing TO do is TO tighten the
skin-makc it fit-;hcn there's no room
for lines, wrinkles and folds, and no sur
plus skin to sag or bag

pose is: Saxolite, o., in q pint witch.

is truly remarka bic, especially as results
arc immediate. Ask tho druggist for the
