MILITIA OFFICERS
SHY AT COOKING
They Do Not Take Kindly to the Idea
Of Making Biscuits and
Pies. .-

WASHINGTON, Oct. why do
militia officers shy at receiving in
structions in baking biscuits and pro-
ducing pies, an acquisition that the
war department stands ready to sup
ply7 This is the question the division
of militia affairs today is seeking vain
" TO answer. Although congress has
supplied funds for such instruction for
wears past, militia officers have evinced
no desire TO take up the rolling pin in
defense of their country.
The department maintains army
schools for bakers and cooks, in which
il is designed 10 instruct officers in the
art of cooking with a view to their
teaching the men under the command
and supervising intelligently the cook
ing of food in the field. The militia
officers have baked at the proposal,
however. and the department militia
officials to attend such schools.
Aside from an ability to knead
dough, the military requirements de-
mand that a budding officer-cook
''must be of sound health and of good
moral character.
Incidentally in setting forth the re-
quirements the militia divisions bar Of
fccrs above the rank of colonel. The
appeal for officer-cooks, however, is
genuine.

I was endeavoring to disclose this
feeling to the officers and was ask
ing them to cooperate by showing
consideration, fair dealing and JUS
tice in all their relations with the
men. / should dislike very much to
feel that my attitude toward the
army was misund erstood. The fact
that the army has made a great ad-
vance OF recent years along all lines
is acting as an Incentive to us. who
are so vitality concerned. and I feel
sure that the spirit in which we are
attempting to act will result in con-

/ have been informed that
some of the friends of Mr.. w
q. Ross, defeated candidate for
Town Marshal on the night of
April 9Th, 1918, before Board of
Aldermen, are stating that Mr..
Ross was mistreated by me as
Mayor. These statements ere not
true whether made on account of
information received by them
that was not correct or whether
deliberately made.
From information that has
zen furnished Inc as Mayor. Mr..
Ross has misrepresented either
wilfully or by mistake, my ac-
tion, in regard to the cause of an
election for Town Marshal on the
night of April s, 1913, by the
Board of Aldermen.
The facts in connection with
the election of a Town Marshal
are as follows:
When was elected Mayor of
lexington ard after | had gone
into office, | found that Mr.. Ross
Ind Mr.. Franklin were not get
ting along. they had conflicting
claims OH account of costs as
against each other under Mayor
Gathings, one accusing the other
of not settling correctly. At times
they almost reached words in re-
card to same. Both men made
complaint time and again that
they could not serve with each
other ;-again they had some. troub-
les over Justice Of the Peace

or a period of one year tried to
q every way advise them so they
could both continue in Office. ev-
II advising them to sue one au
,ther relative to costs if they
could not agree; these conditions
continued until night of Board
# Aldermen meeting in March,
1913, when the Board submitted
o a statement from each party
but refused to take action in re
gard to same. At that time
cold the Board that If they did
not do something, | would, and
would not submit 60 snch ser.
vice as he Town was securing
from said men. At times |
know these men actually did not
speak-so | was informed by
Them, and their cooperation in
work for the Corporation was
never satisfactory.
Immediately after M arc h
meeting of Board, | informed
different members that said
men had to resign or l void Gus
pend them. Later gave each
of said Marshals their choice Of
q suspension or a resignation.
They both rendered designations
neither of which was volun
tarily made. If they had not
they would have been suspended
as / thought l had sufficient
grounds to do SO and still think
so.
The Board at it's meeting on
April 9Th, elected Mr.. Franklin
as Town Marshal by a vote of 5
to 2, and he is serving in said
position, and will continue to do
