woman of thirty has developed. She has learned
the value of dress, how to attire herself in Z

than the handsome feminine in her teens or be-

From my view don't think dress has much to

MOORE DEFIES MILITARY BOARD
Adjutant General Says He'll Seek In

Columbia, June 10.-A fight between
Adit. Gen. Moore and the majority of
the members Of the military board,
composed of Governor Blease, Gen.
Willie Jones and Col. Julius E. Cogs-
well, was staged tonight, when the
adjutant general declared that he
would seek to prevent by an injunc-
ton from the courts the carrying out
of the order of the board to pay the
allotment of 1925 of the military funds
to Company B, 1st Infantry, of Lib
erty Hill. This amount, due the COM
pany for 1912, had been held up by
the adjutant general because of the
failure of the Liberty Hill company
to come up to the requirements OF
the law, and over his protest the mil
itary board ordered It paid.
N. S. Richards is the captain OF the
Liberty Hill company, he having sue
ceeded his brother, Railroad Commits

Gen. Moore the military board late
this afternoon ordered the allotment
of the military fuNds belonging to
Company B, 1st infantry, of Liberty
Hill, paid, this amounting to $225.
Adjutant Generals Attitude.
This allotment had been held up
by the adjutant general because, as
he stated, the plan Of distributing the
money pro rata among the forty mem
bers of the company was illegal, the
appropriation being for maintenance.
Capt. N. S. Richards, Of this company,
reported that $12 of the amount would
go for armory rent, and the balance
be paid out to the members, which
the adjutant general held to be ille-
gal, and an opinion of the attorney
general held that the proposed plan
of distribution was illegal. The COM
pany also failed to show the required
so per cent of attendance of its mem
bers on all drills, as required by the
military code, its report for the past
year showing only so per cent.
The military board, by vote Of 8
