plans I have made" said Capt. Louis

have started out to get first-clasS or
ganization. war or no war; and am 60
ing to have it. In addition to the new
men joining / am still hammering
away at the delinquents and intend to
make them come around. The near-war
succeeded in bringing most Of my men
to their guns regularly. but there are
still few who / think don't know a
battle has been fought, but before
what real war is have no intention
of being hard on the men. but they
enlisted for a term of three years, and
l will insist on getting three years
service out of them. and will resort to
the summary court to do SO.
We will soon be in our new armory
up on y street and it will be
more pleasure for the men to turn out.
We will have better facilities in every
respect to carry on our work. If l
haven't got the best organization in the
guard now. you can just bet that l will
have it then"
Rumor at the battery headquarters has

tFhluiuifstoh ploto.t
for practice purposes, and cold or warm
rain or shine, Lieut.. Sigourney has al
ways been present on these cruises and
has done much to make them success
full.
Plans are being made by Lieut.. Fred
erick A. Morhart, surgeon of the Naval
battalion. to equip his branch of the
service so that it could take the field
on moments notice. Last week, with
DR.. John p Coping. superintendent
of the George Washington University
Hospital and DIR. A. T. Tibbets, both
chief hospital stewards IN the naval
militia. he made up acquisitions for a
large amount of hospital equipment
which will be Immediately turned over
to the Navy Department to fill.
There will be field pouches with all
kinds of bandages, filters. instruments
in fact, everything that surgeon
would need to take care of all kinds
of cases in the field.
The hospital detachment of the Naval
Battalion is one of the most interest
ing branches of the service, and num-
bers of the young men who enlist make
application to take course in hospital
work. Here, under the direction of
Lieut.. Morhart. the men are taught
the methods of caring for the sick and
wounded in the field. Bandaging of all
kinds is shown. and they are given all
branches of first-aid work.
This branch of the service also is
called upon to make the physical ex-
animation of all men who apply for en-
listment in the battalion. and under
the new law. which puts the naval
militia on regular service basis, the
medical examination is a stiff one, and
an applicant for enlistment must be
in frst-class physical condition before
the surgeons signature Of approval is
affixed to the certificate.

United States and Gen. Huerta the
list Battery Field Artillery, n. G. d. c.,
is using the time to make all prepara-

means at hand to induce recruits into

first commands to resort to display ad-
vertising in the newspapers Some of
the battery members are extremely

I'VE want our concentration camp in
