SCHOOL FOR EVERY MAN IN NAVY
General Order Issued by Secretary
Daniels Went Into Effect
Yesterday.

WASHINGTON, Jan. "A general
order issued by Secretary Of the Navy
Daniels went into effect, establishing
on all ships in the navy new system
OF education for petty officers and en-
listed men. The order is in line with
his often expressed desire to see the
navy made great training school for
the double purpose of enabling am
bilious enlisted men to permanently
earn their living in civil life.
The secretary has directed that in
struction shall be carried under two
general heads, one academic and the
other professional or technical. The
first is designed for the newer and
younger men in the service who may
not have had good educational advan-
tages before enlistment as foundation
on which their technical instruction
may be based
On each ship the instruction will be
carried on under the direction of the
commanding officer, assisted by all the
commissioned officers and such war
rant and petty officers as are found
qualified The instruction period will
be from 1 to 2:30 p. m. each day, with
the exception of Saturday, Sundays
and holidays.

the proposed Pennsylvania freight ter

of the Oklahoma Jim Crow law applica-
Bile both to intrastate and interstate

Application Is being made by the

with interest at four per cent, not ex-
ceeding 100000 sterling.
Sixty eight new steel underframe ca
bosses are being built by the Lehigh

of this kind retired.
These new cabooses are furnished
with leather cushioned seats and ice
boxes. Twelve new steel tugs have
also been put in service at New York
recently by the company and more are
in process of construction.
These tugs are equipped with tele-
phones and the sleeping quarters are

Quite the most startling peach of a

in frothing ruffles of shadow lace, are
attached to pink ribbon covered gar
