ARKANSAS GUARD
 MUST BE RECRUITED
Companies Will Not be RecOg- nized by Federal Government Unless Recruited to Minimum Strength of 65 Men.

When the Arkansas National Guard returns from the border, and the com panies are again at their home sta tions, it is proposed to begin a vigor- ous campaign for increasing the mem- bership of the organization to meet the requirements of the new federal law. It is expected that the active in- terest of the commercial organiza- tions and the town authorities will be enlisted, as it is proposition that will make an appeal to the business interests of the community. The companies will not be recognized by the federal government unless they have been recruited to the minimum strength of 65 men each, and many are now below that number. Each company is worth to its home town about ten thousand dollars annually. This will be a considerable item to the towns of the state, and each city or town should do it's utmost to retain
 it's present company and build it up to the full strength. It is expected that some of the larger cities will support two or more companies.
 Under the new law, the pay of the officers and enlisted men of each com pany amounts to $4,396 annually, and in addition to this they will receive S3332 for two months training at the encampment maneuvers.
 It is interesting to note the dstri- button of the pay, which no one re- ceived under the old law. The annual pay is divided as follows: Captain $500, first lieutenant $40, second lieutenant $200, first sergeant $135 quartermaster sergeant $90, four ser geants $500, six corporals $37S, two cooks $1S0, one artificer $63, two mu- sicians 800, forty-eight private S2160
 It is announced by Adjt. Gen. Eng land that, in order to stimulate the
 interest of the men in the National Guard. it is imperative that towns anC cities provide suitable armories, li- braries, gymnasiums, bowling alleys , and club rooms for the members ot , the companies, where adequate facili. ties may exist for the proper care oI federal and state property.
 This" says Gen. England, lis mol only a business proposition that vii appeal to hundreds of localities in tho state, but it will wonderfully improve the morale of their young men by af
 fording them physical as well as men tai training, and keeping them off thu streets and away from other question able resorts. The energetic co-opera tion of all commanding officers mus
 oe insisted upon, as upon this depend
 the life of the organizations
 ' There is nothing whatever to indi
 cate an early return of the troop
 from the border In fact, recent de velopments in the renewed activities of the elusive Villa indicates a nor, protracted campaign.
