Each Man a Reeruiter.
A new recruiting pran was launched
by Major Reed yesterday. He gave
every man in camp tho entire day OFF
to go TO his home, ana make every
effort to induce friends to enlist. The
men we're not required to return to
camp until 1880 o'clock in the evening
at which time they are supposed to re-
tire for the night. In leaving camp
the men were instructed to do their
best TO secure more men.
Again, this ia of. relieved the men
from their strong desire Of getting
into town" The strict guard lines
maintained ct camp have caused many
arrests Of militiamen trying to run
the guard line. The camp was prac-

their services for the aid OF their
country. He said II is not the man
who has enlisted who needs the

shown a reserve. are the ones to be
pitied Mr. Jackson declared the men
who have enlisted are not TO be
pitied, but praised He said he had
no fear for those in camp. They
have done their full duty, and he was
sure they could all give a good ac-
count of themselves
He expressed the belief that their
experience in camp and in army life
in general will make real men of
them. strong morally and physically
and mentally. and that they will be
much stronger hereafter than those
who remain behind.
Father Campbell's Interest.
Militiamen of the Roman Catholic
faith attended services at st. Peters
Catholic Church, New Castle. The
Rev. f. V. Campbell preached the ser
, mon. Father Campbell spoke OF the
patriotism shown by the men. and
urged every man TO do his duty as a
soldier and as a good Christian and
then referred 10 the spiritual side o.
their lives. He spoke of contrition
and pointed out how hard IL is for |
man TO make perfect contrition at thu
moment he is dying after he has live'
life of sin. He therefore urged hi
hearers TO lead good lives all th'
time and thus be prepared so tha
when the times does come for thei
being ushered into the presence o
God they viii find il an easy matte

Father Campbell asked for the nam

ulars and rosaries. He told the sol
diers that on the day they leave camp
for the front he will say a mass for
them, Catholic and non-Catholics. and
Will thereafter remember at his daily
mass every man who is killed in ac-
ton.
Hospital Is Empty.
The hospital is empty. There IS not
case now on the grounds requiring
the constant care of a DOCTOR Each
day there is, however, a number Of
bruised finger or .eet, or some
scratches to bandage, which ordinarily
would not require the attention of
doctor. Cases of indigestion and like
Illnesses are treated often by the doc
tors.
The order, as well as the health Of
the camp is good. No boistefous noise
is allowed after taps.
General Wickershcm and Governor
Charles r. Miller together looked over
the camp yesterday. The governor is
we'll pleased with the manner in which
the camp was being conducted.
The men snxiously awaited the re-
suming today of rife practice, which
has been omitted from the routine on
account OF sore arms as a result OF
vaccination and incubation This
practice is most fascinating for tie
men, and they onter into it with much
enthusiasm and spirit This morning
Companies E and G went to the rife
range for their first trials.
Busy on the Fourth.
Tomorrow is the Fourth Of July,
but still the men will be given their
daily routine of drills, as Major Reed
feels that every possible moment
should be given to this work, as
much time has already been lost.
General Wickersham this morning
said in regards to the routine for to-
morrow They have plenty OF work
on hand; we leave the celebration to
those fellows who will not enlist
with us. There are good boys in
camp, ready and willing to work; a
fine bunch of boys"

The Anglo-French offensive, after
the first thrust deep into the Ger

into a steady rolling movement with

ANOTHER OFFER RUMORED
FOR SECRETARY M'ADOO
Treasury Head Gould Accept Position
From Amy Institution Not In
Federal Reserve System

WASIiINGTON. November cot is
known that the Secretary Of the Treas
ury. William q. McAdo" some time
ago received most fattcrinE offer To
financial institutions OF the country.
The salary consideration was said to
have been exceedingly large. 1t is be =
lteved Secretary McAdoo has received
more than one such offer, and that he
VIII soon be the recipient Of another.
The Federal reserve act provides that
the Secretary Of the Treasury. the as
sistant secretaries and the Comptroller
OF the Currency shall no; accept EN-
ployment with any financial institution
that il member o.! the Federal re-
serve system within two years after
severinE their connection with Fed
cral servirc
This would mean that Secretary Nc
Adoo would not be eligible TO accent
any position with national bank or
with any OF the trust companies or
state banks that have Joined the sys-
TEN.
There are few Of the latter. Nearly
the entire Federal reserve system is
made UP Of national banks. The law
would not prohibit Mr.. McAdoo from
accepting berth with any big trust
company that IL not member of the
system. and most of the big trust COM
panies OF the country have remained
aloof II is believed that the offers
made TO Mr.. McAdoo are from such
sources. and his acceptance would not
be prohibited by law

Especial 10 The Times Dispatchl
DASNlLLE, Va. November 2O.-At
the opening of the new high school
building in Danvlle. on Friday, Rose
we'll Page, Second Auditor OF Virginia
made the address. taking as his sub
ject The Literary Fund of Virginia
and Its Father. James Barbour" He
related the history of the fund under
the Harbour act OF February ., 1910.
whereby all fines except militia hnes)
and all eschea;s and forfeitures came
into tse Literary Fund. He showed
how this fund. as increased by the Mer-
Ger amendment adding funds received
from the United States. had been called
on 10 help the University of Virginia.
the Medical College of Virginia then
associated with lIampden- Sidney Col
lese). the public schools OF the State.
and even the Confederate government.
Mr.. Page told OF the Williams act OF
1906 under which more than Sl,500,000
Of the fund had been lent on long term
and low-rate bonds to the school dis
trictS of the State for building better
schoolhouses. and how, in due course.
the interest was paid annually for the
benefit Of the public schools and the
principal. amounting to 100000. was
repaid to he lent again or invested as

jcct TO the requirements OF the statute
Last year the court fines received by
the fund amounted 10 $l36.644.25. the
oyster fines to s2.S7S.75, from waste and
unappropriated lands S137.44. The total
investments of the fund now amount
TO 1882. 076.75
Mr.. Page declared that James Bar
bour was one Of Virsinia's most illus
trious sons. and had been Governor and
minister to Great Britain. but that
nothing that he had done entitled him
to such lasting remem brance as the Lit
erary Fund act Of 1910. fie suggested
that. beginning with the school chill
dren OF Danville. a fund be raised from
contributions of not more than cent a
child and forwarded by the principal Of
the schools to the Second AUDITORS
office. where an account would be
opened. to be known az the James Bar
bour Monument Fund. TO establish a
memorial to The Father Of the Liter
airy Fund" whose remains now lie in
an unmarked grave. The suggestion
was received enthusia stically. and Mr..
Page believes that monument to Gov
crnor Barbour will be put up by the
school children OF Virginia. whose con-
tributions will be acknowledged In the
Educational Journal.
