NAVAL TRAINING FOR CIVILIANS

Thanks 10 Plattsburg, the summer
training camp for civilians who want
to acquire some military knowledge is
familiar quantity. 1t is now to be
supplemented by summer training
cruise in connection with the nance
uvres of the fleet The Navy Depart
ment has authorized the recruiting Of
civilians for this cruise, lasting from
August Is to September IL. They
will be assigned to reserve battleships,
go per cent of the crew TO be civilians,
the remaining 40 per cent to be reg.
uar sailors. On shipboard the re-
cruits will receive practical training,
part of each day being spent in study,
in order to bring out any special
aptitude for specialized duties which
the recruits may possess.
The cost of this cruise is slight.
$50 for uniform and board plus tho
transportation to and from the ship to
which the recruit may be assigned.
The benefits to the individual are OBJ
yious--a cheap, interesting, healthful
and distinctly novel vacation. Beyond
that, though, is the benefit to the
country of broadening the knowledge
of the navy, of quickening popular
interest in its work, Of enrolling a
body of men who in emergency could
be called on to serve, with the assur-
ance that they would be in some de-
gree qualified, and Of fostering and
heightening Americanism.
Since America has ceased to be a
sea-faring nation interest in things
nautical has gradually simmered down
to the racing Of yachts and the speed
ing Of motor boats. Popular concern
over the desperately inadequate state
of the army has produced widespread
manifestations of desire to repair ma
tional indifference by individual and
group preparedness. There should be
at least as keen an interest in forming
sort of civilian reserve with some
special knowledge, some degree Of
preparation, for service in the navy if
emergency arise. The naval training
cruise for civilians offers the oppor-
tunity for good Americans to benefit
themselves and to show their willing |
ness to help their country when neces-
sary. 1t deserves to be popular and
successful.-New York Tribune.

RELIEVES EDITOR OF WORRY

We learn that our high school grad
uating class has sent away to a mail
order printing house for this years
commencement announcements, with
out even giving the home printer :
chance TO make a bid for the work
OF course the mail-order printer will
give the class big writeup, telling
what a nice lot of promising young
men and women graduated with high
honors, tell about the baccalaureate
sermon, publish the graduation pro.
gram and all those little side issues
that are required by the average grad.
uating class and that the local editor
is always pleased to attend to free OF
charge, thereby relieving us of con-
siderable work that we would have
otherwise been willing to assume
Ute iowa Independent
A lot might be said in connection
with the above, even without bringing
the mail order houses into account. II
is the large amount Of free advertising
wanted of newspaper, and then TAX
ing all the job work to some side
issue job plant running in direct oppo-
sition TO il. All this applies to schools,
lodges, different societies, lawyers and
politicians down to those who get auc-
ton bills printed at side-plant, and
then asks the editor Of a newspaper
to give him a free writeup of it. The
greatest damage that can be done
newspaper plant is to split up its pat
ronage. This makes il hard to know
how tosorganize its working force. 1t
robs the plant Of source Of revenue
it really deserves, The man, or soci-
ETY., or lodge, or school, or any other
organization that patronizes an oppo-
sition TO a newspaper plant, damages
a newspaper just so much, and puts It
behind so much. Why should those
who do this in detriment to the news
paper ever expect anything in return ?
A newspaper must live. If it is of any
benefit to a town in all the require
ments that newspaper fills, it should
live. To live, and prosper, and be a
worthy feature among all other enter
prises in town, it needs all the patron
age it can get. OF all the enterprises
in town not one is as poorly remun-
Grated for the amount of work they
do as a newspaper plant. You don't
believe this, do you? Go into a news
paper plant and ask to see the ex-
penses for one week. First, how
quickly the type and machinery wear
out, and the press rollers, and the
waste of stock, and the incidentals and
what these all cost. II costs money 10
run well equipped newspaper and job
plant---lots Of it, Ii cannot live on a
lot of gush and hot air, free adver-
Using, or patronage that goes away.
IL you want a good newspaper in a
town, show your appreciation for il.
An editor is human like other people. |
II is not preaching monopoly to talk
this, but business Simply an effort TO
impress upon the people the fact that
a newspaper that works for the inter
est OF town, that becomes factor in
its business and social affairs, that
desires to have a high rating both at
home and in other sections adjacent
70 il. is deserving OF all the patronage
IL can get in order to place and keep
itself on the plane where it belongs
