Guard In Good Shape.

Guard In Good Shape.
The Michigan National Guard, ac-
cording to Adjt. Gen. John 8. Bersey,
will start about the new year recruited
up to peace strength.
Some few companies are lacking on
the numerical requirements of the war
department, It is believed. AS TO
equipment the companies all rank
high.
The war department requisite II
65 men and three officers for a COM
pany of infantry, IS men to troop
Of cavalry and 1873 men for a battery
of artillery" said Colonel Bersey.
With the exception Of about three
companies, we have the IS men In the
entire infantry. Tho Lansing battery
OF artillery is short Of men and there
is one troop of cavalry which is also
short. The engineer and the signal
corps companies are up to the require
ment.
AS for equipment. we have every
thing that the government demands
except field glasses, which cannot be
had. Even the government cannot
get field glasses, owing to the fact that
all being made at the present time are
sold in Europe.
Those few companies who are short
some men have men in reserve they
could call on and who would respond
in case they we're needed for service.
The books show that all Of the com
panies except those have enumerated
are up to the required war department
strength"
The annual inspections of the guard
by the United States war department
officers will take place in February
and March.

PERMANENT AUTO TOPS.
Increasing Demand for This Equip
ment. Says Oldsmobile Agent.

"More and more permanent auto
mobile tops for summer use are com
ing into favor" says o. II. Larson,
president Of the Oldsmobile company,
of New York There was time when
the public insisted on riding out in the
open. So great was the novelty Of
motoring that even its discomforts
were hailed with enthusiasm. No
longer do people expose themselves 70
the hot sun when unnecessary. soil
their clothes with dust or hustle TO
raise the top at the sign of a rainfall.
Instead. they travel as comfortably as
possible. which means keeping the top
up all the time. This demand has been
met by such tops as the new Olds dem-
limousine. with its clean sweep Of space
overhead. free from top bows or other
distractions Extraordinary is the
utility Of this TOP. In winter, by
adding doors and sides, it can be CON
verted into closed car, rich looking
and substantial. with none of the
patched appearance which sometimes
dishgures convertible cars"
