Vacation Friends.

From the Milwaukee Journal
its a strange vacation when on.
doesn't find a new comrade. This ,s
natural enough when every new place,
even every new year in an old place.
brings different combination of hu-
manity. It's easy to find comrades, for
every one is bent on the same errand
rules are relaxed. and two or three days
OF play let you farther into a fellow
human beings heart than a score of con-
Nentional meetings. You begin to know
the man you fish with. and If the biting
is poor. you may know him pretty well.
Even when companions don't talk much
the thoughts that come are likely to be
spoken from the inner part of man
that is very far from the surface in
working hours.
This making of friends is one of the
best things about a vacation. It is just
as truly recreating your life as are the
muscular exercise and the opening of
your lungs to deep draughts of pure
air. 1t is opening your soul to fresh
human influence. widening your SYM
pathies. giving you one more anchor to
uindward. one more stake in life. All
ship possibilities of a vacation. and
with all that store of new health to
seek, it oughtnt to be necessary to
say much about the kind Of friend to
look for. There is only one kind Of
friend worth having-only one kind
worth botherine about even for the
pastime of week or two.

CABINETS RESIGNATION
IS EXPECTED IN ITALY
Present Ministry to Remain in
Power Until King Decides
on New One.

ROME, June 10.-The resi- znation of
the Italian cabinet is momentarily ex-
pected. The ministry, however, will
remain in power until the king has
taken his decision regarding the
formation of a new cabinet
The government failed to obtain a
majority on vote last night in the
chamber of deputies on the budget Of
the minister of the interior. The vote
was 100 against the budget to 12o for it.
The parliamentary session was sus-
pended to permit the government to
prepare an exposition of its policy.
Premier Salandra is acting as minister
of the interior.

Resigned in May. 1915.

The present cabinet, under the
premiership of Salandra, resigned in
May. 1915, as a result primarily of n
crisis precipitated by expenditures for
war preparations and the question OF
taxation. The king accepted the resigna-
ton of the ministry. and sought sew
eral statesmens services for the
formation of a new cabinet. but theE
declined to undertake the task
Premier Salandra finally consented to
remain in Office.
On several occasions dissension has
arisen between the supporters and op-
ponents of the government, which
threatened to disrupt the ministry. but
the chamber of deputies on each oc-
casion passed a vote of confidence in
the government.
The failure Of the government 70
carry the budget OF the ministry Of the
interior in the chamber OF deputies
however is responsible for the present
situation.

Strength of Organization.

| Our present organization consists Of
the following mounted troops in addi-
tion to our infantry:
| Two batteries of field artillery. a
mounted signal company. and a troop
of cavalry.
additional cavalry and artillery
should be organized. The existing bat
terieS have 80 horses, which are kept
70" drill purposes throughout the year.
These horses are now stabbed at 45s
| f60 Virginia avenue, for which rem
| tai of $3.50 per annum IS paid. The two
| batteries. the signal company, the hos
pital company, the company of coast
| artillery, are now quartered at go 1sf
street, for which an annual rental of
| $4,000 is paid. The mounted organiZa-
tions have no place whatever in the
District of Columbia to hold mounted
drills. An application for the use of
portion of eht unused portion Of
| poses has been denied. The batteries
now go out into Maryland Saturday y
afternoons and stay over Sunday for
] the purpose of drill. The cavalry troop
| goes to Fort Myer for purpose of drill.
This is unsatisfactory even in sum
mer, but when winter comes it will be
| very disadvanta geous. Some sort of a
shed, al least 100 feet wide and 200 feet
| long, in which the mounted organiza-
tons can drill is needed. No such place
| is known and it is doubtful whether a
suitable place can be obtained unless it
| is built for the purpose. Probab bly, it
could not be obtained unless authority
be granted to make a lease for a period
of five years. with tho right on the
part of the militia to renew, if the same
is desired. as was done in the leSlsla-
tive, executive and judicial appropria
tIon act with reference to a building
for the Department of La Dor.
4 further reason for the erection OF
suitable building IS the need TO guard
against loss of equipment by ire

Public Tennis Courts.

From the Syracuse Post-Standard
1t is absurd that the city should pre-
pare and equip tennis courts In the
parks for the public and that it should
confine the use of them to two months
in the year. The simple statement of
the proposition is its condemnation.
Inasmuch as the park departm ent
lacks funds to provide supervisors and
caretakers for the remainder of the
outdoor season. it should at least per
nit the tennis players to bring their
own nets and to enjoy for another
month the opportunity for recreation
which the parks offer. We may safely
trust the tennis guild not only to be-
have itself without city supervision.
but by cooperative effort to keep the
courts marked without city help.

Two Provisions Recommended.

Along with the estimates two provi-
sions were reported as recommenda-
tions to the House, a follows:
THAT the commanding general of the
militia of the District of Columbia is
authorized to enter into contract or
contracts for the lease of an armory
stable, drill shed and warehouse for
cavalry. field artillery. signal corps and
hospital corps troops in one building or
separately for a period not to exceed
five years. renewable at the option of
the said commanding general for an ad-
ditional period of not exceeding FIVE
wears at an annual rental not to exceed
ss.s05.
That the said commanding general
may renew for the fiscal year 1917, or a
portion thereof. the building known as
$50 1st street northwest now occupied
as an armory for mounted and other
troops. at an annual rental of SO. 900,
and the building known as 457-46o Vir-
ginia avenue. used as stables and ware
houses. at an annual rental of $3.50,
paying therefor rental not in excess
of the current rentals.
