FORM AERONAUTlc DIVISION
Branch of Texas Naval Militia to be
Formed at Houston.

Houston, Tex, April 19.-An aero
nautic division, with headquarters at
Houston, will be one of the branches
of the state naval militia being or
ganized and enlarged. This division
however will be the last TO be- or
ganized, as the deck and engineering
divisions, and company Of mar
ines will be the first perfected, in the
order named.
Houston is expected to furnish
half dozen men for the permanent
aeronautical base to be established in
Galveston. The flyers will be given
permanent instructions. Already for
ty are trying for places in the aerial
corps.
1t has been announced that the
navys summer cruise will be held
July 10 to 20, and that New Orleans,
Key West and Havana will be the
points visited. The destroyer Reid
has been assigned to the naval mill
tia for this cruise, and her officers
will act as instructions to the state
marines.
The local company of the naval
militia is being organized by w. X.
Hawthorne.

unnecessarily expensive. The people
to spend one-third of their income
for clothes, and the lowest class of
people spend nearly all of their mon
ey for clothes.
"The number of rolls of cloth
needed for a set of suits for man
or a woman in winter is on the aver
age about s; the length of thread
needed to sew them about 800 feet,
and the number of stitches about So
900. The garments have to be made
by the woman of the family by hand,
not by machines, and it requires days
to do the work. The women folk
have to devote their time to 1t all
the year round. For educated women
to devote their time to such service
is uneconomical from the point Of
view of the conservation OF human
energy.
eve propose to find some way by
which all these unnecessary expenses
may be eliminated"
Prizes have been offered for the
best models of kimonos, and all sorts
of kimonos for men, boys, and chill
dren at home, for visiting and for
school use are to be included. An
exhibition will be held and a COM
mittee will Judge the designs and
award prizes.
One reason why many Japanese
men wear western clothes today is
that they find them less expensive
than the Japanese dress. Different
kinds of kimonos and other gar
ments are required for various func-
tions, and the tailor bill of a well
dressed Japanese gentleman is very
high.

Get 81. OOO,OOO Appropriation.
nixon S. Plummer in Charlotte

nixon S. Plummer in Charlotte
Observer.)
Washington, D C., June DIR. Jo-
seph Hyde Pratt of Chapel Hill, State
Geologist of North Carolina. is here
on q three-fold mission. He vas call
ed into consultation by certain mem
bers of congressional road committee
on the road bills that are now pending
jim Congress.
He is working out plans for the big
Southern forestry conference" to be
held in Asheville July 1915. He is
continued three million dollar appro-
p"riation under the Weeks law.
Doctor Pratt is me of the fore
most authorities of the United States
or road matters. He believes that the
present is the best opportunity Con-
gress ever had to adopt good roads leg
i~slat.On, bills having passed both the
House and the Senate.
These tWO bills are not as far apart
as they appear to be at a casual
glance said ne this afternoon. Zone
Of the most striking differences is the
question of appropriation. To my
mind that's the least important part
oI the bill at the present time and is
large OF small for one Or two years.
The most important part of this legis-
latiOn IS concerned with the funda-
mental principles Of the two bills
the parts which deal with Federal aid
to the States. The principles are al
most identical in both bills"
Doctor Pratt thinks it would be easy
for the conference to get together on
this section at this time, for never be-
lore in all the efforts at Federal aid
legislation in road building have the
House and Senate been so neal to-
gether.
Dr.. Pratt says the Southern Forestry
Conference will be one of the biggest
IN the South. He expects at least
hve hundred visitors to Asheville for
the occasion,
This conference will be only
Southern in name" he said, because
the northeastern forestry, the Ameri-
can Forestry Association and several
others will be there at the same time.
Inc visitors will be shown over Mt.
Mitchell, Pisgah Forest and will be
given opportunity to observe methods
Of cutting and of fire protection. The
latter subject will be given special
consideration. Re~forestation promises
TO be one of the livest topics discuss
ed"
A subject that will be of particular
interest to North Carolina. primarily
the eastern part of the State-will be
discussed by Doctor Pratt under the
subject. Can our naval stores indus
Try in North Carolina be restored?
l believe that by the reproduction
OF the long leaf pine We can restore
mat industry" he said, North Caro-
ma once vas the leading State on the
Atlantic coast in this respect and re-
wal of it will mean thousands of
uoilars added to the income of people
OF the State.
Doctor Pratt thinks Congress will
IND 1t to be unwise to refuse this ap-
preparation since it would mean the
loss of the large machinery establish

!al TO the good purposes that are be-
