LIST OF TACOMA
RECRUITS NOW 60

Lieut.. Cronander announced
today Troop B would recruit for
several days yet. 1t is the in
tention of troop officers to weed
out the men who would be un-
able to withstand the grilling
siege along the border.
The first hours of hard drill at
Cosgrove are proving to the men
that cavalry life is not all play
and that it requires the huskiest
type of manhood.
Jeff" Christman, Tacoma's
fastest flyweight boxer, was a
disappointed visitor at the re-
cruiting station today.
Jeff" said the papers got his
goat. I'm not a coward and |
want to fight, but | am 20 inches
too Short" he bemoaned.
Sixty Signed Up.
Local officers differ with the
reports issued from Seattle that
Tacoma has fallen down on the
recruiting job. Lieut.. Cronander
today said it is all a mistake.
Now that we have a recruiting
station and it's location is known,
the men are flocking in. In the
end 1t will be found Tacoma will
have given her full quota of
troops.
Tacoma has recruited 60 men,
instead of 35 as has been charged.
This was done with conditions
anything but favorable
A Victrola has been placed In
the Pacific avenue station and
patriotic airs greet the passers-
by.
IS for Infantry.
Nearly 20 men were recruited
for the state infantry service yes
terday in Tacoma. A great num-
Der of the rocks have already
been sent to Seattle, where they
will go into immediate training.
Lieut.. Shaw, Corporal Waldron
and Private Lee of the Sth artil-
lery have been detached to handle
the recruiting at the station at
1905 Pacific. Lieut.. Lindborg,
Serjt. Simmons, Private Davis
and Bugler Grant have opened a
station at Puyallup.
The list of recruits SO far fol-
lows.

POLICEM EN-
May LOSE
THEIR JOBS

Detective Captain Fackler, Po-
lice Captain Cornish and Night
Detective Captain Geary, all APP
pointees of Commissions Pettit,
have no right to hold their posi-
lions under the civil service laws,
and any person who take exam
nations for either position could
walk in and take the job.
This Is the substance of an an
nouncement by Secretary Ellis
worth of the civil service board
today.
Police and Commissioner Pet
tit maintain that the appoint
ments were in reality promotions.
and that the civil service board
has nothing to do with such cases.
Ellsworth holds, however, that
any person, even an outsider,
could take the civil service exam
nation for either Of The three
police captaincies, and II they
passed, 1t would be the duty of
Petit to GUST his present cap
tains.

ANY GIRL-A STORY TOLD

THAT is good idea, Margie.

and father only seemed to live to

Il entered Vassar very early,
and my four years there were

ME and | had entertained them
in relays at my home on holidays
and at our summer cottage dur
ing the long vacations.
Il had made the basket ball
team and the college dramatic
society. and my chum was sure
that | was going to be chosen
as one of the II prettiest girls of
the graduating class for the
daisy chain
My chum had taken honors In
high 'math, in history and civics,
and yet as she stood looking at
me that morning as | was tying
up my mop of blonde curls pre-
paratory to basket ball practice
| knew in my heart she would
give up gladly her title of 'elev-
crest girl in the class If by sc
doing she might be chosen to
bear that daisy chain.
II was the only blonde in my
class and that perhaps signaled
ME out among the black, brown
and red-haired maids that made

Ola, but | know you are going to

PETIT AND ATKINS
BIRTH OF A NATION

THE Birth of a Nation the
most massive photoplay feature
ever filmed, probably will be ex-
hibited In Tacoma, as a result of
a visit by Commissioner Atkins
and Petit yesterday to theater
in Seattle, where the film is being
shown.
1T is the greatest thing l ever
saw" exclaimed Atkins today.
And I positively cannot see
where 1t arouses any race hatred
or could be prohibited here under
our ordinance.
ePttit agreed with Atkins that
it was a wonderful film"
