Problems of National Guard.

The report goes at some length into
the odd situation which was presented
when the National Guard was sum-
moned to border duty. Reorganization
of the force under the national defense
act was in progress. but not completed,
at the time. Mr.. Baker says. and many
complex problems had to he solved
''The confusions and difficulties at
tending the mobiliZa tion, he cont1n-
ues. will seem insignificant in COM
parison with its success and with the
splendid spirit with which men and
officers of the National Guard re-
sponded.
The Secretary points out that the
duty to which the state troops We're
called was the most trying a soldier
could be required to perform, lacking
the movement and enthusiasm of active
military operations yet presenting all
the privationS of a soldiers life.
1T is not strange that some restless
ness and complaint have been heard
both from an occasional member of one
of the guard forces and from their
friends at home,' he said. These COM
plants, however, have been minor and
infrequent- The spirit of the regiments
has been high, their service cheerful,
and their appreciation both of their
opportunity for public service and of
the value of the training received by
them has been evidenced from all quar-
terS"
The report discusses at length what
was accomplished by the War Depart
ment through cooperation with the
American Railway Association in the
rapid transportation of troops and sup
plies TO the Mexican border. Declaring
the movement was carried out without
any serious confusion or delay, Secre-
tary Baker adds:
1T seems to me just to claim for the
War Department and for the cooper
ating railroads that they managed the
task. although Of unusual difficulty
and size. with great skill and most

DEFENSE AGAINST ALL
ENEMIES Is DEMANDED
BY AMERICAN PEOPLE
| LANSING MAN is TELLING HOW
MOST WELCOME CHANGE
HAS COME OVER HIM.

B. S. Carlton, of i08 S. Chestnut
Street, Lansing, tells story which
seems almost too good to be true. Mr..
Carlton is messenger in the Capitol
at Lansing and is well known and has a
host of friends. This is what he says
"A friend of mine who used Tanlac
gave his testimonial. read it in the
paper and it proved the means of
bringing about the first relief from
Stomach trouble.
IL suffered especially" continued Mr..
Carlton, "from pains in my stomach
and bowels and from nervousness. My
trouble was of such long standing that
it had become chronic. | could not
eat without being distressed afterwards
and it was almost impossible for me to
sleep nights. | was run down and
weakened. | had no appetite to speak
of and just had to force myself to go to
the table sometimes.
GAS said. l read this testimonial
given by my friend and / knew that he
would not endorse Tanlac unless he
knew the medicine. Therefore when |
took Tanlac was pretty sure it would
help me if anything would. There is
not much more to tell except that from
the very start | improved under the
Tanlac treatment and today am again
enjoying good health and feel fine all
the time. / am glad to recommend
Tanlac to anyone suffering from
stomach and bowel troubles. -
