A strong sentiment prevails in mill
tary circles that Col George A. Dodd,
commanding the flying cavalry brigade
in pursuit of Villa and his band,
should be promoted to the grade of
brigadier general before his statutory
retirement for age, July 26. in recog-
milton of his achievement in surpris-
ing and scattering the Villista camp at
Guerrero. after seventeen hours of hard
riding in the toughest kind of country.
If the new arIy bill is enacted in
it's present shape, vacancies will be
provided in the grade of brigadier gen.
eral. one of which could be given to
Col Dodd, 1t is contended. as partial
reward for his brilliant exploits in
Mexico. That bill, however. will not
become effective until July l next, only
twenty-six days before Col. Dodd will
have to be retired by operation of law
on account of age
Regular Vacancy in View.
Regardless of the provisions of the
new army law, vacancy will regular
ly occur in the list of brigadier gen.
erals to which Col. Dodd might. be ap-
pointed before his retirement. That
will result from the statutory retire
ment of Brig. Gen. John P. Wiser,
commanding the Hawaiian Department,
which occurs July 10 next, but seven
days before Col. Dodd reaches the re-
firing age. Two other brigadier gen
erals retire this year, Gen. NJ. NJ. Ma
comb October ~, and Gen. Robert K.
Evans November 10, but those va
cancies come too late to be of any
benefit to Col. Dodd.

Miss Kahl's Essay Topic.

The prize-winning essay is on the sub
Ject, THE Harm of a Moderate Use of
Alcohol" 1t reads:
TO be efficient is the cry every
where. To be able to do ones task
with the least amount of efort-to do
more and better work-that is the
goal for which We should strive. And
to be efficient We must be healthy.
Whether we are students desiring to
learn the operations of algebra or
out in the world trying to achieve
fame, the possession of health is in
valuable. And TO be healthy we must
avoid bad habits. whether they quick
ly poison us or only slowly injure our
vital organs. 1t is to the latter class
that the moderate use of alcohol be-
longs.
The common belief that moderate
quantity of alcohol can be really help
ful is absolutely wrong. Prof. krae-
pelin of Heidelberg University under
took long series of experiments with
the idea of proving that a little alco-
hol. such as his countrymen are SO
fond of using in the form of beer, en-
abled a man to do better work. And
yet before his task was completed
he had proved the opposite. He show
ed that the taking Of just one glass of
beer worked harm to the brain and the
nervous system.

Result of Experiments.

The professor found that men who
could read certain letters thirty feet
away had to draw ten feet nearer to
repeat their reading after taking the
small amount of alcohol contained in
one glass of beer. In another expert
ment a flag was suddenly raised from
behind a screen, and man had to press
a button Of the same color as the flag.
1t took a certain time for the person
to see the flag, distinguish it's color
and push the right button. The result
was that in every trial the man was
slower in doing the work after drink
ing a small glass of wine.
Does it require much imagination to
realize what this means? If for such
a simple task as noting color and
pressing a button a longer time was
required, how much slower, if at all
possible, must the reasoning about a
difficult problem or the accomplish
ment of a hard task be- when a person
has taken the innocent-looking glass of
beer?
when we add to these bad effects the
serious charges that modern medicine is
bringing forth against alcohol-its ir-
ritant action on the delicate Innings of
the stomach. liver and kidneys; the har-
dening of the arteries, the weakening
of the heart muscles, the impairment of
the digestive fluids-the detriment 1t
causes to our health and efficiency is
plainly seen

Feeling Is Deceptive.

"Ah. but people say that they actual
lily feel better after taking a little
liquor. No one denies this feeling Of
satisfaction, but it is a deception, new
ertheless, as far as the real ability to
do better work is concerned.
"If parents will reflect before allow
ing their children to use alcohol in any
form, and if young people, who have
a lifetime before them, will consider
the loss in physical and mental power
resulting from even a moderate indul-
gence in alcoholic beverages, the crav-
ing for drink will be formed less often.
And when no alcohol at all is used,
with clearer brain and healthier body,
man will be ready to attain greater
heights of efficiency and progress.
Strong manhood, splendid woman
hood. is the ideal that should at all
times be before u.s."

 These it is believed may have been made by the vehicle which carried away the injured leader
 Ever since they defeated the Villa command. at San Geronimo Ranch. with heavy loss last We'd nesday, the American cavalrymen have searched ceaselessly for the bandit leader. but up to late today no definite information concern ing the whereabout had reached this camp.
 Villa has disappeared in a way which, considering the relentless ness of the American pursuit, seems mysterious. The American troops have not encountered any natives who will even admit that they have seen Rancho" Villa.
 Every gorge, arroyo, canyon, trail and watering place in the mountainous passes in this vii cinity is being watched by Ameri- can air scouts or searched by cav alrymen in the hope of discov- ering the bandits lair. The avia- tors also are keeping the column informed as to the movements of the scattered remnapts of the band. Hope is expressed that one of these at least. may attempt to rejoin their chief and thus lead the American forces to his hid ing place.
