made necessary, viii give 10 the Ger
mans all the difference between
moderate success and failure. With
Verdun In her grip, Germany can
rest on the Liege-Verdun line, ad

the peace conference would be with
the Allies.

In the army, the opportunities there
are TO see the world and educate
! himself, and so on.
Our problem now is TO enlist the
ordinary number Of men, and In ad-
dition, approximately $4,000 addi-
tional men in the shortest space In
which 1t can be done. Accordingly,
We have simply enlarged our sdvsr-
tising facilities"
The day before congress author
ized the army to be enlisted up to
full war strength, Col March's ser
vice was maintaining 81 recruiting
stations In the principal cities OF
the United States. The day the joint
resolution passed orders went out
TO the recruiting officers to open ITO
new stations, making 224.
I'VE have practically the pick or
the army when II comes to selecting
men for recruiting service said
Col. March. This service requires
men of considerable ability and
training. Then. too. we must have
men who know what the army life
is so they can explain II to a pros
pective recruit We select the best
men In the service for recruiting
duty"
The opening OF new recruiting
station is not matter OF few min
utes' work. II means going into
town. selecting suitable rooms and
putting ia the necessary apparatus
and furniture
Advertising matter is sent from
the stations. Names OF men inter-
ested are obtained, and these are fol
lowed up by letter. personal visit,
additional information. etc, exactly
as the advertising manager OF a big
business follows up prospect
The ad1utant general corresponds

Col. March is the advertising man
ager," the recruiting officers are his
district agents." and the non-com-
miasioned officers and privates OF
the service are the statesmen"
