LAFAYETTE INDUSTRIAL

Lafayette, La, Aug. 20, 1917.
With the opening Of the coming
session of the Southwestern Lou
islana Industrial Institute Sept
ember 19, the department of in
struction in military science and
tactics will be resumed under the
command of Prof. j. G. Lee, .Jr., a
graduate of the Louisiana State
University, who was Captain in
the Corps of Cadets in that insti-
tuition, and is at present teacher
in the Institute in the department
of agriculture. Military drill and
discipline have not been taught
in the Institute since the session
of 1909-'10, when Major C. c.
McCrory, now Adjutant General
of the State National Guard, re.
tired from his position as Com
mandont here to take charge Of
his planting interests in East Ba-
ton Route parish. But a large
number of the students of the In
stitute started voluntary bat

based on actual experience with
the first increment and some
amendments in the law may be
thought desirable by Congress.
1t is possible that some provi-
sion will be made whereby all the
sons of one family will not be
taken.
A new definition of the status
of married men may be one of the
things acted upon. President
Wilson s letter to Senator Weeks
is taken by many to indicate a
feeling that more liberal policy
may be found desirable.
At present, under regulations, a
condition of actual dependency
must be established to obtain ex-
emption. The condition of mar
riage in itself is not considered.
Another matter to be worked out
is the status of aliens.
Still another is the status of men
who have passed beyond draft
age since being drafted, and that
of those who have become of draft
age in the meantime.

PROVOST MARSHAL SAYS NO
SECON CALL CONSIDERED
NOW.

I Washington, Aug. PA full
statistical report on the opera
Itions Of the draft law will be pre-
|pared by the provost marshal
general s Office as soon as the moo
ilization of the first increment of
687, 900 men of the national army
has been completed some time
early in October.
Pending the preparation of the
report and careful analysis Of the
conditions it discloses, no steps
toward calling a second incre-
ment to the colors will be taken.
General Crowder said today
that the call for the second in
crement never had been consid-
cred at any conference at which
he was present. and that he had
no indication that it had been
taken up in any way by Presl-
dent Wilson or Secretary Baker.
The first increment will fill all
Of the training areas-16 national
guard camps and 16 national army
canto2ments-to capacity and
.her( will be a surplus of men
besides those assigned to the reg
ular sarmy. The regulars are
now $4,000 above full authorized
war strength by voluntary enlist
ment and the national guard is i'll
similar situation.
ALI Sons Of One
Family Not Taken.
The training facilities\ already
are taxed to make ready for the
front men now available. and it
is regarded as very unlikely that
organization Of an additional
SOC, 900 men Of the national army
can begin until early spring of
1918. Neither quarters nor per-
sonnel to train the force will be
available before that time.
Inequalities Of an unavoidable
nature will be shown in the sta
tistical report. There probably
win be some amended regulations,

Over thirty-fve hundred eli

sued by the Second Section of the
Eighth Naval District, but many
hundreds Of boats in the District
have not yet been licensed.
The patrol boats in the outer
waters are serving notice on un-
licensed boats that they must
provide themselves with the nee
essary license, and an inland
water patrol will soon be estab-
lished to look after boats navi-
eating inland waters.
Boat owners are advised to
make immediate application to
the Licensing Office, 215 Godchaux
Building, New Orleans. La.
Application cards may be had
upon request and, when properly
filed out. give all the information
necessary for the issuance Of Ii
censes.
No fee of any kind is charged.
This license from the Navy De-
partment is in addition to licenses
by any Department of
the Government, and all boats
propelled by said or machinery
must be provided with one. The
size Of boats is no factor, and the
necessity for licenses is directed
by the fact that the boat is pro-
PEELED by sail or machinery.

CARTOONIST'S RISE TO FAME
Louis Raemekers Probably the Best
Known of Artists Who Teach
With the Pen.

Hidden away in an obscure studio
in London suburb, with price upon
his head (offered by Germany Louis
Raemekers has made the whole world
shudder with his cartoons of the great
war.
A year and half ago he was an un-
known Dutch landscape artist. To-
day he is acclaimed the greatest mas
ter Of pen and pencil Of the age; he
has been feted by royalty, sought by
German spies and charged with endan-
gering Dutch neutrality. BY the usu-
ally reserved and frequently skeptfcal
Englishman he is frankly idoliZed !;
and all because he has pictured Ger
man "kulture" and it's dire effects.
His cartoons are now the rage Of
the hour in New York, where an exhib-
1t Of originals Is being given for the
benefit Of the French Red Cross.
Louis Raemekers was born In Hol-
land Of Dutch father and a German
mother. When quite young he studied
painting and drawing in Holland and
he had established local reputation
as landscape and portrait painter.
Some years ago he married Dutch
woman, and it is now said by those
who know him that he has no utter
est outside his home, which Includes
three ruddy children, except to go on
with his work. The strong religious
tendency which so often characterizes
his work has brought forth the Ques-
ton of what church the artist attends
His reply Is that he belongs to none,
but was brought up Catholic and his
wife a Protestant, and the differences
which in later life severed both from
their early teaching caused them to
meet on common ground.
