STUDIED LAW.
 WHILlE SOLDIER
Has Had Service Extending Over Past Forty Years, Particularly in Legal Department of Army and Has
 Marked Paths of Independence.

Washington, July 16.-Not very re- assuring to the slackers and others who may desire to escape military service aging the draft is ''from Missouri" :" both figuratively and in reality. He is Brig Gen. Enoch H. Crowder, judge advocate general and provost marshal general of the army. General Crowde1 was born and raised in Mis- souri and still calls Kansas City his home. He is regarded as the fore most law authority in the army, first by reason of his position as judge ad- vocate general, and second because of the way in which he has filled the re- sponsible place, not perfunctorily or nominally, but with distinction
 Few men in the service of the na- t;on have had more difficult duties to perform than those that have fallen to the lot of General Crowder since war was declared with Germany. With virtually no precedent to guide him he he has been called upon to formulate and put into operation the scheme of registration and drafting. Though var ious wheels and cogs are the result of suggestions from different officials and departments of the feedral govern ment it is Crowder who has assembled the details and put the machinery into smooth running order It was he who decided upon the plan of putting the registration and draft into the hands of civilians and of making the country the unit for the registration. He de- vised the registration cards and di- INptnI thoir .Nt jet, ,,,,,,,tin,, D~I And now it is Crowder who is in charge of the great task of selecting the men who are to comprise the first great national army.
 Fcrty Years Soldier.
 It is jus5 40 years since General Crowder began his military career as a student at West Point. Soon after his graduation in 1881 he went with his regiment to Fort Brown, Texas, and being of studious disposition began the reading of law in the of flee of a Brownsville attorney, and in 1895 he completed his legal education at the University of Michigan. The war department soon recognized the value of his legal learning and he was appointed to the judge advocate gen erals department with the rank of major.
 General Crowder went to the Philip pines in 1898 with tho first American expedition, serving as judge. advocate of the department of the Pacific, the Eighth Army corps and the division of the Philippines. and was also legal ad- visor and secretary to the military governor.
 In bringing about governmental re- forms in the Philippines he distin-, guished himself and upon his return to the United States he was placed upon the general staff. He was prolni- rently idantified with the organiza- ton of the general staff corps, and as
