CAN JOIN NAVY NOW
Men Accepted Will Be Called When
They Are Needed.

It seems that there has been some
misunderstanding concerning enlist
ment in the navy by registered men.
When asked concerning this point this
morning, Shipfitter Hierholtzer, in
charge of the local navy recruiting Of
flee, said that registered men may en-
list in the navy under the present
orders, if they are so far down in
the draft list that the local board can
conceive of no possibility of their be-
ing drawn in the next quota
Orders were received by Hierholtzer
this morning to the effect that men
may be enlisted in the navy at this
time, but they will be allowed to re-
main at home for an indefinite period
or until the Great Lakes Naval Train
ing station is cleared sufficiently of
its present corps of student jackies
to care for them. The text of the
order said to send no more men to
the Great Lakes station until further
orders. AS was said before, this order
does not prohibit enlistment in the
navy at this time.

CHRISTMAS LEAVES
Certain Soldiers at Funston May Have
Christmas Holiday.

Camp Funston, Dec. 1S.-It is the
congestion of the railroads rather
than any one of the thousands OF other
reasons, that have been concocted by
Dame Rumor that will prevent the
10 per cent of the men from the seth
Division from spending their time at
home during the Christmas holidays
The ruling came out from Wash
ington and printed in newspapers
broadcast required all soldiers to re-
frain from riding trains during the
Christmas rush. 1t seems that Wash
ington officials realized that the rail-
roads could not take care of the usual
crowds of civilians plus the soldiers
that should be allowed to return home
to visit with their relatives for Christ
mas and as there is no way to stop
the civilian, the soldier, who is serv-
ing him, must bear the hardship. I'm
der the arrangements made by the
Headquarters of the seth Division,
ten per cent of the men were to be
allowed to return home during each
of the holiday seasons, Thanksgiving,
Christmas and New Years. The men
who were to be allowed to go were
picked for the training they had mas
tered, the general work they had ac-
complished and the merits they had
earned since they came to camp. The
Thanksgiving holidays were enjoyed
by the first ten per cent, but now
comes the order to discourage men
congestion.
The Division Headquarters are not
certain as to the arrangements that
will be made for the men who have
planned on making a visit home. They
will likely have an opportunity to
reap the harvest of their hard-earned
leave. At any rate it will be no fault
of the men in charge here if some
do not go.
1t was thought that only the men
who lived within trolley distance
of the camps would be allowed to go
home; however, this is not entirely
correct Men who have made ar
engagements to go home by machines
can get away, providing they are
among the ten per cent that are to
be allowed to leave. A man who
! lives in Kansas city or any other town
nearby will not be prevented from re-
turning home, providing he can fill
the requirements of the ones who will
be allowed leaves
