THE OPEN COLUMN

Editor the Missourian: Some inter
ested persons may be misinformed as
to the present rate of pay for en-
listed men of the National Guard
Several inquiries have been made to
this effect and since the reorganiza-
tion of the militia last year no man
can speak with authority by saying
1T used to be this way or that.
Briefly speaking, the pay of every
enlisted man Commissioned officers
are not enlisted mem has been in
creased SIS a month, which means
$50 now for the private, $36 for the
corporal. $45 for the sergeants and
$50 for first sergeants. 1t is true
that IL this were all the compensation
ne received he might starve at pres
ent prices but since all his uniforms,

hospital treatment in case of sick
ness, are all furnished his pay is
practically net saving If he wishes.
As to the clothing allowance, the
Government allows about $50 for
clothing for the first six monhs serv-
ice which is called the initial allow
ance; after that, few cents each day
which accumulates to the credit of
the soldier. At the time of discharge
or muster out of federal service, the
soldier is paid in cash the net
amount from his allowance initial
and daily deducting the price of the
clothing he has received. In this
manner practically every soldier re-
ceives lump sum varying in accord
ance with care for his dress.
Another item: That of pay wh:;e
not in active service. The militia is
paid on the basis of forty-eight drills
per year and the men receive one
fourth pay as the same rank in the
regular army. This payment is made
at the end of the
months of June and December. 1t
will require only a few figures to see
that by attending drill, a private
will get between $1.50 and So. Very
few men get paid a dollar an hour in
civil life.

LISTEN! UNCLE SAM CALLS
Army Week is on.

A nationwide drive of one week tC
recruit 10000 men to bring the regu.
lar army up to its authorized wal
strength of 100000 men has begun
This is the first step in the war Or
ganization of the regular American
army
The President calls upon unmarried
men between the ages of IS and 40
years who have no dependents and
who are not engaged in pursuits wit
ally necessary to the prosecution of the
war;" to join the army. Boys under
21 won the Civil War, not merely by
their number, but by their dashing
heroism and dogged tenacity. Con-
gress did not see fit to make military
service legal duty of anyone who
had not reached the voting age, but
the law permits young men to volun-
teer.
Men who have registered for draft
are privileged to join the regular army
at this time. Men over 80 years need
not feel that because they are not
within the ages of draft that they
should not do their part, but should
take this opportunity to be of early
service to their country: /
The women and children can also
help by persuasion with the knowledge
that they are doing something to aid
America.
We did our part in the Liberty Loan
Bond and Red Cross campaigns. Let's
also do our share towards raising the
10000 men for the army.

DANGER IN FALSE ECONOMY

WISE than extravaganza is a false
idea of economy. If the people be-
come hysterical over the matter OF
conservation of food, the ends aimed
at will surely meet with defeat.
We should bear in mind, provided
our great waste and extravaganza is
eliminated, there will be plenty of
food in the country to supply the ne
cessities Of every person.
The people will not have to deny
themselves the necessities of life. On
the contrary, they should strive to
keep themselves in the best of physi-
cal condition. Eat plenty in order that
you may be able to do your share of
the great work that is before us.
Napoleon wisely said IAN army
travels on its stomach" And it is
equally true that we work on our
stomachs. A hungry man or wom-
an is incompetent for any task.
The sensible economy and true pa
triotism is for each to exert himself
to keep the business of the country
normal. Buy and sell, earn and spend,
for only by such a course can business
continue as usual. Be economical and
prudent, but don't be a miser.

DEER AND RABBIT
MAKING TROUBLE
DR.. Kalbfus Says There Should
Be Some Temporary
Changes

Female deer have increased so rap
idly that plan of restoring the right
to shoot them for a period to be de-
termined upon may be submitted to
the legislature by the State Game COM
mission and it may also urge that the
rabbit hunting season should be two
months because of the danger of the
"cottontails' becoming ga menace to
agriculture. The reports of the Game
commission and of DR.. Joseph Kalb-
fus, the secretary. were submitted to
the governor to-day and go eXhaus-
lively into the benefits which have
accrued to the State through operation
of the hunters license law, which has
made money available for propagation
and protection and stimulated interest
in hunting which trains men and
youths to the woods and to the use
of firearms, while affording splendid
sport.
