MARS FIRST AID TO CUPID
Couple Parted by Parents Are Re-
united in Marriage When Man
Becomes Officer.

Gates Mills, O.-The whole world
loves a fighter-not lover. That's the
way the adage goes now. Second Lieut..
Charles s. Bailey of the Ohio Field ar
tillery and Addie Schmunk, eighteen,
daughter of Robert J. Schmunk, motor
car magnate, have found 1t out.
Two years ago the young folks, very
much in love with each other, defied
stern parents and were married in the
office Of a justice of the peace. The
parents, however, were not to be out
done. They had the marriage annulled
and broke a couple of hearts for the
time being.
But since that time Bailey has been
graduated from Ohio university and
has been made an officer in the artil-
lery and he's going away to France,
and that changes things. They have
been married again. The first affair
was rather lonely and only two wit
nesses besides the contracting parties
were present. The second event was
one of the social events Of the season
in this little city.

new soldier can familiarize himself
with the rifle when he has a rifle in
hand, but he may otherwise school
himself in the squad or company move
ments which accompany or are predt-
Gated upon the use of the rife, for he
can carry through the squad or COM
pany movements with broomstick.
For various reasons, depending upon
the immediate situation, it may be nee
essary for the squad to increase or d.
minish the interval at which the men
are deployed. For instance, the space
to be covered may be wider or mar
rover than the ten PAGES which the
normal interval would give for the
squad front, or, The fire of the enemy
may at this point be so shot" that, in
order to advance against it, the
chances Of casualties must be reduced
by widening the space between the
men.
If the latter be the case, or if, as
previously stated, it is desirable to
cover a wider front, instead of the
hS Shll MAlNS%1
(when the men deploy at half-pace in
tervals), the command may be, GAS
skirmishers, at two PAGES, MARCH !"
This would mean that, instead of the
half-pace, or Is inches, twice the full
pace, or 60 inches, would intervene be-
tween each two men. This would ex-
tend the squad front over distance Of
approximately 20 PAGES, or 81 feet, and
thus increasing the front of, or the ter
ritory covered by, the squad, reduce
materially the chance Of each man be-
ing hit.
1t is essential for the new soldier to
pay the closest heed to exteRded-order
drill, for it symbolizes real fighting.
He must be so grounded in the details
Of it that he will execute them auto
matically when in action, for, once I'M
der fire, he will have plenty of things
to think about besides how he is to-
reach the designated point at the des-
ignated time. The use of his rifle will
require his full and active attention.

Minnesota State Fair
Food Training Camp
MUCH HONEY WASTED
John Jager-Bee Expert, Tells Of
Chance for Conservation.
September 3 TO g

John jaeger, superintendent of the
Bee and Honey exhibit of the Mime
sofa State Fair, is authority for the
statement that in Minnesota alone
there is wasted annually about ST. 9,O00,-
600 in honey which is allowed to go
untaken and that there is, therefore,
splendid opportunity for work along
the food conservation idea.
If this situation is true in Minnesota,
it is also true in other Northwestern
states and when the figures are COM
piled an amazing amount of the purest
food Observation-Disclosures own food
is found to be absolutely wasted.
Mr.. jaeger explains that the reason
for this tremendous waste is that there
are altogether too few bee keepers and
he recently predicted that the govern
ment will some day provided apiaries
for wounded and crippled soldiers re-
turned from the European battlefields,
who will be unable to do work of any
other kind.
ize the fairs of the country as food
training camps as means of spread
ing the doctrine of production and con-
servation of food and in Washington
authorities of the government, work.
ing in cooperation with representa-
tives Of the fairs, are busy preparing
exhibits and demonstrations to show
the people how best they can do their
individual "bits" to make the move
ment success.
Mr.. lager will have charge of the
bee and honey exhibit at the state fair
and recently he stated that this years
show will be far superior to those Of
recent years and that visitors to his
department will be told of the neces-
sity for more bee keepers and of the
attractiveness of the business from a
money making point of view.
Honey is one of natures purest
foods" declared Mr.. jaeger recently,
land it is shame to see so much Of
it actually go to waste merely because
there are not enough bee keepers to
take care of it. There is fine chance
for attention by those who are work
ing for the conservation of food and
look for added interest in the bee bust
ness, which, to my notion, is the most
interesting and paying business one
can enter.
There is so much scientific research
work connected with bee keeping" he
concluded, that even professional men
are beginning to desert their profess
siOnS and go into the business of rails
ing bees.'

INTEREST is GENERAL
People in All Glasses Join Food Con.
servation Move.


That the food conservation move
ment has taken on a national aspect
and that there is general interest be-
ing manifested in it is evident from
the reports being published in newspa-
pers throughout the country.
The Twin Cities and the surround
ing territory are deeply interested and
people in all walks of life have already
demonstrated that they are ready and
willing to do their bits to help the
work along.
Women in the humblest homes are do
ing all they can to save food and the
same may be said of those of the
wealthy classes. Prominent people in
every line of activity have been enlist
ed in the cause and during the coming
year there should be noticeable results
of the work.
So widespread is the interest in the
movement that it is predicted the ex-
hibits and demonstrations at the vari-
our fairs which will be turned into
food training camps will be given more
attention than any of the other
features.

War conditions have caused most
women to study to do their own house
work in the most economical and prac-
tical way, is the opinion of a well
known member of a women's club.
Through the conservation movement
to be carried on by the food training
camps at the various state fairs the
most efficient methods of conserving
food and of doing homework are to
be explained and demonstrated by gov
eminent experts.
This is the first year the govern
ment has given it's official recognition
to the fairs and it is predicted both
the fairs and the government will
benefit by it.

Consider the squad as one unit Of a

ployed for the sire attack" If it is i'm
practicable for the company to adj
vance as a whole against the enemy's
lines, it may advance in rushes. This
Is done either by platoons or by squad.
The new line to be occupied is indi-
Gated by the platoon leader or the cap
tain of the company, who gives the
command "By squad, from the right
(left) RUSH, This means that the
squad on the extreme right of the
company is to move, or rush, to the
new line first.
The men of the squad, who may be
lying fiat on the ground, or in kneel-
ing position, gather themselves in read
mess to spring forward. The corporal,
at the word "RUSHw cries ''Follow
mel" and, running at top speed, and
bent over to offer as small a target
as possible to the enemy, leads the
squad to the new line. Here the men
drop to the prone position at the cor

vertically from the shoulder, and at
his command reopen fire. Unless the
platoon or company commander has
designated the distance to be covered
in the rush, the corporal of the squad
selects the new line.
After the first squad has taken up
the new line, the other squads fol
