Good News for Student Officers Train
ing at Fort Smelling.

Fort Sheridan, Ill, June 2S.-Na-
tional guardsmen in training here for
officers commission, will receive the
same pay as the other students. The
.480 guardsmen received the good news
that they would get 500 a month in
an order from Washington yesterday.
When the other men were paid a
short time ago the militiamen were
told that their status had not been
determined by the war department. so
there would be no envelopes for them
until it was.
This worked a distinct hardship on
some for they had come to camp with
just enough money to last till the first
pay day.
1t was further stated that the men
would receive their money with the
least possible delay. After six weeks
training several of the men have de-
cided that they will never make effl-
