Red blooded men will be accepted
as VOLUNTEERED by L. S. army now.
Slackers come later. Which are you?'
This is the wording on a poster in
the postottice calling for volunteers
ior the army This seems to US to be
unfortunately worded Surely the
authorities do not mean by this that
all those who do not volunteer are TO
be termed slackers. Especially when
the authorities were so bent on pass
ing a selective draft measure. And
certainly it could not be meant that
those who are drawn in the selective
draft are slackers. Sorry We saw it.
The volunteer call was failure, but

somehow I can't get rid of the idea
that we as members Of the associa-

when it is held in resort hotel
where all the members live at the

make the members have a good time.

The trip down the bay On FRIDAY
to the government training station
was very interesting trip. BY per-
mission of Secretary Daniels our par
tv was permitted to 'and and go
through the grounds. There are now
about 5000 boys there in training
the flower of our young manhood. 1t
makes me just little sad to view
these training stations. Somehow
can't help having feeling that 1t IS
terrible thing to take our best man
hood and our best resources to hgnt
war with, and I have feeling tnat
our civilization is still failure when
it has to be maintained by the sword.
These boys are from all over the
United States and are getting ready
to go abroad to engage in the war.
The wooden barracks are being built
with all the conveniences and COM
forts that are possible in such a place.
They have the sewer and the BATHS

this is but the development OF the

nature Admiral Beatty said that
the marines were now the best arm
of the service And they are line
