How to Send Packages to Soldiers.
Persons who send parcels to mem
bers of the United States Expedi-
tionary forces in Europe should ad-
dress them in the following manner:
First, name of addressee; second,
official designation of unit to which
addressee belongs; third, the words,
american ,Expeditionary Forces"
Under no circumstances should
the location or station of a military
organization be included in the ad-
dress. The senders own name and
address should be written in the
upper left-hand corner of the ad-
dress side of the article to be sent.
Of course, all packages sent to mem
bers of the expeditionary forces must
be securely packed and wrapped,
plainly directed according to the
directions given above and the post
age properly prepaid. Parcels must
not exceed 20 pounds in weight and
are subject to domestic classification
and rates of postage.

Rapid In the U. s. Navy.

A great many of the previous
limitations on promotions in the,
United States Navy have been re-
moved since the declaration of war,
and young men going into the servi e
row set the advantages thus offered
Recruits are now held in the train
ing stations only long enough to
gain sufficient knowledge of their
duties to enable them to be placed
on board the ships in the feet. Many
of those who enlisted since war was
declared are now second and third
class petty officers on the large
battleships.
The Navy is still IN need OF
musicians, and the recruiting author
tiles at Baltimore are anxious to lay
the advantages of this rating before
the young musicians of the State.
The pay is good, the surroundings
are attractive and the opportunities
for travel are unexcelled.
Applicants need only have a pre-
liminary knowledge of band music,
being sent to the Musicians School
to complete their course of. studies.
There is also need for machinists
in the Navy, and young men going
into the service in this rating have
unlimited opportunities ahead of
them.
Full particulars of Navy enlist
ments can be obtained from the near
est postmaster; directly from the
Navy Recruiting Station, Calvert &
Lexington Streets, Baltimore, or
from the Navy Recruiting Sub
stations at Cumberland and Hagers-
town.

Maryland Called On To Furnish
1904 Men.

The Regular Army of the United
States needs 5,94S men up. to and
including August 4 in order to round
out it's maximum war strength. The
State of Maryland in order to furnish
the number of men for the Regular
Army, has been called upon by the
National Government to furnish
1904.
From the small number of men
still needed, it can be readily seen
that the quotas of the states will
soon be filed. OF the twenty-one
states which have already furnished
the men required by their quota, all
are still continuing to furnish men
for the Regular Army of the United
States. This means that although
the proper number of men may be
furnished, they will not necessarily
be furnished in the proportionate
number that each state was assigned.
If Maryland does not get the 1,004
men, mentioned above, very soon
that number will be supplied, but
will not be supplied by Maryland.
Therefore, all Marylanders who
have the interests of their state at
heart and are state patriots as well
as National patriots should at once
cooperate to the limit Of their abili-
ties in assisting all Regular Army
Recruiting officers in obtaining the
quota assigned to Maryland.
