A NOVEL OMBINATION
Prof. Pache Has 0ratoriO Class Knit
While Singing.

Prof Joseph Pache has turned his
Oratorio Society into knitting club.
At least, knitting is to go hand in
hand with the rehearsing of classical
music in the future. The Professor
himself donated the first hank of
wool, which is to be made into sweat
err sets to warm the soldiers in the
trenches of France. The proceeds of
the oratorio to be given in January
are to be used for the purchasing of
material.
Mrs. r. Harrison Garrett was to adj
dress the society, but slight indis-
position detained her, and Mrs. NJ. j.
Sioussat was delegated in her place
to address the members, who by un-
animous vote declare themselves will
ing to assist the good cause with all
their ability Much of the work of the
society will go to Dr. Finney's hos
pital, in Baltimore American
Prof Pache has organized a class
here, which meets every Wednesday

odist Episcopal Church, but the in
novation of knitting while singing has

ALL GRADUATES TO
GET COMMISSIONS
Officers Training Camp Men Who
Complete Course To Be AS
signed AT Once
REGULAR ARMY NEEDS 1900
Every Man Who Qualities Win Get Ac-
tive Service With Troops
Or AT School.

All men who qualify IN omcers
training camps will be given commits
sions. and practically all of them will
be assigned Immediately to active
service, either with troops or at sery-
ice schools. Secretary Baker an
nounced yesterday that restudy OF the
situation had disclosed that it would
be unnecessary TO place any consider
able number of the camp graduates on
the inactive list
The announced intention of the De-
partment to assign TO active service
only a small percentage of the men
who will complete their course in the
second series of camps this month
caused a flood of protests from friends
and relatives of the men. The plan
had been to commission many of the
students as reserve officers and allow
them to return to civilian status till
needed.
Places for many of these commits
stoned now are to be provided by Gre
ating divisional organizations among
the regular regiments in the United
States. The remainder will be as
signed either to various staff corps,
where additional officers are needed,
or be attached to various army units
as supernumeraries for further train
ing.
Since it is practically certain that
at least $4,000 National Army men
will be called out by spring to make
up the first million drafted men the
additional officers will be needed at
that time, and officials have decided
that it would be better to keep them
actively employed after their gradua-
ton, rather than to turn them back to
civil life for a few months at most.
Many of the officer candidates left
good civil jobs to attend the schools
which they could not regain for so
short a period
The regular army has now been
very fully expanded, but aside from
the overseas contingent under Gen.
John j Pershing no divisional organ
ization has been provided. The regi-
ments are independent units. No pro-
vision has been made in the regulars
as yet for adding the three lieuten-
ants to each company required under
the new plan of $50 men to a COM
pany unit. They remain at the old
system of a captain and two lieuten-
ants.
1t will require more than 1000 of
the second camp graduates to fill up
the officer personnel of the regular
regiments Another 1000 will be
needed in the organization of divi-
sional units such as trains, trench
mortar batteries, machine gun battal-
ions and divisional troops of various
kinds. 1t will be necessary also to
provide the officer material for corps
and army troops attached to the head
quarters units of larger tactical or
CARNATIONS.

GOVERNOR AT ADMISSION
WILL REVIEW SOLDIERS
With Wife and Children Executive Win
Be Cuest of JUDGE Wilson

Governor Harrington and his family,
accompanied by Adiutant General
Warfield, reached Admission at 7.15 last
night on a train that had been delay

be General Gathers guest at Fifty
Eighth Brigade Headquarters.
Waiting at the station TO meet the
party from Maryland were Brig Gen.
w. C. Rafferty,. temporary commander
Of the Twenty ninth Division, General
Gather, Lieutenant Harrington and
his wife. General Rafferty, announced
that on Thursday morning review of
the entire division would be held for
the Governor of Maryland. This will
be the first review since the division
was organized Nearly $4,000 men
will be in the column that passes the
reviewing point. If Governor Walter
E. Edge, of New Jersey, reaches camp
before Governor Harrington goes
home, both will be entertained at re-
ception. II is likely that this will be
arranged, for Governor Harrington in
tends staying about week and Gov
ernor Edge is expected Saturday
Plans for the reception are being
handled by the Admission Chamber of
Commerce. The Governor probably
will spent most of his time with his
SON Mrs Harrington and the two
children expect to remain after the

ably for a long visit.

AMERICAN GENIUS
HAS DISCOVERED DEVICE
To Locate u Boats-Secretary Daniels
Says American Devices Are
Solving Problem.

Important progress has been made
in the problem of locating submarines,
after which their destruction is a
comparatively simple matter, Secre-
tary Daniels said in statement dis
cussing the 10000 separate sugges-
tions. plans or models of devices sub
mitted to the naval consulting board
since the United States entered the
war against Germany. One of these
plans is that of an Annapolis man.
THE idea that the submarine will
be overcome by a miraculous inyen-
ton is not now seriously considered"
the Secretary said "The more init
mate knowledge the civilian obtains
on this subject the more convinced he
is that the submarine can be con-
quered by persistently hunting him
down by the weapon of which he is
most afraid. This is the armed service
boat. equipped with all the latest
scientific devices and typified in the
modern torpedo-boat destroyer. For
eign naval authorities have frankly
stated their admiration of the degree
of perfection of American designs.
In regard TO the protection of ships
against torpedo attacks the undeni-
able evidence of recent months of sub
marine activity has demonstrated that
the immunity OF a vessel depends
very largely on its speed and maneu-
vering ability There is possibility
that some artificial means of protect
ing cargo-carrying vessels may be
found practicable In no other field
have so many suggestions or so many
duplicate inventions been presented

Announcement was made at Camp
Meade yesterday that steps will be-
taken at once TO weed out all men who

and discharge them from military
service of the United States.
This action was taken after a long

these countries. Just how many
there are at Camp Meade could mo-.
be determined. but it is said that The
number is considerable. The same nc.
ton will be taken at other canton
ments.
The order, however, does not AFFECT
naturalized foreigners, but even with
these care is being taken in making
assignments for service. 1t is assured
that no unnaturalized man who has
the slightest shade of enemy sympa.

MT. ST. MARY'S
Printing For St. Johns Game Satur-
day.

Mt. st. Mary's football squad at
Emmittsburg got under way in good
shape yesterday in preparation for
her game with st. Johns here on
Saturday. Due to the hard game with
Gettysburg last Saturday Coach
Thompson gave the boys the lightest
kind of a signal drill Monday, ending
with a general talk on formations and
defensive work. Although not yet in
the win column the Mt. ST. Mary's
boys have been playing out of their
class, which is due to the change of
schedule. This is a trying handicap
inasmuch as the Mount had to start
in with an entire green team. So far
the boys have come out of all the bat
ties in good shape.
Much interest is being manifested in
the outcome of the game with st.
Johns, and it is safe to say that the
Cadets will have no easy time with
the Mountaineers. Saul improving
daily in his punting and the work of
Chapman, Daniels and Durkin in the
backfield has added new life to the
rooters for the remaining games of
the season.
