have been made to expand immedi-
ately the cooperative extension work
of the United States department of

les will be required in this service,
The appointments are to be made on
the recommendation of the director

and 500 women agents are at presen:
employed. The plans formulated con-
template the extension of the men

is need for the work and the placing
of an additional agent in some of the
larger counties already organized.
They also contemplate a considerable
increase in the number of women
agents engaged in extension activities.
The number to be employed will de-
pend upon the number of trained
men and women available. Proved
ability in leadership as we'll as tech
nical training Will be required.

duct of the extension work Of the

on by women agents who will work
in cooperation with the existing or
ganizations of women.

Still ASK RECRUITS
FOR REGULAR ARMY
Stations Busy in District. Maryland
and Delaware for Men.

Volunteer enlistments in the army
have not ceased. In fact. Maryland.
Delware and the District of Columbia
is being secured for volunteers for the
regular army and the National Guard.
An August 5 recruiting for the
various organization of the National
Guard in Maryland. Delaware and the
District of Columbia was placed under
the charge OF Capt. II. J. Mckenney
who Is the regular army recruiting
officer for the district mentioned.
Officers and enlisted men of the Ma
tional Guard are now acting in con-
junction with the regular army re-
cruiting station.
So long as National Guard organiza-
tions are at their home stations when
applicants are received at the regular
army recruiting station and express
a desire for any particular organiza-
ton OF the National Guard IL that
organization is not filed when the ap-
plicant passes the physical examina-
ton and Is accepted, he will be sent
directly to the organization he has
selected.
After National Guard organizations
leave their home stations and go to
the divisional training camp, recruit
plicants can only be guaranteed the
fact that they will be sent to the
National Guard of the state which
they have selected
Due to the fact that the incorrect
impression exists that recruiting for
the Naional Guard has ceased, Ma
tional Guard enlistments have fallen
off. There are many vacancies in
nearly all of the National Guard or
ganizations of Maryland, Delaware
and the District of Columbia that win
be filled by volunteer enlisments.
A drive is now being made through
Western Maryland by the regular
army recruiting officers in an attempt
to correct the impression that re-
cruiting for the National Guard has
ceased.
Many men are still needed for the
regular army in the following
branches: Infantry, medical depart
ments, field artillery, aviation section
OF the Signal Corps and bakery units
Of the Quartermaster Department.
