LIFE AND CHARACTER READING.
DECEMBER II.

One of the strong characteristics Of
the man born on this date is his love
Of order and his determined will.
He is blunt In speech and often hurts
other peoples feelings by the tociless.
ouispoken manner OF criticism, yet he
is one Of the trucst and most loyal Of
men in friendships.
DO not critlcisc This man or his mo-
tives IL you wish TO retain his friend
ship. None OF the people Of this birth
date Will allow any interference or adj
vice from others.
Their motto is always Mind your
own business They live up to that
motto and they expect everyone else 10
do the same. Sagittarlus, the ruling
sign, gives this straightforward nature
and these men have great vitality and
viii power coming under the influence
of the two planets Mars and Jupiter.
The birthstone is a diamond.

Regiments by Score to y
Be Organized Son as
National Guard Units

Washington. May Reorganization
OF scores of new regiments of national
guards. artillery engineers. signal
troops and cavalry will be undertaken
soon to supply the tactical formationa
necessary for the establishment of the
sixteen divisions of the guard pro-
vided for in the War Departments
plans.
In addition to these troops, imme-
diately after the existing troops
have been drafted into the Federal
service. there must be organized dt-
visional headquarters detachments,
supply, ammunition and medical
trains. heavy field artillery and signal
battalions. an aero service. two cav-
airy divisions and many new coast ar
tillery units and reserves.
Comparisons of the organization
tables for the sixteen infantry divis-
ions with the existing guard estab-
lishment shows that in the infantry,
the arm of the service in which the
guard is strongest, thirty regiments
and six companies must be created to
provide the l44 regiments of the di-
visional structure.
The principal shortage is in field ar
tillery. Each OF the sixteen divisions
requires three full regiments of six
batteries each, or a total of 2SS bat
teries. There now exist in the guard
10S batteries.
The shortage in engineers is almost
as great. There will be needed six-
teen regiments, or a total of ninety
six companies, whereas there now are
only thirty companies.
Each division also will have an aero
squadron or balloon company, making
sixteen air-service units.
