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

Prof Joseph Pache has turned his
Oratorio Society into a 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. T. Harrison Garrett was to adj
dress the society, but slight indis-
position detained her, and Mrs. M. 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
in the lecture room Of the First Meth
odist Episcopal Church, but the in
novation of knitting while singing has
not yet been inaugurated

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 serv-
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 1t 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 COM
pany unit They remain at the old
system of 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.

Says American Devices Are
Solving Problem.

Important progress has been made

comparatively simple matter, Secre-

since the United States entered the

plans is that of an Annapolis man
THE idea that the submarine will
be overcome by miraculous inven-
ton is not now seriously considered"
the Secretary said. 1.-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 typifed 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 OF so many
duplicate inventions been presented
