What Did He Mean?

Until three o'clock this afternoon
Warden Hanley of the Tombs prison
was perfectly contented warden. says
a New York correspondent. He had
been told twice during the morning
that man with frock coat and n
silk hat had called to see him, and as
the man was to return at three o'clock.
Mr.. Hanley cut short his tour of the
prison and returned to his Office. He
found that the caller had called. fumed
and finally left this note: Thirty
years ago my father, who was of me-
dunn height and undoubtedly punctuaI,
was employed as heat denunciator I'm
q metal mill i'm Pittsburgh. For years,
or at least for considerable time, he
told no one. However, 1t was common
rumOr. Now, after all these years,
does it seem that II man would deiib-
erately take any such action? What
would be his motive? / ask you as
a humanitarian to discuss this with no
one. Merely use IL for your own infOr-
nation and proceed likewise. I leave
for Pittsburgh at four o'clock, but trust
you implicitly.-A Friend" At a late
hour Warden Hanley. having read the
note through % times, was reading it
through for the ninety-third time.

MARINES ARE ALWAYS FIRST IN FIGHT

lf IL is necessary for the service of
protection of the American flag and Of
the upholding of the rights of American
people.
The Marine corps is curious In a way
In its formation. Ii has more men i'm
its ranks than an army division, and
yet in way its organization is that
OF regiment. although it has n ma
1or general commandment and several
brigadier generals. Then. like the
army. ii has its colonels, its lieutenant
colonies. its majors. and it's captains.
The Marine corps, big as 1t is, with
Its 10000 men in war time, keeps pc
culiar organization. because its fight
ers necessarily are divided into COM
paratively small detachments.
Under the command of Colonel Doy-
en- of the Marine corps 1000 soldiers
of the sea soon will he In the trenches
In France. These men, 1t has been
announced. were added to the prelim-
mary force which it ~ intended To
send into France because the govern
ment recognized the right of marines
to live up to the meaning of their war
time slogan. First i'm the Fight"
Men Needed for Marines.
The United States government wants
men for its Marine corps 1t hopes that
ii will not be necessary to draw from
the ranks of the selective service
army the men needed to complete the
complement of the soldier-sailor organ
iZation. Ii. wants volunteers. The at
fractions of service in the marines are
many. There are chances, and good
ones. for the enlisted men tn be rec
commended for a student course at An
napOliS, there TO be educated and
trained and upon graduation to re-
ceive commission. either in the Ma
rine corps or in the navy. The law
also provides for the promotion of
nOIlcommssiOned officers TO warrant
rank in the grades of marine gunners
and quartermaster'S clerk. Such Off

make money in addition to their pay.
Mess stewards mess sergeants, mess
men. clerks, and men assigned to avia-
ton duty receive amounts varying
from $50 10 SIS per month in addi-
ton to their base pay. There are pro-
visions for increased pay for men who
qualify as expert riflemen. as marks
men and as sharpshooters.
The Marine corps Is the oldest army
service of the United States. having
been organized before the army and
the navy. Every man who enters IL is
given his food. his clothing. his lodg-
ing, and his medical attendance.
The country needs volunteer ma
rines for service that is First at
the Front and Always Faithful.

MOTTO: ALWAYS FAITHFUL"
The Recruit Entering Service Today Is

Numerous.
BY EDWARD 3. CLARK.

Neutrality-suspicious. in the Fight" Is
the wartime slogan of the United
States marines. while "Semper FL
delis," always Faithful" is their
motto in peace and war.
So II would seem that If good works,
coupled with faith, secure a mans sal
walton, there must he some reason as
well rs rhyme in the last four lines of
the Marine corps hymn:
II the Army and the Navy
Ever look on Heavens scenes
They will find the streets are guarded by
The United States Marines.
Recently Uncle Sam has ordered an
increase in the number of his marines
to a war strength of 10000 men.
men than there are in division Of
troops of the United States army.
There Is room I'm the marines, there
fore, for any stalwart young Ameri-
can between the ages of eighteen and
thirty-five who wishes to be a soldier
and sailor in one. to be first i'm the
fight. and to he able to prove that he
is always faithful to the ideals of hu-
manity and the ideals of his country.
In the present war the American be-
lief is that the two are one.
When congress recently increased
the pay of the army IL also Increased
the pay of the navy and of the Ma
rine corps. The recruit today who en-
tiers the Marine corps will receive $50
a month pay, an increase of SO over
the pay in the more or less piping
times Of peace. More than this. IL he
goes to sea. which unquestionably will
he his lot. he will receive 20 per cent
additional, and ii is generally account
ed that in this war time the 20 per
cent increase will be continued while
the marine Is on land In foreign
country holding up his end for the
United States.
What is the marine? This is one Of
the questions In n little catechism is
sued by the officials of the corps. The
answer is that the marine is a soldier
OF the sea.
The marine Is a soldier and a sailor.
and yet he is neither. He Is a sort of
a twO-fisted fighting rover He goes

Rate of Pay in Navy.
The law increasing the pay of the
men in the navy has just been enacted
pensation have not yet been made out,
but il is a simple thing to determine
the rate of pay of each seaman of
whatever class by adding To the pay
given in the accompanying table the
amount of increase in each case. The
increased pay allotment has just gone
into effect. Below is given the navy
wage table, with the pay as it stood
prior to the recent act of congress. In
OrCyr 10 know what each mans pay
now is, it is only necessary To know
that every man now drawing less than
sd Il month will receive an increase of
SO n month: that every man drawing
at present from SD 10 S24 Il month. in
elusive, will receive So month addi-
tional: that every man drawing more
than S2i and less than So. will receive
SIS month additional, and that every
man drawing at present $40 or more
Il month will receive Sc month addi-
tiOnal pay.
II should be borne in mind that the
apprentice seaman, the ordinary boy
recruit, who ordinarily gets SLIGO a
month. will be receiving at the time
that this is read SIS additional, max
ing his pay S326O.
Here is the pay table as it stands
today regardless of the increases which
congress has ordained:

FIRE II MATCHES
U. s. Marines Are Taught Ancient
Methods of Fire Building

PORT ROYAL, S. c., August l.
How to light a fire without matches
is an important part Of the training
given to United States marines al
this station. The primitive flint and
steel, used long ago by our fore
fathers, and the old "wood friction
method borrowed from the Indians
have been revived, so that the sea
soldiers may dispense with matches
when dampness renders them useless.
U. S. Marines in the tropics can
start a fire almost instantly by u.s.
ing a hollow piece of bamboo. This
is done by Sitting the bamboo, stuff
fling it with dry grass, and drawing
a stick to and fro across it as a violin
list uses his bow. These resourceful
worldwide soldiers are expecting TO
find a substitute for the useful bam-
boo, in France.
