order specifies that Marines serve
both ashore and afoat, and are train

They form the landing parties from

CONSUMPTION" may not sound very
well 5but it is the Presidents way of
raising an army of sufficient propor-
tons to meet the present emergency
in an international crisis. The young
men of the country have been given
ample time in which to enlist for ser
vice. The war and navy departments
are even now urging them to enroll
their names in the effort to bring
these auxiliaries Of the government
up to q basis of real defence. But the
progress of recruiting offices has been
disappointing and the President re-
allies that selective conscription is
the quickest and surest way to obtain
the men he needs. It is the earnest
hope OF the government that the ne
cessity for sending an army to Europe
may not arise, but in the event it
should have a suf1ciency of men
we'll trained for service in whatever
capacity they may be needed.

denly began shooting and the convoy
was terrified TO see the British de-
stroyer at the stern OF the convoy be-
gin to sink, although 1t fought to the
end.
The German cruisers, after signaling
the vessels to stop, advanced on each
side of the convoy. which they swept
with all their guns at range Of less
than two hundred yards.
The German destroycrs came up and
helped TO spread death and destruc-
tlon on the defenseless shlps, shells
falling thick and fast. The Germans
were nor content to sink the ships but
shelled the llfeboats, and every living
thing coming their way was mercI-
lessly slaughtered. The survivors
owed their lives 10 the high sea which
was running, making the boats a diff
cult mark.
In the midst of the massacre an
other British destroyer came up and
attacked, but was soon
sunk in the unequal struggle. The Ger
man fiotilla then cruised backward and
forward along the sinking steamers,
pouring fresh and terrible rain Of
shells at a range OF 100 yards.
One shell went through the Swedish
