Col. Fenton Forwards Names of
Student Officers at Fl. Myer.

Col Charles w. Fenton forwarded
to the War Department yesterday
the names of about 1,sO0 student
officers at the Fort Myer Reserve
Camp who have proved their fitness
to be officers and recommended that
they be Commissioned. The names
of the men recommended were not

About 800 of the candidates were

Probably one out of every ten not
commissioned will be allowed to at
tend the second training camp which
opens August q. Others not FORUM
ate enough to win their shoulder
straps will be urged to become nom
commiss .oned officers in the new ma
tional army.

CHAMBER DISCUSSES
new HEADQUARTERS
Carroll Hall May Be Under consid-
GRAFTON for 100000 Home.

Plans for the purchasing Of a home
for the Chamber Of Commerce were
discussed yesterday st special meet
ing held at Carroll Institute Hail.
President Sinclair presided.
Some time ago q committee was
appointed for the purpose of investi-
eating buildings whose location and
purchase price would be adequate to
the needs of the Chamber of Com
merce. and several homes are now
under consideration, This was made
clear yesterday when the preliminary
steps were planned and the negotia-
tion price set.
Although the matter was not men
toned. 1t is evident that the Carroll
Institute Hall Is under consideration.
II contains a large auditorium. GYM
nasium. shower baths, library and
reception hall. The location is ideal
and the price considered suitable
Whether 1t has been recommended by
the committee Is not known. but from
the fact that the board of direc-
tors met there makes 1t appear that
first steps are being taken to in
vestiga.e conditions.
The sum that is to be expended is
said to be about 100000.
The present headquarters, on the
second floor of the Brentano Build
ing, contain one large room and a
small office which is used by Sec
retary Grant. The room is not large
enough to hold the 1900 members.

changing.
Among those present at the meet
ing were President Sinclair, Secretary
Grant, r. p. Andrews, Joseph Ber-
berich, Herman Schulteis. p. T.
Moran, Louis Ottenburg. William T.
Galliher, Charles Howser, DR.. Battle
and Capt. James F. Oyster.
Joseph Berberich is chairman Of the
committee designated to report on

The extension OF the membership
was also limited at and it is thought
that the sons of the members will

Heat HERE EXCEEDS
MARK ON EQUATOR
Cities in Ecuador are Cooler Than
Washington, Say Latin-Americans.

II you were told that Washington,
at the present time is hotter than
Guayaquil and Quito. Ecuador, two
cities which edge on the equator,
would you believe It?
You would! And what's more, you
would be perfectly correct in your
surmise, for prominent Latin-Ameri-
cans identified with the Pan-American
Union here, who have spent a good
portion of their lives under the "shad-
ow of the equator" declared astaight
that Old Sol is hitting them harder in
the National Capital than it ever did
in their home countries.
W. p. Montgomery, special compiler,
at the Pan-American Union, comment
ing on this paradox, yesterday stated
that he had travelled for many years
In various sections of South America,
yet had never been subjected to the
intensity Of heat which he has en-
countered in this city during the past
few days.
"Of course in many parts of Ecua-
dor and down In the Brazilian coffee
country 1t is often a deal hotter than
1t has yet been in Washington. but
there are always temporizing breezes
which give respite to the inhabitants.
Such a refreshing feature, 1 find, Is
generally lacking in the National Cap
ital.
Temperatures above the 100 mark are
considered an everyday occurrence in
those countries south of the Gulf of
Mexico. For six months or more In
each year, too, there is no rain in
these countries to cool the atmos-
phere.

RECRUIT PROVES GOAT
AT CAMP 0RDWAY
Mascot Enjoys Himself by Kicking
Tin Cans Away.

Here's the latest funny story from
Camp ordway:
The new C troop Of the District
Cavalry has a goat, Nellie c. as its
mascot, and also has in its ranks
some very raw recruits.
Poor Nellie hasn't eaten anything
for two days" remarked a trooper
at mess yesterday.
''She must want some tin cans"
remarked another. you know that
every once in while a goat feels
like eating some cans and won't eat
anything else until she gets some"
A murmur of surprise went along
that particular mess table, but the
troopers didn't suppose the idea had
taken very deep root until several
hours later when they noticed one
of the greenest recruits raking pile
of food" toward Nellie C. He had
secured the rubbish pile and the by
ways of the camp and had gathered
together at least dozen good-sized
cans. Nellie c regarded her strange
mess with wonder, until the cans
were pushed before her nose. Then
she took one sniff and kicked them
sky-high.
Troop B. of the District Cavalry,
has a new set of non-commissioned
officers.
as announced yesterday at Camp
