ment. Colonel C. A. F. Hatfield. in charge
or recruiting for the army, today received
instructions from Washington. on the recon-
mendation of the Quartermaster General, to
enlist this class of married men

Bakery Company will establish a branch of
the Held bakery at Broad and Filbert
streets at Twentieth street and Indiana
avenue. The branch. which will open Mon
