10000 men FOR
navy MONTHLY
IS new RULING
Majority Of Men for Navy and
Marine Corps to Come From
Run of Draft.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 23.-The pro-
gram under which the navy and the
Marine Corps will secure the men her
after needed was announced today by
Secretary Daniels after conferences
with representatives Of his depart
ment, the Marine Corps and the Pro
vost Marshel Generals office. The
navy is to have an average OF 10000
men monthly, while the Marine Corps
will get 5000 monthly for four months
and 1900 each month thereafter.
OF the navy's allotment OF $4,000 1t
may enlist or enroll men who have
special qualifications for certain navy
work, but the remainder will come
from "the run of the draft" navy Of
ficials cutting out skilled men to meet
as far as possible the special needs OF
the service.
Men who now hold or may hereafter
be given deferred classification, on ac-
count of dependency, will be permitted
to enlist in the navy, as the higher pay
given is expected to do away with the
possibility Of hardships to the de-
pendents.
Those who have had previous SER
vice in the navy also will be permit
ted to re-enlist In no case, however,
not even from the draft, will the navy
accept men who cannot read, write
and speak the English language, nor
will 1t accept men not citizens of the
United States or conscientious OBJ
jectors.
Much the same system will be fol-
lowed in enlisting men both in the
navy and Marine Corps. Naval re-
,cruiting stations will be known as
"mobilization centers," each having a
definite territory to serve and they
will be established at central points.
Marine Corps recruiting offices also
will be kept open.
Mobilization Points.
Men desiring to enter either the
navy or marine corps will be required
to make application at the proper re-
cruiting Office. When men are ac-
cepted for the navy the mobilization
officers will apply for them through
their draft boards. but in the case of
men qualified to enter the marine
corps the recruiting officer will send a
request to the Provost Marshal Gen
eral for their enrolment, the Provost
Marshal General then will order the
roll them.

nounced by Secretary Daniels as fol-

The Cycle of Fads.

A contributor to the Springfield Union
speaks almost shudderingly of the time
when a parlor was hardly considered
complete without painted milking stool
and says that there are actually country
homes where the hair wreath is still
treasured. Although we never owned a
decorated milking stool, it would seem
as if one would be as agreeable to look
upon as some of the ultra modern fads
and fancies that appeal to us now, and
which we may shudder at years hence.
The hair wreath and also the wax flowers
Of that period required much skill of
hand and certainly were as artistic as
the stuffed silk atrocities called fruit
which have been literally 'sewed" broad
cast on all sorts of fancy work for the
past wear or two, and which have resem.
bled almost anything from a hybrid pin.
cushion to cluster of camouflaged
prunes. A century ago, furniture was
made of mahogany, cherry and other
woods of fine grain and covered with a
coat of paint. For many Years we have
been collecting such furniture and scrap
ing off the paint to get TO the wood be-
meath. Fashion is now gradually return
ing to the coat of paint, so we proceed TO
put one on for the next generation to
take off--and so it goes. If, sometime
the cycle of fads and fancies should turn
again to milking stools, it is a milking
stool we shall have in every well regulat-
ed home st. Adams Messenger.

Conservation Still in Force.

While there is general rejoicing over
the beginning Of the end of the world
war, it is well for everyone' to bear in
mind that the conditions under which
we have been living in this country still
continue in large measure, and will do
so for some time to come.
The war is over, but the necessity for
conservation of food and fuel has not
been ended. Some people have enter
tanned the notion that the governmental
economic control would automatically
end with the signing of the armistice
But such is not the fact The food and
fuel administrations continue in force
until the president proclaims peace after

Senate And it may be long day be-
fore that time arrives Instead of having
fewer people to feed than during the PEE
Rod of conflict the end Of strife has
thrown vastly more upon our bounty.
We must prepare table before count

The released inhabitants of many coun.
tries who in one way or another were
kept alive by the crumbs that fell from
the Prussian table, are left without any
visible means of support, now that the
allies have driven the Germans from the
larder that they presided over. Until
these hungry millions have been enabled
to get upon their feet, we who have this

A federation of New York state sheep
growers associations to cooperate with
the county farm bureaus and the state
federation of farm bureaus in handling
the state wool clip was the result of
recent meeting of members of 10 farm
bureaus at Syracuse. The commander
ing Of the nations wool clip last spring
brought forcibly home to the eastern
sheepmen the imminent necessity of
unity among wool producers. To meet
the situation, in June farm bureaus lent
every assistance to the creation of wool
pooling associations Nineteen such clubs
marketed nearly half million pounds OF
