duced Sanford l.. Porter, who has
served a period of sixteen months at
the front as secretary of the Y. NJ.
c. A, being one of the first secre-
taries to go across. He gave very
interesting address, telling Of the
good which the different orders are
doing. A fact which made him par
ticularly interesting is that just be-
fore leaving for home he was asked
to go into the front line in the same
company in which Miss Faith Hinck-
ley is serving. The many friends of
Miss Hinckley were greatly pleased to
hear Mr.. Porter pay her a hearty
tribute for the beautiful work which
she is doing.
Many heary cheers We're given Mr.
Porter.
The report was then given, and al
though we did not go over the top
on the second day as we had hoped,
the total amount raised thus far is
s3720.14. but we feel positive that we
shall go over the top on Saturday.
Another luncheon will be held Satur-
day noon for the final report.
The Victory Boys have done re-
markably well in this campaign as
they have succeeded in going over
the top. They were to raise $500 and
the total amount raised up until noon
was s3S7.42 and a great deal of credit
should be given them.

GEN. GRAVES TOLEAD
 FORCES IN SIBERIA
United States Will Not Send More
 Than 7,OOO This Year

Washington, Aug. S.--Major Gen. sistant chief of the Army General Staff, has been selected to command the American Expeditionary Forces that will be sent to Vladivostok to cooperate with d Japanese military force in assisting the Czecho- -Sovaks to clear Siberia of German and Austrian prisoners of war who have organized 8 small army and are seek ing to get control of that part of Rus sian territory. General Graves is now in command of the 8th Division of the army at Camp Fremont, Cal, to which he was assigned last month.
 The announcement of General Graves selection for this important duty was made by General March, Chief of>the General Staff. At the same time General March made known that the American military force to be sent to Siberia would con- sist of the 27th and the 31st Regi- ments of regular infantry, which are now in the Philippines. These regi- ments have not been organized to the new war strength and number to-
  strength will be augmented by troops from the United States, but it is not the intention of the Government to have any large force in Siberia.
 Force for Present Year 1000.
 The entire American military eX- petition, for the present at least Will comprise about 1000 men. The Jap- anese will send a similar number, the agreement between the United states and Japan with reference to JOlnt operations in Russian territory pro- viding that their military forces should be equal.
 The purpose of organization or the expedition," said General March, has been announced by the President through the State Department, and need not refer to that further The force is relatively small and IS not tor the purpose of establishing an eastern front in Russia, but for the purpose set forth in the Presidents memof- andum and no Other.'
 The announced purpose or me Am erican-Japanese forces was to protect the rear of the Czecho-SloVak 1orces in their westward movement across

the bridegroom. Mrs. Martin Crook, sister of the bridegroom, was the matrOn of honor and the brides only attendant. The best man was Pro- lessor M. R. TurnbuIl of the Union Theological seminary of Richmond, Va, from which the bridegroom was graduated in May.
 All arrangements for the wedding were as simple as a wedding in the White House could be made, owing to the war. The decorations in the Blue Room were green and white. The long windows leading to the south portico were outlined with tall palms studded with white hydrangeas and gladioli.
 The bride, escorted by her father, entered the Blue Room from the main corridor and MT. McElroy and Professor Turnbull entered from the Red Room. There was no inprovised altar, only a small satin priei dieu, in front of which the bride and bride groom knelt during the short double- ring ceremony, which took place at s o'clock.

CONNECTICUT QUOTA
 FOR s. A. T. c. IS 3,347
Four Schools in State Will Have Units of New Military Branch-Suc-
 cceds R. o. T. Corps.

Hartford. Aug. 8.-Connecticut's quota of men for the Students Army Training COrpS-just announced by the War Department as an opportuni- ty for young men to enter the service and fill places for which they are best fitted by way of the cOllege--is 3,347. This information was given out today by pr. William Arnold Shanklin, president of Wesleyan University, who is in charge of putting the govern ment's new plan into operation in this state, and was received by Dr. Shank lin in a telegram from the War De- partment.
 Yale, Trinity, Wesleyan and the Connecticut Agricultural College in this state will have units of the Students Army Training Corps. This Corps will take the place of the former Reserve Officers Training Corps. The plan is the result of a carefully thought-out scheme to conserve to the highest possible degree the splen- did resources of America represented by the young men who have com pleted their secondary course of edu- cation and are ready for college en- trance. For the men under 21 years of age the plan offers the big OppOr- tunity'' to become fitted for an inn portant branch of service.
 Under the War Department plan, the men who go to college and volun- teer in this Student Army Training Corps will be required to register for the draft and when the day comes that they would be called into service, had they not volunteered in this Training Corps, decision will be made as to what branch of service they are best fitted for.
 Those who show particular ability along lines of war essential college studies will be kept at their books. Others who show special ability along lines will be sent to Officers Training Camps and will have an op- portunity to secure commissions. Still others especially adapted, will be as signcd to tasks in various depart ments of the service. Only those who show lack of ability along both mili- tarv and college work will, when the day of reckoning comes, go into the service as priVates.
