crisis and privations Is approaching.
The government ought 10 realize that
workmen cannot live on such spare
rations, which they do not even re-
ceive.

RISK INSURANCE ILLUS
TRATED BY THIS MARINE

Washington, March 29.-The I'M
portance of taking out War Risk In
surance cannot be too strongly I'M
pressed upon the minds of enlisted
men, say Marine Corps officials here'
who cite the following death to SUD-

"Private Andrew Jensen, stationed
in Cuba. took out $4,000 worth OF
War Risk Insurance on the morning
of February 8, 1918, in favor OF his
mother, Mrs. Margaret Jensen, 2OlS
Grande Avenue, Everett, Wash. He
died at 7:15 p. m. the same day His
death was in the line Of duty and
was caused by the accidental dis
charge of a machine gun"
Time limits in which applications
for insurance may be made has been
extended to April II, inclusive, for
all officers and men in active service
on October Is last, according to or

PORK PRODUCTION PROVES
POPULAR WITH THE MARINE

Paris Island, S. c., March 29.-
Probably no cantonment in the coun-
try is conserving more food than is
that of the United States Marines
here, through the raising of pigs.
The movement started some
months ago when several rockies"
purchased litter of pigs from a
Georgia farmer. Since then others
have followed suit until the pig has
grown into prominence as we'll as
POPULARITY through out the entire
camp.
Besides conserving food and fur
nishing the Marines with splendid
feasts, the pigs consume all table
scraps and garbage, thus saving
much disagreeable labor At present
the island ranch boasts Of about
1000 fine young porkers.
According to the latest reports
from France, the Marines over there
are adopting pigs and training them
to do Kitchen police"

CARRIED AMMUNITION TO
THE RECRUITING STATION

Lancaster, Pa, March 30.-Ser-

rlnc Corps recruiting station, is still
suffering from the shock he expert
enced, recently, when Oliver F,
Shields, of Marietta, Ohio, ambled
into his Office and set down big
package of dynamite and a battery to
discharge 1t. "Mornin', Sarge" he
said casually, "how's biz in the Ma
rine Corps?"
Gandee realized that this was no
time nor place for discussing recruit
ing business, so he hastily backed the
Mariettan into a corner and made
preparations for hasty getaway.
"say, can the rough stuff" cried
Shields, "I'm not a German spy.
That's dynamite for a plant at home
