Physicians claim there is nothing that will supply this de- ficiency so well as the organic phos- phate known among druggists as bitro- phosphate, which is inexpensive and is sold by Lee & Osgood, and all good druggists under a guarantee of satis- faction or money back. By feeding the nerves directly and by supplying the body cells with the necessary phos- phoric food elements, bitro- phosphate quickly produces a welcome trans formation in the appearance; the in- crease in weight frequently being as- tonishing.

There has been ho change whatever and orders arc being re- ceiVed and titled as usual. 1n the event of any change it would mean that work might be different but there is a vast amount to be done and the need for workers is great as ever The Norwich chapter hopes that the local women will hold themselves in readiness for winter of faithful ser vice and will let nothing interfere with their attendance at the Red Cross rooms.

EVENT
 ON NATAL DAY
 OF WASHINGTON

All Arizona Shrinedom is now vitally interested in the big ceremonial which is to take place on Washington's birth day. February p, an event that is ob served each year. The ceremonial this year is not to fall short in any respect from those of preceding years, accord ing to announcements that have been made.
 The Illustrious Potentate of Fl Zari- bah Temple, Neill l.. Bailey, has re- gently entered the service of the gov ernment at Washington in the inland transportation bureau of the war de- partment He. therefore, has informed the Chief Rabban. Arthur c. Hulett, that he will be unable to be present on that occasion and requests Mir Hulett to act as the Illustrious Poten- tate during the absence of that of ficial.
 MT. Hulett has been closely identi- fled with the work of the building committee and with the plans for the | conduct of the ceremonial, and MT. Bailey, in letter just written, gives his assurances that MT. Hulett will successfully conduct all ceremonies on | that occasion.
 The various committees from Fl Ear | ibah Temple are industriously at work
 on the plans connected with the cere- monial on the 22nd and, it is stated | have them all well in hand. The act | ing potentate has requested that there

training camps as instructors to nearly a million men.
 In the test it was shown that the boxer in delivering the right uppercut proceeded through the same motions of hands and body as did the rifleman in the new butt strike movement of bayonet practice. and similarly through practically all of the other blows. Eff fective bayonet work, it has been shown at the front, requires quickness and deXterity of movement, strength and excellent sense of direction and distance. Boxing. it has been shown, develops all of this. A successful man with the mitts develops a confidence in close quarters, the quickness of feetworll and extremely rapid co-ordi- nation of hand and eye that spells the difference between defeat and victory in hand to hand bayonet fighting.
 Among the instructors at the canton ments are Bob 'McAllister at Funston, Leach Cross at Kearney, Packy Me Farland at McArthur, Kilbane at Sherman, Charley White at Grant Mike Gibbons at Dodge and Benny Leonard at one of the eastern camps
 The advisory committee appointed tC work under the commission of trainins camp activities is composed of Jas. J Corbett. Michael Donovan, Norman Selby (Kid McCoy), Richard MiliiGar and Robert Edgren.

progress of it's boys The tournament idea, which was developed by the di- visional athletic directors office at Funston, give it chance to see at first hand, and in thrilling action the metamorphosis of these men who were civilians four months ago, and who are trained, modern soldiers now.
 The spirit of competition which is engendered in modern American train ing, and which has made the Amer1- cans as well as the British such a wonderment to the Bosches, is let out to the full in the inter camp events. At Funston, men have competed for weeks for places on the various teams, and the squads that take part are picked experts.
 The work of the athletic director is considered by army officials very i'm portant. The football, basketball, box ing and wrestling taught the men have a direct bearing on their efficiency as soldiers, in addition to engendering that competitive spirit, which is the soul of a proper esprit de corps.
 This has been greatly handicapped at Camp Funston by the lack of |, gymnasium in which to carry on the training during the cold and indictment weather. Now, a movement is being made to ask the 1OlkS at nome Whc are interested in seeing their boys gC away in the best of shape so that they may come back the same way, for tn, 1 funds necessary for the erection of { gymnasium and swimming pool for tn, | camp.
