The lieutenant swung around in his

over me, but l defiantly answered his
look with, "Well, it's so. I'm going"

CHAPTER !.
From Mufti to Khaki,

It was in an Office in Jersey City.
I was sitting at my desk talking to
n lieutenant of the Jersey National
Guard. On the wall was a big war
map decorated with variously colored
little flags showing the position Of the
opposing armies on the western front
in France. In front Of me On the desk
lay New York paper with big faring
headlines:
LUslTANIA SUNK! AMERICAN
LIVES LOSTI
The windows were open and feel
ing Of spring pervaded the air.
Through the open windows came the
strains of a hurdy-gurdy playing in the
street-"I Didn't Raise My Boy to Be
a Soldier"
''Lusitania Sunk! American Lives
Lost r-"I Didn't Raise Ny Boy to
Be Soldier" To us these did not
seem TO jibe.
The lieutenant in silence opened one
of the lower drawers of his desk and
took from it an American flag which
he solemnly draped over the war map
on the wall. Then, turning to me with
a grim face, said:
"HOw about it, sergeant? You had
better get out the muster roll of the
Mounted Scouts, as think they will
be needed in the course of few days"
We busted ourselves till late in the
evening writing oEt emergency tele-
grams for the men to report when the

MORE LIMIT
MEMBERS
FL Pasoans Must Continue
Working To "Put Over"
Our Quota.

Two more Texas Limit memberships
in war savings stamps were sold sat
urday through the efforts of the
neighborhood secretaries, one to Mrs.
Laura Z. Mossman, 1145 East CalifOr-
mia, through Mrs. Claude Hudspeth,
neighborhood secretary. and one
through Mrs. Chas. de Yampert.
The impression seems to have dis
.astrously gone abroad that the sale
Of thrift and war stamps would be
over by the 18th Of December. Had
the FL Paso quota been gained by
that date. this would not be so Sc
rious. 1t was the intention to wind
up as much of the work by the 18th
as possible. but conditions have con-
spired to prevent it It the first
place, many people felt that the day
after the armistice was signed the
United States government had no
further need of support. The only diff
ference a cessation OF fighting
brought about was in the use Of am
munition. To demobilize the great
fighting machine. and for the main
tanning OF peace conditions, the ex-
penditure of a great deal of money
is still necessary on the part Of the
government. and many people who
would have promised anything to be

American men were not being moved
