NEW YORK CURB MARKET.

New York. April 2-Dullness again character
lied the trading on the curb. which was in
fuenced by the lghtness Of dealings in other
markets. The professional element was not dis
LOsed either to sell or buy stocks. Public
interest in the trading was practically nil
As a result Of the smaller business, price more
merts were narrow and without special feature.
Oil stocks were quiet almost to the point Of
neglect Motors were heavy. but declines were
small. Metal stocks were Quieter than they
have been in some time but prices were about
steady.

Second Lieut. Marcus A. Jordon.
Marine Corps Reserve, is dead. as a
result of injuries received in an
aeroplane accident on March 25. ac-
cording TO a recent announcement
by Marine Corps headquarters.
He was one of the marine force
which went to France with the first
contingent OF American troops, and
was later assigned to duty as in
structor in one Of the foreign army
instruction centers. In February
he completed his qualification tests,
and because of exceptional fitness
was retained for further instruc-
tion at this camp.
Lieut.. Jordon was awarded his
commission during the early days
Of the present war in the Marine
Corps Reserve. and upon compile
tion OF preliminary training he be-
came a member of the marine sec
tion which made the initial oversee
trip with the American expedition
airy forces. Eldridge f. Jordon. a
brother, resides in this city, while
his mother. Mrs. Annie r. Jordon,
lives at Long Beach, California.
In a recent decision touching on the
Army Nurse Corps the Judge Ad-
vocate General Of the army, defines in
a particularly lucid and explicit man.
ner, the proper meaning OF the often
but many times, vaguely used term
Field Service The ruling is as fol-
lows:
Field service is a term Of which the
military mind has a fairly accurate
conception, although It is not easily
defined. Going to the professional
books and the field service regulations
and the drill regulations, the term
will be found to have reference not
only to actual service in a campaign
or in action, but as well to an IN
structional service. which though in
structional, consists of the practice
of those exercises and duties WHICH
are incident to campaign or action, oi
the application of tactical principles
to assumed situations, with respect
to an imaginary. outlined. or repre-
sented enemy or a particular objec'
tive. As applied TO the Nurse Corps
1t means nothing more than the dis
charge OF duties usually and ordi'
narily connected with and discharged
by nurse in a base hospital, which
as its name implies is a hospital or
ganized for actual and practical ser
vice with an army in the field. Ac
