TILITY, durability, cleanliness,
and economy are the four car
dinal points of the compass
that direct attention to the Seng-
busch Self-closing Inkstand, sold by
A. Pomerantz G. Co.. 1926 Chestnut
Street. 1t is more than a mere re-
ceptacle for ink. 1t is an ink pre-
server, and a time, trouble, and tenn
per saver. 1t closes air tight after
every dip of the pen, so the ink is
always clean and fresh. 1t is non
evaporating, especially with red ink.
and saves 75%s of ink. 1t never
spurts out, spelling papers, rugs,
desk, etc. 1t saves pen points, be-
cause it leaves no surplus on the
pens to corrode. A ten days' free
trial is offered, so try one, and also
buy a base of splendid French plate
glass. They come for one or two
wells, or two wells and a sponge cup.

Many British
Soldiers Stay
In The Army

LONDON, February 15-(Corres-
pondence of The Associated Press.)-
Thousands of the British army who
recently became so war-weary that
they openly threatened mutiny unless
they were o on discharged, have turn
ed about face and are volunteering
for the New Army, according to the
military authorities, who assert that
they are satisfied that there will be
little difficulty in securing the 900,-
900 men who will do Great Britain's
share in safeguarding the peace the
Allies have won.
The causes said to have sent the
men flocking back to the colors are
the Unexpectedly large war bonus Of
fered to men who take on" and the
acute industrial situation. The first
factor has been of prime Importance
in the case of boys from IS to 81 who
have been two or more years already
in the army and who have no trade
to fall back upon in civilian life. In
the New Army they will be fed, cloth
ed and sheltered and draw a minimum
of about five dollars a week as pocket
money. They have quickly awakened
to the realization that there is no
such prospect awaiting them on a re-
turn to "civies.'
The industrial upheaval plays the
main part in the decision Of the older
men. In the first rush for demobiliz-
alton no mar was permitted to go
who had not a definite offer of en-
ployment. The government did all in
it's power to make certain that such
offers were bona-fide but in spite of
every precaution thousands of men
got their release on bogus papers.
These men Don found themselves in
an unenviable position. They could
not get work and they faced some
very uncomfortable inquiries if they
applied for the out-of-work pay pro-
vided for those who are idle through
no fault Of their own. The recruiting
sergeant was an easy road out of
their troubles and hat astute indivi-
dual, who draws a bonus for each
recruit, was not blind to his opportun-
tiles.
A third factor OF minor but real i'm
portance is the fact that numbers of
men who have been home on liberal
leave since the armistice was signed
have discovered that they are not
nearly so happy out of khaki as they
imagined they would be. They frank
ly admit that they miss the compan.
ionship of the army, the lack of res
possibility and the easy hours. Now
that the war is over the army is rest
ing on its laurels and in the great
camps around England work is con-
fined to n hours parade a day with
football games, paper chases and 9TH
er sports to fill in the remainder of
the time, That is a considerable con-
trast to eight or nine hours of mono
onous toll in a shop or factory.
The army authorities have not so
far made public any figures on re-
cruiting but some indication Is offer
Cd Ey the experience of two battalions
in n OF the largest camps in the
south of England. In one unit,
where all the men had seen service
overseas, more than 200 re-enlisted in
less than two weeks. In the other,
an IA" battalion made up of boys
under military age. more than 300
took the oath in the same period, a
large number for the regulation peri.
cd Of twelve years.

To the People Of Maui:

To the People Of Maui:
We have had campaigns for the
Red Cross, United War Work, Liberty
Bonds and War Savings Stamps and
for a number Of other worthy pur-
poses, in the last few years.
We Will soon have another cam-
palgn, a political campaign, in
which the women Will be PARTICULAR
ly interested as they will vote
here for the first time Pending
This political campaign it would be
a good idea to have a BRIGHTEN UP
campaign say the first week in
April.
We have not had a real BRIGHTEN
UP week here since 1914. Now the
war is won and peace Will be sign
ed probably about the end of March:
the proposed League Of Nations pro-
misses TO soon be a reality; most Of
the boys are back and many of the
others are on their way home ; the
FLU" is nearly pau and Easter will
soon be with US.
Surely NOW is the right lime
for a real good BRIGHTEN UP CAM
PAIGN and the week to hold it is
suggested as March 3lst to April
5th.
Yours faithfully,
