Moral: Il You Must
Get Into Camp After
Dark, Wear the O. D.

There's a moral in this that it may
be we'll for discharged army officers
to remember.
A major who has been stationed at
Camp Gordon since August, 1917, re-
ceived his discharge papers few
days ago and forthwith donned his
"cits." Then he remembered some
thing he had left at camp. and char
tering a Git" journeyed out. He
reached the entrance to the canton
ment at dusk and was halted by q
sentry, who greeted him with the
old familiar refrain, Advance friend
and be recognized"
The major, minus gold leaf and
Uniform, advanced.
Cant get by here" said the SEN
try; cts past hours for visitors"
I'm not visitor said the major,
II am Major So-and-So, of such-and-
such, just discharged, and want to
set to my old headquarters for a
"Nothin' doin'," observed friend
scntry. II never saw you before and
never heard of you, either.
But / am Major
"I don't give a happy if you are a
discharged major general" snapped
back the soldier, you are a civilian
now, and you don't get by here"
And he didn't. The former major
r,eekly gave it up and returned to
Atlanta.

WIFE
IS BELIEVER IN
FREE LOVE IDEA
Texas Minister Seeks Di-
vorCe, Asserting Beautiful
> Spouse SCorns Marriage
Vows

Charging that his wife is a firm
believer in free love and other So
cialistic and pacifist ideas, Rev. Jo-
seph Rosseel Mayer, former instruc-
tor in the University of TlIas, now
professor in the Baylor university,
of Waco, and pastor OF the Colonial
chapel at Dallas, has filed in the
Forty-fourth district court of Dal-
las county a petition for complete
divorce and change in his name.
Rev. Mr.. Mayer names as chief
correspondent one Percy Clapp,
whom he characteriz9s in the petit
ton, "a pacifist and socialist" Mrs
Mayer is now in Buffalo, N. Y. She
refuses to answer the petition. Rev.
MI. Mayer lis prominent in educa-
tional and church circles in the
southwest and the case is attract
ing unusual attention.
According to allegations set up in
his petition for divorce, Mrs. Mayer
regarded the marriage ceremony as
nothing sacred; that she believed
the embrace of free love should
not be encompassed by the contract
of marriage and that such contracts
were rever intended to regulate the
feelings of the heart"
The petition, naming Percy Clapp
as a correspondent, says: AT one
time, when ] had been at my work
for several days, L returned to find
that my wife. and Percy Clapp had
occupied the same bedroom and bed
on three different nights, and that
other evidence showed they had haG
improper relations" The petition
then says that neither Mrs. Mayer
nor Percy Clapp denied occupying
the same room in the Mayer home
but that they did deny having had
improper relations. Rev Mr.. Mayer
points out that such relations arc
not considered Improper under the
doctrine Of free love as believed by
both his wife ana Percy Clapp.
Another clause of the petition de-
clarcs THAT my wife held improp-
er relations with our hired man, q
person of low breeding and mental
ity, and that she openly preached
the doctrine of free love to her
friends and acquaintance as well as
his" These doctrines, the husband
asserts, were advocated at social
functions at the mayer home and at
other gatherings where Rev. Mr..
Mayer and his wife went. He de-
clared that he never started a dis
cussion of theology with friends or
fellow workers without Mrs. Mayer
taking a part and conc ding with
her theories of socialism and free
love.

Mllitary Training Bill Is
Introduced IN U.s. Senate:
F1res Ages From 10 to 26

year to year-is provided by the bill,
which was referred to the senate
military committee with the sugges-
ton by Senator New that it be laid
report at the next session of con-
gress. Under the bill all youths
upon completion of the training peri
cd, as fixed by the president, would
go into a national reserve for call
in case of necessity. Priority of
service would be placed upon the
youngest annual class.
The plan was urged by Senator
New as a national policy to be
adopted as soon as possible. He de-
MED universal training involves
maintenance of a large standing
that situation. In this connection he
opposed the war departments plan
for a temporary domestic army of
100000 men as neither necessary
nor desirable"
Asserting that misconception re-
garding universal training has arts
en-, Senator New said:
Universal training guarantees
that the youth who is to be con-
scripted or who shall volunteer Shall
go prepared rather than he shall be
taken unprepared. 1t provides the
only guarantee against any occasion
for maintenance of a regular army
of greater proportion than the coun-
try needs, or willing to support
Under the operation of this system
the soldier is in reality a citizen,
free to follow his chosen vocation
except for the period required for
his proper training.
I'VE should have at all times some
thing like 100000 men capable of be-
ing officers.
UNLESS occasion comes the citizen
10 hII
it's members will have the benefits
that accrue from judiciously-ap
physical training, of discipline and
the improved conceptions of citizen
ship that military training brings
with it,
In preparing his bill, Senator New
said he had conferred with military
men in whose judgment he had con-
fidence, but explained that his meas
ure should be regarded as only the
nucleus for legislation rather than
a fixed feature. War department
thority to hold men now in service,
Senator New predicted, will prove
unpopular with the American public.
He urged that a permanent policy oil
universal training be adopted as SOON
as possible, although conceding that
action before the next congress Is
impossible.
Explaining his bill, Senator New
said it proposes that in training
youths, they preferably should be
called for the scheduled continuous
training period in their nineteenth
year. Those who are sole support OF
parents, wives or children would be
excused unless the government
should contribute to their dependents
during the training period. Men In
training would receive only nominal
pay. The bill also provides for COM
missions for 20 per cent Of the
youths trained up to the rank OF
major or lieutenant commander in
the national reserve.
