Growth of American Army

From the world s WorK.
 On April 6, 1917, the day when we de- clared ourselves belligerents, our military resources were so largely undeveloped that 1t seemed absurd to believe that this country could prepare itself to take any important part in land operations under three or four years. Indeed, it may not be amiss here to recall the feeling, amounting even in some official quar- ters to the conviction that America's 8 share in the war would be chiefly con- fined to feeding and financing the allies, making their munitions and furnishing Q naval patrol for the north Atlantic sea lanes The visit of Marshal Joffre and his appeal for men changed all this It was not until then that the country fully awoke to the necessity of creating, equip ping, arming, and placing in the field a tremendous army in the shortest possible space of time. We began then with what amounted to blank sheet of paper, upon which we could write either success or failure.
 The simplest and easiest task of all was the increase of the personnel of the army from 190,000 officers and men on April G., 1917, to 3,734, ,420 actually in service on the day the armistice was signed. This figure includes, however, 27,28S marines; the actual strength the army proper was 3, TOT, ,122 officers and men. Of these, 2,002,- 175 had been sent overseas and another 94,248 were on ships, en route to Europe, when hostiltieS ceased. Barring some

HUNTSVILLE

Huntsville. March 22.-(speciaL)-A has been started here by the Chamber of Commerce for the celebra- ton of the Fourth of July and the cen- tennial anniversary of the state of Ala bama, with two big days on July and 5 of this year. History records that the first constitutional convention began in Huntsville on July 5, 1S19, adopting the law on which Alabama was ad- mitted to the union. The state legislature has already appropriated the sum of $50,- 900 for a suitable centennial celebration and it is maintained by the Huntsville Chamber of Commerce that this celebra- ton should be held in this city, the birthplace of the state. Most of the boys who left this county and went to ths great war will have returned to their homes by the Fourth, and it is planned to have a monster Independence Day celebration here in conneAtion with a publication over their homecoming.
 The greatest liquor haul that local of dcials have made here in sometime was made Friday by a squad of policemen who found 50 gallons of red liquor in three barrels buried in the yard of 2 residence occupied by Dock Lewis, in the northern part of the city. The whis- ky is worth about S40 gallon at pre- vailing prices. Lewis disappeared before the police could locate and arrest him. Ed Spelce, charged with being a partner in ownership of the contraband, has been placed under arrest for violatinn of the prohibition law.
