BAKER FAVOR|NG
ARMY TRAINING
Will Soon Announce Stand for
Universal Military
Schooling.

WASHINGTON, May 17.-Secretary
Baker is expected soon to make a pub
lie announcement of a definite stand
in favor of universal educational mill
tary training, with a statement of his
reasons. 1t Is assumed that President
Wilson has approved his plan. Secre-
tary Bakers plan is understood to con-
template the use of the military estabs
lishment as a medium for training the
youth OF the nation, first along aca-
demic and vocational lines, and as an
entirely separate and subordinate fea-
tnre, IN rudimentary military science.
The secretary's suggested program is
said to be based initially on the bene-
fits which viii accrue TO the country
from the higher average OF intelligence
and the Improved standard of physical
w~ell-being Of the young men.
The favorable results of the opera
ton OF the A. e. f. university system
are believed to have largely brought
Mr.. Baker to his opinion. Not only
have the thousands OF soldiers in France
shown great eagerness to avail them
selves or the opportunity Of exchanging
guns for books" but the progress
made under the specially selected in
~structors and with the ca~refully-de-
signed schedules has been so rapid as
to surprise prominent educators con-
nected with the work. Moreover. the
comparatively short time given to mil
itary routine has proved ample to keep
sne inalylduai soldier In trim for field
service should emergency REQUIRE,
While the secretary's announcement
II expected to be entirely an exposition
o. his personal views, it is assured that
hlS advocacy Of Il form of edncationai
military national training will mean the
n nrausaSh pt-sotne such plan as a basic
before congress. ~ oe l"iu

|Shriners' Banquet
Is Closing Event
Of o. Perfect Da4

AL Chymia temple, the home of the
Memphis Mobiles Of the Mystic Shrine,
has about 500 new and faithful mem
bers, and not one Of the 500, all of
whom were put through the initiation
ceremonies during Friday afternoon and
night, but will remember his expert
ence with a mixture of pleasure and
pain.
The ceremonial session Of AL Chymia
temple brought together the largest
gathering OF Masons Of high rank that
has ever assembled at a similar gath
ering In the South. The class was the
! largest ever initiated at one time in
any Southern city, and nearly 1000 Wis
iting mobiles from the temples from
Chicago to New Orleans attended.
The visitors were lavishly enter
tanned, first at a barbecue at the Tri-
State fairgrounds, then with elabor-
ate dancing and musical features, and
finally, after the close OF the initiation
work, which was also carried out at
the fairgrounds, with a banquet at the
Masonic temple, given by the pas
~potentates of AL Chymia in honor OF
the visiting p~otentates and several Of
ficers of the imperial council.

Woman Takes Acid
Following Trivial
ROW With Husband

Following a trivial quarrel with her
husband early Friday night, Mrs. e. f.
Trickey, 757 North Dunlap street. locked
herself in the bathroom of their home,
so Trickey told the police, and drank
the contents of a small vial of carbolic
acid. Trickey, warned by her screams,
smashed his way through the door with
q chair.
An ambulance was called from
Thompson Bros, and Mrs. Tricky was
hurried to St. Joseph's hospital, whore
1t was said Saturday she probably
would recover, Policemen Taylor and
Davis, of the emergency squad from
the Central police office, answered the
alarm and assisted In rendering first
aid to Mrs. Tricky.
The screams of the two young chill
dren OF the TriCkey household, when
they learned what their mother had
done, sent the neighborhood into quite
a furry.

A number Of grocers and fruit men

days of high prices the cost, which Is

Work During War.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, May H. tSpl)-
The close OF business Thursday
marked another step In the progress OF
rehabilitation and return to normal
conditions In Tennessee, for at that
time the work OF the selective service
system was completed. The district,
local. medical and legal boards and gov
ornment appeal agents are demobilized,
and the state headquarters Of the He-
lecttve service system, formally closed"
This was the statement made by Mai.
Rutledge Smith, executive officer, who
has directed war organization In Ten
neHsoe since the first war conference
held with the president in Washington
May 2 and 3, 1917.
At all times since the war began
Tennessee a always answered first
every call made upon II and It was
so In the matter OF rehabilitation; in
fact, state headquarters In Tennessee
could have been closed on the 26th Of
April, but had to wait for the work to
be completed in several other states.
Recognizing the work which was ac-
complished In Tennessee, Provost
Marshal General Crowder Inscribed in
his own hand the following citation;
ITO Major Rutledge Smith, In COM
memoration of loyal and devoted SER
vice and the most pleasant personal
and official association. You have done
your work with distinction and effici-
ency.
