COLLEGE In KHAKI
That Is What Army Is Offering to
Recruits, Says Captain Ray.

Free trade schools have been estab-
lished by the construction division of
the United States army in all perma-
nent environments in this country
making a university in khaki a real
ity. according to Capt. C. C. Ray, of
Camp Funston, a recruiting officer for
the construction division, who is in
Topeka today.
The government plans to give tens
of thousands of young men a free
technical education thru the one and
three-year enlistment plan" Captain
Ray said. This training will enable
thousands of ambitious young men TO
leave the army at the end of their en-
listment period with an earning
capacity in their chosen trade of from
$3.50 to $500 a month. There is big
demand over the country for skilled
labor. I understand the Santa Fe is
now calling for experienced mechan-
les. This is one of the trades taught
by the construction division at Camp
Funston"
Many Trade Courses
Captain Ray stated that there are
well equipped plumbing, carpenter.

Saturday were Prof. Finch, Misses
Ina Frazier, Esther Holderman. Eva
House, Margaret Miner, Julia Mayo,
and Mesdames George Muzzall and
Mathis, of the South Fulton school;
Mrs. Annie Roach, of Oak Glade

The domestic science department
of the South Fulton schools served a
most delightful lunch. They had an
elaborate table set down in the base
ment, both in quantity and quality.
Miss Cooper, of Memphis, gave
most interesting and instructive lee
ture on the psychology of the boy.
Every teacher, parent and friend of
schools in the county would have
been materially benefited if each
could have heard this lecture. i feel
like the teachers in Sixteen, who
were within driving distance and
who did not attend, were sick or in

from coming out.

Small Fires.

The residence of T. M. George on
the corner of College and Division
streets was destroyed by fire last
Monday morning. Mr.. George, ex-
press messenger, came in the night
before late and breakfast was also
late. The family were at the table
when one of the children gave the
alarm. BY that time the front por-
ton of the house was in flames and
Mr.. George began to look after the
children. Seeing them safe, he
found his wife trying to save some
of the furniture and he had to keep
her back from the fire. This kept
Mr.. Morris from doing what he could
in saving his household goods, and
by that time everything practically
was in flames. The fire had gained
considerably Roadway before the
alarm was turned in, and the fire
company had very little chance to
stop the fire. 1t was total loss. Mr..
George had $1,450 on the house and
none on the furniture, we under
stand, and his net losses were very
heavy.
Mrs. Hale on First street north
had a small fire damage on her resi-
dence. Fire broke out there few
minutes after the George fire and
the motor truck went from one fire
to the other. Only a chimney and a
small section of roof was touched by
the fire,

FISH PRICES

On account of the wind moderat- ing, several halibut boats got away this morning for the halibut banks. Among those which took on supplies and left are the Olga, Celtic and Belle. After having been in port for the past six weeks the Emma, Capt. Tom Ness, took on supplies today and will likely leave port today. The Emma is the boat which was dis abled some weeks ago by the cran shaft of the engine breaking while the boat was in severe storm.
 From indications today it is likely that before tomorrow night there will be no fishing boats left in port. No price on halibut has been re- ceived for several days but there is a possibility that the next price will be higher as the stormy weather of the past week or so has restricted the catches.

LEASING MEASURE CAUSES INTEREST IN
 ALASKA OIL FIELDS

The petroleum produced in Alas ka is derived wholly from a single patented claim in the Katalla oil field, according to the U. s. Geolo- gical Survey, Department of the ln- terior. The old wells on this claim and the refinery were operated as usual in 1918. Two new produc- tive wells were also drilled in the Katalla field. The total production in 1918 was somewhat larger than in 1917.
 There has been a revival of in terest in the potential Alaskan oil fields during the year in anticipa- ton of the expected passage of a law providing for the leasing of the Alaska oil lands. It is reported tc the Geological Survey that investi. gations of the supposed oil lands on the Alaska v Peninsula mere made during the summer of 1918. Nc legal provision has yet been made for the leasing, and the Alaskan oi! lands are still withdrawn from en- try. There was some drilling for oil in the crystalline rocks near Cape Nome in the summer of 1918 but the results were unfavorable as was to be expected. At Seward some interest was aroused over the discovery of inflammable gas issu- ing from the mud and water at sev, eral loralities in. the swamps along the railroad. The rocks near these localities as described in 1915 by U. s. Grant, of the Geological Sur yey, are states that have been met amorphosed and folded to degree which makes it impossible for ac- cumulations of oil or gas to be re- tained in them.
