KHAKI AS VIEWED BY YOUTH
Army Called Place Where Collectors
Cease From Troubling and CAL
Iouses Leave the Feet

Ideas about army life that persua-
sive recruiting sergeants never heard
of in all their various clutches" IN the
service, were brought out by the public
schools Of the country under the aus
pices Of the army and recruiting serv-
ice.
Freedom from annoyance while in
khaki is the'theme of a little girl in
Ohio, who writes: zone of the benefits
Of an enlistment Is that you amt all
the time bothered by bill collectors"
"You get respect for law in the
army" Montana boy is convinced, be-
cause "the Constitution says America
is a country Of free and ungOvernable
rights"
Another boy in Illinois wishes teach
er was a man so she could be a sol
der" Filled with the enthusiasm Of a
patent medicine prospectus, an Indl-
ana school girl has this to say: "An
nlistmelt is good for the mind, the
lver, the lungs and the kidneys. 1t
axes the callouses off the feet and puts
hem on the hands"

Hunting for a home in New York
Is more thrilling than any tale ever re-
lated by GabOriau, more improbable
than the adventures Of Baron Mum

Of Arsene Lupin, as sOrdid as the nov

the dramas of Wilkie Collins. Just now
there is not an apartment to be found
in the whole Of Manhattan. Up In the
Bronx they are renting cellars. A sky

Bandits Armed With corncobs.

Our correspondent in villa HermOsa
communicated to us the capture OF
some inventive individuals, who, hav"
ing passed themselves off as rebels,
devoted themselves to robbing and at
tacking small towns. 'It was aston
ishing that the captured men carried
arms that were a crude imitation
of 30-30 rifles, made Of worthless
wood; in their cartridge belts they
were wearing cOrncobs instead Of
deadly bullets. For some time they
fooled many and gained much booty.
At last their protector, Gestas, slept
and they were taken prisoners. -

re DECORATE HALL
las MURAL RECORD

WASHINGTON, March 6. A
scheme Of interior decoration Of the
hall of the house of representatives
depicting the history of the nation in
18 or 20 painted wall panels has been
determined upon as mural record to
inspire the admiration and patriotism
iof future generations. Solution Of
the problem of how best to display
the large and practically, priceless
Limoges vases presented by France
in appreciation Of congress warmth
to Marshal Joffre and former Premier
Viviani on their visit to this country
during the war, brought out the
scheme.
These beautiful vases now stand on
cheap pine platforms in the speakers
lobby but the decorative plans call
for special inches for them on either
side Of the speakers chair in the
house chamber. Panel paintings of
Washington and Lafayette now adorn
Bpaces on either side of the speakers
chair and there will be moved only a
few feet. The work of gradually fill
ling the other panels around the cham
Der will be carried on from time to
time until the history of the United
States has been murally depicted. One
large painting already in the house
depicts Cornwalls suing for cessa-
ton Of hostilities under flag Of
