Men to Have Home Duty and Every
Ship to Cruise Abroad

Some innovations calculated to make
service in the navy even more attrac-
tive are ordered by Secretary Daniels.
The secretary has just retuned from
cruise along the west coast to Alaska
and his recommendations grew out of
his observations on the cruise and his
conversations with naval officers.
First, he will have all enlisted men
given six months shore duty during
year shore duty during their third en-
listment period. This shore duty when
ever possible will be at the home sta
ton. where thy man enlisted; as near
in various capacities. at torpedo sta
tons, receiving ships, recruiting sta!
tons, training barracks, and SO forth.
Practically every ship in the navy,
also. will be ordered on foreign cruise,
so the service will live up to its repu-
tation of ''seeing the world Orders
to this effect have been given by the
secretary to the chief of operations and
the chief of the Bureau of Navigation.

buildings in the vicinity of City Hall
have been greatly increased in recent
months" he wrote; II have been, told
advances exceed 100 per cent in some
cases. I respectfully suggest. if it has
not already been done, that the Board
of Revision of Taxes consider the pro-
priety of adjusting the assessments in
accordance, with the increased rentals
referred to-"

 Tucson and Flagstaff have already built armories for their military forces and the one proposed for the capital will be the third in the state if the bond issue carries.

 We investigated and found that this cotton had never been used in the manufacture of fine clothing material, but as we had built a mill different from any other in existance. we were not afraid to undertake the use of this cotton.

 MT.

By thus selling the product direct to the consumer and buying the raw cotton direct from the producer. the Textile Institute is helping to set an example that duobtless will be fol- lowed by other mills in the course of time. and will thus help to solve the problems both of the producer and the consumer.
 By training students to become textile experts, and imbuing them with the spirit of quality production rather than quantity, it is gradually bringing nearer the day when super fine cotton, such as is grown here in the southwest, will be in keen demand for fine goods production
 Character Cloth" is made in a manner that upsets all the traditions of the so-called fire goods trade. No sizing is used. Mill men told the school people that this was impossible. but with cotton of the fineness of Pima it is easy All the cloth is made of two-ply yarn, that is, of yarn made by twisting together two ordin- ary yarns This doubles it's strength.
