NAVY RECRUITING
DETACHMENTIS
AT NEWPORT
Gives Daily Demonstration
of Life In U. S.
Navy

The travelir- recruiting and publ
city detachment of the United States
Navy has an outfit in Newport which
arrived here yesterday. The members
of the party are Elmer Dempsey,
chief quartermaster, and Monteville
Lelsie, gunners mate first class.
These two young men have covered
pretty thoroughly the territory be-
tween Wells River and Newport,
stonping at all the rincipal commu
mites. They travel in the interest of
the United States Navy, giving in
formation and free movies depicting
life in tie United States Navy. The
movies are given in an open air
show, generally startin~ about eight
o'clock when the light conditions will
permit it.
The party arrived here from Or
leans on Friday morning in the Ford
truck which carries their entire out
fit. The detachment carries every
thing necessary to the members OF
the party with the exception of food.
They encamped in tent on Mem
phremagog Park and will be here UNI
til Monday or Tuesday. Weather con
ditions last night rather prevented a
large attendance at the movie show,
but since the pictures shown are very
interesting and take ~ all features
of life in the navv in most of its de-
partments, many are expected at the
other shows.
The screen is set up on one side of
the truck, and the electric generator
for the moving picture machine and
all the other accessories are mounted
in a position suitable for projection
The party has received every cour
tesy from the Newport Chamber of
Commerce and city officials, and are
verv enthusiastic about the city.
