MEN FOR ENLISTMENT.

sergt. T. s. O'Brien of the local Army Recruiting Station has been in structed by his chief. Colonel B. P. Nichlin, U. s. Army to make special effort to obtain men for enlistment in the Field Artillery detachment, R. o. T. c. unit, Yale University, New Haven.
 Only applicants who have had pre- vious service, and who are of excel lent character, can be considered for enlistment in this unit. Enlisted men on this duty are on communication status which amounts to considerable more than the ordinary pay of sol- dier. Members Of this detachment may procure rooms at the Yale ar mory for the small amount of S1.o0 per month. This Is an excellent op- portunity for local ex-servtce men who can qualify. and who desire an as- signment near home.
 For further information apply to Sergt. T. S. O'Brien, Army Recruiting Station, 925 Main street.

BERLIN DIDN'T SUFFER DEARTH
 OF BEVERAGES

Berlin, Jan. 2-In the midst of the merry making incident to Berlin's second after the war New Years eve, thoughts of "arid' United States re- cured to- Americans who are in the city. Every now and then, at the Adlon and Bristol hotels, where Amer jeans gathered, some one was heard to remark:
 "I wonder what they are drinking on Broadway tonight"
 Berlin did not suffer any dearth of beverages, thanks to the ''hole in the vest" through which liquid refresh ments found it's way to the capital In anticipation of luxury and turn over taxes, which will be effective after to- day. Berlin had it's final fling last night. All reservations at hotels were gone days ago, and, because of the large number of foreigners in the city, the Adlon and Bristol hotels had the biggest receipts they have known At the latter, pig was paraded about the dancing floor, the porker being symbolic of good luck in Germany.
 In spite of the' indictment weather, the crowds in the downtown section were almost as large as those that gathered for New Years eve froncs before the war.

BEST SERVICE EVER

Beyond all question this has been the busiest holiday season the New Haven post office has ever known.
 Mail of all classes has come in and gone out by the car load and never have letters, papers and packages been assorted. boxed and delivered so promptly and efficiently.
 Postmaster Troup and all who have assisted him deserve the com mendation of the public and cer- tainly the uniform courtesy of all the post office workers during these rush times has won the appreciation of all who have occasion to seek service in this important department of the fed eral government.
 MT. Pierce M. Maher, superintend- ent of mails. is a veteran in the ser vice and his efficiency and influence have been employed day and night in co-opera ton with the loyal clerks and carriers who have spared no ef- fort to make the New Haven post office the model institution of it's kind in the United States of America.
 Congratulations MT. Troup and 2 Happy New Year for yourself and al who have worked with you to give the people of New Haven the ,bes postal service they have ever expert enced-The New Haven Leader.

POSITIONS FOR
 4O,OOO MEN
 AND WOMEN

New York, Jan. 2.---There is g shortage ot nearly 40.ooO men and wo- men physical education teachers for pupils from to 20 years of age in the schools of the country, according to a report made to the American Physical Education association by Dr. J. H. McCurdy of Springfield, Mass, the secretary. One thousand new men teachers are demanded each year, he said, but the need is only partly met and the shortage continues to in- crease.
 Physical ineficiency is responsible, Dr. McCudry said, for the average loss of nine days to each year by the country's 30, ,00O, GOO wage earners, rep
 resenting loss of $675, ,000, 600 in wages and $1SO, ,000, ,00O for cost of treatment
 This does not cover, he added, the loss
 to the employer from reduced output ing illness.
 Dr. McCurdy advocated physica training for ali wage earners. Using the American army basis of one rec reation leader for every 50 soldiers, he explained that the country's toilers would require 60,000 leaders. The cos
 of providing physical instruction te the workers would be two cents a day for each person with an aldditiona two cents for light, heat and janitoI service, if school buildings were used 1 orSess than one-half the amount los in wages by persons absent because o; illness

Norwafk, Jan. 3.---Captain Willard Berry and his son, Harold L. Berry, in charge of a pulp schooner, had all preparations made for a fine feast of wild ducks. Possessed of Gargantuan appetites. the captain and his son de- cided upon two ducks each for their dinner. They were placed in a pot aboard the schooner and the fumes gave these sailbrmen an idea of the delights to come.

 The ducks are now kept in cold stor- age in Daniel J. McCarthy's restaurant as evidence to be produced at the trial, which will be held this morning at o'clock. Judge E. M.

LADY ASTORIS
 ENJOYING HER
 POLITICAL LIFE

London, Jan. 2.-'<Lady Astor is hugely enoying the attentions she is receiving in the House of Comr1 ons,'' says the Star. Her vivacity is tnfec- tious. Veteran members of Parlia- ment are always smiling at her. They enter and leave the House with new elasticity. There is a scramble to sit near her. The labor leaders seem to look up at her, and are fed with a smile that illumines the whole cham Der.
 "She wants to chat with everybody and when, the other night, the Deputy Speaker had called order, order!' because she was talking to a member of the floor of the House, Lady Astor at once skipped across the bar. and airily waved her hand at the Chair as if to say, all right old man; never mind, I daresay I'll do it again before long.'''
