PLAN EIGHTEEN
II. S. DIVISIONS

WASHINGTON, Sept. 17.-Sub-
stantial progress is being made by
the army general STAFF. acting In CO.
operation with the States execu-
tives, in developing the National
Guard along lines OF the new or
ganic law designed by Congress to
make that body the first re-enforce-
ment OF the regular army in time OF
war. The department up TO Sep
tember had reorganized and given
Federal recognition TO National
Guard units aggregating $4,000
men. an increase OF 5000 approx
mately since January l. The au-
thorized strength also has been in
creased IN the same period from $685.
1853 to 225.OOO.
The National Guard divisional
units. or their substitute units which
participated in the war. have been
reconstructed and three additional
divisions have been organized.
The basic plan for reorganizing
the Guard provides for the creation
OF IS divisions and a small proper
ton OF corps and army troops. so
that when combined with the regu-
lar army both will be able to furnish
on mobilization essential combat ele-
ments OF three field armies.
The organization of these eigh-
teen divisions was reported recently
as averaging &C per cent. Of compile
ton. In the last six months 1856
officers have been given federal rec.
ognition, bringing the total to 612S
Twelve coast artillery commands
have been placed on the reduced
personnel basis. IN line with the re
duction OF the army TO 10000 men
The districts affected are; Ports
mouth, N. H.; New Bedford Mass.
Eastern New York, Southern New

emotion which somehow has man
aged to pass them by.
But who is qualified TO frame a
brand new definition OF love?
Even the professors who delve into
the secrets of the subconscious, or
the unconscious, mind have so far
treated love only by its symptoms.
They have accumulated a vast
store of information about how love
acts and almost nothing about what
love is. They tell us that love pro-
duces our dreams, promotes our bus
mess enterprises disturbs our poll
tics. and provokes our wars.
Like electricity, love is manifest
but undetinable. At least, no two
persons can agree upon a definition.
Just as women of all ages ask What
is Lover" so opinion-makers of all
professions can only chorus. 1--WE do
not knowl"
