Frederick Sullens, of the Jack
son Daily News, and Lieutenant
Governor Casteel are all bet up"
over the adjustment of the Lee
Guards and George Rifles at the A.
and NJ. College. These gentlemen
are laboring under a misapprehen-
sion, for they seem to think that
military discipline has been entire
ly wiped out at A. and NJ. In this
they are wrong. The two rifle COM
panies were merely social organiza-
tions and had no connection with
the big. democratic military life of

The Best After All

In the glittering streets of the
glittering town. with its palace and
pavement and thrall, in the midst
of the throng you will frequently
long for your own little town after
all. If yon live and YOU work in
your own little town. in spite of
the fact that it's small, you'll find
it a fact that our own little town is
the best little town after all. .

We have heard of farmers who
have given as an excuse for not 60
ing into the dairy business that it
was too regular that one had to-
stay with it, year in and year out.
And the man who is not willing to
stay with it, had better stay out
of it.-Booneville Advocate.

farmers, also, and have noted that
none of them have ever been seen

Boy Scout Camp and Athletics


The agitation to resurrect the To-
cal camp Boy Scouts of America
ought to receive the encouragement
it merits by all who desire the boys
OF the city TO measure up TO the
full standards of boyhood. No or
ganization for boys yet attempted
has so fully met the requirements
of what it takes to discipline the
boy, make him useful in the COM
munity life, develop him in correct
ideals. and give him more pleasure
in the development than a camp
of boy scouts. which ought to be
under the direction of a proper
scout master. The suggestion to
combine the scout camp and school
athletics under the same teacher
or master seems good one.
If this were done parental authority
to discipline the boys in the camp
as we'll as in the school could func-
ton, and thus the objection that
boy scouts are too much without
restraint would be removed. Also.
the public fund available to en-
ploy a director of athletics in the
school could be supplemented by prj-
Yate contributions from citizen !
interested specially in the camp.
1t is hoped that the agitation may
find fruition and that athletics in
the school and scout camp in the
city may result.

Mr.. Hoover is different from all other

his associates by bis frankness and their
confidence by his sound judgment.
One Of the most delicate duties to be
decided was what to do with the prop

hear to the con1scation Of private prop

property must not be left in the custody
of enemies of the country. 1t was there
fore decided to appoint an alien property
custodian. For that post the President
selected A. Mitchell Palmer, afterward
attorney general, known later as "the
fighting Quaker" In 1913 he had de-
clined the portfolio of Secretary of War
because Of his Quaker faith. In 1917 he
was aroused to the belief that war alone
could pave the way for permanent peace

LAW TO REDUCE
'CUSSIN'' RESULT
OF AUTO ASSN
Sponsored and Won Statute
for Complete Marking
of DetOurs.

Declaring that although some ministers
Of his Satanic Majesty, in that it doesnt
always lead people to church, the Hoosier
State Automobile Association really has
done a notable piece of work tending
70 save mems souls. A. G. Lupton OF
Hartford City, president Of the associa-
ton. calls attention to one piece OF
legislation accomplished through the
efforts OF the association which will
keep cross country drivers from losing
their religion" when they strike blocked
road.
"Ths new law requiring detours to be
marked all the way around is but one
OF a number of laws secured through
the efforts of our association" said MT.
Lupton. 'Every driver who uses the
highways will benefit by this work OF
@ours-in fact every automobile owner
in the State is a constant beneficiary OF
our work, which we are accomplishing
from a too limited treasury supplied
solely by membership fees. The in
ference. then, is obvious. More members
mean more and better work and for this
reason we are urging a Statewide mem
bership drive for the next few weeks.
Referring to the marked detOur
legislation" continued Mr.. Lupton, 1T
may be stated that this new law, which
win soon be in effect, requires a detour
sign at barriers across roads blocked
for improvement, and detour markers
pointing the way all around back to the
main road again. At night it is a re-
auirement that q red light be placed at
the barrier. Thus, the law is not only
a source Of convenience but a great
factor for public safety as well. No
longer will the motorist run up against
q blocked road and have to fuss cuss and
grope around trying to find a way
around. The State law procured by our
legislative efforts thus saves much con-
demnation and strong language-hence
we have added to the moral tone Of the
motoring public.
This is but another evidence Of the
assertion that II the motorists of In
diana could only understand what we
are doing for them they would just nat
urally insist on helping US out in this
work The more selfish they are in look
ing out for No. 1, the stronger the rea-
son why they should get their names on
our roster and help. US help them
selves"
Mr.. Lupton points out that in con-
nection with the re-registration OF all
motor vehicles for title Of ownership IN
der the forthcoming abstract OF title
law. the registrars throughout the State
win accept membership fees for the
Hoosier State Automobile Association.
Further, we will pay the 81 State
fee. required by this registration law"
said Mr. Lupton, 'if the auto owner will
make his check to US for membership in
our association. He thus will receive an
immediate 81 benefit and a whole year Of
aTiliation in the progressive activities
of this association. We are a nonproht
making organization, having nothing
commercial in our makeup. Because Of
this we are affiliated with the American
Automobile Association, comprising more
than 900 clubs ike ours. We have been
here for twenty years and should not
be confused with so-called motor clubs

SUN DISTURBANCE
FATAL TO WIRES
Telegraph Service Hannpered
by Spots on SOL

PITTSBURGH, May 16--Because of
cycIonic storms on the sun and the re-
cent disturbance in the earth's magnetic
fields, telegraph and telephone services
were disrupted Fr1cay and Saturday
nights, according to DR.. D. K. Burns of
the Allegheny observatory. He says the
sun "spots" appear periodically every
eleven years and usually are accompanied
by electrical disturbances on the earth.
The spots observed this year, he said,
cover an unusually large territory, esti-
mated at approximately $4,000 miles. DR..
Burns says there are many unusual fea-
lures about "sun spots" now visible. The
largest, he said, is about $4,000 miles
long and 900 miles wide and Is sur
rounded by an almost countless number
of small spots.
According to DIR. Burns the spots will
disappear only with an eruption OF the
suns internal gases.

Naval Reserve Notes.

Increased interest Is being dis
played by the enlisted personnel in
the activities of the United States
Naval Reserve forces in the Dis
trict Of Columbia The several di-
visions are rapidly being organized
and the commands are being as
signed by Lieut.. Comdr. William R
Hoofer, executive officer. The new
division commanders are making
every effort to assemble the forces
which have been allotted to their
particular divisions, and 1t Is e1-
pected that within a few weeks
there will at least be a full battal-
ion in attendance
However, the officers are not ov-
erlooking the necessity of having
plenty OF recreation facilities to
attract the enlisted men. In fact,
consideration is being given to the
proposal to make the local armory
a clubhouse where the enlisted per-
sonnel may come any night in the
week and enjoy the privileges OF
games and a library.
Lieut. C. E. Eason. U. S. N, in
charge of the naval reserve enroll
ment office, is looking around in an
effort to obtain q pool table or two
which can be set up in one of the
division rooms in order to make the
service in the reserve attractive.
OF course, it was pointed out, the
officers and men must give a GER
tain portion OF their time to keep
up the important work of maintain
ing their naval efficiency, so that
in the event of an emergency they
can go about the ships of the feet
without any preliminary training.
Soon after the first OF March Sub
Chaser 210, now asst gned to the re-
servists and under the command OF
Ensign c. NJ. Donahue, U. s. N, will
make periodical training trips
down the Potomac River.
Comdr. A B. Clements, command
ing the local forces, is giving much
consideration to the matter of OBJ
tanning a larger ship. There is a
belief that there are several ships
of the gunboat type which the Navy
Department will be willing to as
sign to the local outfit, and If they
are available efforts will be made
to obtain one of them here. In the
meantime, the question Of apply
ing for one of the efficient little
Eagle ships is being held in abey-
ance.
There are a number of the sub
chasers at the Navy Yard, and it is
understood that the commandant
is favorable to lending any neces-
sary number to the local reservists
for practice cruises, and it is pos
sible that when the weather opens
up more of them will be assigned
here If another and larger boat can
not be obtained by that time.
1t is realized by the officers at
the local armory that one OF the
imperative needs of the local outfit
at this time is a suitable ship.
When a vessel arrives there is lit
tie doubt but what there VIII be an
enormous increase in the attend
ance. For that reason the officers
are anxious to get decision on
this matter as early as possible.
The U. S. navy shipkeepers on
the sub chaser, under the direction
OF Ensign Donahue, are painting
and redecorating the armory at the
| foot of Water and o Streets south
west. They are making a number
OF improvements in the building in
| preparation for its use as a drill
hall and naval reserve clubhouse
