Why Afrmen Don't Reenlist.
They Find Good Jobs in Civil Life
After Their Training,
IRON nc Army aud Naru Jolonal

From tho Army and Nary Journal.
The air service, always lowering near
the head OF the list ia the number OF
recruits obtained each month. has long
pondered over the low rate Of reonlist-
ments Many opinions have been ven
tured as TO the, probable cause Of tha
enlisted personnel separating themselves
from the service at the expiration Of
their enlistment
Recently the air service sent out to
each man whose enlistment had expired
"A QUESTIONABLE requesting information
as TO his non-reenlistment Approxi-
mately twenty-five 10 nifty replies have
h6en received. The general trend of these
letters shows that more lucrative em-
ployment can be found III civilian life.
As Is woll known, no better school for
mechanically inclined men can be found
than the aviation schools maintained at
various fields. At the end Of three

expert in this Iine Of work.

Internment for Criminals.

To THE NEW YORK Herald; During
the war we interned dangerous and
supposedly dangerous aliens.
Why not now adopt tho same method
with all criminals proved or suspected
instead OF admitting them to bail and
letting them ply their art during tho
time intervening between capture and
trial?
This would keep them out OF the way
at least and would lessen the number
at large. FRANK GRAuEnT.

Wooden Wall for Jersey.
Condemned Ships Might Protect Its
Shore Line From the Ocean.

To THE. NEW YORK HERALD: Here Is
use for the 2s5 wooden ships which
cost s143, 900. 900 and which the Govern
ment does not know how to get rid Of:
The New Jersey Central Railroad has
expended more than 100000 in protect
ing the shore with rock and bulkhea
from Atlantic Highlands 10 Seabrignt
and Is not sure the coast line is yet safe.
These vessels might be towed and sunk
perhaps a thousand feet out from shore
line. They would perhaps form break
water that would protect the whole
shore line from the Atlantic Highlands
to the old West End Hotel site at Long
Branch and thus prevent the ocean front
from being washed away.

Paying Wages by Check.
Little Danger Seen OF Loss by Forg'
cry or Alteration.

To THE NEW York HERALD: Mayor
IIylan's suggestion that payrolls be met
by check instead OF cash, to eliminate
the possibility Of robbery by payroll
bandits. undoubtedly is worthy of seri-
Gus consideration by New york's busi-
ness men, Many Of them already use
the check system for meeting all Of their
disbursements.
The Mayors move incidentally recalls
similar action recently taken by the
Chief OF Police of Chicago, who issued a
statement urging all employers to meet
their payments by check as a means Of
suppressing the incentive to crime.
+, Mayor Hylan's Recommendation. how
ever, might have carried much more
weight had he emphasized 'ho fact that
modern checks. when properly handled.
cannot be forged or raised. Those who
use safety paper OF their own special
design, fortified with modern cneck writ
ing machines that shred the amounts OF
the checks in colors, have no cause to
fear forgery or raising.
Not many years ago this statement
would not have been SO true, for the
work Of such notorious penmen as p,
land and Becker Is well known to New
Workers., and checks not properly pro-
tected arc still easy money for crooks.
Some business men still have the idea
that In meeting their payrolls by checls
they would be in danger OF losing large
sums Of money through alteration or
forgery. And that's why | think the
Mayor should have emphasized the fact
that employers who properly protect
their checks have no reason to fear that
they will be forged or altered IN case
they fall into the hands Of crooks

reasons why more Buick cars are in use
today than any other make save one.

IN THE CIRCUIT COURT.

We note the following proceedings
OF the Jefferson Circuit Court since
our last report:
Judge ]. Nj. Woods overruled a mo-
ton FOR new trial in the case of the
State VS.. Francis Miller, of Jefferson
county, found guilty by a Jury at a pre-
vious term of selling Intoxicating
liquor, and sentenced the defendant to
three months in Jail and fined him
$500. Attorneys Campbell and Bovd,
Martinsourg, noted an appeal. Miller
was arrested near Kearneysville some
months ago and charged both with
possessing and selling moonshine.
j. L. klndall, of Shepherdstown, was
tried yesterday on the charge of making
moonshine liquor. The jury acauitt-
ed him. He is yet to be tried on the
charge of selling liquor illegally.
Court confirmed the sale of the
quarry equipment of the Southern
Limestone Company, the decree for the
sale being entered in case in which
Mcdonald Brothers were plaintiffs
against the company.
An Injunction order was entered
against John T. Porterfield, trustee.
on petition of ]. ]. Pittman, restrain
ing the trustee from selling ,he Mount
Hammond farm, five miles south of
Charles Town.
Two divorce cases wherein Robt. S
Brown is plaintiff and Mary Brown
defendant in one, and M. B. Goladav
and G. B. Golady the parties TO the
other, were referred to H. V. Sheetz
to take depositions and report at a
future term
Motion TO- a pe,, ..:aI o..o-.,I
the case of Coffman and Gilmore VS..
Z. r. Wall and judgment entered for
defendant on verdict Of a jury for
S9S1.4S
The cases of Florence Lockhart VS..
H. A. Lockhart and H. A. Lockhart
VS.. Florence Lockhart, being suits for
maintenance and divorce respectively,
were dismissed agreed, the partids
having affected a reconciliation.
The original order of court requir-
ing the petit jury to appear wednes-
day, September 20, was withdrawn,
the summoning of the jury being or
dered for Tuesday, September 26, the
day set for the trial of the indct-
ments now pending.
Milton Barsel, Charles Town res
taurant keeper, was awarded his final
naturalization papers.
]. M. Mason, Jr., special receiver,
VS.. the Fidelity Building and Loan
Association, emurrer overruled.
Judge Woods holds in effect in this
case that the bylaws of building
and loan association apply only while
the association is solvent. When an
association becomes insolvent, the
principles of equity apply. The losses
sustained by an association in the
course of its business should be pro-
rated among the shareholders. Share
holders who withdraw from an asso-
citation found to be insolvent will be
required to refund enough to pay all
share holders ratably.
The grand jury Investigated the al
legged sale of tickets in the New Louis
lana lottery, the charge being prefer
red against w. L. Fink, a Norfolk &
Western Railway employee, but failed
to find an indictment against him.

Apples Are Moving.

Orchard men of this section are
busy picking their apples these favor
able days. The crop is very small
one, because of the freeze last spring
but there are good many Yorks on
the trees. Comparatively few of the
apples are being packed in barrels
Most OF them are being shipped in
bulk, and the prices range from 7S
cents to dollar per hundred pounds
Barrels are selling at 55 cents apiece
help for packing is scarce and high
and growers find that it pays about
as we'll to sell them in bulk There
are about $50 pounds of apples in g
barrel, and if growers realize a dollar
a hundred they are willing to dis.
pense with the worry and expense nj
packing them, In selling by bulk the
only expense incurred Is for picking
and hauling to the station.
The Martinsburg journal says that
the first substantial sale of apples
this season was reported Tuesday,
when ]. William Stewart, well-known
horticulturist with extensive orchard
holdings in the Tabler section, an
nounced that he had disposed of his
entire crop of York Imperials, amount
ing approximately to 10000 barrels,
at a price which he estimates would
net him $3.50 per barrel If he had
sold them on the basis of having to
pick and pack them and deliver them
ready for shipment (. o. b. the cars
Instead Of this, he sold them tree-run
in barrels unsorted on the packing
house floors where the buyers, who
have rented his packing house, ac-
cept them and take charge of the
handling of the stock from that point
forward. Most of the apples will be
used for export trade, he said, al
though some will be offered for domes-
tic trade. The whole yield is taken
in the deal, some of it being sold on
the hundredweight and some on the
barrel basis. The yield will make be-
tween sixty and seventy cars. Mr.
Stewart will have a small quantity OF
Stayman and other varieties which are
not included in the larger deal. He
will handle these himself. His camp
is not being operated this year, the
arrangement with the purchasers OF
the Yorks providing that they furnish
their own labor and take care of it,

Shenandoah Junk Forgotten.

Announcement has been made that
the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad has
placed an order for 1000 new steel
hopper freight cars. II the company
had only been wise enough to make
the order 998 cars there would have
been enough money saved to do its
share in building new passenger
station at Shenandoah Junction. II
money can be found to buy 1000
freight cars, why cannot it be gotten
to build decent station in which the
patrons of the road may find shelter :?
The situation at Shenandoah Junk is
so intolerable that steps should be
taken to force the railroads 10 do that
which in all decency they ought to do
willingly. The winter is coming on
and soon it will be a choice be'Ween
freezing and bugs once more
