which came here by train to board the
Upshur.
The ship completed the first cruise Of
the season q week ago, and during the
time 1t has spent in port here, the per-
manent skeleton crew has been busy
preps ring her for the second voyage.
Subsistence and other stores, as well as
thousands OF gallons OF fuel oil, were
taken aboard to sustain the vessel dur
ing the next two weeks she will be away
from Washington.
The oficeAs and men selected to make
the second cruise reported at the ar
mory last Friday night, where each Of
them passed through physical exami-
nation to determine their fitness for acc
tive service. This Is q requirement
which the officers and men must I'M
dergo prior to each of the cruises, and
also upon return to ascertain whether
there has been any change in their
physical status as a result Of the sea

mandsr of the local battalion, is on the
second cruise. The Sd Fleet Division Is

unteer to the fleet reserve and assigned
to this division. While IN volunteer
status, it was said, he took an active
part in drilling with the local outfit,
and was transferred upon the creation
of vacancy in the fleet branch. 1t
has been the policy of the battalion Of
ficerS to fill the vacancies with volun-
teer officers who display an interest in
the feet branch by attending the week
ly drills, when they are not required to
do so. In addition to these officers,
there also will be on the voyage Lieut..
Comdr. e. A. Harrington, Volunteer

chinists mate, re-enlisted in the Re-
serve last week. This is his fourth en-
listment in the Reserve. For many
years prior to the organization Of the
aviation division here, Machinist HAZEL
was very active in the line branch.
Figures have been compiled by the
local Reserve officials showing the gains
and losses in the local battalion during
the past year. At the beginning Of last
year, according to the report, there
were 708 men on the rolls. During the

An Authority On Problems Oe
Love and Marriage
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
] am engaged TO o charming

as to colors. While this girl
has a lovely complexion. and
is only 20 years old, she paints
good Heavens, she paints like
an old Indian going out to scalp
an enemy! It makes her look
old and hard, almost ugly.
When I tell her, as tactfully as
possible, that she is much pref
tier done up IN paIer shades,
she is furious. She seems to
feel her constitutional right not
only includes health, wealth,
and the pursuit Of happiness
but making o fright Of herself
as well.

rouge and lip-sticking. I do not.
But I hate to walk down the
street with a girl whose make
up is so raw it suggests q bar
ber's pole or an old frame house
jazzed up for sale. I love this
girl, but I'm just ashamed Of her
appearance. Is there any hope,
do you think, that she can be
brought to the point Of kal-
somining her face more arts

Information about the early
symptoms Of Tuberculosis can
be more profitably given to the
public than about any other
disease. Because first it often
begins so iEaSidtously that the
victim does not recognize 1t,
and second because early dag.
nosiS gives the patient . greatly
increased chance Of cure.
In my position I often have
to weigh carefully the chances
Of writing about aspects Of
disease that had much better
be left alone. There can be no
advantage in frightening pe0-
ple about O disease for which
little Of Q curative nature can
be done.
I recently saw q health pos

It was taken from the old fairy

was to avoid colds.
The trouble with such o
