 TRAINING CAMPS

Just one month after the opening of the enrolment season for former stu dents in the Citizens Military Tram, ing Camps, finds the New England quota of $500 more than two thirds filled. according to a statement Just issued at Army Headquarters m Boston.
 Young men who have had one or more years training al these camps are applying for readmission in such numbers that Army Officials feel that existing facilities will be tried 10 capacity to accommodate them. Even at this early date it has been neees- sary to close enrollments for the Ca valry.
 The opinion is unanimous at Army Headquarters that those wishing to at- tend one of these camps next July should immediately file their applica- tions with the C.M.TC. Officers, Army Base. Boston, or run the risk of ind ing the camps filled when they do apply.

moon of Westphalia will throw
its CLEANS over the romantic
hooks of Muenster in vain, as
far as the city fathers are con-
cerned.

apart in the city parks, they
have drawn up their own
remedy for moonlight love-
making.
All benches in Muenster's
public parks, they said, must be
equipped with chicken wire
partitioning the benches into
"coopS", each affording room
for just one person, and a
rather slender person at that.
If that remedy does not help,
the city fathers ordered that
whenever more Than one per-
son is found sitting in a coop,
both must be haled into court.

answered a complaint of disorderly

"de-Siamesed," and said their man

Fish Eat Sirloin

L life that a fish leads in the
good state of New Jersey is not so
bad after all, despite the occasional
unpleasantness Of being shared on
barbed hook.
Budget Commissioner John Red

the Abel committee of investigation
today, testified that he had come
across a bill for $4,000, for fish
food, rendered by the state fish and
game commission.
It thought it was worth looking
into" said Commissioner Reddan.
IT learned that trout and bass pro-
duced in the state hatcherieS so
fishermen may have plenty of luck
are fed a steady diet of sirloin
steaks and buttermilk."
Investigation revealed that this
diet is best for fish, cheaper foods
having a tendency to kill off the
young.
