Necessary painting and minor struc-

While there are 10 different units
in the regiment, fOur of the units,
the three battalion headquarters

panies are attached to others of the
regiment for rations during the
training period.
Fifteen substantial buildings are pro-
vided for the use of the companies as
kitchens and mess halls. The buildings
are tile, 25 by 40 feet in size and with
concrete floors. Running water is
piped to all of the buildings and al
are electrically lighted.
A small StOrerOom is partitioned Of

ice box in another corner Field ranges
with the regulation cooking vessels &C.
%companying them, are used for cook
ing. Concrete bases have been pro-
vided for the field ranges. A large
serving table in the kitchen is also
provided. and hot water is available

tables each. These tables are con.
structed with benches attached. Com

made up my mind what I would do.
/ thought I'd ask your advice. / want
to make some money rather quickly,
and I thought you might have some
special work. l mean something like
organizing and running something.
I've been thinking it over and I'm
pretty good at things like that-execu-
tive things. l was chairman of the
club fete for the hospital fund this
year and We made a lot of money and
everybody said"
He knew her now for one of his pet
antipathies-a society dame out SUM-
ming.
Listen, miss" he said. Il been in
this business for twenty years and l
never yet had a call for anybody to
run a club feet"
But / don't mean-'
Il know what you mean, miss. You
mean you might consider something
else-like hiring out to the mayor for
a few hours to tell him how to run
the city, She flushed angrily but
his eyes were merry. Listen, miss!
I've heard of girls like you gettin' bored
with high life and deciding to show
the world what was wrong with it. But
l never heard of 'em doing it, see?'
He grinned at her good humoredly
and to her surprise, instead of going
as she had meant to do-she found
herself saying desperately, Il know you
may think it's funny. Perhaps 1
couldn't do anything really important
at first, but II could take a position,
couldn't II"
WHAT" he said. "You haven't had
any experience"
But how do you get experienced"
He shrugged. Her persistence was
disconcerting. well, if you've just got
to have a job, you might try for a
sales girl-something like that. You
got the looks" He turned away, add
ed, over his Shoulder-"But if you take
my advice you'll stick to your club
feets."
But this was the last advice she was
prepared to follow, even if she had
heard it, which she had not. What she
had heard, however, sent her out of
his Office with a definite objective-a
job. Not that she intended to keep it.
She felt M urge for economic indie
pendence, once she had proved her
capacity for it.
1t vas no longer the Psyche nor the
hotel bill that goaded her, but pride
that had yet to know the bitter taste
Of defeat. 1t was pride, nipping her
heels like a relentless pup, that hound
ed her from shop to shop during those
three days.
In those three days, Teddy Lysle
made the acquaintance of emotions and
sensations that had been strangers to
her before. On the fourth morning
she lay in bed thinking about them,
remembering that this was the day
she would be expected home from the
Maddens' house party, desperately
nursing the hope that the mornings
mail would save her yet. Surely one
of the countless pleasant gentlemen
who had promised to ''let her hear
from them" would make good their
promise today.
Since she had spent her last 10 cents
yesterday, there was no necessity for
her to get up until she could be GER
tain, first, that the mail had arrived
and, second, that the kindly young
clerk had relieved the melancholy mar
at the desk. Then, too, whenever she
lifted her head, the small room showed
a ribald tendency to behave itself like
a merry-g0-round.
Nov for Pete's sake" she admon-
ished it when, at 0, she managed to
get to her feet, "be YOURSELF"

The Cabbage Worm

The cabbage worm. n OF the worst
pests Of cabbage, can be controlled II
an arsenical poison is applied as soon
as damage is detected and before the
worms become too abundant. Lead
arsenic calcium arsenate, and Paris
green are effective poisons and may be
applied either Is a spray or as a dust.
Arsenicals are safe to use until the
heads Of the cabbageS are nearly
formed, because the poison disappears
almost entirely within 2 or 3 weeks
after application. All outer leaves
of treated cabbape should be removed
before the cabbages are marketed or
consumed.
