IL APPLY FOR TRAINING
IN C. NJ. T. C. FROM HERE

Eleven Garrett county young men
have made application for enrolment
in this years Citizens Military Train
ing Camps since the opening of the
procurement campaign on February
Is, it was announced yesterday by F..
E. Rathbun, county superintendent Of
Schools, Oakland, chairman of the
county C. NJ. T. C. committee.
The quota for this county is ten
and although the enrolment will con-
tinue, Mr.. Rathbun warned local
youths against delay in filing appli-
cations. The response throughout the
Third Corps Area of which Maryland
is a part has far exceeded the record
of any previous year, indicating that
late applicants may miss the oppor-
tunity of attending camp.
More than II have procured appli-
cation blanks from Superintendent
Rathbun, but not all have been turned
in to the C. M. T. C. headquarters.
Those who have asked for application
blanks are Lee Ashby, Paul Dawson,
Lambert Ramsey, Morgan Adams,
Robert Bowen, Charles Hardesty, Nor
man Serene, Gerald Bradley, Earl G.
Harvey, Arthur Lawton, Jr., Waller
P. Hoye and Humbird Offutt.
"Young men between II and "a of
good character and sound physique are
eligible to apply" the county chair
man said. The Government will furn-
ish railroad fare to and from camp
as well as supply uniforms, laundry
service, good wholesome food and
other accommodations while in camp
without charge.
Four camps are open to Maryland
candidates this year. All Infantry
candidates will train at Fort George
G. Meade, Maryland, where 2,1OO stu
dents, including $50 Signal Corps can
didates will assemble for the largest
camp in the corps area. A limited
number of students who have COM
pleted the first or basic camp may
qualify for attendance at the Field
Artillery camp at Fort Hoyle, Nd, the
Cavalry camp at Fort Myer, Va, or
the Coast Artillery camp at Fort Mon
roe, Va. In addition some Basics with
special aptitude will be accepted for
the Field Artillery and the Signal
Corps camps.
All training camps in the Third
Corps Area, this year, will come under
the control and general direction OF
Major General Paul B. Malone, new
corps area commander, and a strong
and enthusiastic advocate of the value
of these camps in citizenship training.
General Malone served on the General
Staff in the War Department under
Major General Leonard Wood, then
chief of staff, during the formative
period of the first establishment of
Citizens Training Camps in the Unit
ed States and was later recalled from
duty in Hawaii to command the first
Officers Training Camp at the Pre-
sidio of San Francisco.

FIRE ON THEijFARM-


The farmer has a very real interest
in the fire menace. Nearly one-fourth
of the annual national fire loss, or
500, 100000, occurs. ron farms, and
farm fires account for 5000 deaths.
The farm fire victim suffers greater
proportionate loss than the victim of
a city fire. The latter may lose his
home or his place of business, but
rarely both. When the farm home
burns, the fire often wipes out barns
and other buildings, perhaps destroy
ing the development of a lifetime of
work.
The cure for the farm fire is, as in
the city, unremitting care and dill
gence- and better fire fighting facil-
tiles. Progress in this direction has
been made in a number of states.
First-class rural fire departments are
made possible by motorized fire appa-
ratus, good roads and telephones. In
genuity has been shown by rural fire
fighters in overcoming lack Of water,
through the use of windmill tanks,
multiple hose connections and relays
of trucks. Some departments use
chemicals only, which are extremely
effective in fighting the common roof
fires. An Iowa law has empowered
townships to vote tax for the main
tenance of fire protection, either in
dependently or in conjunction with
other communities.
The bulk of states, however, lags
behind in rural fire protection and
there is a general lack of efficient,
modern facilities. AS a result the
farmer bears larger share Of the fire
loss-both in lives and property
than any other classes of citizens.
In Garrett county, where it is still
difficult to travel the unimproved
roads at certain seasons of the year, a
reserve water supply, obtained by
damming stream near the home and
outbuildings, will do much to lessen
the danger TO complete destruction
of property. With water supply of
such nature the DeBerry home, which
was located on Route 81, north of
Oakland, could have been saved with
slight damage, but without it firemen
We're practically helpless.
The adequate development of the
farm fire department-along with the
dissemination of knowledge on how
to prevent fre-offers fertile field
for organizations interested in the
farmers welfare.

Two Kinds of Confusion
BY LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER.

interests. 1t does mean that each ones
task or job is respected. and that each
one goes about his or her own work
without its being encroached upon by
another
When there are young children in a
family they must be guided, and 1t falls
upon the mother, chiefly, to see that
play and occupations dovetail to make
a well rounded day and a sufficiently
long night for the welfare of the mem
bers to be looked out for. The father
helps the mother to direct their ways
to admonish, encourage and rear the
children to become fine citizens. The
children of a well ordered household are
far on the way to become good citizens.
When children begin to have pro-
nounced individualities. and be as
sertive, there is apt to be period OF re-
adjustments, difficult alike for the chill
dren and the parents. At this time
there is apt to be a certain amount OF
home confusion. Nothing seems OF so
much importance to a child at this
stage as the things which concern him.
He is super-sensitive to criticism and
generally resents suggestions, which he
is inclined to believe are adverse TO his
ideas, although they may not be. The
desire to come and go without letting
any one into his plans and to have
company in season and out OF season
causes home confusion.
Hard as it is for parents to tide over
such a time when they delight in a
well ordered home and household, the
fact that this is but passing period is
a soothing thought. During this time,
the Importance of all persons realizing
the rights of every member of the fam
lily, and that others time and work are
equally as valuable as theirs, is en-
phasized.

If the truth we're known, it's probably
Mills who is getting under the sena-

The Secretary has been making trips
to the Capitol lately to give the Senate
Finance Committee his counsel on the
revenue bill which has been drafted to
balance the budget.
On this committee, serving as the
ranking Democrat, is Pat Harrison o.
Mississippi, batter of Republicans. It
was almost inevitable that SO good a
Republican as the Secretary and so
good Democrat as Harrison would
clash sooner or later.
And they did-in such fashion as to
delight those who saw.
Harrison wanted Mills to submit an
administration program for raising
revenue. Mills replied that it had been
done-to the Ways and Means Com
mittee of the House weeks ago-and
limited that the Mississippi Senator was
trying to play politics.
When Harrison kept demanding that

think should be enacted" be given the
committee, Mills looked at him and said
with a laugh:
"Al right, I'll call it the Harrison

Attractive New Type of Scarf
BY MARY MARSHALL.

r TERE'S something really new in
IL the way of a scarf, and as
lovely as 1t is new It is a
H. Il length Of white chiffon edged
with fine lace that any
amateur seamStreSs can make at home.
The scarf is attached to the back of
the collar of a simple afternoon
gown, brought lightly forward with
ends crossed through ring elaborated
with a floral ornament studded with
brilliants.
Ornamented rings of this or similar
sorts are sold at moderate prices at
many Of the stores. If you like, how
ever, you can use a large brooch to
achieve the same effect, placing it a
little to the left of the center of the
neckline SO that the scarf ends will
cross at one side.
To make the scarf you will need
a strip of chiffon about yard in
length and a quarter of a yard in
width. Indent the ends Of the scarf
in fish-tail effect and apply lace about
2 inches wide as shown in the sketch.
Instead of using pure white chiffon
you may prefer lace Of ecru pale pink,
cream or other becoming off-white
shade To wear on a black and white
printed chiffon you might choose a
white scarf with black ring
ornamented with rhinestones. The hat
in that case should be of light weight
black straw or hair with transparent
black brim trimmed with white
gardenias.
On print showing black, white and
pink, the scarf might be Of very pale
pink worn with hat trimmed with
pink roses.

Hello, here comes Mrs. Paddy to join
us. What was your signal for, my

"Old Man Coyote was prowling about

know that you should be on guard and
to let him know that I knew he was

trotted off at once. He knows how use

falls, will be glad to have you help
cut it up. Just you see that our friend

"Oh, I'll keep out of the way. You
may be sure Of that" cried Jerry.
So Paddy went back to work and
Jerry and Mrs. Paddy sat on the edge
Of the pond keeping watch. BY and By
Jerry heard slight cracking sound.
This was followed at once by a loud
thump. Paddy had slapped the ground
hard with his big, fiat tail.
Does that mean danger?" asked
Jerry anNously. preparing to dive into
the water. p
NO and yes" replied Mrs. Paddy.
1T doesn't mean that there is danger

1t is interesting to think Of the
changes which took place during the
life of Queen Victoria. Railroads were
few and far between when she was
a girl, but when she died England was
covered by great railroad network.
The phonograph and the telephone
came into use during the reign of Vic
toria. Balloons we're invented before
she was born, but motor driven, man
carrying airplanes were not invented
until after she died.
Although Victoria was Queen Of Eng

George v has now, it would be a mis-
take to suppose that she was a ruler

other lands.
The laws of England are passed by
Parliament, which is made up Of the
House of Commons and the House OF
Lords. In former times the House of
Lords had much to do with the laws,
but at present the chief power is in
the hands of the House of Commons.
