BIRTH RECORDS
 VALUED HIGHLY
Correct Certificates Ne. cessary to Avoid Legal
 Complications Later

With the increasing importance attached to the registration of the vital events of life = birth, lrlar- riage and death the proper and correct recording of the names of individuals in their birth certiti- cates and the use of that name aS recorded on all legal documents throughout life cannot be overem. phasized, the State Department of Health said in its weekly bulletin.
 This legal Identification is of such importance that 1t is necessary to petition the superior court, "pray- ing" for a change of name before 1t is safe for any individual to as" surt1e, another name for legal pur- poses, the bulletin said.
 Some 90 or more years ago, only the legal surname of the mother of child was recorded, but since the family surname does not sufficient- ly identify a person, the state has been striving for many years to have complete records. The state Is anxious that children be named as the parents wish, but also that the full, legal names be on record. If given names are not reported on birth certificates, all registrars are supplied with return postal cards" which are sent to parents, 50 that given names may be supplied. In addition, the state sends each mother Q certificate of birth TOT her child and by this means the cor. rect spelling is verified. This name will admit to scheel, and is the name that should always be erf1- ployed on legal documents.
 Since last January l, when the new marriage law went into effect, the legal names have taken on double importance, first, since the laboratory report of the blood test must contain the exact name Of tho applicant; and, secondly, because this same and exact name must ap. pear in the marriage license when it has been issued. Any difference in spelling of names as given In the two portions of the laboratory re- port will require the registrar to ask for another report. He has no ai- ternative. It Is natural that such a rejection by the registrar will Do Irritating to the physician, but even more 50 to the applicant who must make second call to get his labor. atory report, and again to present 1t to the registrar. If your name w John Doe, and you claim to be John Dough, you will have to prove itI the bulletin stated.

Winning the gratitude or their country In scores of campaigns and wars, the United States Marines will pause on November 10 to cele- brate their i8ist birthday. Without pomp or pageantry, com- manding officers will read a tradi- tional birthday greeting to their respective commands, and the ma rines will then resume their duties for the day.
 Since November. 10, i775, long be- fore the nation had taken definite shape, these stalwart nephows of Uncle Sam have marched down the years to perform heroically their duty to tho nation.
 While reviewing their l8i years of service to the colonies and the states, the development and prog fess of tho nation passes by in . kaleidoscopic review of historical facts.
 When the first flames of tho Revolution began to scar their way along tho Atlantic seaboard, the newly convened Continental Con- gress authorized the organization of two battaiions of marines to assist the struggling colonies in their fight for freedom.
 k Instead of becoming afhliated with the Continental Army, how- ever, the marines first were des- tined to serve with the Navy. It happened like this:
 FA-a .ainalt., mM kAA n vSa VsAssval laVa Ia the Colonies was held by the Brit ish, leaving General Washington precious little with which to wage war. Realizing his predicament, the Father of our Country sent out hurried call to Congress. Congress responded by calling in Esek Hopkins, first commanding ofilcer of the new Colonial navy, and Samuel Nicholas, captain of the Marines. Between them these two officers iaid elaborate plans an epochal project in the history of the new nation.
 Using information gathered from seafaring men and friends of the Cause" these two able leaders learned that enemy ships were raising havoc along the coast of Virginia. It was also learned that the British held a large supply of ammunition and powder on New Providence Island, in the Bahamas.
 Failing to find any enemy fri- gates, 1t was toward this British stronghold that the Colonial navy sailed early in IT'S, with the ma- rines aboard as a cooperative land force. Here then is the beginning of the combined operations of the navy and marine corps, which have since developed into one of Amer icas' prime defensive factors. i Due to adverse weather condi- tions which piled the decks of the small American fleet high with fgreen water, and compelled two vessels to turn back, the squadron did not reach New Providence until March of that year.

Marines To Observe
 161st Birthday Soon

 ism Marks Years of Service to Nation

:, quickly effecting Q landing with two borrowed sloops, Captain Mich. olas led his force of marines and sailors up the narrow sandy beach toward Fort Montague, Q bleak pro- montory some distance from Nas- sau, the principal city on the island.
 Fully expecting trouble, Captain Nicholas Tod his men with their muskets unslung and ready for ac- ton. Strange to relate, there was no Interference from tho fort with the exception of three cannon balls which sailed over tho advancing party and fell into the seq. Cap- turing Fort Montague, the Amer jeans sleps In the fort that night and advanced into Nassau the next morning.
 Soon afterward the American squadron sailed for home, loaded to the gunwales with military supplies screly needed for tho cause of tho Colonies. Thus ended the first for- eign expedition of Q colonial fight- ing force, following our break with Great Britain. '
 A short while later Captain Nicholas offered his marines to Washington for duty in the gener- als New Jersey campaigns, where they fought with distinction ct Trenton and Princeton.
 They soon returned to the sea, and in l770, with John Paul Jones, the marines aboard the Bon Homme Richard assisted in the dee feat of the Serapis. They fought on both land and sea in our War with Tripoli, where they mounted camels to cross the Libyan desert in Q surprise attack on Derne. It was in this foreign engagement that they first hauled up Old Glory over an Old World fortress. Only a few years after the Tripolitan adventure, England be- gan to impress American seanen into the British naval service. This led to open hostilities and the War of 1872, during which the marines fought courageously on both land and sea.
 Down through the pages of his- tory, from those ornately dressed sons of battle to the present gen. eration, marines have earned glori- ously the right to the motto, Sem per Fidelis, which means Always faithful"
 When the odds have been tre- mendously against them they have kept the faith of those liberty loving sons of the Revolution, who first inscribed their names on the pages of national history.
 There is little need to recount the battles in which the leather necks participated, or recall then pursuit of peace in many hot-beds of revolution.
 It is far easier to remember that there never has been c fight in which this country has participated that the marines did not fling the red badge of courage straight into the face os the enemy.

Several other nobles in the party found themselves likewise without money. Mimicking the manner and favorable expletive of the king, Nell exclaimed odds fishl What q con1- pany have I got into"
 Never wasteful of the kings money, never disloyal to his interes- est, Nell was equally faithful to early friends and associates. One day an old soldier stopped her car. riage and asked for money.
