End of Summer.
The season, like romance, rolls

do a few summery things in a

will make you more youthful and
charming than many a more or

charming). A good suggestion
might be to cut a carbon copy,
while you're about it, in sheer
wool with long sleeves. Then
there'l be nothing to worry about
when cool evening happens
along.

AS revealed in official quarters,
the program would hinge princi-

at the Naval Academy as a basis
for calculating seniority and re-
tirement pay The law setting up
the present system was passed in
1913 and has been effective for all
naval officers from the Annapolis
class of 1917 to date.
Promotions Explained
Navy men explain that ensign
commissions are made permanent
on the satisfactory completion Of
a tWoyear probationary period fol

slonal examinations are Satisfac-

ant is scheduled three years after
graduation.
Little difficulty is experienced
in the first upward step, Navy
records revealing that only about
per cent of the junior lieuten-
ants fail of promotion to lieuten-
ant, senior grade. The step from
lieutenant to lieutenant COM
mander is regarded as serious Sc

years of service, the officers must
be made flag officers or retired

Calculations by the Navy De

of the Annapolis graduates the
chance to eventually become flag
officers.
If, after seven or IA years of
service, officers are not selected
for promotion, they are retained
for seven more years, then retired
