MARINES OBSERVE
 FOURTH OF JULY
Independence Day Marks Anniversary of Interest-
 . ing Events

Sergeant Maxwell P. Dickerson, ranking officer of the local marine recruiting station in the post office recalled today, in connection with the forthcoming celebration of 1n- dependence Day, the long tradition, of service to which his branch of the service can point. The first Marine Corps was organized, as a matter of fact, eight months before the Declaration of Independence was signed, and marines saw active duty all through our Revolutionary war.
 From the early days of the re- public to the present time, he said, the marines have always been on hand to serve their country. A rna- rine detachment has been on duty in the national capitol for the last 140 years, and on occasions of national importance, like the fourth of July, these units have paraded before every president from Thomas Jefferson to Franklin Roosevelt.
 One of the most glorious Fourths the marines can recall, Sergeant Dickerson pointed out, was that of 1898, during the Spanish American war, when Admiral Sampson made the American nation Fourth of July present of the whole Cervera's fleet.
 The local recruiter also recalled the great celebration of the Fourth which took place in Paris in 1918. In preparation for tl1is event, a whole detachment of marines was recalled from the front, though un- der the impression that they were volunteering for especially hazardous duty; great indeed was their sur- prise when they received orders to return to Paris for 8 Fourth of July paradel
 The various exploits of the ma rines in Nhe front lines of battle during the World War are we'll remembered. The French themselves have paid tribute to the valor of the 'leathernecks" by remaining Belleau Wood the "Bois de Ia Bri- gade de Marine"

an air corps flight surgeon, will be in command of the travelling board.
 There are in Connecticut many men with two or more years of col- lege education who thereby meet the air corps mental requirements and are exempt from examination. Some of these have asked for phy- sical examinations during the visit of the travelling board. MT. Murphy has been informed by the corps area headquarters that the travel ing board is making its visit pri- marily for the convenience of the refresher course candidates but otla- CTS will be examined to the extent that time permits. Those who are not members of such courses must secure appointments through the local flying cadet committee chair men. In Hartford these appoint ments will be made through MT. Murphy'S office at Hartford.

dwellings will be heated by an au- tomatically controlled circulation of air.
 Every attempt will be made to make the individual houses as dis tinctive as possible. In contrast to the uniform rows of drab little dwellings that so often comprise the only home of factory workers, these houses will offer considerable variety. Roofs of five different shades will be used, for example, to prevent a gloomy monotony.
 The completed buildings will be owned by the government, and will be rented to men employed in To- cal industries associated with the work of national defense. This plan will be followed for the duration of the national production emergency.
