The new reserve law offers
q number Of choices to young
men who face q military obliga-
ton these days.
Whether all the choices will
be open to them depends on such
things as their age at the time
they make their choice, whether
the services want to make the
choices available and quotas on
the number who may make the
choices.
One Of the six choices open
allows q certain number Of
young men between II and 1914
to volunteer for six months
training followed by 7a years
Of reserve training.
This time I'll give you a look
at the remaining five. AS yet,
the details of these programs
have not been worked out. The
best I can do now Is give broad
outlines Of the programs and fill
in later when further details are
available.
Generally. under these choices,
you can satisfy your military
obligation by q period of active
duty or . period in the reserves
or a combination of both.
The active duty time generally
must be spent in the same man
ner as men now spend their time
In the regular armed forces.
Choice to Make
The reserve time may be d.
vided between the ready reserve
and the standby reserve. How this
time is divided and whether you
serve in both depends on the
choice you make as to how you
want to meet your military OBJ
legation.
But no matter what your
choice is you'll be expected to
serve actively in the ready re-
serve for a certain length of
time. During this period, you
face requirement to attend up
to 48 drills year and up to II
days OF summer camp. or. as an

The physicians made their re-
port to the ninth clinical meeting
of the American Medical associ-
alton. They said this illness, which
is relatively common in the field
of lung disorders, causes a con-
siderable amount of disability,
proving fatal on some occasions.
The doctors took the view that
this was a serious report and
that the evidence cleaned in re-

emphysema. All of these patients
had been heavy cigarette smok-
ers, ten of them had cases of
peptic ulcer and two had lung
cancer.
The physicians believe that the
association of smoking with en-
physema could not be explained
on the basis of chance, since a
survey of a similar population
without the disease indicated that
one hundred per cent incidence of
smoking among the forty patients
could not be dissipated.
In other words, the most in

came up with included the sur

WINTER ACCORDING
TO

The sustained cold weather OF
december, which is breaking
records in many parts of the
country, especially in the South
and Southeast and in some areas
OF the West and Southwest. in
dlcates that earlier predictions
that the winter of 1856 would
be the coolest of this century
appear to be significant.
Although the forecasters did
not agree unanimously that this
winter would be the severest in
some decades, some of them were
OF that opinion and the predictions
may turn out to be accurate.
Ihere are those who believe that
the weather is in a trend toward
colder winters and that this n
Will be a continuation of the trend
observed last year and even cold

lore, home-owners would be wise
TO protect pipes, have an ade-
quate supply of fuel and have
their heating equipment in good
condition.
Of course, winter officially
begins on December 21st, even
though the shortest days of the
year are. already upon us. The
technical reason for this is that
the earth still has much heat
stored up from summer and early
fall, which is fast dissipating, and
his is responsible for the bitter
