Sittings began. and the artist en-
tered so heartily into his work that

the fact was announced to him, “do

work?“ ’
"It does not matter at all: the
portrait is finished." answered the
painter.
“Well. sir. this is not business;
we said a hundred guineas and fit-
teen days‘ work. I am quite ready
to stand the price. but you ought
not to spend an hour less upon the
work than we agreed for."
There was no use arguing with
such a man. The painter took his

Today’s Poem
AT THE MID HOUR OF
NIGHT.
At the mid hour of night. when the
stars are weeping, I fly
To the lone vale we loved, when life
shone warm in thine eye;
And I think oft. if spirits can steal
from the regions of air
To revisit past scenes of delight.
thou wilt come to me there,
And tell me our love is remembered.
even in the sky.
Then I sing the wild song 'twas once
such rapture to hear. '
When our voices commingling’
breathed like one on the car;
And. as Echo far off thru the vale
my sad orlson rolls. ‘
I think. 0 my love! ‘tis thy voice
from the Kingdom of Souls
Faintlyanswering still the notes that
once were so dear.
—Thomae Moore.
Mr. Bardo's Successor on Autos.
The idea that motor cars will eup-
plant trains is ludicrous. The rail-
roads in the United States were never
in better functioning order. They
are carrying freight farther than
ever before and cheaper than any-
where else in the world. It is pos-
sible. however. that these little nib-
bles of freight taken by the trucks
may mount up so that the present
overnight rail service may dwindle to
an everyday-days proportion. Think

And while Lilah was worrying
about his whereabouts. \vns walk-

He was walking, because in his
anger he had left the car behind.
He felt the need of physical exer-
cise to overwhelm his mad resent.-
ment.
So at a moment. when Lilah was
needing him. he arrived at Bertha
Benll’s house.
“Headache better?" Bertha ask-
ed. eyeing hlm shrewdly. Cleverly.
she sensed. and then discerned.
that there had been trouble be.

“Er-yes. yea. Much better.

His conscience hurt him as he
walked uncertainty towards her.
Of course. his appearance

“Why. dear!" Slle sighed with
relief. She decided not to tell him
that she had telephoned to Menlmv

“Any excitement?"
She shook her head deprecating-
ly. "‘I'm ready to go home. But

“Yes. I know." he smiled. squeez<

“You'll have to meet the. great

She pointed him out in the cor-

Carmelita shrugged. "Yes. i do

day here cures me of it." She
glanced furtively at Peter. who
was again giving all his attention
to the girls around him.
If Ltlah had had the great gift
of. givining what eyes have to say.
she would have read in Carmelita's
eyes a. tragic story-u realization
that she was growing fat. that she
was slowly losing her hold. upon
Peter: realization that Peter's suc-
cess meant her failure. Peter. rich
and famous. would care no more
for poor little Carmelita. She knew
love of admiration. It was his soul‘s

"Oh. we're leaving tomorrow."
't'So soon? Well. You must

To her own ears her words were
foolish. She wanted to go. She
caught Michael's arm. “Well. good-

They went out into the night.
"I'm so sorry. dear." she said.
“And I'm sorry. too. dear." he

lZENS TRAINING CAMP
By GEN. JOHN J. PERSHING
(Written Exclusively for the Associated Press.)
Article III.
The two great civilian compon-
ents of the Army of the United
States. as created by the National
Defense Act of 1.20. are the Na-
tional Guard and Organized Re-
serves. These are the second and
third lines—and the bulk~ot our
defenses. The Organized Reserves.
with the Officers' Reserve Corps and
the Enlisted Reserve Corps are new.
In a sense even the National Guard‘
as it exists today is new. The
World War changed its character.
The National Guard is now or-
ganised into eighteen Infantry di-
visions. four Cavalry divisions and
certain additional companies most-
ly Coast Artillery. The Guard still
has its dual capacity—belonging to
the stats normally find to the Na-
tional Government only in abnormal
times or emergencies. The' World
War was the last of these. Because
of its organisation. the National
Guard w'lll be,capable of real and al-
most immediate national use when
needed. It was never more effi-
cient than at present and never
such a strong element of national
defense .u it is today. The states
are profiting from this new effici-
ency since the World War. Intern-
al disorders have been few and far
between. In the few instances that
have occurred. thesquadrons have
been masters of the situation. The
Regular Army has been sent to

one state where there was no Gu _. '
the National Guard is 180.636 of-
ticers and men. More than 160,
000 of these will- spend two weeks
in field training this summer. The
Regular Army assigns officers and
enlisted men to the National Guard
as instructordnspector. mfore the
World. War these usually acted in
their inspector capacity. Now they
are acting mostly as instructors.
The relations between the Regular
Army and the National Guard are
most harmonious and helpful to
both.
The National Guard will; devote
its attention this summer. as dur-
ing the last three. to the training of
small- units. Such training is basic
and must needs be thorough. There
will be no training of units'larger
than the battalion. The National
Guard training system is progres-
snd going up through the
section. platoon and
the battalion. Every effort is ade
to'accomplish as much trainin as
possible during the winter months.
in order that the two Weeks in camp
may be given over to field exercises.
This avoids duplication. wasted time
and means a general speeding up of
training. Target practice was com-
pleted} by most units during the
spring. These will not need to
spend any of their valuable time in
the field on this time-consuming es-
sential -'

be division. some brigadr. and some

camp will be the brigade. In so
tsr‘us practical all National Guard
troops will be trained in their own
states at their own camps. The
only exception to this will be the
Guards of two or more states joined
together to form their own division-
al orannizations.
The. Reserve officers. who have
been assigned to the Regular Army
and National Guard for war-time
expansion will train. in so far as
practical. with the organizations to
which they are now assigned. This
includes those who have been ae-
signed to the War-“Department Gen-
eral Stuff and branches.
Thorn assigned to the many units
of the Organized Reselves are to be
givtll rcttve duty training under the
new War Department plan of unit
training. The main objective of this
plan is the development of teams
capable of expanding and training
the skeleton organisations of the
Organized Reserves. The first step
is to develop competent leaders. that;
is. officers and noncommlseioned
officers.
During this summer approximate-
iy 460 different Organized Reserves
teams. varying in size from the of-
ficer complement of a company to
that of a regiment will be called to
duty for_two weeks of unit train-
ing. Several training methods will
be employed. For actual command
and combat training officers of a
Reserve unit will be superimposed
on a Regular Army organization of
the same arm. Each Reserve 11-.
ricer will understudy a Regder
Army officer. During the last week-
the Reserve oflicers will be given an
opportunity to command Regular
Army companies. battalions and re-
giments. '
For actual mobilization training.
one Reserve regiment of each sp-
a. Citizen‘s Military Training Camp
propriate branch will be utilized at
in each of the nine corps areas. The
first week will consist of a refresher
course. and the second will be de-
voted to the actual work of induc-
ing our boys into organizations and
giving them preliminary instruction.
The Organized Reserves have been
formed into the skeletons of twenty-
seven Infantry and six Covalryldl-
visions and in addition have been
assigned most of the corps organi-
zations. Together with thegReguler
Army and the National Guard divi-
sions. these- complete our new It:
field army system of defense—the
effort a major. emergency would
call forth. ~-‘
The Reserve organizations have
been distributed over the United
States according to population. They
exist tbday only in skeleton form
with the officers. and, in a few in-
stances, the noncommissloned of-
ficers assigned. The full enlisted
strength will have to be inducted
the emergency is upon us. the young
into the service and trained after
then of each communltv rallying to
the organization allocated to their
neighborhood. '
There is difference between the
Reserve Odicers' Corps and the‘ Dr-
ganized Reserves. which-is not gen-
erally understood. The Reserve 0f-
flcers' Corps is a. great pool which in
an emergency will supply officers to
the Regular Army and National
Guard as well (as to the ’Orgaaiaed
Reserves. Some of these otfcere are
npw .gglgned to Regular Arm! and
National Guard units. The Enlisted
Regen’e Corps will be a similar pool
when it is develom- -
Approximately 17.000 Reserve Of-
ficers. or approximately one-sixth of
the total number will receive two
weeks of training this summer.
Still another method will be that
or local unit and combined unit

or smaller organisation will . bio

Even deaf ears provide no immu-
nity sometimes against the appeals
.of the seller of stocks that glitter
but. are not gold. They can be made
to “beer" with the eye. to be con-
vinced by silent arguments that fire
the imagination quite as effectively
as the spoken word. This practice
was followed in a Western state.
where a special campaign of un-
sound~etock selling was carried on
among deaf people by salesmen es-
pecially chosen for the purpose.
"The De Ir-company gathered in
several men who. were acquainted
with the sign language." wrote a
deaf man living in a fairly large
community. “and sent them’all over
the state to sell their stock to deaf
people. In my case they sent Mr.
L—. of Detroit. ' ° ' and he said he
was sure we would get dividends in
a year after we bought and that he
would see that the company treated
all. deaf people right. He was so
sincere ‘ ‘ ’. The money was sup-
posed to go into the building of a
warehouse.- They built it. and I
think no deaf people should claim
it. .
‘;The. T— (name bf a city) deaf
people were hardest hit. because
some invested over a. thousand dol-
lars. Those at A—-—’ (another city)
were hit. too.
"The stockholders are mostly deaf
people who put their savings in af-
ter they were assured by men who
were acquainted with the sign lan-
guage that they would look after
our shares for us so they would not
be lost. Mr. Ir— is in New York
some place and is quite wealthy.
"I am a hard working man and I
did not make that 8500 in a day.
The salesmen ° ‘ ' were so sincere
that several deaf people even mort~
gaged their homes in order to in-
vest. Of course. they were prom-
ised big dividends. or bonuses. It
took them a. long time to get me to
invest. They stayed in the city sev-
eral days and dogged me around. I
have since had several letters from
the company trying to get me to
sign a paper requesting me to mark
my name off their stockholders' list.
It looks like they want to drop all
deaf people out after they got their
money."
Here were combined the line kof
large profits and the arts of persuaa‘
sive salesmanship. ,

In the first the driver's attention
was distracted by a passenger's re-

confused in traffic because he felt
obliged to reply to a. puenger‘s spe-

because singing passengers drowned

VERA CRUZ. July 16.—A claim
for 1.845.000 pesos (normally about
$822,600.00) for damages incurred
during the American occupation in

Vera Cruz State'Departmeut jointly
with the~municipallty of this city.

During the past year. 16.925 Re-
serveofficers and 541 enlisted Re-
servists were enrolled in our Army
Correspondence Courses. This num-
her is greater than the combined
student bodies of Harvard. Yale.
Cornell. Princeton and Brown Unl-
versiiies. This military extension
department. has as many students as
the combined correspondence study
departments of the Universities of
Wisconsin. Chicago, California.
Iowa. Minnesota. and Utah.
During the past winter and spring
weekly and iii-weekly meetings were
held all over the country at which
Records officers gathered in groups
from ten to five hundred for study.
It is dimcult to estimate the great
amount of time that is now being
given to military study by Reserve
omcerl while on an inactive duty
status. This. to my mind. is most
encouraging and promising. It
means that our citizen army idea is
practical. as well as economical. It
is indicative of the new concept of
