The word has gone out in this bu reau that ail officers who have been admtttod to shoulder bars directly from civilian lire mutt now acquaint themselves with other military move ments than those of the swivel chair. So, all the office men who have commissions in the bureau and all that have been promised them as sembled in different parts of the Mall and began their drilling. It was while they were trying to ccunt fours with indifferent success that the above-mentioned private made his critical comment. Some of the office warriors are fat and some are frail, most of them are soft and short of wind. Many of them are "prominent citizens in car riages" in their home towns, who have received their commissions practically as commands to give the Government the benefit of their spe cial or technical knowledge. Few of them ever aspired to military knowl edge or training, but now they are getting it willy-nilly. Along with this innovation came the information that no able-bodied enlisted men will hereafter be used as clerks and messengers, stenog raphers and bookkeepers, but will be sent to the front. It was also stated that all the second lieutenants in the Ordnance Bureau, and there are a heap of them, are to be put through training schools, if competent, and transferred to the .line regiments. The theory is that no young man v, ho is physically capable has any right to wear an officer's uniform and retain a bullet-proof job. The rule is sweeping as to second lieutenants, and it will be applied to higher ranks in all cases where it can be done without injury to the administrative, technical and execu tive functions. Eventually it Is expected that ev ery "slacker" in the different Army service bureaus will be caught and converted into a patriot 100,000 SMITHS IN AIIMY Antl There Arc Millers, Wilsons, O'Briens nnd Browns Galore Washington. —The Army has more then 100,000 "Smiths." 1,500 W.illiam Smiths, 1,000 John Smiths and 200 John A.

These figures on identical tiames were cited by the Bureau of War Risk Insurance as a reason why ap r licants for Government soldiers' in surance, or for allotment and allow ance payments, should sign their full names rather than initials only.

Fires Alarm Clock at Fourth Hubby Detroit, Mich.—William J. Hensel had his wife, Margaret, in police court on a charge of assault and bat tery. "How long have you been mar ried?" Justice Stein asked.

Germans Kill Women to Cause Peace Desire London. —There appears soiree truth ' in a statement by a German aviator recently captured by the Italians, who explained that the real object of Hun air raids on unfortified towns was to force a general longing for peace on the part of the public. "We do not know," said he, "and we do not seek to know, where staff headquarters or military depots are. It is the city and the citizens wo wish to destroy.- Our purpose is to break down the resistance of the enemy country. "When we bombard London, Parts or Fadua. you will well understand that we do not look for military ob jectives. Our only regret is that other cities of yours are so far away from our bases. It is useless, there fore, for you to continue to lament if among the victims there is the inevitable woman and baby. If they cannot take care of themselves so much worse for them." Miss Helen L.
