de WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, MAY 9, 1925 SUMMER CAMPS HALF ENROLLED Big Increase in Applications Over 1924 The Adjutant General of the Army at Washington, D. C., has just released the information that 25,000 formal applica- tions had been received by the Command- ing Generals of the nine Corps Areas on April 20, 1925, for attendance at the 43 camps to be held throughout the United States and Porto Rico for the Citizens' Military Training Camps this summer. This number represents 50 per cent of the number of enrollments de- sired. On the same date last year but 16,000 applications had been received, in- dicating that the privilege of attending these camps and the necessity for making early application, to be sure of a place, is beginning to be more generally appre- ciated by young men and their parents. While the enrollment for the entire United States is 50 per cent of the num- ber desired, in a number of the Corps Areas the percentage of enrollments de- sired is far in excess of this percentage. For the Sixth Corps Area, which in- cludes the states of Illinois, Michigan and Wisconsin, the percentage of en- rollments has reached 78 per cent, and at the rate that applications are reaching headquarters at Chicago the entire num- ee desired will be filled by May 20, Any healthy, normal young man be- tween 17 and 24 years can attend these camps, where the cost of transportation to and from the camp is paid by the gov- ernment, also food, medical attention, uniforms and laundry is provided with- out cost to the young men attending. Col. C. H. Boyden is chairman of the C. M. T. C. committee in Wilmette and will be pleased to confer with boys in regard to applications for the summer camp. He may be reached at Wilmette 483. Maj. T. E. Bullivant is adjutant of the local committee of Reserve Offi- cers and may be reached at Wilmette 2554.

W. Nikart, Chrysler dealer in South Bend, Ind. Last September, a Chrysler roadster was sold to Norman A. Parker of South Bend. After driving it 5,000 miles throughout the United States and Can- ada, he took it to New Zealand. In a letter just received from Mr. Parker, the following sensational news was re- vealed. "I brought it out to New Zealand with me, and it has excited admira- tion wherever I have been. The water you put in the radiator is still there, and I have not so far found it neces- sary to add one drop." Mr. Parker's experience reveals a quality in the Chrysler that has ex- cited the comment of many other Chrysler owners as well. That quality is the efficient cooling system. Extra large water passages com- pletely surround each cylinder and valve of the Chrysler motor. They give a minimum of one-half inch clear wa- ter circulation space between each cylinder.

Consequently, overheating is a nega- tive factor in the Chrysler motor, and a single water supply will go for a long period of time with a minimum of evaporation. Ever since the Chrysler was intro- duced a year ago, owners have report- ed this camel-esque feature. Perhaps the Chrysler stands a good chance of entering the Sahara market and usurping the place now held by the faithful dromedary. XN As "XETRA Matinees 5 Evenings 4'P.

Standing over him with drawn sword the Moorish Com- mander orders him to blow the retreat. Smiling into the face of death the bugler, Anatole Picard, raised the bugle to his lips and blew--not the Retreat--but the Charge!
