Recruits Navy Heads Place Drive for up to Local Board North shore towns have recently been taking much interest in the work of the Evanston Naval Enlist- ment committee, and it has offered the use of the somewhat expensive machinery of enlistment which maintains to aid in enlistment: in Wil- mette, Kenilworth, Winnetka or Glencoe and to help in any way in which it can, to direct the attention of possible recruits to the advantages offered in the navy. Captain W. A. Moffett, command- ant at the Great Lakes Training sta- tion, impressed upon a body of north shore citizens the great and immedi- ate need of men to man the ships that were waiting to be sent to sea duty until they could get enough men. He showed them that this need was of the hour and minute, not next week or next month. The United States navy had undertaken the big job of policing Atlantic nd its destroyers. were even then chasing German in the North sea. Met the Emergency. It was explained that the govern- ment the the ocean submarines had neither recruiting of- | ficers nor the money appropriated to pay them, yet they needed all the re- cruits they could get at once. In this emergency a little group of patriotic citizens recruiting office at their own expense and lost no time opened a | in enlisting recruits and sending them at once to the Great Lakes station. | They contributed and are contsibut- ing both time and money in most generous quantities, as their share of the war work. Captain Moffett not only approved of the work of this Evanston commit- tee but has extolled it very highly and held it up as an example for other communities to follow. As a result of a little more than four weeks' work the records of the Great Lakes station credit Fvanston with sending them upwards of 150 recruits, the largest percentage, according to pop- ulation, that has been received from any station. Evanston the First. Secretary of the Navy Josephus Daniels has not only given his of- ficial approval to this work, but it has been intimated that the Evanston plan may be adopted the country over as the one best solving the re- cruiting question. Secretary Hutton of the Evanston committee, just back from the east, says that there the fame of the' Evanston station has spread, and it has been. given the credit of being the first to start a movement that may extend all over the country, for the need of men in the navy is still very great. The conscription bill does not ap-- ply to the navy and its recruits are all volunteers. Enough have been en- listed and trained to send out the battleships and destroyers, but still more are needed for the regular navy and when that demand is met will be it | Camp Chatter North Shore men enjoy soldier's life at Fort Sheridan Barracks. HE men ficers, reserve corps will re- ceive $100 a month during their training, according to the pro- visions army appropriation serving in the of- of the bill passed by the senate. Major Fox, formerly an astronomy professor at' Northwestern univer- sity, is teaching his squad mates in Company 3 the laws of gravitation and trigonometry to make them ex- pert long distance shots. On the door of Company 6 canton- ment some comfortable gent posted the following advertisement : "Stove heat inside, 10 cents.. Sun- days and holidays, 25 cents." All men with complete uniforms were ordered to wear them into town Saturday and Sunday. No man in nondescript costume was permitted to leave the camp. Captain A. M. Madison lectured his men as follows: "Tell the man who wants to borrow money to right about face and keep on going." An announcement was made that only regular army officers may wear the black silk tie in camp. 'Thirteen men are in the hospital, all with minor afflictions, such as colds, sore throat and used-up feet. needed to man the guns on the big merchant fleet and possibly equip it with sailors as well. A call has been authorized for 100,000 more men, and when those have been enrolled they will need as many more. : Some Items of Expense. - The Evanston committee maintains a recruiting officer and a publicity man, who give all their time to its work, furnishes board and mainte- nance to a squad of jackies assigned to this station who are utilized as a constant advertisement of the navy. It advertises in dozens of different ways, pays big printing bills, charters cars on the electric road to take prospective recruits to the Great Lakes station on trips of inspection, and does so many things to stimulate the game that Mr. Hutton said neither the New York nor Boston of- fices could give him any pointers on more things of that sort.. In the game to stay, the small num- ber who have, up to this time, borne all the expense, have just called upon a larger number of citizens to help bear this burden, which seems to be as well justified as any war work that done. The question is frequently asked, Why does not the it bear this expense? It does not because, with all the things it has to 'do, it has not is now being governme got around to it and may not for six months or a year, while the need for men in the navy is immediate and pressing. To Train 25,000. At the Great Lakes station there are now 8000 recruits being put through their four months' training. Captain Moffett expects to have 25, 000 there before the summer ends, and they will build big barracks for them. Chicago has just started in the same work, modeling it in every particular after that of Evanston. It is the hope that much may be done in the north shore towns. Ev- anston has offered all the facilities for enrolling the men after they have signified an intention to enlist. Ev- dentists and oculists do the same, with the result that recruits going through this office are almost sure of acceptance, while the percentage of acceptances. from the average re- cruiting station is only one in six. What One May Gain. The navy offers the recruit the chance to learn any one of fifty dif- ferent trades, and good pay while learming. It is the best school in the world, fits a young man for any posi- tion in life, sets him up in health and strength, teaches him a lot of things he could not learn otherwise. It feeds him well, helps him to save his money and better himself at the same time and gives exactly the same op- portunities to advance that may be had in commercial or professional life. Whether the recruit sticks to it and advances or leaves it with a good education, the resutl is bene- ficial. A general order has been issued forbidding smoking after taps. Chicago Boy Scouts will replace Winnetka and Lake Forest Scouts on duty as orderlies tomorrow. Each troop will stay in camp two weeks. The rookies are fast learning the bugle calls. At least they are now able to tell when "mess" is blown. The first straw hat of the season has made its appearance on the reservation. A belated rookie wore it. = WILMETTE WRITER WINS HARRIS POLITICAL PRIZE Lysle Smith Given Essay Honors with Paper on Legislatures. C. Lysle Smith, son of Dr. and Mrs. C. G.

NEW TRIER- LOSES 1917 SUBURBAN LEAGUE FLAG Committee Rules Hessler Out of Amateur Ranks and Golfers Lose Championship. New Trier High school lost the Suburban league golf championship by one point because one of its play- ers was ruled ineligible. Hessler's scores for the three league. matches were thrown out and another boy's substituted. The change raised the New Trier total from 1,427 to 1,459. Thornton Township High, with 1,458 points, was awarded the title and trophy at a meeting in the City club last night. La Grange finished third with 1475; University High fourth, 1,486, and Bloom last, 1,674. Individual honors went to George Davis of Thornton, whose cards read 77--97--85. Hessler was played by New Trier merely to test the prep league's defi- nition of "amateur." He acted as caddy last year when over 16 years old, and under the rules of the West- ern Golf association is rated a pro- fessional. The high school league played tinder W. G. A. rules and de- cided to stand by the W. G. A. ruling in Hessler' scase. EE |S ARS F Subscribe.

VATTMAN, veteran army chaplain of Wilmette, who has ocered his services to the government has been accepted as chaplain for the Catholic boys in training with the of- ficers' training corps at Fort Sheri- dan. : Colonel Nicholson has given him as his quarters a suit of rooms over the gymnasium and north shore church- men took it upon themselves to dec- orate and place it in proper order. The major is eighty years old this month. But he appears much young- er, and is anxious for active service. He has been connected with the army since the days of the Civil war and has not missed a campaign in which the United States army has partici- pated since that time. An altar was put in place for the services last Sunday and the sermon was delivered by Father Sherman, son of General Sherman of Civil war fame. A number of local Catholics motored to the first service Sunday morning. EERE Ads Give News. 1 Bg Read 'em.
