Mr. Duval said that of course the "real business" of this and every meeting is "the winning of the war" and that he naturally felt that the pledging of Marion county's quota for the war savings stamps is just the biggest business in the county right now. Mr. Duval said that he felt that the merchants of the county are in a better position to educate tho people of their respective neighbor hoods to the patriotic necessity of do ing their full share in the purchasing of war savings stamps tftan any other class, as they come into almost daily contact with them if they themselves get posted on all these various pat patriotic riotic patriotic and conservation measures.

Mr. Brown then made a short speech, saying that he considers every part of the government's work just as necessary as every other part. That this is "our" war and he feels very optimistic that the merchants of Mar Marion ion Marion county are going to do their full share along every line asked them by the government. Mr. Brown especially stressed to the merchants their duty in not only following all the rules for food" con conservation servation conservation asked of them, but also to constitute themselves "their brother's keeper" and to see that their neigh neighbors bors neighbors are also hewing to the line and if not to report all violations to! the county food administrator so' that these violations can be investigated.

Mrs. Hocker suggested that' the members of the association wage a vigorous campaign against rats, as it i3 said these pests eat up annually the earnings of 250,000 men. She asked the merchants if the women of their neighborhood were, co-operating" with them in their endeavors to live'-up strictly to the food conservation rules.

Mr. C. W.

Almost every army, since the dawn of history, has been cursed with fav favoritism. oritism. favoritism. Incompetent men have been put in command of soldiers as good or better than themselves because they had influence behind them, and this pernicious practice has wrecked many a nation. The American army has suffered somewhat from this eviL In the army itself, the merit system' has strictly prevailed, but our system of govern government ment government has enabled politicians to some sometimes times sometimes give a man a post or a promo promotion tion promotion that he did not deserve. The fault, however, seems pretty well eliminated from the great army that is fighting the present war. The merit system seems in full sway. It is not only in the officers'; training camps that men have had to work for their commissions, but when' they went into the army they had to work to hold them. And the national guard officers and even those of the regular army, with years of experience be behind hind behind them, have to work constantly and intelligently to keep up with the procession. This is making our army vastly efficient, it is also giving the people the greater confidence in it. The letter to Senator Fletcher is as follows: ' War Department The Adjutant General's Office Washington, June 18, 1918. Hon. Duncan U. Fletcher, United States Senate. My dear Senator: Referring to your letter of June 15, 1918, enclosing a copy of, one from Mr. cashier, Bank of , Florida., who desires an appointment as an officer, I have the honor to inform you that appointments jto the line (infantry, cavalry, field artillery and coast ar artillery tillery artillery ) of the army are made only through training camps. A memor andum concerning the camp which began May 15, is placed herewith. It will be noted that the great majority of those admitted are enlisted men. It is not believed that there will be any radical change from this policy. Therefore, under ; the present condi conditions tions conditions it appears that the only chance for Mr. to secure such ap pointment m the army, is to enlist and compete for it on the same basis as other enlisted men. Vacancies in the several staff sec tions (quartermaster, ordnance, sig nal, etc.) are practically closed to civilians of the draft age unless such civilians possess exceptional qualifica tions not readily available in any ap plicant outside the draft age. In view of this, there appears to be but slight opportunity for Mr. s appoint appointment ment appointment to a staff section at the present time. However, if he desires, he may submit a letter, giving data and place of birth and showing m detail his education, training and experience both civil and military. This latter may be addressed to the chief of ord nance', to the quartermaster general and to the chief signal officer who will advise him fully concerning appoint ments in their sections.
