478 TO BE ENSIGNS cLarge Class Will Be Graduated at Annapolis. Naval Academy Will. Revel In “Jung Week” First Time in Three Years. 3 i (& - Annapolis, Md.—The fact that but } ‘e member of the First, or graduating 188 of the Naval academy was de- jclent in scholastic work qQuring the cerm just closed insures that the nume ber of graduates will be 478, unless i omething unexpected happens. 7. | It-Is seldom that a midshipman who f ~aches his final term drops by the wayside. The class is larger by 50 iper cent than the largest class which ghas preceded it at the Naval academy 0 (-uud nearly three times as large as the ' nmormal class of recent years. - With slightly more than 8,000 regue lar officers in \the service when the United States entered the war, the commissioning of nearly 500 ensigns will mean that officers can he spared to carry out necessary steps in the service, . Young officers will be released for post-graduate work at the Naval acad- emy and many temporary officers will be returned to civil life or to the «Brades they previously occupied in the Service, The graduation of this class will mark the restoration of “June week,” | the commencement period at the Naval { academy, to the brilliancy and interest & of former years, but greatly increased in every way. ! “June week” has heen a 1ather "' somber affair for the last two years. Graduation was a serious business, as the graduates were going out to active duty with the fleet under war time con- ditions. There was none of the usual + social ghyeties, and the ceremonies and éxercises were rediiced to a mini- mum, 3 . 'The restrictions placed upon the vis- i {ts of the public to naval stations pre- vented the assemblage of the wusual § great crowd, and altogether there was little of the gayety and interest of ‘.1ormer years. ™" ~'Next June all of these things will e back again, but with an-increased interest in keceping with the larger class and the growth of popular at-' tentlon to everything connected with the Naval academy. For a week there will be a programme of drills and ex- ercises, interspersed with gay social events and ending with the presentn- tion to the graduates of the diplomas which mean commissions as ensigns COL.

Edison, who Invented the phonograph 42 years ago, has for the first time consented to have his own volce recorded on a phonograph rec- ord. The reproduction, which is on the back of a record containing the national anthems of our allles, was heard recently for the first time in the Edizon laboratory at Orange, N. J. Mr. Edison celebrated his 72nd birth- day on February 11. The talk, which: is Mr. Edison's first comment about the war since America entered the fight, follows: “Our boys made good in France.’ The word ‘American’ has a new mean- ing in Kurope. Our soldiers have made {t__ mean courage, generosity, self- restraint and modesty. We are proud of the North Americans who risked their lives for the liberty of the world, but we must-not forget, and we must not permit demagogues to belittle tl_le part played by our gallant allies, Thelr casualty lsts tell the-story. “However proud we may be of our own achlevements, let us remember al- ways that the war could not have been won If the Belgians, British, French and Italians had not fought like bull- dogs in the face of overwhelming odds. The great war will live vividly in the minds of Americans for the next 100 years. I hope that when we dp reverence to the memory of our brave boys who fell in France we shall not forget their brothers in arms who wore the uniforms of our allies, “I believe that the natfonal airs of France, Great Britaln, Italy and Bel- gium should for all time to come he as familiar to us as our own ‘Star- Spangled Banner,”"” An astronomer reports that his business is looking up.

I know of nothing that will give such prompt relief as Charnberlain’s Cough Remedy, for when it is taken the pain in the chest disappears, the fever sub- sides and the whole body becomes more comfortable. Then again, the after effe@s of Influenza are often even more distressing than the disease itself, but they can be avoided if you use Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy Though the greatest danger from chis disease is Pneumonia, I have never known a single case of Influenza to result in it when Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy was freely given. The persistent cough that frequently follows Influenza can be relieved by Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy, and should not be allowed to run on until it becomes troublesome.” % [ HinnpunNnT R RN Rannnnn The Pioneer Want Ads Bring Results WEHnnnnnnnnnn s | | / / Sure, they’re mild!
