. PAD INSTRUCTR _ High School Authorities Prob- ably Will Not Replace Lieut. | Day, Resigned. For the first time in years the ‘Washington High School Cadet Corps may be without a paid chief military instructor during the next school Year. The resignation of Lieut. Rich- ard /R. Day, U. S. M. C., military in- structor of the soldier-student or- ®anization since October, 1918, has left this position vacant, and it was learn- ed in_school circles last night that it_probably would not be filled. The burden of instructing the ca- dets next year consequently will fall upon the shoulders of Lieut. Col. Wallace M. Craigie, U. S. A., retired, who has_been detailed by Secretary of War Weeks as instructor of mili- tary science and tactics in the Wash- ington high schopls, and Dr. Wallace M. Yater, physical instructor of the cadet corps. Dr. Yater's time, how- ever, will be taken up in organizing and ‘instructing the proposed medical department of the cadet corps, which will be formed soon after school opens iu September. It the school authorities ultimately decide to fill the vacancy resulting from the resignation of Lieut. Day, they are certain they will be unable to Secure the services of a military mans as capable and well qualified for the work as the marine corps offi- cer, on the salary allowed for the position. Lieut. Day received the pay \ Of a regular elementary school teach- er, $1.200 a year basic, plus the fed- eral bonus of $240 a vear, making his total salary, $1.440. In Dallas, Tex., where Lieut. Day will take up his new duties in September as com- mandint of cadets. he will receive approximately $3,000 a year, and will be given opportunities to increase this amount by giving military In. Structions at ‘the summer school: there. The low salary paid here i one of the principal reasons Lieut. Day resigned his position.

Somo very remarkable tales are told of the wonders of that particular part of Canada, such as permanent ice caves, raspberries, blueberries of huge size in great quantity, and cf displays of the northern light: The camp site is fifty miles from the railroad, in a wilderness where there are meither roads nor vehicles of any kind, and very few people to be found. Most of the party expect to be gone a month. They are C. F. Sudwarth, H. T. Offterdinger, D. G. Pfeiffer, Dr. John Sharp, Charles Rossiter, C. F. Crane, Lewis M. Thaver. Bernard F.

To the Editor of The Star: On page twenty-three, your issue of Thursday, July 21, 1921, by I A i Fleming, are three paragraphs which have today been brought to my at- | tention. They are captioned “It Can- | not Be Done.” The paragraphs fol- lowing the caption are quoted as fol- lows: “Organization of a corporation to : ‘buy stocks and avoid all chances of ! losing in doing so by paying cash therefore is reported. “There are tens of thousands of in- vestors who have bought securitles | for cash and have actual and practical ! knowledge of the fact that no onme can guarantee against loss in security transactions through this method. “The only way to avoid loss in se- curity transactions is to adopt the { advice of an old Wall street sage: ‘Buy ’em low and sell ‘em high.’ Rare judgment is not enough.” I am actively organizing the cor- poration__ undoubtedly ~referred _to | above. Knowing the fairness of The \ Evening Star I am at a loss to under- tand how the statement in the first paragraph came to be made. It does not quote anything that I have said or_have printed. I have said and have had printed this statement, “This institution will conduct its business on a plan which practically eliminates chances of loss.” The plan has been shown to bank-! ers, brokers and business men, who have conceded that the plan does ac- complish an elimination of chances of loss. The plan will enable the corporation to follow the advice of the Wall street sage to “Buy ‘em low and sell ’em high A. M. FISHER.
