Gen W. Coe, chief of Coast Artillery, gov erning the examination of enlisted men for appointment as assistant en gineer, Army Mine Planter Service, was approved this week by the War | Department. To meet the service re- | quirements of this examination, the candidate must be an enlisted man of the Coast Artillery C nd must have had at least two years' experi ence in the en partment of an Army mine pl rbor boat, one year of which - been as an oiler, or on duties normally performed by an oiler. The scope of the exam- ination will include the following sub- jects: Arithmetic. marine engineering {theoretical and practical), machine shop practice (theoretical cal), elementary electri and practical), and internal com tion engines (theoretical and practical) In the past it has required of candidates for appointment as warrant officers, Army Mine Plante in grades of second mate and assistant | engincer, to establish their ility for appointment by compl the deck or marine engineering at | the Coast Artillery School, as pre scribed in Army Regulations 350-45 These cour were suspended in and re-establishment for pose uring the compara v eligibles necessary under requirements is inadvisable due to the fact that such action would require a considerable increase in in- ructor personnel and overhead at the school and the supply of expensive | marine material and equipment, which fs not available at the present time. 1t is proposed in the future that eligi bles for appointment as second mates and assistant engineers will be secured through the medium of competitive examinations.

In| the event that the Navy Department does not join with the War Depart- ment in_sending these recommenda- | to Congress, the probabilities are that he naval establishment will file | the same proposals with both the Sen. ate and House naval affairs committee. | he two proposals are as follows: | 1. Revocation of laws prohibiting | the President from ordering any Army | or Navy officer to duties involving flying. In the Army appropriation act of 1914, there is a provision which de- | bars officers not detailed to aviation or who are not on duty as flying ca- dets, from heing assigned to flying | duty under competent orders. Both | the military and naval establishments, it is understood, will request Congress to pass legislation which will state in unmistakable language the procedure | to be followed in ordering officers to | fiving duty. : 2.

It is insisted in certain quarters that with the new aviation policy making all officer fliers, the cost of providing flying pay the military and naval establish nents would be prohibitive. It is als pointed out by this group t with the expansion of the Air Service in both the Army and Navy, there is no need for providing extra pay for fly ing duty On the other hand, officers who are now detailed in both air forces, de clare that taking instruction and mak ing a limited number of flights, which 1 be autho under the new poli differs greatly from an_officer regularly detailed to the Air Service. Those officers taking the lim. 1 course, it is admitted by this sroup of officers, would not really be entitled to extra flying pay.

LONDON, June 12.—Conkervative English people are adopting Ammerican ideas and habits to a greater extent than the average Englishman cares openly to admit. The most recent case, of King George wearing big tortoise-shell glasses, has been followed by several English hostesses in fash ionable London, following the example of a prominent American who enter- tained 60 couples to dinner at small tables, while a cabaret entertainment of the most expensive and up-to-date nature went on. Evening parties with mu: comparatively rare events, though ne of the more of ‘London's hostesses are trying tc introduce them, the American ides of a cabaret dinner is likely to out strip them and people generally wel come the novelty.

TRIPLE FUGUE. By Osbert Sitwell, New York: George H. Doran Co. GROUP of short stories by an au thor who is young and clever, with the gift of words and a large round- aboutness of approach upon his theme which is, invariably, the human as a poor thing, defeated always, either-by outer forces around him or personal inadequacy within.
