With the approach of the 1930 Sum- mer training camps for Reserve officers of the District, those going to the camp will be interested in the monthly active | duty pay they will be entitled to while at camp. The monthly base pay of offi- cers, indicated by grades, Is as follows: Colonel, $333.33: lieutenant _colonel, $201.67; major, $250; captain, $200; first lieutenant, $166, and second lieutenant, $125. Reserve officers are authorized a | mileage allowance of 4 cents per mile | to and from the station to which they | are ordered to active duty for 15 days. | For more than 15 days they are entitled | | to 8 cents per mile. Reserve officers are placed in pay pe- | rlods as follows, with reference to their Second captains, 3rd period; ma- | jors, 4th period: lieutenant coionels, | 5th period, and colonels, 6th period. | An increase of 5 per cent of base pay is authorized for every three years serv- ice, and In this connection Reservists should bear in mind that they are cred- ited with full time for active duty and half time for inactive duty. For in- stance, a 14-day period of active duty counts 14 days of longevity, while 50 weeks or 350 days of inactive status counts 25 weeks or 175 days. The rank of Reserve officers is de- termined by the amount of active duty, and not by the date of commission. For instance, two captains having the same date of commission go to camp July 1, 1930. Capt. A has never been on active duty as a captain, while Capt. B at- tended camp in 1929. The active duty orders will read that Capt. A will rank from July 1, 1930, and Capt. B from June 16, 1930.

One of the greatest menaces to bird life in this country is the alien popula- tlon spreading throughout the rural dis- tricts. - Most of these foreigners come from countries where conservation of wild life is not taught, and they resent any official interference with hunting their meat supply. They are inordi- nately fond of small song birds made into pies. These birds are the best in- sect destroyers, and the ruthl-ss slaugh- ter is having a noticeable effect in the increase of bug pests. Many forest | rangers have been wounded and a num- ber of wardens killed in various States by these poachers. MOTOR OIL. BEST OIL IN THE WORLD" To keep your car in good condition, avoid ha?hazard buying of ol at {irresponsible dealers. Use Autocrat Motor Oil and enjoy the great difference.
