GAGER Funeral Director and Embalmer Promptserviceday or night Lady Assistan: el 842-2 Five Companies Leave Today Training at Massapeag. The real active life of the 325 cadets of the U. S. Junfor Naval reserve who are camping at Kitemaug begins today with a four-day hike to Saybrook and back. They have been having various but now they will get the real thing in the shape of hiking under al- most the same conditions as in actual warfare. They expect to be gone from camp four days and three nights. About 30 tents will be taken on the cutters, which will be towed to the campin, place for the night. The cadets wi march. In the five companies of cadets there are representatives of every state in the union. Bxcept for a few of the younger ones, who are etill suffering from the pangs of homesickness, the boys are pretty well satisfied with the life. The discipline 1s anything but strict, the superintendent, Major Willis J. Physioc, a veteran of the Boer war, does not believe in strict disci- pline for growing boys. The large guard house next to the guard ten however, is seldom empty, for “hoy will be boys.” FPunishment for minor offenses is meted out in the form of demerits. These are worked off by doing the menial labor about camp, such as_taking care of the grounds. Grave offenses are tried by courtmar- tial and usually result in dismissal. The cadets are divided into five com- panies, lettered consecutively from A to E. The camp is situated in a large field on the westerly side of the reser vation. Each company and the band have a separate street on which to pitch their tents. Along the main street of the camp the tents of the of- ficers are located.. On the left of the entrance is situated the three-acre parade ground. On the road near the entrance is the guard tent. In one corner of the parade ground is a sec- tion of wall 12 feet high which is used for wall scaling. At the southerly end of the parade ground is a 30-foot flag- pole. Surmounting the hill is the mess Fall, which is a frame building 40 b: 100 ‘feet. A large Colonial farmhouse is capable of housing 50 hovs who in the judgment of the camp surgeon should be quartered indoors. The mess hall is used for thé Saturday night dances. Four three-inch field guns are included in the equipment. The navy is the pattern followed rather than the army, even though Camp Dewey is located on shore, for the object of the Junior Naval reserve is to train men for the merchant ma- rine, and those who have no inclination for ‘the seaman's life, for citizenship. The company commanders are mem- bers of the staff with the rank of lieutenants. The second in command, who.would be known in the army as first lieutenant, is designated with the seagoing_title of lieutenant. junior grade. In like manner the third in command is known as ensign rather than second lieutenant. The battalion officers and the company commanders are members of the staff of instractors but the other company officers are se- iected from the cadets. There are for Hike to Saybrook—Three Hundred and Fifty Boys Receiving Elementary Naval about three platoons to each of the ‘companies, each platoon consisting of 18 men. In all the drills all forma- tons and commands are those of the navy rather than of the army. Reveille blows at 5.30 and is follow- ed by 10 minutes of eetting-up exer- cises. Breakfast is served at § o'clock. After breakfast a short time is allowed %o police the camp: that is, to put the camp In order. Police is followed by inspection, and those who have not put their things in apple-pie order may count on spending thelr recreation in working off demerits. After inspection there is an hour of either infantry or artillery drill. This is followed by three $0-minute periods of ‘“school” where the cadets are taught mathe- matics, history, geography, English, French or Spanish, civics, astronomy, sanitation and military tactics. After school there is luncheon, which is fol- jowed by drill in the cutters on the river. Recall from cutter drill sounds at 3.40 and the boys have from then until 549 to shift into dress uniform for the evening dress parade which is held from 5.40 until 6. After dress parade comes mess call and then the s have a short drill period, leaving them about an hour before tattoo at 9 o'clock. Lights out blows at 9.15. There are two uniforms in use at the camp. the dress uniform consisting of a blue coat trimmed with gold braid, white trousers and a dress cap, and the fattgue uniform of _white duck blouse and trousers. When on the march leggings are worn. The officer of the day and the officer of the guard, who are selected from the staff officers of the camp, are distinguished by a red sash. The staff consider it an excellent recommendation for the camp that the navv department, when the Newport training station hécame over- crowded. sent §0 apprentice seamen to Camp Dewey to take the same course as the other cadets before going into the navy. The tuition of the camp is 2110, and the necessary uniforms cost $20. The cadet is also required to bring or purchase the foilowing _articles: Dark hlue sweater. broke-in shoes (one extra pair), face towels, bath towels. tooth hrush, underwear. socks, hand- erchiefs, comb, brush. bathing suit, rubber coat. two hlack four-in-hand ties, pajamas, blankets and outing shirts. = Athletic equipment may be brought to the school if desired. While the camp is in no sense a preparatory school for either Annap- olis or West Point, those of its grad. uates who go to these schools, and many do, have duite an advantage over the appointee with mo previous training. However, whether the boys 0 into the army, navy. merchant ma- rine or just remain common citizens, the omicers of the reserve. among whom are numbered Charles S. Whit- man. John Purroy Mitchel, William McAdoo and Theodore Roosevelt, J. believe that the life at the camp will have left an impression for the better that will make the man of tomorrow a better citizen. SECRETARY HILL HAS CHARGE OF TENT. Sends Letter to Local Association from First Regiment Camp. The local Y. M. C. A. has received a letter from General Secretary Edwin Hill, who is in charge of the Y. M. C. A. tent at Yale field, where the First egiment of the Connecticut National uard Is in camp. There nre two tents at the field. one of which Hill has in charge under the auspices of the state Y. M. C. A, and_the_ other under the auspices of the New Haven Y. )L C. A. The latter tent has special charge of the welfare of the New Ha- ven bove. Mr. Hill stated that'the tent was in a fine position and that the men were using its privileges freely. The ulti mate result of this will be the eager search for the Y. M. C. A. red triangle by the troops when they go across the Atlantic. Mr. Hill said that never De- fore had he seen the work of the as- sociation so well appreciated. \ One of the first persons to greet Mr. Hill at the camp was Captain Gris- wold, who was -n commard of Com- pany 1, which was stationed at Nor- wich for some time this spring. Cap- tain Griswold took Mr. Hill to the company street and when the men recognized him he was given three rousing cheers in appreciation of the in is necessary that another tent he erected at Niantic, where several of the other state units have orders fo port. It_is thought quite possible at the Norwich association will he ziven charge of this tent, as it is the only one.in the state whose secretary is not engaged In some permanent position in ona of the big training camps. Mr. Hill will return temporarily Saturday. CAPTAIN HAGBERG SENDS COMPANY K NOMINATIONS. List Despatohed to Colonel of Third Regiment, Home Guard.

Grand Headquarters of The French Army in France, July 26—(By The Associated Press.)—The Germans in a persistent effort to recapture at least some of the Chemin des Dames trans- ferred their attention today to the re glon of Hartebise, on which the launched & strong attack, supported by heavy artillery concentration. The infantry assauited again and again but despite the heavy masses thrown into the action. they were unable to secure any advantage other than en- trance into a small section of an ad- vanc#1 French trenches to the south of Ailles. The German storming battalions were caught by an intense barrage fire as they left the trenches and their ranks were rapidly depleted. Deduils of the attack on ti4* Californie and Casemates plateaux. in which the Germans suffered the most important defeat in the first half of the week, show that some of the Prussian regi- ments lost fifty per cent. of their ef- fectives. They emploved more than 100 batteries during the hombardment. Cited for Courage. Paris. July 26.—Charles M.

In this way anthracite conditions are consid better, but New England is Dy means out of the wWood fact that while more c. carried by rail, less is being brought by water, due to lack of water ton and a shortage of coal at the lead pory Storrow, has in’ in- S England has never been able to bring in coal during the winter months as fast as it could be burned. The carrying capacity of both railroads and boats is cut down during the wint months and unless the consumers pre- | pare for the heavy drain on coal piles in the winter by accumulating coal in the gummer, they cannot possibly make up for the shortage which will come at_a critical moment. The question of price does not ente into this. though New FEngland ha borne a heavy burden in this respec the last year. The point is that if New | England is to et through next winter with the coal it must have and thus avoid hardship much greater than the high prices of last winter. people must take coal and keep taking coal ewery | day to the limit of New England's carrving capacity This duty to keep our carrylng ca- | pacity working to the full limit the next 90 days falls on the larger cor- porations which have financial re- cources and storage capacity sufficient to accumulate now most of next win- ter's supply, but equally the individual, whether householder or manufacturer, with the funds and storage capacity io take next winter's coal at this time, should act.

Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkall. This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and ruins It. The best thing for steady use is just ordinary mulsified cocoanut oil (which is pure and greaseless), and is better than the most expensive soap or any- thing else you can use. One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse the hafr and scalp thoroughly. Simply moisten . the hair with water and rub it in. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, which rinses out easily, removing every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive oll. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves the scalp soft, and the hair fine and silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy and easy to manage. You can get mulsified cocoanut oll at any pharmacy, it's very cheap, and a few ounces will supply every member of the family for months. have reduced further a supply of labor at the mines already insufficient, A fixed government price when | coal cannot be secured will not run a or keep a holse warm next Delay in the hope of sccuring better price will increase the diffi- culty of transportation in the winter, and If there should come any jowering of price at the mines it is likely to be offset Dy higher water rates. Railroads can carry much less coal in the winter though the needs are much greater; less can move by water, Last sprinz and winter water rates on a coal to Boston went as high as $5 a ton as compared wiih tne present price of $250. To this must be added rail rates from mine to tidewater and In some instances a second railroad harge from a New the interic nzland port to The next 90 days are critical. We should utilize the weather now favor- able to transportation by filling our cellars, our hins and the piles in the vards of the industrial establishments, or we shall be forcing a very acute shortage when cold weather arrives.
