And it hath come to pass that I must choose between Stenography and Matrimony.” And I instructed her, saying: “My Daughter, by FLATTERY shalt thou lead them on; yea by songs of praise and words of honey shalt thou ensnare them as flies upon fy- paper.

The use of a uniform is necessary in time of ‘war, but it is not necessary in time of peace. Therefore, all questions of envy or annoyance resulting from uniforms are subordinate to the main question of re-establishing and mai:taining the practice of mili- tary drill and discipline. r rt OUR NEW PINAFORE. : Aree of an “Aid for Education” to the staff of the 4 j ¢ Secretary of the Navy is explained by a statement from the r Secretary that the navy is “the greatest university in Amer- fea.” § The course of instruction is said to range from spelling to the etady of strategy and to include university extension work.
