WHEN IN DOUBT. TrT The Tribune.

No matter whether you are trying to build a skyscraper, a home, or the savings account habit, when you start you have mahy difficulties to overcome —•there is the organizing and systema* tizing period to pass through. .That is most surely true of the savings account habit. You should give lip part of your foolish spending and put the money saved away—to be used when needed—maybe for sickness, an enjoyable and educating vacation trip Or possibly to get an interest in a business firm.

We can't all start out at the thousand dollar mark, but all can start with a dollar. Then every week add & certain per cent of your pay.

NAVYROOKIES PLEASED U. S. STEAMER IS DE-

Recruits in Training' At Norfolk Station Write Enthusiastic Letters.

WASHINGTON, July lti—lt a full stomach means anything to a military force in coming out victorious, then the United States navy will come out with the prize. Several of the young men from Washington who enlisted since the outbreak of the war and who are In training at the Norfolk station have written a letter to the editor of the Star to tell what good food they have and of the fine treatment of the officers.

They had a real banquet on Decoration day. There was too much to It to be just a meal, and the menu card was in most attractive style, with the national colors aa a frontispiece. Said they in the letter: "We felt that we must write you to show our appreciation of what the United States navy does for us. Today being Decoration day, we were given a meal that, at a time like this, when prices are so high, nothing short of a millionaire could afford. We always get good, substantial food and plenty of it. "The menu will explain better than we could what we had to eat. Wo positively had everything of it, and plenty of it. If you see fit to publish this, It may make some of the doubtful ones make up their minds to enlist, because this conies from boys who know. "You might also add that we have no more work to do here than ia necessary to give us exeroise enough to eat these meals. The officers afe fine men, and treat us like 'regular fellows.' The work we do is nothing but drilling for about six hours a day, broken up into periods which make it easy to do, and then a little guard duty. We like our Job."

The letter is signed by George A. Ford, Harrie W. Newman, Fred J. Plat, James F. Lillis, Harry A. Caton, John B. Maszullo, all of this city, and Richard Asa Taylor, of Columbus, Ohio, and Lawrence Kidney, of Chillicothe, Ohio, all apprentioe seamen, living in Tent 12, Company M. M„ at the naval training camp at Norfolk.

This is what they had to eaJt: Consomme royal, celery, green onions, radishes. stuffed pickled peppers, roast stuffed Princess Anne turkey, cranberry sauce, oyster dressing, giblet gravy, baked spiced ham, potato croquettes, cauliflower au gratin, assorted pies, layer cake, apples, oranges, bananas, Neapolitan ice cream, cigars and coffee.

Representatives of the Berlin press were received Saturday by Gen. Ludendorff, who discussed the military situation. He said the situation qr

STATE GUARDSANSWER CALL TO WAR DUTY

Continued From Pag* On*.

material to be transported with the troops, Supplies at divisions are being concentrated in the depots established in the south to feed the federal units.

Rapid progress Is being made in relieving guard regiments which have been in the federal service since the declaration of war guarding property. This work will be taken over largely by civilian watchmen and many states already have built up the guarding machinery which will free the guard regiments for war duty.

It will be necessary to retain guardsmen for the protection of certain big munition works and other property vital to the conduct of the war. The department commanders will hold such troops as they deem advisable for tnls purpose.

The next step in the general mobilization will be the ordering of divisions to the camp sites already selected for them. A full supply of tent&ge is available, the department reports show, and the divisions will entrain as rapidly as the commanders of the department from which they come and of those in which their companies are located agreed as to the dates.

May Get French Guns.

The most serious shortage of war equipment for the guard is in the artillery. For training purposes the big gun regiments undoubtedly w'H continue to use the equipment they have, supplemented by such additional ordnance as the regular service can spare. It is regarded as practically certain, however, that if the guard divisions are sent to France at an early dat they will be equipped with French artillery on their arrival there. PreRumably their first war work will be with the famous French "75's."

Departure of the guardsmen for France, it was indicated today, will he governed by the shipping problem. War department officials regard many divisions of the state troops as virtually ready now for the intensive training behind the fisrhting line in France, which will prepare thern for their place in the trenches.

There is no reason why some elements could not go forward at once except lack of transportatibn and the submarine menaoe.

WASHINGTON, July 1«.—The burden of responsibility for hastening the first drawing of men for the new national army today rests entirely on state and local authorities. The federal government has completed its work but the failure in some sections to complete organization of exemption board and finish the serial numbering of the registering cards is causing delay.

Many precincts today reported to Provost Marshal General Crowder that local exemption machinery is complete, but there still are many isolated districts to be heard from. War department officials were hopeful that the work will be finished within the next few dnys ao that the draft lottery may be held before the end of the week.

selective conscription hardly could b* fceld before Saturday at the earliest. Fifteen states have not reported the completion of their exemption board organization. Numerous districts in ay of these states have finished, however, so it is impossible to tell just when the final report is tn be expected.

The process followed'by the boards Is to file two copies of their completed and numbered lists of registrants as soon as the serial numbers have been arranged. One copy is mailed to the provost marshal-general in Washington and the other to the governor of the state. Less than a thousand of the 4,559 districts still are to be heard frofn at Washington and probably only a few hundred have not. reported as yet to the governor.

In California, for instance, the "governor would receive his copy from any exemption board four or Ave days before the mail would bring to" Washingington a copy for the provost marshal- 4 general. The governor would repoVt to the provost marshal-general only when every district in his state had been heard from.
