Under the watchful eye of a quartermaster sergeant, some U. S. marine recruits were being fitted into uniforms today. One recruit was obviously awkward and nervous.

"I tried that, but it don't do any good." ventured the perariring recruit, tugging manfully to accomplish a hopeless task. The sergeant gave it up in disgust. "Shake a leg," in the parlance of the United States Marine, means "Hurry up." LAPORTE.

A parade that marched in Broad (By State Council of Defense.) INDIANAPOLIS. Ind.. Aug. 16. Military companies consisting of men exempted by the new conscription law, to replace the National Guard of the several states when the latter organisations enter Federal service, are wanted by the United States government for a very special and important duty during the period of the war. Their duties will be altogether local in character and will involve a minimum of sacrifice in view of the nature of j the work that those enlisted will be i called upon to perform. For some months members of the National Guard regiments have been stationed at railroad bridges, in public buildings, at shipyards, railroad terminals, and all important work. They have prevented incendiarism and the destruction of necessary public utilities by alien enemies. The withdrawal of these drilled Encampment of Soldiers in Indiana Cities Raises a Question That Is of Vital Interest to Saloons. TXaCES BUREAU, AT STATE CAPITAL. INDIANAPOLIS, IND, Aug. 16. L. Ert Slack. United States district attorney, has asked the Department of Jus tice. at Washington, for a definition of whether the camps in which the various national guard companies of Indiana are now encamped come under the heading of military camps. If they do saloons are prohibited within a half mile of any such camp. That's the noint Slack wishes settled. Some time aeo the War Department announced that it would strictly enforce the provisions of the law which nmViihit saloons or other evil resorts within five miles of any military camp. except where the camp is located aaininini' ft ritv or town. In that case no saloon would be allowed within half a mile of the camp boundaries. when the Indiana national guard was called into Federal service a few days ago, ' most of the companies went in camp on the fair grounds of their home counties or at other convenient camping places. The point has now been raised in several places in Indiana that the law and the ruling of the War Department covr these camps, and that saloons or oth.ir resorts within half a mile of thosie camps are illegal. The War Department sent word to Terre Haute that unless the local authorities cleaned up the place and eliminated bawdy houses and saloons within a half mile of the camp in which the Terre Haute company of the national guard was located the War Department would do the cleaning itself. The result is that the neighborhood has been cleaned to a finish. Some other cities nowsay that if this rule applies to Terre Haute it applies also to tho other cities in which national guard companies are in camp. Some of the Indianapolis companies have their headquarters at the state fair ground, but there are no saloons within a half mile of that place. But others have headquarters in an auditorium on Virginia avenue, and there are score of saloon inside the half mile rad us. Slack wants to know what to do about them. The answer he receives will be of interest to numerous other cities in the state. ANOTHERROBBERY. The saloon of Nick Carnea, 3502 Penna avenue, was broken into last nigM. At 4:20 this mcrning the East Chicago station received a call to send the patrol " wagon to 3502 Penna avenue. Capt. Ke'er with Officers Budich and Meeha answered the call and found some one had broken into the building through the toilet window. Some clothing including two coats were taken and some bottled whiskey had also been stolen. The police are following the trail left by the intruder. LESTER FELTNER IN TROUBLE Lester Feltner. 611 Chicago avenue, and Harold O'Donnell. 4854 Olcott avenue,' were picked up at Robertsdale yesterday by the Hammond police when they found the boys were spending money freely.

troops requires an adequate substitute. For the danger from spies and traitors is ever present. The need of armed military forces in case of fire, flood, cyclone or tor nado, strikes and riots is apparent to everyone, and especially during a time when the public mind is of necessity unsettled because of outside influences The further fact that disciplined troops will tend to inspire patriotism in all the people, but more especially in the younger generation, is regarded by the government as highly import ant. A proper respect for law and or der is essential to the greatest possible individual efficiency in the prosecution of the war. Such are the reasons for Federal legislation providing for local defense companies, the formation of which is recommended by the Indiana State Council of Defense to every ccfunty council of defense in the state. they had taken the money from rooms over a fruit store on Olcott avenue while the man was taking" a bath. Feltner said the clothes laid on a chair near the bed and he searched the pockets, finding $17. O'Donnel claims to have known nothing of the stealing until they were arrested. The boys had $14.70 left when arrested.

ARMY SURGEON FAVORS PUBLICITY (By United Press.) WASHINGTON. Aug. 16. Fathers and mothers whose sons go to the "firing line" in France will know Just what sanitation conditions surround the military camps, says Dr. Franklin H. Martin., chairman of the Committee on Medicine and Surgery of the National Defense Council. Constant vigilance is to be maintained through the daily press, he says. "I believe the country learned the medical lesson of the Spanish-American war. Publicity is going to be the safeguard against similar mistakes in this vastly greater enterprise," he pointed out. Vital as is the matter of surgical care of the wounded, this task is of small importance. Dr. Martin says, in comparison with that of keeping the men in the camps and on ships free from infectious diseases. "It can be promised that there will be no dangerous epidemics of preventable disease." Dr. Martin concluded. HE WON'T WAIT "Wal. I'm going to enlist. My number's in the next 300 and I'm hanged if I'm a-goin' to wait for "em to come after me." said a big healthy looking country lad today to Sergeant Welch. Hammond recruiting officer.
