MANY SAILORS IN U, S. FLOTILLA GET PROMOTIONS few Officers Swamp Tailors With Orders for Gold Laced Uniforms.

BASE AMERICAN FLOTILLA, IN

BRITISH WATERS. Oct 16 Tbe two tailor In this little eaeoast town are enjoying a hitherto unheard of reign of prosperity owing to the unpreceiiented demand for gold lace and new uniforms from American officer and men who have Just been promoted. Tb promotions, permanent and temporary, in the line of the navy were made in accordance with the recommendations of the selection board which recently Bat In Washington. All those in the flotilla, who have been selected have now been notified but owing to the distance from Washington it will be some days yet before all have their commissions. The promo

tions were necessary in order to create more officers for the growing navy. Avalanche of Orders The cheering news was long waited here and it caused an avalanche of orders to fall on the unprepared tailors la the port. Every man who was giv. en a little more rank wanted to show It on his uniform. Warrant officers, the highest non-commissioned rank, who were suddenly raised into the commissioned status and who were thus privileged to step up Jpto the officers mesa, wanted their new- uni forms to wear at table. Consequently, the local sartorial artists were swamped with demands for decorations for suits not carried in their regular limited stock, such as appropriate de ivces for collars silver anchors, silver bars, gold leaf and hundreds of yards of gold broid for sleeves. Wliile it cannot, for military reasons, be said how many of the officers and men of the line of the navy over here benefited by the action of the Washington beard, it is not violating the rules of the censor to say that nearly all the junior officers were ad vanced !n rank, that a large number of the warrant officers were raised to the rank of ensign and the chief petty of-

On The Screen

WASHINGTON The story told In "The Corner Grocer," the newest World-Picture Brady-Made, is so thoroughly true to life that it might happen in any household. It Is the story of a young man who is sent to college by his adoring father, the corner grocer, and who comes back an utrand-out "nob. Falling into the clutches of an unscrupulous adventuress the young man forges bis father's cneck for the purpose of getting money to give . the woman. The corner grocer makes the check good, although it breaks him

financially, but he turns his son out of the house until be can make good. The Washington theatre takes pleasure in

fleers rated up to warrant rank. The result is that a large percentage of the

eligible portion of the personnel now

have extra rank and increased pay, a

fact which has created intense satis

faction.

All the ensigns of the elass of 1915,

of whom there are a great many in

the flotilla here, are made lieutenants junior grade. Graduates of the classes

of 1910-11 and about one-third of the class of 1012 who were lieutenants Junior grade, are made full lieutenants. Officers who were not lieutenant commanders previous to the passage of the last act of congress enlarging the navy are made lieutenant commanders down to about three-fourths of the 1908 class. Lieutenant commanders are made commanders down to and including about half the class of 1902. Commanders are made captains down to and beginning with the class of 1894. The majority of the promotions are temporary. Many men are given promotion a year before they would receive it in the ordinary course of af-
