Fashions ~~U4 I Headquarters Italian army, June 3. --(Correspondence of The Associated Press.)-The American military mis- sion is now one of the permanent es- tablishments at Italian headquarters, with extensive offices and a consider-t able force of officers and men, in close communication with the Italian higha command and with the various sec- tions of the front. Thus far the work has been one ofr organization and observation, but soon there will be the active service along the mountain and Piave fronts of some 1,500 officers and men of the regular army medical service, with 30 ambul- ance sections of 10 or 12 ambulances to the section, and later on there is the possibility, much discussed, of Am- erican troops in the fighting line. Al- ready the American uniform is much in evidence along the streets, and there is a distant setiment of cordial- ity toward the troopers in the broad- briunmed sombrero. Major General Eben Swift, a cavalry officer of long service, is at the head of the American mission. He was for a time in France in conference with General Pershing, and then came with his staff to Rome and to headquarters. With him as chief of staff is Colonel John McA. Palmer of the general staff corps, who was on the general staff at Washington when the constructive work on the new army was being done, and later was one of General Persh- ing's chief staff officers in France. Officers Well Received The American officers have been well received and made to feel at home. They share the mess with the other foreign military missions which includes a large number of British, Belgian, Japanese, Serbian and other officers. As an officer for keeping the Americans in close touch with the Ital- ian military authorities, the govern- ment designated Prince Colona, mayor of Rome. Hemdquarters in Palac The American headquarters is es- tablished in one of the famous old palaces of the region, now taken over for war uses. There are extensive of- fices for the various branches engaged in observation and report, with a rat- tle of typewriters and activity that sound like the corridors of the war department at Washington. The old palace has extensive gard- ens in the rear, which run back to one of the most monumental church edifices in Italy, with its interior adorned by the frescoes of Titian and Giotto and many of the masterpieces of Donatello, as well as the catafal- cue in which repose the remains of the world's great saints.

"The 'Blue devil of the mechan- ics.' ". "Enter, friend." The above ejaculations are entirely plausible since the members of the first training detachment have sta- tioned eight guards around the "auto- mobile heaven." For several days the special stu- dents, as well as a few of the in- structors, suspected that some un- known individual had been endeavor- ing to cart away the belongings of the inmates in the "heaven" behind the Engineering building. Things have mysteriously disappeared, and in order to put a stop to the petty thefts, a squad of training men, arm- ed with rifles, have been detailed to guard the place. Two men are on guard every hour of the nigh c. The guards are changed every two hours. At the end of a definite period, another squad of men takes tarn at guard duty. In this manner nearly every member of the first training detachment will have experience in guard duty. This is the first drastic act n that the captain of the detachment has taken toward the protection of Uni- versity property. In case the danger increases, it is probable that a larger force may be employed on guard duty. The next detachment will have day and night guard duty. Guard mount will also be introduced.

Graves, the Chief of the U. S. Forest Service, has written a letter to the Boy Scouts explain- ing why the need for the work is ur- gent. "The tremendous forest resources of the United States," Colonel Graves states in the letter, "will undoubtedly be a very important factor in the win- ning of the war for the allies. One of the most essential timbers for war purposes, as the President points out, is the black walnut. With the excep- tion of mahogany, which has to be imported and thus burdens the ship- ping facilities of the country, no oth- er wood is so well adapted for air- plane propellers. "Since four or five propellers are required for each airplane and since black walnut is scarce and only the best grade can be utilized for this purpose, it is important for the Gov- ernment to know immediately the lo- cation of all available supplies. Wal- nut is also the chief wood used for gun-stocks. "I believe that the Boy Scouts are performing a most valuable patriotic service in undertaking this work. Let me urge you to impress upon . the farmers of the country the impor- tance of properly conserving their forests and especially propagating such valuable species as the black walnut, which has appropriately been called the Liberty Tree."
