Editor You often hear some fellow on the

Editor people ever take up the occupation in
later life that they study for in col-

-we always feel that it applies to the
Atlas person who speaks it, rather than-to
hlbert anyone else. The time has come
when every person who takes the
time, money and effort to prepare
kman himself for some duty must take up

MARINE CORP TO CONDUCT
OFFICERS' TRAINING CAMP
The United States marine corps will
conduct officers' training camps for
the first time in the history of t'he
service. About 1,800 new officers are
needed to command the 40,000 recruits
and the camp system of making offi-
cers will be followed to provide the
men.
General Pershing has asked that a
full division of the marine corps be
sent to France for early service, and
the corps is now recruiting enough
men to make up the required group.
Six men from the state of Michigan
have been appointed to the first camp.
Anyone who is an enlisted man in the
marines may apply for the training,
but no civilians will be accepted. The
course will last three months, and sec-
ond lieutenants' commissions will be
given.

base hospitals, embarkation, military
and civilian hospitals included in the
institutions in charge of the corps.
This total will be increased by more
than 40 per cent.

WAHR' S
COUNTY'
SALE
TO BOOST
OF STAMPS
With the close of the Liberty Loan
campaign, the work of boosting the
sale of thrift and war saving stamps
will be undertalen with enthusiasm
in Washtenaw county, according to
local officials. The purpose of the drive
is to bring the county up to the quota
of $20 per capita by the first of next
September.
The drive will commence with dem-
onstrations all over the county to-
night, when speakers will visit every
city, town, and village. They will ex-
plain the need of boosting the sale
of thrift stamps for the national fund.
In spite of the fact that this will be a
long campaign, it is expected that
there will be a number of such demon-
strations in the county.
The University band and an exhib-
ition of war pictures will feature the
demonstrations in Ann Arbor. Pic-
tures have been loaned by the govern-
ment for these occasions, and a num-
ber of patriotic speeches have also
been arranged for.
