Army Gets 70, Navy 20 and Marine Corps 15 on Last Day Before Census. Another Day of Great Savings in the June White Sale! MARINES WANT MORE MEN THE 3IORNTXG OREGOXIAN, TUESDAY, JUNE 5, 1917. Portland Station Leads In Work of -Recruiting and Is Second In Number Obtained for Branches of Army. On the era of registration for selec tive draft recruits swarmed Into the Various recruiting: stations yesterday and more than 100 were signed up for various branches of the service. The Army station easily led all with a total of 70 recruits. The Navy sta tion took In 20 new men and the Ma rine Corps 15. The recruiting was brisker, officers In charge reported, than It had been for some time. This was partly due to the efforts to es cape the draft registration today. The Marine Corps recruiting station. Captain I P, Pinkston In charge. Is preparing for a big recruiting effort beginning June 11 and closing Saturday.- June 16. In that week the Ma- ria. vri in u-j v w mi . -vvv . - - - to raise that branch o the service to full strength of 80,000 men. Portland's Quota of that has been set at 150 men. Fall Quota Expected. Some of the necessary men have been enlisted by the Portland office and Captain Pinkston declared yesterday that there would be no trouble In get ting the desired number In spite of the fact that the standards were so high that only the best man could enter that branch. Captain Pinkston said that the com ing special week demonstrations would be held on the street and every effort made to get the recruits here In record time. He said that he has the co operation of Mayor Albee. Chief of Po lice Clark, the fire bureau and other public officials in the work. The Ma rine Corps recruiting office will also participate In Rose Festival parades. Captain Pinkston . established ' a branch Marine Corps recruiting sta tion at Missoula, Mont., yesterday. Ser geant W. J. McSwain is In charge. The Portland office has been sending out a large number of men the past few days. Recruits to the. number of El were sent to Mare Island last Fri day, eight were sent Saturday and 15 last night. . . Portland Station Leads. Captain Pinkston said that men joining the Marine Corps are assured of seeing service In the shortest possi ble time. He said that a detachment of the Marine Corps would be among the first troops sent to France, and that such a detachment might even now be on the way. Ensign Hart, of the Navy recruiting station, said last night that recruiting In the Navy had shown an Increase all over the Pacific Coast the last few days. He said that the Portland sta tion easily led In the number of re cruits. "There seems to be some doubt In the minds of many as to the effect the selective draft registration will have on recruiting In the Navy," he said. "We have Information from the Navy Department that a man Is free to vol unteer In the Navy or any other branch of the service up until he Is actually drafted. The registration for the draft will have no effect on his eligibility to volunteer."- Aviators Badly Needed. Ensign Hart said that there was a special demand now for men for avia tion in the Navy. He said that men volunteering for that service should have had some practical experience either In flying or In the running of high-speed gasoline engines. There Is also a good demand for wireless' op erators and telegraphers In the Navy. To stimulate enlistments In the Navy a road show giving two films Illus trative of life In the Navy Is to be shown throughout Western Oregon towns this month. The first show will be given at Hillaboro. A torpedo which has been on exhi bition in Portland is to be taken to the schools of the city and exhibited, and then sent to towns of Western Oregon, following the same schedule as the moving picture.

Mada at Oakland, California. TrainincTHe '. CHILD BV WILLIAM BYRON FORBU3H.PH.rx JUNE examinations remind me or a punitive expedition against Villa. A sort of Intellectual man-hunt. And your child and mine represent the bandit. Just now we are all very much con cerned abont this annual ordeal of putting; the children on the witness stand, to arraign them for the year's misdeeds and indolences. We send them to bed an hour early nights, keep them from the movies for a week and diet them as If they were entered for the pigeon show. As soon as it is over we hurry them to the seashore or the mountains to recover from the mental overstrain. Is It Worth. "Wallet It strikes one as a comedy, If the children . recover. The conscientious teacher has sat up nights with his text books, from which he extracts nuts for his pupila to crack and which he thinks he can crack himself. The youngsters bend over their studies in the vain endeavor to remember all they have learned during; the year at once. For one week they live In such a. con centrated and dazed condition as they never suffer at any other time. Having written down all they know, with a unanimous whoop they hasten to the country, to forget it all as soon as possible. As a method of . checking up the child's progress In knowledge the whole thing strikes one as About as accurate as If you should take the doctor's dlag nosis on a certain day when you were Indisposed as the indication of your average physical condition for the pre vious year. Examinations Are Unreliable. A class examination is a mere gam ble. This child is 111, that one Is ner vous and a third is temperamentally unable to put his best down in writing. Even If the paper shows the contents of . given child's mind fairly the In ventory is exact only for the day upon which It waa taken. The teacher often marks the answers to 10 questions, upon the scale of 100. But nobody can possibly set 10 ques tions of equal difficulty or importance. No two teachers would mark an ex amination paper alike. Two identical papers were once photographed and submitted to 142 teachers. One of the papers was rated by 14 of them at 95 or over and by five at 75 or less, and the other by 14 of them at 90 or over and by 36 at 75 or less. No teacher could re-mark the same paper twice alike. His own feelings and health would alter bis estimates. An 8-Year-Old Writer.

LIQUOR TRAFFIC WANES Spokane Gets Ready to Adjust Itself to Bone-Dry Law. SPOKANE, Wash.. June 4. (Special.) Six liquor permit clerks sat in a row today, twiddling their thumbs and telling funny stories. Very few seekers after the little pink slips appeared to arrange for a final shipment of liquor before the bone-dry law becomes effective. A be lief that the liquor houses of Montana would refuse to ship liquor which would reach here after the law be comes effective was expressed by the clerks. While Friday and Saturday of last week set records for permits never before reached, 200 would have covered the total up to noon today, the smallest number of months. Large numbers of persons appeared who were not yet entitled to permits, but who urged that as the law would cut them off that they should be al lowed one final shipment. All such were denied their permits. FARMERS OF POLK PICNIC Annual Gathering: at Dallas Was Well Attended. DALLAS, Or., June 4. (Special.)
