NAVAL HIIM TO
HAVE NEW 11
Auxiliary Sea Force Are to Be
Called Naval Volunteers Un
der Recently Voted Law.
OREGON MEN ARE PLEASED
Status Will Be That of Regulars
When on Active Duty, and Pay
for Drills at Other Times
Is Provided For.
The Oregon Naval Militia: is aoon to
chan ere Its. name. It will be known as
the Naval Volunteers.
Lieutenant-Commander George V.
Blair, of the Naval Militia, has received
information that the Division of Naval
Militia Affairs is -working to prepare
the regulations which, -under the new
naval appropriation bill, are to govern
the new Naval Volunteers and the
forms for changing: from the old to the
new system. Notice has been Issued
that they will soon be ready.
"The Naval Militia is enthusiastic
over the new law," Commander Blair
said yesterday. "The members believe
they are going to have a big, efficient
organization in the near future, and
that as soon as the provisions of the
law are in operation and understood
there will be so many applications for
enrollment that they will need a bigger
ship than the Marblehead to accommo
date them."
New Name Pleases.
IMscussins the change. Commander
Blair said:
"The new name is probably one of
the most pleasing features of the bill.
In the estimation of the Naval Militia.
The term militia has been used so In
discriminately in the past 100 years
that it has little meaning left, and a
more specific name was unquestionably
needed.
"The National Naval Volunteers are
a very restricted class of men, selected
for special qualifications and forming
the first line of the reserve naval force.
"Having been enrolled, a member is
liable for call by the President for im
mediate service, either within or with
out the. territorial limits, in case of war
or other National emergency, and must
serve during the continuance of such
war or 'emergency unless sooner re
lieved by the President. In time of
peace he attends a maximum of 48
drills, and cruises for a period of at
least five days each year. A full out
lit Is issued to him and he Is thereafter
required to keep it complete. While in
actual, service he Is subject to naval
discipline and regulations.
Duty Periods Described.
"A naval volunteer Is only on duty
during his weekly drill period of about
two hours, when upon cruise duty, or
when In active service in answer to a
call from the President during a Na
tional emergency. At other times he is
fre of all military obligations. In re
turn for the obligations he assumes by
enrollment he receives:
"Retainer pay at the rate of 25 per
cent of his base pay, but not to exceed
$120 a year.. .. .
"Full pay of his rate while on cruise
cr other ordered duty or in active serv
ice In answer to a call of the President.
"Application of the pension laws
while in active Bervice.
"Promotion, rewards, brevet rank,
medals, etc., while In active service, the
same as any regularly commissioned
officer or enlisted man of the Navy.
"Retirement with pay after continu
ous service.
"When in active service there Is no
difference between a regular and a Na
tional naval volunteer. The new act
does not make any greater demands on
a man's time. He can obtain his dis
charge as heretofore for sickness, night
employment or removal from the dis
trict, or a furlough on similar grounds.
"Retainer pay will average from $1.25
to J2.50 a man for each drill attended."
TEACHER DEMAND IS HEAVY
Monmouth Head Trying to Meet
Calls for Graduates.
OREGON NORMA Ii SCHOOL., Mon
mouth, Or., Nov. 11. (Special.) Not
only are teachers in demand In all
counties in Oregon, as expressed by
communications from various school of
ficials, but the demand for grade pupils
In the state training school here has
been growing until the supply believed
to be necessary for the immediate fu
ture is forecasted as short. A slight
response has been made to the teacher
demand, but the Monmouth supply of
training school children is not elastic.
President Ackerman is studying the
situation in an effort to gain the use
of more pupils for practice work. The
CHILD'S TONGUE
system in practice Is advantageous to
pupils and teachers alike. Every nor
mal school senior must have had 100
hours of practice teaching before grad
uation is allowed under the standard
normal school system.

Most Effective Remedy
Mother Had Ever Used
Dr. CaldivelVs Syrup Pepsin
Relieves Baby When Other
Medicines Failed.
There Is nothing so necessary to a
child's health and comfort as regularity
of the bowels. All children are espe
cially susceptible to stomach trouble
and any overstrain of the sensitive or
gans has a tendency to obstruct elim
ination. This condition Is responsible
for much of the illness of childhood.
To relieve constipation a mild laxa
tive should be employed. Cathartics
and purgatives are violent in their
action and should be avoided. Mrs. Al
fred Du Bols. Mt. Holly, N. J., says Dr.
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is without
doubt the most effective remedy for
constipation she has ever used and that
it Is the only remedy she could find
for her baby. Little Earl was badly
constipated during his first year and
nothing she tried seemed to help him
until she got a bottle of Dr. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin. Xow he is a fine, strong,
healthy boy. and she thanks Dr. Cald
well for it.
Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin Is a com
bination of simple laxative herbs with
pepsin, free from opiates or narcotic
drugs; it acts gently without griping
or other discomfort, and appeals to
children because of its pleasant taste.

That is 4he joyful cry of thousands

Dr. Edwards, a practicing physician

chronic constipation and torpid livers.
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets do not

No gri-ing is the "keynote" of these

They cause the bowels and liver to act

unnatural action.
