Zdurdner- To the Editor: I suppose that theys a great many amongst your readers, and a specially the older ones, that find themselfs all the time 4 forgetting thjngi that ':; they should - ought'.- to remem ber andI .Was the same way Tnyself if and one ., of . my- friends, " suggested that X take one of those here memory courses witch he said had helped him a whole . .lot. but I said what is the use ' of me paying money for a memory course when I can probably get one up for myself .that's just jas good and may he a whole lot better so I set down and figured out a system ot how to remember different things, and now I am going to pass the good news on to my admirers and the differents between the . other memory course and I is because X don't charge nothing: for my lessons, but all as you half to do is send In a' stamp self addressed . envelop so I worji't forget where you live At, and I will tell you the complete system but in the fist place I, will give youa few examples of how the system worked with me and you can- Judge for, your self if it's OjK. or the opp. j ' Well ; to begin at -.the beginning, the first time I felt like my memory was slipping was about 2 mos. ago when I was out on the golf linx with a couple of friends and we was playing for a. berry a hole and along about the. Sahele. .one of my friends said he had a six. and the other said he had a' seven so they asked me What I had and I said a fjve. 'Usten,' said my 2d friend, "how about them" two times in the ploughed ground when you swang and never hit the balLat all?'V So that set me to thinking that I had entirely forgot them 2 whiffs, so I kind of laughed to cover up my embarrassments but: I made up my' mind right" there Hat I would find , out some way to remember them missed . swings a specially when the boys was keeping such close - tabs on. a person, so that night I remembered to come home, and after dinner I worked out a system and . the next morning I tried it in the nursery and all 4 of my kids was in there to say nothing about the nurse, and without con sultfcng' notes .1 called them each by their 1st name. "Well." I said to myself, "this sys tem looks, like it was ' A-l and I would be .alfine stiff if I didnt pass it-onj to my friends that's inflicted the sam e way." f . So -then . I used the new system to try and think of some of my friends that had forgot different things, and the 1st. one X thought of was a bird that him and I had been down to N.Y. city a couple mos. before and had dinner and at. that time he said let's make it ' Iutch, so X said all right, but when - the check comes around -he was busy trying to get1 the maple syrup. off his, hands into the finger bowl, so in i.this letter I kind : of reminded him about the Dutch laws and sure enough in a few days I got a letter enclosing 70 cts. : in stamps witch was his share of the orgy. ' - So then I . happened to think of another old pal that couldnt never remember he was married and his wife had complained about it several times, so one night we was over to his house 5 but ; he " wasn't home but his Mrs. 'thought she knew where she could reach' him by telephone, so I called up the No. down town and sure enough' he was there, and I got him on the wire and told him to not forget . he was married and' he said , he wouldn't and .the next night he come home andcalledl his wife by her first name, witch is more than she could do to him as she didn't even answer hint. j.Personly'.,! could., giye ; you .other proofs about how this .system works, for instants I can set down'right this minute -and . without going Into no newspaper,, files- or calling up any sporting editors I can . tell "you who win . between . Willard ' and Dempsey last July or win the world serious last October and I can tell if Babe Ruth swings right or left handed and I can remember what yr. I was married, and why, and I can recall the name of the school I went ' one semester to before they decided that 2 semesters" was 1 too much. and etc. - Wherei'thia .system "CotnesVin:-as handy as any. other 'place tar1 when a man is1 dressing. " For Inst;; how many -of you gents puts on your 'col lax only to find that your shirt is still off, or dons your shoes and; then recalls that the hosiery is still miss ing? Since I got up this system - I can always manage to get niy gar ments onto me as they should come and at 1st. I tried to do Jt in alpha bet order, but X soon found out that I hadn't ,BO ' sooner than got my trousers on, when 1 noticed that the underwear was yet to come and the coat bad been on a long while, be fore it -come time for the vest. ' But the way X overcome those diff icultys was to Just make up my , mind to discard the vest and then' do the rest of it from omega to alpha, in stead of vice - versa, go now when I 2 don the old costume, the underwear comes first, then the trousers and then the sox and shoes and shirt and necktie and finely wind up with the coat whlteh is Just as it should be. This is only an example to show you how good thVeystem works and it don't stop with dressing, but gos all through a man's daily life and as. Ivsay I will f pass it on to . my ad mires, if they will send me a stamp addressed envelop but no money.

DvCrMg CAPTAIN James S. Gay. Jr.. com manded Battery B of the famous Oregon Field artillary, known officially aa-the 147th United States Field artillery. : Captain Gay is a lawyer by profession and he found abundance of power lodged in him without rushing every poor devilj . ' 1 .. . . . . . i 10 a court moruu wno nugm exceea regulations. One of his methods was to keep a little book with a page for each offender. and after two or. three "tricks" to call up the delinquent before him and ask him what he thought we" oould or should do about it. Those Interviews were much dreaded and - agreements made by ; the we ? were faithfully kept in most - of . instances.- When . forgotten or Ignored there were likely to be rapid demotions, orders to report to the officer of the guard every 15 minutes for an indeterminate number of days., kitchen police duties, and other dreadful con tingencies. One instance lets ' a light in on the manner In which Captain Gay admini stered his command. A certain sergeant whom we may call Sergeant Blank, over stayed his leave in a French town and' mistook some grape juice for the Innocent-loganberry juice of dear .. old Oregon, thereby ultimately arriving In camp in an exceedingly unmllitary and individually : independent condition wherein he r defied : and derided - the authorities to interfere . with him . from General Pershing' down.,-.. The third day ; thereafter : : Sergeant Blank ; appeared before Captain Gay. "You have thrown me down, asserted the Captain ; reproachfully. . . Tou have given me your work;, to - do. 4 No other officer, non-com. or private can do your work. - I will have to do it f ir. puts double duties on me. -Tou are reduced to a private and will report to so and so,'"- The captain did the sergeant's work.- The 'broken' sergeant waa heart ily ashamed. Day after day the cap tain attended to the work with the bat tery and the broken" non-com. could only - look on from afar. He begged i an audience, and promised . to never. never, etc. . . . ' .. f I don't believe you,' declared the captain.
