Annual Christmas
Major H. D. Bagnall, the army re
cruiting officer In Portland, announc
es that since last June, when army
recruiting was resumed after a sus
pension of several months caused by
the overstrength statu* of the army,
the recruiting service has functioned
so efficiently that the army has again
reached Its full authorized strength,
necessitating certain restriction on
army recruiting. He stated that en
listment* are now restricted to men
with prior army service, and that
men without such prior service can
not now be accepted. Recruiting for
men without prior service has re
verted to a waiting list status and Ma
jor Bagnall advises all qualified young
men interested in army enlistment to
contact the nearest army recruiting
office and have their name* placed on
the waiting list to insure priority in
favorable consideration when recruit
ing is again resumed.
Major Bagnall went on to say that
during the month of November a total
of 98 men were enlisted by the Port
land recruiting district and that the
record* indicate that 75 per cent of
these new soldiers formerly resided
within the limit* of the district itself.

govern
ment’s national fitness campaign is
going to affect not only muscle* but
menu*.
Much of the physical unfitness of
the English people is attributed to
unsuitable and badly cooked food.
The ministry of health and the
board of education are considering
how the better and wide teaching of
cookery can be linked with the phys
ical culture movement.
It is expected steps will be taken
to encourage the provision of more
evening cookery centers for adults
and the better patronage of those
already in existence.
Many girls now go from school
to work in shops, offices, or fac
tories. By the time they are mar
ried they have forgotten moat that
they learned about cooking and
dietetics at school. It is this gsp
between school life and marriage
that the ministry of health and the
board of trade will attempt to
bridge.
