UK KNOWS HOW, Thomas Morrimmi, the well known blacksmith who enlisted in t he nuvtil resent' some weeks ivjo nnd n week later wuk summoned to the eolnr.s. r tnrneU to Medford Thursday with his family after a month's absence at Hremcrton, with an honorable dis charge from the service. Mr. Merri tiian enlisted for industrial duty us a blacksmith, in class four of the naval reserves, hut found on his ar rival nt llreaierton, that there was no blacksmithiiii!; to lie done, what there was was under civil service, and that instead of beinjr assigned to shore duty, he was to be transferred to class 2 of tho reserves and sent aboard n warship. A protest to the commandant brought hi release. "There have been wild tales in cir culation about me," stated Mr. Merri rnan. "J never was in the ijuard house, as reported, never had any troiiblo with anyone in the service, and never was sent to McNeil island. As far as I know (he Medford con tingent bus been in no trouble, though those of us who were wantonly de ceived by the enlisting officer, arc out considerable money, as n reward for nur patriotism. We were iven honorable discharges from the ser vice because the employment for which we volunteered, did not exist. "I signed up for industrial duty, to work in the navy yards, to relieve the enlisted men, 1 was to receive a sal ary of $00. r0 u month, $12 u year retainer to keep the commandant in formed of my .address, and to serve in war time at my trade, the service to he industrial instead of military. The government was to furnish a four room cottage for my family and I was to have the privilege of baying my groceries and supplies at cost at' the commissary, and that the govern ment would make provision for de pendents. I found on arrival at Bremerton that there was no black- smithing to he done, except that tin ier the civil service rules, no cot tages for use of families of recruits, and that no one iu the reserve could Imv at the commissary. J found that instead of, $110.50 a month my pay was to be iff) 5 and no support for lependents. . "I had been told by Rio recruittug officers that being on industrial duty, f would not have to wear u uniform- but they wanted to put a uniform on me, put me aboard ship and use me in military service, instead of indus trial. When I explained matters to the comiunudaut, he recommended my lischarge and here I am." Mr. Merrimau was out the only naval reserve recruit who signed uii- ler misrepresentation by lr.

The hotel parlors were beautifully deco rated with white and purple lilacs and Medford's usual hospitality was very pronounced. The ladies In charge and the good roads committee wish to thank Miss Ruth Warner, Miss Brault, Mrs. Ber tha Kmcrick, Mrs. Uuy Chlldcrs and Mrs. Stephen ( formerly Veneta Ham ilton) for the splendid musical pro gram which contributed so largely to tho evening's success. Mrs. George Andrews was the accompanist aud playod in her usual finished style. Mrs. Charles Schleffelln outlined the usual procedure for a campaign as carried on by the ladies and sug gested an organization for that pur pose, proving by past experiences wherein the ladies have succeeded for some measure they were particularly anxious for that this was only way to carry the good roads bond issue. Mayor C. K. Gates followed with a talk, favoring Mrs. Schieffulin'B plan, and Mr. E. K. Gore closed the even ing's 'program by approving of the former speaker's plan and paying the ladies a spclndid compliment and re ferring to their success in all things they undertake.
