The department is determined to break up the practice of men re ceiving military and nautical train ing, afforded free by the Naval Acad emy at Annapolis, and tHen “jump ing the Job” for higher pay ht the first attractive opportunity. The department issued some months ago a pronouncement against th^e permission to midshipmen and .parsed cadets to resign from the service without physical deficiency compelling retirement. Secretary Daniels was asked: “At what grade In the service will the line against resignations be drawn hereafter?” “At no point,” was the prompt re sponse. “There can be no excuse ac ceptable to the Navy Depurtment for the resignation of an officer who has bis health and the necessary amount of physical vigor. It will not be tol erated. “It is not fair to the Government that a man should go for four years to Annapolis and receive compensa tion while he is engaged in his studies- be graduated after having been the Government's charge for that long and then disregard the obligation of service he owes to his Government. This applies to all ranks. There will bet few exceptions.” Bryan Asks Job for His Editor. WASHINGTON, May 31.—Secre tary of State Bryan b urged Pres ident Wilson to appoint Robert L.

I. fi., 1 EXPERT ADVISES British Medical Expert Says Colonel’s Choice and Modera tion in Liquor Are Excellent. LONDON, May 31.—Colonel Roose velt’s habits in the matter of alco holic beverages are commented on by a medical writer in The Daily Mail, who thinks the former President has set an example which many of his countrymen could follow to their ad vantage. He holds that teetotalism Is the Ideal habit, but apart there from it would be hard to improve on the Colonel’s choice and moderation. “His very occasional glass of sher ry,” the physician says, “can be left out of account entirely as far as any action of the alcohol contained in it on the system is concerned. Has Praise for Sherry. “As a matter of fact, the tonic and appetizing effects of a small glass of sherry would, with most adults of normal digestion, greatly outweigh its* disadvantages as an alcoholic bev erage. The same may be said of the glass or two of Madeira sometimes taken at dinner. “In Colonel Roosevelt’s white wine and water the amount of alcohol is again practically negligible. No un prejudiced medical man could cavil at a maximum ot two glasses of champagne. Slam for Mixed Drinks. “At banquets the ex-President has shown wisdom by his avoidance of mixed drinks. The cocktail and the mint julep are striking examples of this form of alcohol stimulant to which no stomach can be subjected without more or less damage. “If every one who occasionally likes wmething stronger than water with his meals used the same good sense in choosing his drinks and the same moderation as Colonel Roosevelt the liquor problem would disappear auto matically.” Jack London’s new story, ‘ ‘ The Scarlet Plague, ’ ’ begins in the American Monthly Magazine given free with every copy of next Sunday’s American.
