WILL TEST ASSESSOR'S LAW.
Oklahoma City, Feb. 24.—A test
ot the County Assessors' law respect-
ing the amount of compensation al-
lowed for assessing a county is in-
volved in an appeal filed in the
supreme court by Claude W. String-
er, attorney for former Assessor
Lloyd Thomas of Hughes county.
A decision will affect the rate ot
pay of all assessors prior to pas-
sage of the amended Assesors' bill.
Until passage of the new law as-
sessors figured their percentage on
the total valuation of the county.
including public service property,
which was assessed" by the state
board of equalization. The new law
specially excludes that class of
property. Assessor Thomas s claim
for compensation was figured on the
old basis and was rejected by the
county commissioners upon the
theory that public service property
should not be included. In a suit
before the district court the county
commissioners were sustained.

regiments encamped at Texas City'
and Fort Crockett,. Some of the
commanding officers freely confess
that they are unable to explain
why the ranks are not being re-
cruited. The shortage in the two
camps—Texas City and Fort Crock-
ett—amounts to approximately two
thousand. It is definitely stated at
Fort Crockett camp that the four
regiments of infantry there are short
513 men.
Various reasons for the failure
to supply the ranks from the re-
cruiting officers are given. The
principal reason, according to some
of the commanding officers, is the
longer term of enlistment, which has
beon in operation more than a year.
Under the new order of tilings the
enlisted man must serve seven
years, four years in active and three
years on the reserve list.
Monotony of Camp Life
The monotony of camp life is giv-
en us a reason almost of oqual
prominence in explaining why tho
majority of the men who obtain dis-
charges at the expiration of their
terms of enlistment do not re-enlist,
Further, it is pointed out that the
pay of the enlisted men is not an
inducement, industrial and commer-
cial life offering the discharged sol-
dier more emolument. In connection
with this last cited explanation, it
is a somewhat significant fact that
the records of the navy recruiting
stations show that many of the en-
listed men discharged from the army
enter the service of the navy. The
Galveston recruiting station of the
navy, for example, has taken in an
average of one and one-half men a
week for some time past from the
quota receiving discharges at Fort
Crockett camp. These men, as a
rule, preferred the navy because (
they were disappointed in army camp
life and craved action.
Col. Millard F. Waltz of the Nine-;
teenth regiment of infantry and
commanding the Fifth brigade in
, amp at Fort Crockett, when asked
10 explain the continued shortage
df troops in the Texas City and Fort
Crockett camps, responded that con-
ditions were not so bad as general
reports make them.
"The seven-year term of enllst-
inen unquestionably lias a good deal
to do with the failure of discharged
men to re-enlist," said the brigade
commander. "A shorter term would
no doubt make re-enlistment more
attractive. Some of tho officerf of
the army are strongly in favor of
the three-year term. 1 long ago.
put myself on record as advocating
that period of Bervlce for the en-
listed man.
Enlisted Men Want Action
"My experience and observation,
have taught me that the American j
soldier is moved by a composite i
spirit of patriotism, love of adven-1
ture and thrift, when he enlists for]
service. The vigorous, full-blooded
man entering the army as an en-1
listed man craves and expects ac-
tion. Confining the case to the men
who are quitting the service after
being In camp here one year, I
think we may safely say that these
men have been disappointed by the
monotony of camp routine. If we
had been ordered into Mexico, I
believe that the majority of those
who have left the camp to return to
civil life would have re-enlisted in
the army.
life with its better emoluments and
other advantages that they may not
gain in the military service calls
to them. One should realize that
the private in the ranks is not there
because he is incapable of better ad-
vancing his material Interests.

LETTER TO MR. C. E. HltiOISS,
SHAWNEE, OKLA.
Dear Sir; You know something
about the value of paint around a
farm. It's a sign of thrift as well
as a protection of property. The
better the paint, the greater the
thrift and the protection.
A farmer near Whitewater, Wis.,
was going to paint his hoUBe; and
it required $18.75 worth of lead and
oil to do it. Our agent, G. W.
Sperbeck, sold him Devoe, lead-and-
sinc Paint; ten gallons cost him
$16.00 and he had a gallon left;
net cost: $14.40 for Devoe paint
against $18.75 for lead and oil.
He was so pleased with the job
and the saving that he told all his
neighbors about it; and they have
since painted with Devoe lead-and-
zinc Paint.
You see what thrift and protec-
tion mean when they're Devoe.
YourB truly,
F. W. Devoe & Co.,
New York, Chicago and Kansas City
