Fort Sam Houston. Texas, April 8,
192H.—The doctors of the eighth
Corps Area, which includes the States
of Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico,
Oklahoma and Texas, have just gone
on record, according to a statement
issued today by Major General Er-
nest Hinds, the Corps Area Comman-
der, as heartily favoring the aims and
objects of the Citizens' Military Train-
ing Camps. Their support of this
National movement to make better
citizens of our young men comes from
all sections of the Corps Area and is
a conclusive indorsement of these
camps by more than 2500 family phy-
sicians.
In order that the voung men may
take advantage of our Government's
offer of thirty days outdoor training,
these doctors have written General
Hinds agreeing to perform free of
charge the necessary physical exami-
nation, inoculation against typhoid-
para-typhoid fevers and vaccination
against smallpox. This shows their
interest in the young men of their
community and their patriotic desire
to further the Government's plan of
teaching our youth their rights and
duties as citizens. It also indicates
their opinion as to the desirability
and necessity of C. V. T. C. training,
designed as it is to strengths our
youth morally, mentally and physi-
cally.
No profession is keener to appre-
ciate the lasting benefits derived by-
developing our young manhood. The
physicians and surgeons realize more
than am other profession the lasting
benefit to be derived from this health
ful and systematic outdoor training
by the growing youth of not only the
present generrtion, but generations to
come. They know the value of the
statistical data which shows the phy-
; ical development of the student at-
tendants at the camps of previous
years.
, he records of the 1025 camps show-
that a big majority of the trainees
gained from 1 to 17 pounds, or an
average of approximately 5 pounds,
in weight, grew from 1-SJ to 1-4 inches
in height and increased their chest ex-
pansion from 1-2 to 2 inch \s c.ich. The
excessive weight of a few trainees,
due to lack of exercise, was reduced
and replaced by muscular develop-
ment. All this with only one month's
C. .u. T. Camp training.

sult in non-acceptance are brought
On account of confusion among
many trappers, furriers, and war-
dens as to the meaning of the terms
"prime" and "unprime" and "legal"
and "illegal" when tpplicd to furs,
the Biological Survey of the 1'nited
States Department of Agriculture
makes the following explanation of
these terms:
Primeness is determinel by ex-
amining the skin side, which, if the
pelt is fresh, should be fairly white
or cream colored and show some
"life' when handled. Black or blue
spots in the skin indicate that it is
unprime. Skins turn yellow with nge
and lose their firmness. The out-
side of a prime fur should be per-
fectly and evenly furred all over,
both on the back and on the belly,
with the fur reasonably long, lus-
trous, and silky. There should be rv>
rubbed spots or defects. A trapper
can not tell whether a j>eh is prime
before he skins the animal, however
for the outsile appearance alone is
