v AUSTIN Texaa June 22. Lack of
v Wapsratioa od the part of those com-
' moaltka and business Interests which
nararaDj should be among the moat en-
thatic gupportera of the National
Guard of Texas and the financial diffi-
csltiaa due to a lack of sufficient funds
ts carry on the work of reorganisation
tsfetaar with the kaass of old debts eon-
' tract fd by former organisations whicfl
'" are demanding settlementr ar among the
BMMt pressing of the difficulties which
an hampering the commanding officers
their 1 work of reorganisation of the
fetioaal Guard of Texas was emphss--'
bed in speeches at the dinner fivea last
Monday night by the field officers at
' Camp Mabrv who entertained the line
officers as the guests of the evening.
1 - Attention was called by several who
' ' Mde addresses at the dinner that eyfc
organintions of various communities
'.c displayed a woeful lack of interest and
eo-ope ration in the work of rehabilitating
the National Guard. It was also de-
- dared that the fires of patriotism which
' had burned so hotly during the war had
cooled -very perceptibly and that those
'who while the war demands were press-
S ing the most urgently voiced the loudest
' patriotism now displayed a discoursg-
ing lack of fervor for the welfare of the
' n mllitarr orcanixstion from which
they would expect the greatest degree of
' efficiency snd service in time of public
need.
Right Kisd of Mea Ealist
' Not a srest deal of difficulty is ex-
perienced in obtaining the rght kind of
mea to enlist in the NationalXJuard o(-
v titers asserted but a discouraging fact
was that many employers failed to ap-
' predate the importance of encouraging
- their employes to enlist in the National
i Guard if they did not go so iar as to
' actually discourage enlistments in that
. organisation. 1
With the federal government ready to
s contribute millions of dollars in equip-
ment and monies to place the National
Gaard on an efficient and sound basis
- officers at Camp Mabry expressed them-
selves as at a loss to understand the
evident lack of appreciation of the neces-
sity and value of an effident military or-
. natation such as the National Guard of
Texas can become with the intelligent
co-operation of the people of the State.
Officer Vstsrass of Wsrid War.
"Practically all of the officers in the
National Guard of Texas are veterans
at the world war and are qualified for
'- the positions to which they are giving
' their best efforts and when it is real-
ised by the dtiaens of Texas that the
' National Guard has been reorganised on
much better basis than was formerly
' the case greater and more effective co-
operation will be given by the people
throughout the State" was the dedara-
boa of several officers in addresses
made at the dinner.
Attention waa called to recent troubles
semiring throughout the country al-
1 msiona being made to the Long-view.
Tulsa and Chicago riots where it hsd
been found necessary to call upon the
state military organisations to protect
' life and property and restore order ss
Slastrations of the value of an effi-
einet state military organisation ready
for service in time of need.

and Investigate Do This and You Will Decide on a Brunswick
THE ULTONA
No one feature of the Brunswick Method of Repro-
duction has done so much to revolutionize people's
ideas of the difference between phonographs as the
Ultona.
The Ultona is an excellent Brunswick idea covered
by patents. ' '
At a turn of the hand it plays all makes of records
not an attachment but a part of the design.
But this is not the only advantage.' It is counter-
balanced the only scientific reproducer that cushions
the path of the needle by proper suspensidn.
This means an end to "scratching" noises. It means
bringing out the hidden beauties of the record. It
means a longer-lasting record one that retains its new-
V
ness.
If the Brunswick had no other advantages oves ordi-
nary phonographs this one feature should decide you
in its favor.
