Much interest is being shown at the present time in the examinations that are being held by the recruiting officers of the Pennsylvania National Guard in this city. The two companies that are being formed both lack a number of men, and if the desired recruits do not soon put in their appearance. Carbondale's last chance for a state armory will have fled, probably never to return for a long time. The officers of and compannes are planning upon ending the campaign next week. Any man physically and mentally fit and between the age of eighteen and forty five is acceptable.

Guard members have only one drill a week and are paid $1 for that. The term of enlistment is three years in the case of a member who has never seen active service. For veterans of the recent war the time is reduced to one yea. During this time, in all probability, he will be left undisturbed in civilian life except for the occasional drills that are sure to make him a better man for the qualities of discipline and obedience that he Is required to observe. If.

after next week, the number of enlisted men has not reached the required elevation, the armory that would be built by the stateland maintained for the amusement and convenience of the members and their friends, will be abandoned indefinitely.
