CIVIL SERVICE REOPENED TO DISCHARGED YANKS Under an opinion of the Attorne; General rendered to the Civil Servic Commission, United States soldiers sailors and marines who missed op portunity to enter service examina tions because of their military o naval service may now be given i chance to qualify for Government i employment. The Civil Service Commission,wish ing to give discharged service men i every opportunty to qualify for civil i positions, asked the Attorney Gen i eral for an opinion as to whether it i would be legal to open, for the benefit i of honorably discharged soldiers, sailors and marines, examinations which had been closed. The Attorney General having expressed the opinion that such action is legal in view of the spirit of a recent act of Congress which provides for preference in ap pointment to civil positions for dis charged soldiers, sailors and marines, the Civil Service Commission will open only to honorably discharged service men examinations which were pending on April 0, 1917, the date of America’s declaration ot war, or which were subsequently announced, and for which registers of eligibles ; now exist. Sixty days from August 1, 1919, will be allowed soldiers, sailors and marines in which to be examined for positions for which examinations have already been held if they were dis charged from the military or naval service prior to August 1, and sixty days from the date of their discharge will be allowed those discharged sub sequent to August 1, 1919. i - Getting Out of the Mud. A resourceful motorist whose car Inis teen stuck in the mud does not always have to fall back on a pair of mules to get free. For such an emergency the United States Tire Company offers some suggestions that have proved valuable. The first calls for having stored ^ away somewhere in the car a stack ^ of old newspapers. When the car ^ gets stuck and the wheels refuse tc | take hold, feed in some of the old ^ papers between the tire and the mud ^ Usually only a few will have to be worked in before the wheels will be gin to grip and the car start forward. This method of handling a difficult situation is so simple and so uni formly successful, that every motorist should know of it and carry a pile cr old newspapers, unless he is equipped with some other apparatus for such a contingency. Here is the other method suggested by the United States Tire Company: Put the car in low, and if you cannot feed the gas with your foot evenly, so~that the wheels will revolve slowly, put your emergency brake on. Do not put it on so that the wheels will not revolve at all, but tightly enough to keep them from revolving rapidly. With the wheels turning slowly, the maximum pull is delivered to them by having the car in low gear, and«o long as they turn slowly they can get the benefit of the tremendous power. It is not always wise to fill the hole with stones or bricks, for their rough edges are hard on tires. Small branches of trees are better, as they offer much better tractive space. Should this method fail, quite often a slight push that would not much more than move a baby buggy will furnish just the added amount of nowor necessarv to get the car going.
