EFFICIENCY OF THE ARMY.

At the celebration in Washington of the
veterans Of the war of 1912, Gen. Sherman
responded to the toast to the army and navy,
saying that, as the most of those present were
old soldiers, they would understand that he
must speak as an old soldier. He had been
connected with the army since 1910. 1t was
not bis fortune to be in the war Of 1912. He
was born after they were commissioned off,
GERS, and yet he had reached the head of the
army of the United States which he had at
tanned by fair, square promotion and service
He was glad to assure the veterans that they
now have in the army as fine set Of young
men as perhaps they were, and nine tenths OF
them had seen service in the war of the re.

eight TO twenty battles. AT present the army

1t is thought in Fall River that should the

cheerfully went back to their professions as
il no war had occurred.
1t was predicted, during the late war, that
the country would be ruined by the military
when the war closed; that they would never
return to their former pursuits without much
rioting, robbery, etc. In fact, the whole ar
my, regular and volunteer, would be band
of thieves and robbers. But they had proved
that Americans can take up arms, and lay
them down when the war 10 over, with cheer
funess, and quietly resume their professions.
Thus it was at the close OF the war of 1912
and the Mexican war. We have proven that
when the necessity for the soldiers ceases
they can return to the civil walks of life and
make the best citizens OF this great Republic.
He could say that neither regular troops nor
volunteers are disturbers of the public peace,
but rather the guardians OF it, and he could
promise them the soldiers OF 1912 will not be
made to feel ashamed of the young men VINO
now are in the army or who may be called
into it. The young officers of the present
day are equal to any officers in the foreign
armies-a more brave, intelligent, trustwor'
thy Get could not be found. They should not
think that men have degenerated, for they
have not. and those ofthe present army would
compare favorably with those who were young
in 1912. As for the navy, they know with
