TO- ThatWest Point is the best military
school in, the world is conceded by all
impartial critics. Its methods trans
form thetaverage raw youth into the

officer of oar army. lie is pre-eminent-
ly taught the habit of command"
which, as a, rule, he uses without any
OF the arrogance shown by officers of
some of the,armies of Europe, notably
that of Germany. He is made to realize
that he commands men who are as SEN

States army, without question or doubt,
the best trained and most capable gen.

President ROOSEVELT expresses his
satisfaction with the White House,
both as a residence and rs an q flee,

struction of the building. President

desire for sports of the "hazing' va
riety has been growing steadily in the
colleges and has even contaminated
the high schools of the country to no
small extent. A certain amount of
this "horse play is all right and
usually little of it goes long way.
Particularly is this the case with the
victims. When after the investiga-
ton into the case of Cadet Booze, it
was decided that "haziug" should be
stamped out of schools and college s
